Under the fading hues of the twilight sky, Hikari and Nozomi stood on the bustling train platform surrounded by throngs of people and the rumble of the arriving train. Tails twitching with a mix of irritation, they spotted Du, stranded amidst the pandemonium, an easy-going smirk playing on his lips.
"Hey, look!" Hikari remarked to her sister, her golden eyes narrowing at Du, her voice carrying faint notes of teasing. "Our 'reliable Sensei' seems lost like a baby." She played with her earring, a small smug smile curled onto her lips.
Nozomi burst into laughter, her twin-tails bouncing with the rhythm of her giggles. "Oh, what's this? Did Sensei miss his train again?" She snickered, sending Hikari a meaningful look. "Or perhaps... Sensei got distracted by the pretty girls on platform 9?" She added arrogantly, before covering her mouth to suppress another bout of laughter.
Hikari rolled her eyes, "Nozomi... Let's get this over with." With that, the girls began to walk towards Du, their black school shoes clicking against the concrete. Meanwhile, Nozomi was still sniggering and shaking her head at Du's supposed predicament. Their tails swayed with a life of its own, matching the rhythm of their mischief-laden steps.
