Chapter 433-A Friend Or A Foe
Helanie:
"Okay then, it is decided. You guys will stay while the others leave. However, those who are staying will have a quick meeting with us," Norman informed, and the others started to walk out of the hall.
"Thank you for listening to my suggestion," I turned to Norman, whispering so only he could hear.
"Say that again? It’s not every day that Helanie decides to be nice to me," Norman hunched down dramatically, bringing his ear close to me to hear me clearly.
"I said—thank you for not being a douchebag for a minute."
I knew I was crossing a line, but somehow, it made Norman laugh?
Even I regretted saying it the very next moment, but his laughter made me believe maybe he wasn’t so offended after all.
We went back to our rooms and waited for the hostel to finally empty.
After everyone had left and it was just the few of us, the hostel felt so silent. Soon, the guard came and informed us to pack our bags and move to the dining hall, which had been cleared for our stay for the next few days.
"We will all be sleeping in the hall?" I asked Emmet, who was guiding the guards as they laid down the mattresses.
"Yeah, it’s important that you all keep an eye on each other. We brothers will take turns staying here with you guys so that none of you leave the hostel alone. But at the same time, we also want you all to look out for each other," he made it clear that it was for our own safety.
