A noise interrupted your thoughts, pulling you back to reality.
Knock—knock.
You quickly made your way to the door, opening it to peek at who it was.
Hu Tao and Yoimiya stood outside.
“Hey,” Hu Tao greeted, leaning heavily on Yoimiya. She looked exhausted—hair slightly messy, expression half-dead. Her fingers pressed against her temples, probably from a hangover.
“Take her back,” Yoimiya sighed as you stepped aside, letting them in.

They made their way to the living room, Hu Tao practically collapsing onto the couch. Yoimiya sat beside her, stretching her arms.
“I’m never doing that again,” Hu Tao groaned.
“You say that every time,” Yoimiya replied.
“I thought you’d be home early?” you asked, your tone slightly firm.
“I know, I know,” Hu Tao said, waving you off. “I didn’t realize how late it got.”
“Or you just decided to knock yourself out,” Yoimiya added with a knowing smirk.
Hu Tao snapped her head toward her, shooting her a glare.
“Fucking snitch,” she muttered under her breath.
Yoimiya laughed.
You sighed.
“Stay here,” you said firmly.

You headed to the kitchen, grabbing a bottle of water from the fridge and pouring some into a glass.
When you returned, the two of them were already talking quietly.
You handed the glass to Hu Tao.
“Here. Drink,” you said, your tone firm—but laced with concern.
“I had a feeling you wouldn’t come home early,” you continued, crossing your arms.
“But not coming home at all? What were you thinking?” you added.
“I’m sorry, okayyy?” Hu Tao whined, sounding slightly annoyed. “Yoimiya was with me, so you didn’t really have to worry,” she added defensively, finishing the glass.
Yoimiya let out a small laugh, patting Hu Tao’s back. “Well, yeah… thankfully I didn’t drink that much last night,” Yoimiya said.
You hummed softly.
“How bad is that hangover of yours?” you asked, your tone softening despite yourself.
“Really bad,” Hu Tao whined.
“Alright, I’ll get you some ibuprofen,” you said, turning away.
When you returned, you handed her the medicine and sat down beside her.
The two of them started talking, filling you in on everything that happened at the party.

Ping—
A notification lit up your phone.
You ignored it.
Ping—
Another one.

Hu Tao squinted at you.
“Who’s texting you?” she asked.
You froze slightly.
“…no one,” you replied.
“You usually never get notifications unless it’s the group chat,” Yoimiya pointed out.
You shook your head quickly.
“It’s nothing,” you said.
“Mhm,” Hu Tao hummed.
You stood up.
“Where are you going?” Hu Tao asked.
“My room. I’ll be back,” you replied, already walking away.
“You’re acting weird,” Hu Tao muttered.
“Don’t disappear,” Yoimiya added.
٠࣪⭑---
You entered your room, closing the door behind you.
You reached for your phone.
٠࣪⭑---
A notification from Discord.
