Chapter 50: Get In the Car, Or Else
Arriving at the parking lot, away from the campus’s bustling noises, the afternoon sun stretched long shadows across the concrete. Micah pulled out his mobile phone, thumbed over the screen, and, with a soft beep, unlocked the car. The side mirrors twitched out as the car powered on.
"This is like it was tailor-made for me... otherwise, Mum would never have lent me her keys..." he muttered under his breath, pressing the start button with a devilish smile. His eyes darted to Darcy, but the other boy was standing outside the car, brows furrowed in deep thought.
Micah rolled the window down. "What’s wrong?? Have you forgotten something?"
Darcy blinked. "I really think I have troubled you enough. I’ll just take the bus."
"Get in the car, or I’ll leak your info on the League forum as DarkVyne. You wouldn’t want that, would you?" Micah threatened, his voice full of dominance.
Darcy hesitated for a split second before letting out a sigh and getting in the car.
"So, where am I headed?!" Micah turned his head.
Darcy pulled out his phone, tapping through his GPS. "Here," he said, tilting the screen toward Micah. "It is a well-known pharmacy. They specialise in rare medications."
Micah leaned closer to read, squinting at the screen.
Darcy flinched the moment a minty scent hit his face. Micah’s snow-white hair danced in front of his eyes. He shifted in his seat uncomfortably and reached out, turning the air conditioner vent toward his face.
Micah’s attention was all on the phone. The moment his eyes landed on the SAFA logo, his smile faltered. His gaze darkened for a second before he composed himself.
