"That's the first time I see Shin getting angry for real," Zein muttered on their way home.
It was always unnerving to see someone like Han Shin, who was always grinning cheekily or pouting childishly, giving them a cold look.

"I see..."
"He stopped talking, not just to either of them. He didn't even talk to me and Reina."
"Even Reina?"
