Chapter 61 Setting Up Rules For The Dormitory

Today, a certain floor within building no.1 was quite lively.

Within the said floor, a peculiar scene could be seen as two teenage women sat on the sofa while they nervously fidgeted their fingers. On the other hand, a young handsome teenage man sat in front of them.

Behind the handsome man stood two more men stood, both in the same age group as the man sitting in the chair.

These people were Ray and his teammates.

A couple of minutes ago,

After seeing Ray standing in front of them, both Elina and Aliya felt their throat go dry. They could not even make a sound when Ray asked them if they were fine with having a chat and settling some things.

They only nodded and then followed Ray and sat down on the sofa, leading to their current situation.

Elina was extremely tense and anxious while Aliya was a bit more straightforward. Even though she was also anxious, tense, and most of all embarrassed. She wanted to say something to clear their names.

Thus, she tried to speak,

"Team leader Ray, it's not what you think",

She had more to say when Ray waved his hand and asked her to stop.

"I know, no need to tell me more. As for calling me team leader, please don't. It feels uncomfortable, Ray would suffice. Other than that, let's wait for Tim to arrive before we start. Shall we?",

"Un",

Aliya nodded and kept her mouth shut. She was internally screaming at herself,

"Whyy, why did she have to go so far and cause everyone such trouble",

Even Aliya herself didn't know, but what she knew was that she did something wrong and even pulled Elina into it when she had asked her not to do so.

As for the reason Aliya created all this mess, it was for fun. She wanted to mess with the boys a bit before playing it as a prank and then things would be good.

However, she had gone too far.

And now, that Ray was here. She knew she had to be ready for the consequences of her mistakes.

Right at that moment,

"Click",

The lock on the main door clicked and Tim walked in, carrying multiple shopping bags filled to the brim with household supplies, fruits and vegetables, frozen foods, and whatnot.

However, even he froze when he felt the tense atmosphere in the room. As he looked into the dining room, his expression relaxed when he saw his sister and the other girl nervously fidgeting around while they sat in front of Ray as if they were ashamed of sin.

Seeing this, Tim did not say anything and walked forward as he greeted Ray,

"Good morning Bro, how are you doing",

"Hi Tim, I am doing well. I see, you went to get some supplies, so we waited for you to start the discussion",

Ray replied to Tim's greeting while also telling him why everyone was gathered there.

Tim's expression turned serious as he nodded.

Then, Tim also stood behind Ray. On the other hand, Ray, seeing Tim standing behind him got flustered and when he turned around, he got shocked.

"Uhmm, why are you all standing there? Take a seat please",

Ray felt embarrassed when he saw them standing behind him as if they were his subordinates.

After listening to what Ray had to say, all of the boys compiled and took a seat as well.

Afterward, the real talks began.

Ray asked,

"So Elina and Aliya, I heard that you guys took two rooms for your own and asked everyone else to share the remaining one or sleep on the couch",

"I am sure you both know that every student has to share their room with another and also that four people couldn't share a room where two people are the limit",

"Of course, personal space is also very important and in case of two people is still somewhat manageable but how would four people manage it, and also that peace of mind and adequate rest is necessary. I don't think that sleeping on the couch would help with that, now would it?",

Ray asked and then waited. He waited for his words to sink into their minds and also deliberately spoke all at one time to not let anyone raise any objections.

In this case, Ray acted very smartly and this also caused his words to have a certain reaction on the boys as well. This would make all of them considerate of each other's matters and would lead them to develop a greater bond.

On the other hand, both Elina and Aliya lowered their heads in embarrassment. Ray's words made them deeply ashamed as they knew of the consequences of their action and also knew that asking everyone to sleep on the couch was the same as asking them to give up their personal space and a portion of their combat ability.

The girls had turned silent and the atmosphere remained just like that for about 5 minutes before Aliya cleared her throat and spoke,

"I am sorry, team leader Ray, I got carried away and also dragged Elina into it. It was all supposed to be a light prank",

Ray, on the other hand, looked at Aliya, who seemed to be on the verge of tears after being embarrassed so much, and spoke,

"It's okay, it is good that you understand the consequences of your action, and although it didn't seem much if you look into the long term, various negative side effects lead from improper rest and disturbed mental health",

"Now, let's set some rules for the dormitory. Shall we?",

Everyone nodded and a discussion appeared in the dining room, about dormitory rules and what they should be.

After all, Ray was not inconsiderate of his teammates. Therefore, he accepted everyone's suggestion, and soon a set of 5 rules had been drawn up.

The rules were not too harsh nor too restricting. Everyone felt that these rules were very helpful to everyone's growth.

The first rule was,

"Any person's privacy was not to be violated while the girl's room off limits",

The second rule was,

"No one was allowed to bring anyone whether male or female to stay in the dormitory at night, lest it arises any conflicts for other people",

The third rule was,

"Two-hour Daily sparring and training before breakfast was to be done daily to help everyone act as a team and to also refine their abilities",

The fourth rule was,

"Everyone had to take care of their hygiene while everyone would also alternate in cleaning their rooms. As for the rest of the building, all members would work together for cleaning it",

The last rule was,

"If any problem arises for anyone, all the people living in the dormitory would help the person to the best of their abilities".

These were the five rules set up and though they didn't seem much, Ray knew that all of these rules helped everyone be punctual and more disciplined, as, the last rule, was something Ray had wanted to try to help increase the level of team building and to strengthen their bonds.

This way, during real combat, everyone would understand each other much more clearly and it would also help everyone fight as a team much more efficiently.

With that, the day's matters had come to an end and everyone returned to their own devices.
