As Irina was about to relocate to her assigned seat in compartment C, seat 12, she was taken aback by an unexpected sight.
A familiar face, one she didn't expect to see on this train, was sitting in the seat right before her. The young boy with purple eyes and black hair, Astron.
"Huh?" Irina uttered in surprise, her eyes locking onto his.
Astron, maintaining his usual serious demeanor, slowly lifted his gaze to meet Irina's. The exchange of glances created a momentary pause, and the passengers nearby observed the unexpected encounter.
After all, Irina's presence immediately gathered attention from the surroundings the moment she entered the train. Her clothes and her demeanor alone suggested that she was someone with a high standing, and her beauty was enough to attract everyone.
"You…" Irina started, caught off guard by Astron's presence.
Astron looked at the girl standing right before him as he mumbled. "I should have expected it."
