As I walked back to my room with a smile on my face, I thought.
I will help people. I will save someone. Finally... I will be able to walk a little on the path I decided.
An even bigger smile appeared on my face.
For the first time since the day I met Aiden and talked to him on that bench, I'm going to be able to do something I really want. I'm really going to be useful. This time people won't suffer because of me, they'll thank me. I still haven't received a reply to the text message I sent, but I have a good feeling.
Just the thought of it makes me so excited that I can't sit still.
'Adrian, you're too distracted. Pay more attention to your surroundings.'
With those words echoing in my head, I suddenly paused, because Lithoa would never say anything to me for nothing.
I turned around and looked around, silently just waiting.
No one is around... at least at first glance.
"Oh? Did you notice?"
