Immediately after they had given our sheets of paper, I start reading carefully. All the class was concentrated, and I think it's the first time they all have been so silent.

The test was divided into three days, and we soon finished it.


"Pencil down, everybody, announces the professor. The last person in each row, collect the answer sheets and bring them here."

Some comrades don't wait to come to Momo.

"Thanks, Yao-momo !"

"I didn't leave anything blank, at least !"

"How did you do Jen ?"

"Easy peasy, you ?"

"Same"

Anna gives me a thumb up.

"Thank god it's over" Sighs Jirou.

"Yeah !" He agrees.

"Only two tho...that's a bummer"

"It's okay Soph, we can't do everything together. I'll find someone."
