Chapter 352: You Have Lost!
Victor knew that he could bump into Nora if he returned to school. But it was the thrill of meeting her again that he returned.
He had called her so many times only to know that she had blocked his number. He had gone to her house only to be informed that she shifted places. These days it was hard to get even a glimpse of her.
He had been looking for her everywhere yet, he could only hear about her from others. But after the collapse of her family, the desire to meet her had intensified.
As he climbed the stairs slowly and held the door of their classroom, he suddenly felt nervous. He could hear their chatter. He could recognize that voice anywhere.
He took a deep breath and pulled the door. Nora was standing with Lucy and Emma. They were laughing over something. When the door opened, Nora turned to look at him.
He held his breath when their eyes met. Her eyes widened and an emotion flashed into them. But it was gone before it was there and she looked away coldly.
Victor felt his hand tightened on the door. He ignored her and walked to his seat.
The teacher was not there. Students were talking about their project, about their entrance and university choice and long break. About upcoming exams and how their dreams are just an inch away.
Every voice was unbearable. Every word hit him like a hammer. People paused and gasped when he stood up with force. The chair screeching on the ground brought attention to many. No, he could not act like strangers.
