Being Rei’s junior, you’d expect him to be a respectable role model, a shoulder for you to lean on. Though, you couldn’t have been more mistaken if you had even tried.

Finding yourself receiving a beating from Rei, you collapsed against the wall and looked up at him as if there was even a slither of hope of him giving you mercy.

It was a stupid thing to even ponder. He had none to spare for you.

Rather, he just gave you a smile— a stupid, slick smile, as if he was enjoying hurting you and your gentle pride this way, and delivered another harsh kick to your face.
