Atsushi was still feeling awkward but when tanizaki who was a stranger moments ago now his friend, offered to show him around the school he was really happy and surprised, he thought that tanizaki could show him where the Dean's office is.

This is perfect! a solution who actually showed itself, atsushi thought before i was really worrying about how to go to the dean's office, but too bad this friendship isn't going to last i finally have a friend too but if i talk to the dean and confirmed that my admittance into this school was just a stupid mistake we would be apart and i can only see him in storybooks. Atsushi was feeling guilty but he is still going to go through with his original plan and that plan is to get the heck outta here.

Since Tanizaki san said he could show me around could you first show me where the dean's office is, atsushi said.

It's to get your schedule right? then i'll show you the way, tanizaki gestured for atsushi to follow him,

Then you lead and i follow, atsushi said while showing him a small smile.

Smiling really does suit you, tanizaki said while looking dazed.

Atsushi didn't say anything but deep inside he was really happy this was the first time somebody complimented him but he didn't let this show on his face he was silent and just followed tanizaki.

After walking and turning to who knows how many corners atsushi and his newfound friend arrived at an elegantly designed white door with a sign hanging that read the Dean's Office in an also elegant script. It's really big! it's so big that i don't know where's left and right anymore, reading about it in a storybook it does not seem so bad but now that i'm experiencing this for myself i can only say this it's so unreasonably big!atsushi thought.

We are here at your destination sir, tanzaki said sounding like an experienced tour guide, tanizaki gestured at the door.

Atsushi moved to stand to the front of the door, atsushi at first stared at the door for a few minutes, seeing his friend not moving and reacting tanizaki nudged him gently at the side, atsushi woke up from his trance and as if remembering something atsushi stared to react he knocked at the door softly, it was a knock that was so small and silent that whoever was inside wouldn't hear it.

Atsushi was feeling nervous, this was his first time meeting a person from the Tale of Sophie and Agatha and what's more the other person is a dean, even though she was not a character that everyone would surely remember but she was still one of the main casts, she played a huge role, without her Good's happily ever after might not be as good as the current one.

Are you feeling nervous? wait... I'm sorry for asking you such a stupid question, you are nervous, tanizaki said with a tone of certainty but he also has concern and worry lacing his tone, and you might want to knock a little louder than that, even a fly couldn't hear that knock.

Atsushi nodded his head and said, a little bit because this is my first time meeting a dean, an important person... and quite possibly the last. atsushi thought that bitterly

Don't worry and don't be nervous either, she's a dean not a monster she won't bite and our dean is good remember, tanizaki said.

But still...atsushi didn't continue what he's gonna say and just obediently knocked the door, louder this time.
