Chapter 196: Were you expecting anyone?
Honestly, Alice felt she wasn’t prepared for anything. She knew that going to school was just for formality at this point, so it didn’t matter if she passed with flying colors, but it all felt pointless.
They were taking such good care of her, and she bet they already had her school bag, which she didn’t even know she had filled with books.
’I guess I’ll just give it a try first.’ she thought to herself. ’It shouldn’t be so hard with Leo helping me with comprehension and stuff.’ she glanced at him and he glanced at her. ’I guess this is one of the perks of having your mind linked with a god.’
Don’t think of me as a comprehension material. Leo refuted harshly in her mind, but she gave a dead ear, glancing away and showing him her shoulders.
’You’ll help me either way.’ she confidently said to him.
"Good morning, Alice." Mark’s voice alerted Alice and she turned to find him smiling warmly at her. "Did you sleep well?"
"Oh, Mark, you’re such a lifesaver." She ran to hug him. "I heard you woke up super early just to prepare breakfast for me." She said,
"Technically, I woke him up." Leo said but she purposely ignored him.
"Thank you so much." She smiled in his face, and Mark was glad she was expressing herself so ’closely’, but this was too much contact early in the morning, and she was pressing against him too much.
He could feel her...
"Now, now," Miss Stella called out. "Hurry up and eat. We should start heading out in ten minutes." She perked up her glasses, hinting she was serious about the time. "And not a second more."
