"Thank you, guys. If it is the 3 of us, I believe we can do it." Arslan said with determination filling his eyes. He felt glad to have friends who would have supported him in his battles. That was the kind of friendship he aimed for when he began attending the Academy.
"Hoping John doesn't get in our way..." Eliza said with her distrustful glare pointed at John.
"Hey, what do you want to say?!" John angrily replied to her.
They sent hateful glares at each other while Arslan hit his forehead with his left palm,
'They will never get along, will they?'
At that moment, Arslan noticed John having a bag on his back too,
"John, are you going home too?"
After saying those words, Arslan noticed John widening his eyes for a moment. Then, he closed them and smiled at Arslan.
"Yes, my family sent a messenger by a horse yesterday to ask for my come back."
