Chapter 158: Back to School

The classroom was rather more chaotic than usual, most likely because of the sudden return of the Moore siblings from their long holidays. Calling it a holiday would be wrong too, mainly because of their unwarranted missing. Del wasn't surprised by the welcoming party, and he expected that. 

However, one person seemed to put a very straight face about what happened earlier, particularly Aveline. She wasn't surprised about their return. Heck, she acted as if nothing had happened. There was a justification for that act, but what was the right one? Was it because she knew? Or she just expected that they would return safely. 

"I almost worried that someone kidnapped your or something, Del. You haven't returned for a week or so, what happened?" Adam asked with a worried tone. 

"Nothing happened, I just took a sick leave, what is so weird about that?" Del asked him back.

"Nah, the classroom feels different without you," Adam said.
