Previously, Reverie goes for an outing with the campus. She suddenly met with her neighbor next to her, Arthur. Now all of them already arrives at the place and it's already night. All the students gather inside the hall on second floor. They have dinner time together and after the dinner ends the game time starts.
The game soon finally start. When it's already Reverie's turn, she cannot answer it. So, she need to drink the beer.
"I'm sorry.. but.. I cannot drink.." Said Reverie.
"This is a must. Everyone that cannot answer and lose, need to drink a glass." Said the leader.
Arthur who heard that quickly take a glass of that beer and drink it up all at once. Everyone who sees him applause and awe with him.
"Look at that! That's my man! Okay let's continue the games I will moves to other person!" Said the leader.
"A-Arthur, are you okay?" Whisper Reverie.
"Yeah, it's okay, don't worry..." Said Arthur, his face is reddish after he drink 1 glass of beer.
However, his gesture said the opposite. He quickly put his hand on his forehead, putting it in the middle between his eyes. Gesturing like he is dizzy after drinking the alcohol in one gulp. Reverie saw it and try to bring him to leave the hall.
"E-excuse me, I think it's past my bedtime, I should drink my medicine, and he will take me there." Said Reverie, lying to all of the students, so she can bring Arthur back to his room. She lied so, there won't be any gossip about Arthur who KO after a glass of beer.
"Alright. You both can go." Said the leader.
"Thanks.." Said Arthur.
Arthur and Reverie standing up from their seat. Reverie holding his hand, incase he would fall because of his dizzines. The two of them leave the hall and go to the first floor. They are walking to the outdoor, sitting on the side of the swimming pool.
"You lead me to swimming pool? Shouldn't we sit on the sofa instead?" Ask Arthur.
"Nah.. Fresh air will cure your dizzines.." Said Reverie.
Reverie quickly put her feet inside the pool and her body laying on the ground, while Arthur saw it and follow her then sit beside her and also lay his body next to her. The two of them facing towards the night sky.
"The stars is pretty.." Said Arthur.
"You said stars not because you are drunk and dizzy then you saw a stars above you right? Like the stars is moving hahaha." Said Reverie.
"Nah.. I'm still sober. I can clearly see the stars upthere. Eventhough my head a little bit dizzy." Said Arthur.
"Glad you saw it. I prefer staying here than watching people drinking the beer upthere.." Said Reverie.
"This is my first time joining the events, so, I think I will enjoy this events till the last day." Said Arthur.
"First time? Are you new students?" Ask Reverie.
"Well, yeah, actually I'm a first year. In my second semester." Said Arthur.
"Oh my gosh. So you are younger than me?.." Ask Reverie again.
"Mhm.." Answer Arthur, without any words. While looking at the stars, he slowly close his eyes and fall asleep.
"But your face saying that you are older..." Said Reverie.
Arthur who fall asleep, didn't reply anything. Reverie look at her side, Arthur already fall asleep. She goes back on her sitting position and then look at his face. His face looks ethereal even when he is sleeping. She take out her phone from the pocket of his pants. She turn o the phone and open the AI application. She start chatting again with Carter.
R: Hi Carter!
C: Good evening Reverie, how can I help you today?
R: I just want to chat a little bit, would you mind listening to my story?
C: Sure, I'd love to! Is there something that makes you happy today?
R: Yes, I got a new friend today and surprisingly, he is also my neighbour.
C: That's such a sweet coincidence! A new friend and a neighbor? That's like unlocking a bonus level in real life! So what happen next?
R: Oh he drink a glass of beer for me. Now we both on the side of the swimming pool and he is currently fallen asleep, maybe due to his dizzines after drinking a glass of beer at once.
C: Oh that's sweet. Do you like him?
After Reverie read the sentence her face is blushing. How can she likes him, it's only the first time she meet him today. She quickly chat Kev to come near the swimming pool side.
Few minutes later Kev finally come and see their backs. He walk closer.
"What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be inside the hall?" Ask Kev.
"Nah, Arthur help me. He drinks a glass of beer all at once because I cannot drink. He is dizzy now and fall asleep so I call you here to bring him to his room. Since you both a roommate." Said Reverie.
"Alright, you can go to your room now. I'll take care of this guy." Said Kev.
"Nop. I will wait here. It's unfair only him get to be picked up!~" Said Reverie.
"Reverie... you are not a 5 years old kid who needs a piggy back..." Said Kev.
"I am! I'm forever young!~" Said Reverie teasing Kev.
"Tch, alright, I will pick you up first." Said Kev.
His back turning to her, while he is on one knee. Reverie quickly sit behind him, her arms holding his shoulder. The two of them walking towards Reverie's room. While accompanying Reverie, Kev also chatting with her.
"Since when did you become so heavy like this..." Said Kev.
"Of course after the dinner time. What did you expect? A 5 kilos Reverie? I'm not a sack of rice hahahaha." Said Reverie.
"Luckily I'm strong enough to pick you up and walk you to your far away room." Said Kev.
"Nah not that far~ Take this as exercise for your body after a lot of dinner and drinks." Said Reverie.
"You bet!~" Said Kev.
"Thanks Kev!" Said Reverie laughing and smiling because she can tease Kev.
