บท 150: (150) Second Meeting

The man sitting on the stone looked up in surprise. That was a voice that he couldn't forget if he'd tried.

"Geth?!"

The man halfway fell off the boulder he was sitting on, gaining his footing before hitting the ground.

"You didn't travel very far after our last encounter," Geth stated. He wouldn't be rude to the man, but he definitely wouldn't be polite, either.

Blade looked down at his feet, "This place is still home to me. I couldn't bring myself to just leave it behind."

A moment of awkward silence ensued. Geth waited for the man to say more while Blade just stared at the ground.

"You two... already know each other?" The silence was broken by Jack. The other students gossiped tales about their possible relationship.

Most of the quickly spreading whispers pinned Geth as the bad guy. He shook his head at their naivety.
