Chapter 58: Conflict during Class Lunch

"Since when did you guys become so close, I wonder?"

The question brought me out of my thoughts, and I turned to see who had spoken. It was Nancy, her lips curling into a smirk.

"It doesn't concern you, Nancy," Aisha responded curtly, well aware of Nancy's character and the kind of trouble she could stir.

"Don't be so angry, I just asked a question. Aren't you all curious?" Nancy's voice carried through the room, drawing everyone's attention. "How did the little incapable and nerdy Nathan manage to get close to Aisha, of all people?" she asked, her smirk widening.

"Ain't you right, Nancy? I also wonder that! Kakaka!" Aiden quickly joined in, always eager to bash me. His laughter echoed, and his friends, along with a few other classmates who were genuinely curious, joined in.
