Bab 43: Did She Elope?

Much to Avery's excitement, the class ended within the next thirty minutes. With her books already packed, she only had to swing her bag over her shoulders and bolt down the steps to escape Orion, but her attempt ended up futile when she collided with someone on her way down.

"I'm sorry!" she apologized immediately even without seeing the person's face, and prepared to continue with her escape but was pulled back.

"What's the problem, Ava? What's the rush for?"

It was Jodi's voice, totally unexpected which made Avery look up, surprise evident in her eyes.

"What are you doing here, Jodi? Your hall is—"

"A considerable distance away from here, I know that. I came because I heard some 'hot' professor was lecturing this hall today and turns out the hot professor is Orion Smith. Just look at the crowd for heaven's sake," Jodi complained, exhaustion tinting her voice as she swept her gaze around the hall.
