“Follow you? Why?” “Just follow me to my office. I want to show you the records there.” “No. I can't. Someone might see me.” “Well, that would actually be a good thing. It would be a clear sign that our hard work over you these past few months finally paid off. Don't worry about it, just come with me.” He just didn't get it.

the instructor barked. Laughter erupted from the line again. Sky froze mid-step, his ears turning red. “Sorry…” he mumbled. “Again!” Sky tried, but his body betrayed him. He was tense, overthinking every step like he was calculating a math problem on live TV. Then, from the side, Night raised his hand. “Can I try?” The instructor tilted his head. “Go ahead.”

"What work?" "Document analysis!" "In that case, hand over all of that to your colleague. Meanwhile, you stay here to accompany my child!”

“If there was one I knew you could ace, it’s this one.” Smiling, I nodded and slipped back into work mode. Math was easy. It made sense, you just needed to know the formulas for it. The simplicity was only marred by larger numbers or fractions. All of it could easily be worked out if I just took the time to do it. I went through five scratch papers as I worked through the notebook, basically double checking my work. At some point, Caleb had come back but he still didn’t look too happy about whatever crawled up his ass.

I didn’t flinch this time. Didn’t rush. I just looked down. “You’re thinking too much.” My jaw tightened. “Maybe I’m starting to understand,” I typed. The reply came instantly. “Then prove it.” My chest tightened slightly. Prove it? Another message followed. “Test three.” I exhaled slowly. “Of course,” I muttered. Then. “Leave your apartment.” I stared at the screen. Again. Always outside. Always movement. Always pushing me forward. “Why?” I typed.

Did it work out? You'll find out... soon.

I appreciate your effort and support 🖤. Kindly like and follow for more!

Chen was staring at me. "Yes." "Question three. What is the value of x." I looked at the board. I did not even know which question was number three. "Twelve," I said. Mr. Chen raised his eyebrows. "That is correct. But you did not show your work." "I did it in my head." He looked at me for a second longer. Then he turned back to the board. Chloe passed me a note. "since when are you good at math" I wrote back. "since always"

I shouted, "You can punish me however you want afterward. I'll also explain everything to you!" Hannah lifted my chin and wiped away my tears. Then, she pushed my face away. "It's too bad you're putting on this act too late. Otherwise, seeing you on your knees and begging like this might have made me feel sorry for you." She continued, "You probably don't know this, but I work for Gabriella now. Freddie brought me into the team. He saw potential in me and gave me a shot. Cyril went after him more than once, and now he's lying through his teeth again!

he asked. "I was just helping him with some homework problem and he wanted to take me to The Spot to thank me" I replied, honestly. Wolf's face cleared suddenly and he smirked. "You really think that Clive needed help with a homework problem? He's a genius. He could practically write the textbook" he asked with a sneer. I turned away as the realization hit me. He was right.
