Chapitre 70: Present

I went back into my room and changed into a clean shirt before I headed to my study desk and wrote down the names that Nate and Ren gave me. I just about finished writing their names when I saw the little box that Ace gave me.

I almost forgot about it. I was too preoccupied with worry to even be bothered by the fact that Ace gave me a gift. But instead of grabbing the box, I just looked at it. Ace said that I should open it as soon as he leaves.

My eyes narrowed in suspicion. He never gave me a gift before. Why even bother now? And the last thing that he said to me regards it was very alarming as well. Why can’t I open it in his presence?

It’s not a bomb, right?

I poked the box with the feather pen.

Very suspicious.

I grabbed the box and began to shake it. Nothing. I heard nothing. I guess I will just have to open it. “This better not be one of those things where something jumps out at you.” I muttered. Hoping that a knife won’t pop up and stab me.
