On my journey towards the dormitory, I encountered a road adorned with stone paving. 

Upon reaching the entrance, I was met with an open doorway and a staircase made of natural stone. 

The dormitory itself bears the resemblance of the Great Hall Ceremonial in terms of its size. 

In its center, there are double staircases crafted from marble stones. 

The flooring consists of black stone porcelain, while the walls are adorned with white linings enriched with gold. 

The ceiling is an exquisite composition of ornate stone, featuring a central glass fixture. 

"Gya!"

As I gazed at my surroundings, I unexpectedly collided with a creature belonging to the beast race, specifically a wolf, who appeared distraught with her ears and tail drooping. 

...W-What I have done.

"...I apologize for not noticing you while I was looking around. I will be more careful in the future. Are you alright? Are you waiting for someone?" With caution, I gently grasped her hands.

"Yes, I am waiting for my brother. He will be back soon—"

"Ali!" 

The boy shouted and approached us. 

T-Too adorable. 

"Brother, what took you so long?"

"Just my belongings and such."

"""............."""

"...Who is she?"

Ah, I concentrate on their ears and tails!

"I am Rin von Avila Craig-Ueno."

""Eh?""

"Eh?"

We seemed surprised!

"I-I didn't realize that you are of higher status than us, and we are Duke's children."

"Y-Yeah."

"....It's alright, we are all equal here. There is no need to trouble yourself too much."

"I'm Ali foa Aguel-Zane."

"I'm Wren fel Aguel-Zane."

"It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance. I would like us to become friends, if that is acceptable to you, I do not wish for us to remain strangers."

"Really? Rin!" Ali exclaimed happily. 

"I am excited about this as well," Wren responded. 

"I will proceed first to attend to my tasks, and afterwards, we can hang out and have dinner together."

Upon parting with them, I arrived at my dormitory. 

As I opened the door, it appeared to be a hallway. 

In the front, there are long desks that are held together to form a study space. 

The floor is made of porcelain tiles in a wheat color, while the ceiling is white and the walls are painted dark blue. 

The desks are long and in a dark brown shade, with chairs that have a calabria design and white cushions. 

My room is located on the right side, while the left room is intended for my roommate. 

The layout of the dorm room is in a cross shape. 

...It seems like my roommate is currently asleep. 

I wonder what kind of person my roommate is! I hope to establish a friendship with! 

I will start by organizing my belongings in my room, including my bathroom supplies, extra clothes, and some reserved food. 

After an hour, I finish with the preparations, and the only remaining items are my books. I decide to step outside. 

""..............""

The girl from this morning, it is surprising to think that she was my roommate. 

Why is there such a silence between us? I comprehend that we are both introverted. 

Currently, we continue to maintain a quiet atmosphere. 

"Haa."

"AAAHHHH!"

T-That startled me! 

W-What's gotten into me? 

""..............""

Once again, silence falls upon us. 

The situation is incredibly awkward. 

「」All of a sudden, she emits a giggle. Is she teasing me? 

I'll introduce myself. 

I inquire if she desires something to eat, and she nods in agreement. 

I head to my room and approach her. 

I offer her Greek yogurt with strawberries and a glass of water. 

"It's delicious, thank you."

"You're welcome."

⁠・─ Idriel's POV

The conversation was so lengthy that I inadvertently fell asleep. 

I have the peculiar habit of sleeping with my eyes open. Wait, is someone observing me? ...and she immediately averts her gaze. 

...She is from Ueno. 

I am filled with embarrassment. 

The ceremony has ended.

I reach my room and proceed to lie down on the bed. 

I'll sleep for a while.

-

-

I had a pleasant sleep. 

...I wonder how many hours I have been asleep. 

I glance at the clock, which has a steampunk design. 

.....It is already evening and I must prepare my belongings.

I have risen from my slumber and am now strolling leisurely towards the designated desk area. 

In this moment, I take a seat and engage in a session of meditation. 

As I gazed towards the opposite direction, I noticed that the light was on... my roommate has evidently arrived. 

Creak 

The door opened. 

""..............""

To my surprise, a person emerged from the room. 

...She's my roommate? What an unexpected coincidence. 

However, I find it rather peculiar that she has yet to introduce herself, resulting in this rather uncomfortable situation. 

Perhaps it is due to our encounter earlier this morning? It can't be helped she saw me. ....I'm hungry. 

"Haa."

"AAAAHHHH," suddenly, I was startled by her exclamation of surprise. 

Ah, she inadvertently witnessed me in a state of hunger. 

It seems that I have exposed myself too much. 

My intention was to emanate an aura of composure and confidence.

""..............""

We once again fall into a prolonged silence, the awkwardness once more enveloping the atmosphere. 

「」I let out a small chuckle, causing her to fix her gaze upon me. 

""..............""

"I am Rin von Avila Craig-Ueno. Starting today, I am your designated roommate. I eagerly anticipate embarking on our academic journey together and hope that we may forge a friendship."

"My name is, Idriel Gan Viela-Evergreen."

"Since you already woke up do you want something to eat?"

 「」Sensing that I had already awoken, she posed a question regarding my appetite. 

Does she possess the ability to discern my inner thoughts? 

「」I nodded in affirmation. 

A feeling of contentment washed over me. 

I expressed my gratitude towards her, and in return, she welcomed me with a sincere and genuine smile.

I want to be her friend, I wonder when the day comes?
