As I slid on a white shirt,I stared at the clock on the table next to me, I placed my old clothes onto the washing machine while hanging my towel onto one of the tower bars.
I guess I should make the report now? I won't know when the next time I'll be alone is, I just need to be sil-
"Zaire are you done? Sorry, my friend needs to use the bathroom!"
….silent.
"Im almost done, give me 9 minutes"
I heard a loud groan, it doesn't seem to be the hero's voice so it has to be hero comrade number 2. Anyway..
"Report on the hero.. he has arrived into the dorm and he made it late to the principal's address, currently his strength seems to be around.. level D? I'll do further reports later on"
I tapped onto the side of the clock, transmitting the message before offing it when I realised a problem.
I didn't bring my jacket with me, isn't this a splendid problem, how should I hide this clock?I guess I could hide it in the pocket as long as I untuck my shirt.

As Azreal rushed into the bathroom, Zaire stepped out. The only thing he could think of is.. "damn this is messy" Zaire stared on the ground, where multiple underwear, tank tops, shirts and pants were on the floor, with only the school uniform not on the floor, instead of being positioned on Kevin's bed.
Kevin looked back and his eyes met Zaire, feeling awkward as they were in the beginnings of starting in a starring contest..
:" haha sorry, Azreal had a very bad stomach ache and if he didn't head to a bathroom he would've…."
"Please don't elaborate"
. . .
"Well.. isn't this awkward.. when the principal said my roommate was strange.. I thought she was joking. He just.. stares at me.."
Kevin thought to himself before continueing to pack his stuff into his closet
Meanwhile…
"Did I just.. shut down his attempt to communicate with me?" Zaire wondered to himself. Though he has been put into infiltration missions before, it was only once and according to them, it ended badly. Not only that after leaving his parents he never had much experience talking with people, he'd either sit in base, or kill things. "Small talk.. yes.. start small talk" he thought to himself

Kevin's pov
Please Azreal come back!
This is so awkward!
Though I had buried myself in opening my boxes, I still felt his stare. Is 5is his hobby? Is this what she meant by being interesting? He just stares at people? His stare sends a shiver down my spine..
"Do you.. do this often?"
"..."
Was that his attempt at small talk?
"… no?"
"…"
He just continued to stare at me
Man, what is this bullf*ckery?
"Do you enjoy swordsmanship?"
Upon hearing that question, I turned my head to him, meeting his gaze.
"Swordsmanship..? Yea I enjoy it, I prefer anything that gets me to be physically active, how about you?"
"I like… sleeping"
Wow, that's a hobby.
Wait how did he find out about my swordsmanship?my swords still in my bag?
Nevermind
Then, my savior came
"Hey guys I'm back, sorry for taking so long. Azreal said as he opened the door before shutting it immediately.
He then walked up to Zaire, extending his hand
Wait, what is he doing?
Sure maybe my roommate's strange but you don't have to punch-
"My name is Azreal, nice to meet you"
"Zaire" he said as he accepted the handshake
It seems I overthought it.
We then packed our stuff in complete silence with Zaire wearing headphones that he seemed to get out of nowhere and using his phone while quietly staring at us. After that, I got out immediately.
