Chương 192: I can't be without you

As Lise and I trudged back to my room, the weight of exhaustion settled into our bones. The day had been a whirlwind of chaos, confusion, and unexpected flirtation. The sun was beginning its descent, casting a warm golden hue over the campus. The air was thick with the scent of pine and earth, a peaceful contrast to the tumultuous events that had just transpired.

Lise walked beside me, her expression relaxed but with an amused glint in her eyes. The tension from earlier had eased, replaced by a quiet companionship that I always found comforting.

The soft crunch of leaves under our feet and the distant chatter of other students created a soothing backdrop as we made our way back to my dorm. The path ahead was familiar, lined with tall trees that swayed gently in the breeze, their leaves whispering secrets only they could understand.
