When Trisha woke up in the morning she hurried to get her things together and came to college to take a shower. Like Yuki, although the apartment was slightly bigger, she only had a half bath. Even if she was an Evergreen, they would only rent a cheap apartment for her, and even if she was given a large sum to live off of, she was restricted to this apartment as a rule. She was not allowed to live a life of luxury like her brothers and sisters. She had no servants, nor did she have any guards. She was alone in this world. With only the money and apartment she gets in from the royal family, and this was just to keep face. It would be different if she had the full abilities of a normal Evergreen child, but unfortunately, this was her life.

Trisha stood there and looked at the shower door. She took a deep breath and came to a firm decision. She quickly pulled a notepad out of her bag and tore off a piece of paper. She then wrote a small note and folded it up. She then hurriedly undressed and rushed into the shower room. She could not let Yuki leave before her.

Yuki, on the other hand, was taking her time in the shower. She felt a little bad since she had been rude to Trisha earlier for no reason. It was only after the fact that she realized this fact. Sighing, Yuki used the shower wall to support herself as she stood there with the water spraying down on her head. "Well… I guess what's done is done. I guess in real life, I am just too on guard from everyone."

Yuki heard the shower room door open, and shortly after, the shower next to hers turned on. Yuki knew it was Trisha, but she did not say anything. She only stood there, letting the water run over her white skin. After washing up, Yuki wrapped a towel around her and left the shower room. After drying off and getting dressed, Yuki turned to leave when the shower room door slammed open.

Yuki turned in surprise to see a dripping wet, completely naked Princess standing there with a look of determination in her eyes. Yuki had to admit Trisha was very beautiful from head to toe. There was not a single flaw on her skin.

"Wait! Yuki!" Trisha called out.

Yuki sighed and asked: "Is there something, Princess?" Once again, she could not seem to act friendly.

Trisha ignored the slight attitude and walked over to her bag, leaving a trail of water that dripped off her body. She took out the note she wrote earlier and pushed it into Yuki's hands. "Yuki, I know I normally act very rudely to people. So I can understand why you are rude to me, but whether you accept my apology or not, I want you to know I am being sincere when I apologized earlier. I am not all that good with words, so please read the note."

Yuki looked at the note in her hand and then at the dripping wet Princess's eyes that were showing no hint of lying and were very sincere. Feeling a bit helpless. Yuki took out her damp towel and draped it over Trisha's shoulders. "It's not good to be standing around out here naked when it's this cold. I heard what you had to say. I will read your note later. For now, go dry off. You can return the towel to me some other time."

Yuki then picked up her things and packed them away. Only after balling up her hair and sticking her hat and mask back on did she head towards the exit. She raised her right hand, giving a slight wave as she did.

Trisha stood there, slightly stunned at the turn of events. She watched as Yuki walked away and out of sight. It was only then that she clinched the towel that was wrapped around her shoulders and smiled slightly. "Maybe we can be friends… But… Why did she give me her wet towel?" Trisha chuckled softly to herself as she clenched the towel tighter to her body. "She is strange..."

Yuki went to her first class and sat in her normal seat in the upper back. Since no one else was around, Yuki took out the note and began reading it. "Yuki, I want to once again apologize for being rude to you that day. As someone who is part of the royal family, I am obligated to put on this haughty attitude and act like a royal even if I am an outcast. If I do not keep up the royal image, I could lose everything I have. I need the money and apartment the royal family gives me in order to survive. Only when I can stand on my own two feet will I be able to finally act like my true self.

"Because of my connection to the royal family, others see me as a ticket to get closer to my brothers and sisters. These so called fake friends float around me, acting friendly while behind my back they talk badly about me. I don't want friends like that. I want someone who will see me for me. As you are the only one who does not kiss up to me, I can't help but want to be friends with you. Although this seems a little one sided on my behalf and very selfish. I hope you will be willing to be friends with me. If you are willing to be my friend, please meet me in the shower room again tomorrow at the same time as today. It might seem like a strange place to meet, but at least there we can talk without others interrupting.

"If by chance you decided to want nothing to do with me, I will also understand and will no longer bother you anymore. It's enough to know you were willing to read my letter…. Also… I do not know what happened, but anyone who hits a pretty girl like you, Yuki, needs to be beaten up…."

Yuki folded the paper back up and stuck it into her bag. She laid her head down on her desk and fell into deep thought. "I guess I could..." Yuki mumbled to herself.

The next hour was peaceful as Yuki rested her head on the table. She did not notice Trisha sitting in her normal seat, glancing over at her every so often. By this time, Trisha was already surrounded by her usual posse.

*Bam!*

"Hey, little shit. You can't sit here." The same young man from the other day stood over Yuki with an arrogant expression on his face after kicking Yuki's chair. Trisha, who saw this wanted to get up and say something because she knew Yuki was hurt right now, but when she saw Yuki raise her head and make eye contact with her, she felt a similarity in her eyes that was very familiar to her, that stopped her from saying anything.

Yuki did make eye contact with Trisha mainly because she knew that since Trisha wanted to be her friend, she would try to stick up for her, but Yuki did not want this. Since this young man wanted to cause her trouble, she would make sure he understands the consequences. She was no longer going to hold back against these kinds of people. She hesitated before and look what happened. Seeing Yuki raise her head and the battered face she had, Derek began laughing and pointing. "Haha, looks like you got your ass kicked! Good! Good! If you do not want to prolong the healing of your face, I advise you to scram."

"Do you not learn?" Yuki asked, her voice cold.

"Huh? Learn what?" Derek was confused by Yuki's words, but instead of getting a verbal answer, he suddenly felt his head slam off something hard, and everything went dark.
