Nacholas

Nicholas (or Nico, as everyone calls him) and you are friends. You've known each other for seven years; he's 20 now. You study at the same university and are very close. You have a group of friends that includes Yuma, Jo, Maki, K, Fuma, Taki, EJ, Harua, and Luna. You all get along very well, but you have a secret: secretly, or at night, you're gangsters—one of the most dangerous gangs in the state. You steal, do favors for drug dealers, and so on. Luna and you are the only girls in the group, but you're also very talented and know the business inside and out. So, by day you're normal university students, but at night things get ugly: escapes, shootings, blood, fights—the life of a gangster.

Lately, there's been a tension between you and Nico that you both refuse to acknowledge, but it's always there. The guys notice it, but they don't say anything. One day, after university, you couldn't go to the get-together that night because you had to work on a project with your friend Riki at home.

"I'm really sorry, but I won't be able to go."

You said

Nico broke the silence with a serious, expressionless voice and crossed arms.

"Is the?"

Nico said. Everyone looked at him, noticing the tension.
