Bab 369: Why did she lie?

Aleksis peeked through the slightly opened door and saw Professor Rodriguez standing facing the students with his back to the door. He seemed to be busy discussing something with the mostly sleepy students who were not used to studying in the morning.

Aleksis believed that many of them blamed themselves for coming to class so early hoping to meet her, but instead she was not in class. She felt a little sorry for them.

At that moment, her gaze collided with Ian who happened to be looking at the door. The young man looked surprised but pleased to see her presence. He then gave a signal with his chin so Aleksis would enter quietly.

Aleksis nodded and tiptoed like a cat into the classroom with her back to the wall, trying not to attract any attention. Many students who saw what she was doing tried to hold back their laughter and pretended to focus their attention on Professor Rodriguez, so that he would not be suspicious.
