Capítulo 50: One-on-One Talk

"Austin, Della's looking for you!"

At recess, Austin was surprised when one of his classmates yelled as he reached the classroom exit right after the break bell rang throughout the school. They were indeed quite close now. But up to the point where Della openly came to his classroom, Austin never thought his relationship with the girl would develop this quickly.

As Austin got up from his seat to confirm Della's whereabouts, he found her standing next to his classroom door. Della perked up as she noticed Austin's presence. When their eyes met, even if Della kept trying to look okay, the girl still couldn't hide her sadness in front of Austin.

"Want to talk alone?" Austin offered in a softer voice than usual. Della nodded without saying anything. The two walked down the hallway without saying anything. Only when they stopped in front of the drink machine did Austin stop to buy something.
