Chapter 401
Living impulsively like this... doesn’t seem so bad after all.
In fact, this wasn’t even the first time I’d lived like this.
Back in university—freshman year, I think I lived like this for a while. I hadn’t studied that hard for the college entrance exam either, and after graduation I just sort of drifted along, doing whatever I felt like in the moment. I ended up tanking my GPA and had to make up for it in later years.
Of course, it’s not the same now. Back then I had no money and was still living off my parents, so I couldn’t really do everything I wanted. But now, that wasn’t the case.
Besides, I didn’t have to worry about jobs or licenses or any of that.
One trip to another world and boom—life opened up.
“You seem like you’re in a good mood.”
“There’s no reason not to be.”
Turning my head from the passenger seat, I saw Charlotte, Mia, and Alice sitting in the back.
Claire, sitting in the driver’s seat, was humming along cheerfully. She’d picked out the car’s playlist herself—a strange mix of idol music I didn’t care about and oddly atmospheric jazz tracks. It was a weird combination, but I kind of liked it.
Originally, Claire had been in the driver’s seat, with Charlotte planning to sit next to her. But before we even made it out of Seoul onto the highway, Claire kept turning around to talk to me, and we ended up switching seats in the interest of safety.
I guess Claire was so excited that she couldn’t quite control herself. Still, her driving had been fine.
