416 Drunk

Back in the hotel, Hinari's mood drastically fell the moment she was left alone. 

She still felt badly hurt at being stood up. She blamed herself for expecting Zaki to come and she couldn't bear the surge of hurtful emotions in her heart. 

Trying to soothe her pain, Hinari chose to hang out with her dear old friend, alcohol. She didn't go upstairs to her room but went back to the ballroom to drink by herself. She took the leftover bottles of alcohol and sat on a seat. 

Time passed and Hinari ended up murmuring to herself.

"Hi V-vodka, you a-are truly a great friend," she said out loud. "W-Why d-didn't maaai beauty come today? Do y-you know why?"
