PAID

It felt like another incident popped up as soon as one ended. After the call, my head felt tangled with thoughts.

‘Why is it that ominous feelings always turn out to be right?’

Thinking it over, I realized the problem had to be me. If it weren’t for me, they wouldn’t keep piling work on.

I sighed inwardly and locked eyes with someone across from me.

Seol Yoon, with her hamster-like cheeks stuffed, was staring at me with a grin.

“You have a teacher too, Ha-Eun?”

“Uh… Did I mention that?”

“Nope? But I’ve never seen you speak so formally to someone your age, so I just guessed.”

That’s an even weirder thing to say, don’t you think? But I kept that question to myself.

I scratched my head with one hand before standing up.

I couldn’t exactly head to France right this minute, and since my teacher was already there, there wasn’t an immediate issue.

Even so…

‘Tsk. Why do I feel so uneasy?’@@novelbin@@

There are always variables in everything. I couldn’t let my guard down completely.

I needed to prepare, just in case.

After giving a nod to Seol Yoon—now officially a temporary teacher—I turned to leave.

She cheerfully waved me off, and I waved back as I headed for my classroom.

Ziiip.
