Zoemi could barely keep himself on his chair through the class, the anxiety and horrible feeling in his guts were telling him that something very dangerous was merely a single step away from actually happening and he merely had a handful of clues to figure out how to stop whatever it was from happening ā he needed more information ā and to gather those, he stood up from his seat as soon as the lesson finished.
"Zoemi...? Where are you going...?"
Miriette reacted immediately as soon as the black-haired boy left his spot - as if she was afraid that her attendant will just disappear on her...
...which made Zoemi bow his head towards her with an apologetic smile...
"Excuse me, my lady, but I need to deal with a small personal matter."
"Ah, oh... I see. Of course, but come back as soon as you will be done."
He apologized and gave a vague reason and judging by the dark-haired girl's expression, she misunderstood what he actually meant ā but even that wasn't bad at all.
