Umeji never really cared much for others, much less those idiots from his school. But seeing a new girl getting bullied by the same group of girls that bullied him before stung, yet he did nothing.

Why would he care anyway?

But he never expected you to stand up to them, to do what he never had the courage to do back then, from that day on, he grew some respect for you, but he'd never show it considering he must keep up his 'delinquent' act. Although he'd tell off a bully or two when they're looking for you, which made you want to become his friend, or at least, acquaintance.

So to find the same girl at a convenient store late at night, in her sleepwear while he was also wearing some sweatpants and a hoodie?

Such a change from the usual school status they're used to seeing from each other.

He quickly paid and tried to avoid any attention, considering he just wanted to go home and lay in his bed, sleeping till the morning.

That was until, she called out to him.
