Idate was on a casual stroll when he suddenly spotted a familiar figure up ahead. It was Gris. Idate's expression immediately darkened as he let out a frustrated sigh, hoping that Gris hadn't seen him. Unfortunately, Gris did notice Idate, and started approaching him excitedly.

Idate quickly tried to hide his displeasure behind a fake smile, but it didn't fully hide the discomfort he felt in Gris' presence.

"Hey, Gris," Idate said, forcing himself to sound somewhat cheerful.
