Elora's POV


Staring out of the window as the lecture continues.

At times, i thoroughly enjoy the fact that I have no friends in this college.
As my mercurial temperament is not really something pleasant to deal with.

I just get to exist amidst the 200 students in this class with no one paying any heed to me.

The class slowly comes to an end. I stretch my arms subtly as I pull out my phone and see missed calls ...texts..from sora.

- shall we?

I nod .

We walk towards the park in a leisurely manner and spot so many couples occupying seats and having their time. I awkwardly follow him as we take a seat keeping a noticeable distance.
