I just want to be a normal student! ⚔️

Chapter 54- The three questions ⚔️

A/N: Uhmm.. brace yourself? (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)

.

Barrow is cunning.

Thus, the fact that the transfer student, Cale Henituse, could suppress this WS leader with their rather close, yet, hard-to-guess relationship, leaves a very deep impression on everyone.

However..

Would that forever be the case?

Perhaps.. the one that was truly being suppressed by this strange turn of event, might very likely be someone else.

Someone, whom no one could have ever expected.

.

“I know what you’re trying to do.”

With neither shocked nor emotional tone, Cale uttered such a phrase.

— that he wasn’t a least bit oblivious of what Barrow was initially planning.

But..

‘But.. I won’t say anything.’

Or rather.. not yet.

I cannot say anything yet.

Not now nor any time sooner.

At least not at the moment.

Not when you finally showed up after my whole three years looking for you.

Not when we finally meet again after all this time.

Because I know, that once I do..

There will— eventually be no turning back.

Not for me.

And not for you.

‘Just like..’

“The reunion time, is over.”

Just like the us right now.

.

“The reunion time, is over.”

A once playful gaze no longer contains life.

And the redhead who somehow stood up from his seat, were looking down at those around him as though they were not worthy in his eyes.

Since when..?

Keeping his head down, Kim Rok Soo clenched his fists ever so tremblingly.

In just a moment ago, the two redheads were still laughing, and even teasing each other so fine— to the point that even the surrounding students could no longer make out as to whether their past selves were just a mask.

Yet, once they were convinced that Barrow was probably not as scary as the rumors said and that Cale wasn’t as stern as he appeared to be..

The atmosphere around the particular table then immediately turned sour, leading them to what they are seeing right now.

Heavily tensed, the sudden suffocating air made the students questioned each other with their silent gaze.

‘Why?’

‘W-what just happened?’

They didn’t know whether it was their inner fear, or if it’s just an instinctual reaction to stay out of trouble, however, they were seemingly unable to whisper, let alone opening up their mouth to speak.

Though, it was clear that within just a single look at one another, everyone could see they were wearing the same question on their face.

‘Where did the gentle Barrow and the nonchalant transfer student go??’
