Hearing Mizuki's straightforward question made the atmosphere immediately awkward as the boy's smile started twitching. Rei coughed, breaking the awkward atmosphere, and asked in a more proper way, "Who might this be, Keiko?"
"Ah, yes, this is Yoru. He also paints. I met him a few times in competitions and our displays coincidentally happen to be next to each other." Introducing the boy.
"Hello, my name is Yoru." The boy introduced himself, stretching out his hand in an arrogant manner.
Mizuki ignored his attempt to handshake and looked at Keiko before saying, "So show us your work." Dragging her towards her display area.
Rei wryly smiled as he introduced himself without shaking his hand too, "Hello, I am Rei." Before following Mizuki and Keiko towards. Rei didn't want much to do with him.
