Though the pain wasn't severe, his arms hurt from the bullying session that happened the previous day. It was irritating because he was constantly reminded of it whenever he raised his hand to grab something from the shelves or while moving his laptop around. 

Lying on the bed, he shifted, trying to find a comfortable position before he finally settled on lying on his back, resting either of his arms close to his body. 

For some reason he was reminded of the irritating Senpai from the other day.

What was his name again?

He felt restless again, once he remembered Asahi's name and face. 

They must be at some bar drinking, enjoying or whatever.

Akihiro had asked Nao to come along with him multiple times in the day but he was turned down without a second thought. However, once Hiro found out that a few others from the same year were joining the party, he had calmed down.

Why's the wolf pretending to be a sheep anyway?

Nao couldn't figure out what exactly was going on in Asahi's head but one thing he was quite sure of - the guy was fickle as hell. One day he comes out of nowhere and threatens him, bullies him and embarrass the hell out of him and the next, he suddenly acts all nice.

A Bully. A Hypocrite. 

The kind of people Nao hated the most. 

All riled up, he decided to go for a round of blitz chess online. 

And lost.

Again. 

And then again.

In sometime, he tossed his phone aside and fell asleep.
