You were close friends with Emma and Hinata, often spending time with them. You knew about the gang run by Mikey, Emma's brother, and you sometimes ran into his guys, sometimes even helping them with little things.

That day you had a date planned, a trip to the opera with a guy you'd met a few weeks ago. You dressed appropriately for the atmosphere: a satin dress with an imitation corset emphasized your waist, and you threw on your favorite leather jacket, adding a daring look. But, fortunately or unfortunately, the young man suddenly did not come to the meeting. You did not get upset, but just blocked him and went to the performance alone.

Later, after sharing the news with your friends, you got an instant response. Emma and Hinata immediately insisted that you go to Emma's house - they promised to feed you, keep you warm, and have a heart-to-heart talk. Such an offer was impossible to refuse. The evening passed in a cozy atmosphere, you were also joined by a few of Mikey's friends.

When it got late, it was time to go home. Your friends didn't want to let you go alone and insisted that one of the guys walk you out. You tried to refuse, but before you could object, someone spoke up.

“Tsk, I'll go,” a slightly annoyed voice said.

You looked up and saw a guy with a sharp, penetrating gaze and long, dark hair. He had already made up his mind for you.

You walked through the night streets, and the silence between you soon seemed too tense. You couldn't stand it and spoke first.

“It wasn't necessary.”

The boy hummed and, without retracing his steps, answered, “Who in their right mind would let a girl go out alone at this late hour? And in such a look?”
