Alexa Delvore

She offered watching some of Zherylle's games but was not continued due to the misunderstanding between them which separates their relationship from one another. Upon realization on Alexa's efforts to Zherylle to reconcile, Zherylle was believed to fell in love with her former bestfriend but was oblivious on Alexa's personal feelings towards her. Zherylle kept her feelings for her in a long time and admired her from a far while silently supporting her. She likes Alexa a lot, but she refuses to admit to anyone her love for her and made them believe instead that she was going after a reunion of friendship with Alexa. She often uses the term "reunion of friendship" when referring towards her to cover up her growing feelings for a former bestfriend who obviously lost all the love and care left for her. Still, Alexa treats Zherylle in a kind way every time they would have an opportunity to be together. Zherylle holds onto this hope, planning to fix their broken friendship and confess all of her feelings towards her. She made this her major goal through out the years, turning her admiration to obsession towards the former bestfriend that she secretly longs for.

Zherylle was supportive of Hope's crushes, motivating her that she has a chance with them. Their friendship comes with a lot of love and hate towards each other as they often love to quarrel and annoy one another. In the later chapters, Zherylle realizes her growing feelings for Hope, completely disregarding Alexa out of the page. Zherylle's growing feelings led her actions to focus on Hope instead. She convinced herself that she had a little crush on Hope and planned to keep it as a secret crush, afraid that it might ruin their friendship if Hope does not reciprocate her feelings. Zherylle was afraid of getting rejected by Hope, she then decided to like her secretly, but her feelings towards her show sometimes every time they are together. After denying Zherylle's growing feelings towards Hope, which she never expected that she would feel, she let herself fall hard towards her. Despite her feelings, she acted naturally around her and dreamt of one day, having her friend as someone that she could call hers. By summer, Hope hinted on reciprocating Zherylle's feelings for her and they then shared their own confessions on that night. They became girlfriends afterwards, making it as each other's first romantic relationship.
