The transferring process for Aslan went smoothly. I got a call from Alex at nighttime, who told me that Aslan would start enrolling in my school. He also said that Aslan looked unusually excited about this, and Alex thought it was all thanks to my positive influence on him.
If only he knew that Aslan only wanted to seek the thrill of conquest. His desire to transfer had little to no relation to me.
The following day, since Alex had given me a heads up beforehand, it did not surprise me when Mr Hudson announced that there would be a transfer student in my class. I straightened my back, fully expecting to see Aslan's figure when Mr Hudson called the transfer student in. However, to my surprise, the one who entered the classroom wasn't Aslan.
"Huh?" I muttered while my classmates were buzzing about the new transfer student.
