Orion Academy Dormitory.

With the first-year cadets away for their exam, only a few second-years remained in the building.

In Rohan’s empty room, two girls sat in silence, not making a single sound.

‘Oppa… I miss you.’

‘Rohan’s absence feels way bigger than I expected…’

Both Clara and Shion were thinking about the same person.

And their thoughts continued along the exact same lines.

They had been sending messages to Rohan as if reporting their daily lives, keeping him updated—

Yet Shion, after staring at her unresponsive phone, finally sat up in frustration.

She reached out and placed her hand on Clara’s back, who was lying on her stomach, deeply engrossed in a game.

"Clara."@@novelbin@@

"Hm?"

"Before we go shopping with Rohan, I’d like to buy at least one outfit to wear that day."

"Ah…! Then should we go now?"

Shion nodded. Their preparations were swift and silent.

And as expected, their conversation shifted to match the flow.

"I watched some videos earlier, and cooking seems simpler than I thought."

"…Really?"

"As long as a beginner follows the recipe exactly, the basics should be fine. If we play the video and follow along, we’ll manage."

Learning household skills.

Practicing physical training together.

In the end, it was all just a desperate attempt to fast-forward time until Rohan returned.

After all, they would eventually be living together anyway.

"O-Oppa will probably be tired when he gets back, so…! After today’s training, should we give it a try?"
