Kapitel 559: Gladiators (1)

The trip went rather fast as the two chatted away. It was a rather odd feeling, getting along so well with someone after only 1 day of knowing them. 

By the end of the bus ride, Ken felt as is he'd known Steve for many years already.

Apparently he had played baseball from a young age, but only outside of school since he was home schooled until recently. Ken was a little surprised since he thought that kids who were home schooled generally lacked social skills.

Disregarding his own generalization, he patiently listened to his new friends back story. 

As they got up to leave the bus, Stephanie also got to her feet. It seemed it was also her stop. She once again completely ignored Steve, not even sending him a glance.

'Yikes, this could be worse than I thought.' Ken said inwardly, sending the unsuspecting Steve a pitiful glance.

Unaware of his plight, the guy walked forward, beckoning Ken to follow.
