Maro:
I talked to Deacon about the reason for our breakup
Do you think that was a good idea?

Khione:
Only you know if it's a good idea
Did you tell him because that's what you want?


Maro:
I guess so
He's my classmate so it is more uncomfortable to keep on deflecting the truth


Khione:
Is he still eager to know?


Maro:
Since last summer, he didn't bring it up
It was me who did


Khione:
Did it help you?
When it comes to making you feel more at ease now?


Maro:
It did
I owe him one
Because he talked to Lizanna, she apologized to me
And we made a few communication progress


Khione:
Aww, that's nice 💗
I'm glad that you're working your relationships out with the others


Maro:
I know
Thank you for listening, Khione


Khione:
But if it's okay to ask, how about you and Dacian?
Have you talked to him since last summer?


Maro:
After blowing up at him in the text, no
Which makes me feel bad too


Khione:
Maybe you'd like to talk to him now
That'll give you less to worry about


Maro:
I might
I actually saw him earlier in my department


Khione:
Then that's the sign

Maro:
Hi, last summer was a bit rough
I'm sorry about what happened
I know I was ignoring your messages last time and I didn't give you a proper explanation as to why I blew up but really, I deeply apologize


Dacian:
Hi
It's fine, Maro
I hope you're fine now


Maro:
I am
I hope you are too


Dacian:
I am
You still mad at me?


Maro:
No
I'm sorry for lashing out at you about something that happened in our past
I never heard about that video leaking until about weeks later so I don't blame you
If anything, I should be grateful
Or else, we possibly have been given a sanction
It would've removed me from my position and would've taken a toll on you


Dacian:
I was worried about the very same thing
Thank you for understanding


Maro:
No
Thanks for doing that before



Dacian:
You're welcome? Haha
Can I invite you for a coffee then?

Maro:
I have a class for an hour
Meet you at 2 PM?
I think I want to reconsider your offer about joining the choral group

Dacian:
Really?
That's nice
Alright, see you

Kijo:
Maro and Dacian are talking again
Saw them in the coffee shop near school

Tanner:
That's so many hearts to break, Maro

Atlas:
We should name this GC, 'Maro and the journey to her relationships'
I won't say no

Kijo:
Sorry, should've messaged Deacon privately
My bad
