that's just how it works [REWRITING]

Chapter Nineteen - Training: Start!

. . .

You groan, falling back onto your bed. You cast your bag off to the side, throwing your arms out to the side. "In two weeks... I will have to compete with... my friends." You mutter to yourself, eyes closed. You sit up, eyelids fluttering up. "But also, my foes." Your thoughts drift to Monoma, and his startled expression that you left him with. You gnaw on the side of your cheek, frowning.

A tiny 'bing' sounds out, ringing throughout your room. You stand and stumble over to your desk, plopping down in the chair and pulling out your phone. You unlock it and pull down the notification bar, to see a message from Kirishima. You click on it, and you're sent to the messaging app.
