Part 2The Girl Who Burned

The atmosphere inside was oppressive and chaotic.

As soon as I stepped out, I greedily inhaled the fresh air drifting freely outside.

Suddenly, a deafening boy's voice rang out from the office next door, echoing into the hallway.

"Liam, catch!"

Almost instantly, my nerves were pulled. I turned my head subconsciously.

A boy caught a book flying towards him.

He smirked at the office next door, looking triumphant.

With that reckless and arrogant energy, I immediately pieced him together with the person deep in my memory who always grinned at me.
