"Yes Sha.. Mostly drink cola.. Hehe.."

"Thus you want to see the professor, right? Professor must be at YS hospital.. I'll be anterin ya later," said Shasha volunteered.

"I don't want to leave you alone Ren.. You are still afraid when you see the hospital.. How can I let you enter there yourself.. You are not alone, Ren.. There I'm okay.."

Irene realized the difficulty and finally collapsed with Shasha's offer to accompany her.

It's a shabbiness, not just Shasha. Kevin also drove Irene.

"Hey.. What the fuck are you wearing clothes items already like a bodyguard," said Irene closed her eyes because she was not comfortable with the behavior of her two friends.
