[Kyle's POV:]
There was something about to happen soon, which was why the students were asked to report to the lobby in an hour. So, we decided to part ways for now and meet later.
"Kyle… I don't want to go." She clung to my arm, her voice almost breaking. Clearly, she felt the same as I did. I didn't want to leave her side either. Not after we had reunited after so long. There were too many things left unsaid, too many apologies and secrets waiting to surface.
But, "If we miss this, the professors will just separate us even more and overwork us in different places. It's better to stay obedient. And it's not like whatever they've planned will last all night. After dinner, we can meet again." I tried to coax her.
Amanda looked at me, her eyes wide. That was a dangerous look to aim at me.
In a soft voice, she asked, "Promise you won't ignore me anymore… I'm scared that whatever we have right now will disappear once we go our separate ways."
