"Ren, stop hiding. If you keep hiding, we'll really get angry, okay?"
"A-Ren, come out already. We absolutely won't let you go again."
"Has Ren-chan already found someone new? That's not okay. We're going to be together forever, remember? Didn't we promise?"
At that moment, Yuki Ren was hiding in a closet.
As the footsteps drew closer, her heart beat faster and faster. Her palms and forehead were slick with sweat.
They were her best friends' voices, and yet now they sent a chill down her spine.
Through the closet door, she heard the footsteps gradually recede.
Maybe she could relax a little now?
She should use this chance to make a run for it!
Ren quietly opened the closet without making a sound.
But before she could get out, the sight before her froze her in place.
"Oh my, found you."
"Time for being a naughty girl is over~"
"Now, let's make you a good girl."
Her three best friends stood right in front of the closet, their expressions strange as they quietly waited for their prey to come out on its own.
"We won't let you escape again."
The three of them said in unison.
Oh, no.
That was Yuki Ren's final thought as they prepared to bundle her up and carry her away.
