The Underground Path and Door

"I also like seeing Ariel happy!" Shouted Lydia who had been standing next to Serena 

Everyone's attention then turned to Lydia, causing her to feel embarrassed. 

"Ah... W-What did I do... I haven't even been here for long..." Lydia muttered to herself before trying to hide her face 

John then burst out laughing as he said. 

"Pff- Sorry L-Lydia, Y-You too." 

John struggled to hold back his laugh despite knowing how rude it was. He tried stopping himself, but he couldn't. It was as if all his stress was slowly leaving through the laugh. It was the most relieving one. 

"Oi, John, that's rude." Said Serena as she stared daggers at him. 

Lydia was bright red from embarrassment due to John's reaction and John felt bad for it. 

"Sorry..." He muttered as he hung his head 

Ariel couldn't help but smile along with Serena after seeing John acting immature, for them, it suited him.
