Bab 39: Cookie?

Since Maynard asked his sons to accompany Cosette, Luke happily took her to the garden. Asher didn't want to come, but between dealing with the adults and watching his foolish brother, the latter was far more entertaining.

"Don't you attend the same academy as ours?" Luke inquired, sitting on the bench sandwiched between Cosette and Asher.

Cosette shrugged while holding a saucer of biscuits from the event hall. "Not anymore," she answered before munching a cookie. She offered Luke some, and he accepted happily.

"Not anymore? Why? Were you kicked out?"

"I transferred to another school," she kept her answer short, as it wasn't truly a big deal for her.
