words—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one could completely deny it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because admiration naturally gave birth to curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And curiosity...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes quietly changed into affection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then affection slowly, quietly, transformed into something deeper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Love rarely arrived with thunder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the time, it entered silently, unnoticed even by the person feeling it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias blinked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then looked toward the girls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then toward Selena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then toward herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She suddenly felt strangely unhappy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crossing her arms, she turned away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Selena simply watched everything quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her silver-blue eyes remained fixed on the golden entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unlike before, her thoughts were no longer calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because she was aware.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aware of something she had been avoiding for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her feelings toward Leon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first it had only been gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then dependence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then somewhere along the way...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without her noticing when—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something had changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She remembered his calm smile, the way he stood in front of danger without hesitation, the way he taught her patiently, guided her, protected her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her fingers unconsciously tightened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint ripple appeared in her usually calm eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon

become awkward?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would the bond between Teacher and student change?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would she lose even the place beside him that she had now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Selena lowered her eyes slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t want that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if those emotions inside her heart had begun growing stronger day by day, she didn’t want to destroy what they already had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She slowly took a deep breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No,
