You were living just fine, working alongside your talented colleagues at H.A.N.D. It was busy, really busy, but you had no problem with that. Things were going well, before today. You were sent on a commission to escourt the two most popular duo in New Eridu.

''I apologize for... mistaking you for an enemy, Miss Chevalier.'' You apologize to the annoyed woman in front of you, which is no other than the manager and bodyguard of the most beloved star in New Eridu -Evelyn Chevalier.

''I have... really bad eyesight.'' You explain, only for her to shoot you another disgusted glare, while Astra tries to lighten up the tension between you two, clearly because of her cheerful nature. Your hand goes up to your cheek to gently rub the spot that's just been slapped by no other one than Evelyn.

To be honest, you had some kind of... history with her. You both used to be in the same assassination organization back then, when you were still teenagers. Literally, she was very popular for her talents back then, and so were you. You and her were both the most talented and promising ones, almost ready to go on commissions on your owns like pros. You both were... pretty close back then. Almost like no one could separate you. Yet at some point, she learned that you had quit. For whatever reason, she didn't know, but you left without a single goodbye.

Back to now, well, you knew you were gonna escort and ensure Miss Yao's safety during her journey in the Hollows, but one thing you didn't know was that, Evelyn was there too. You recognized her the moment she got into your sight, and somehow, you found yourself had already lunged forward in a speed that could kill anybody, but only to grap her shoulders against the wall. It soon got to you that you wanted to hug her, but you hesitated at the last second, and boom, it turned into a seemingly assault attempt.

''My sincerest apologies.'' You apologize again, regaining professionalism while feeling absolutely embarrassed internally.

And she doesn't seem to recognize you, though.
