Glen's POV
"Stop playing around already and just eat your food since it's already about time to go for class" my brother suddenly scolded and we all look at him and saw him eating properly making us fix ourselves and eat properly too.
"About the mentor-mentee program—just be prepared since they might announce it whenever everything is ready and has settled down, so just prepare for it" he continued and smiled at us.
(Even though you try to hide your emotions but once that will be filled it would overflow and there's always a chance it would spill and they would notice it) I said in my mind before I continued to eat my food in silence.
"What do you think would my mentee look like?" I hear Kaylee asked making me look at her and saw her tapping her finger tips on the table while thinking.
(I bet that she is thinking to have a handsome kid that she will ravage—I mean teach, my thought slipped there) I then saw her smile in an uncomfortable manner making me tap her shoulders and she looked at me in confusion.
"Don't even think about it Lee, please you are going to protect the kid and not the other way around" I said to her and she puts her arms around my neck and Mark just give us an amused chuckle making me dodge Lee's arm and look at him.
"It goes the same for you too" I scolded him and he then shuts up.
"Don't worry dear couz I will never do that" Kaylee said making me eye her and she withdraws her hands and raise it in the air telling me that she doesn't care.
I simply just stare at her and she looked uncomfortable since I doubt her.
"I promise" she said and I nod at her but still hesitant before we all stand up and went to put our plates on the counter.
We then separated ways since both Kaylee and I have our class on the other building.
"Glen— I am— nothing... never mind" my brother said before he walks off like he was kind of troubled making me sigh in defeat.
"Are you okay?" Kaylee said while putting her hands on my shoulder and I look at her in worry.
"He is still trying to cope with it. He is not just like you, you know. He needs more time" she said and I look at her.
"I understand that but I'm already getting worried about him. It's already been a week and still he won't even talk to me. Look at you, you're already good to go and can eat a whole horse" I argued and she glared at me before I close my eyes and looks away.
She suddenly taps my shoulders and I open my eyes and look at her. She was motioning me to look in front and I did and saw my brother's back walking away from us before they both disappeared in the corner.
"Then try to talk to him again and besides Glen we all cope in different pace and we might not be as lucky as you who could adapt immediately but still, we try" she honestly said which caught me off guard making me sigh for the millionth time and I looked at him.
"I guess so..." I said calmly while taking a deep breath since I got a little bit hit when she said that they are not like me who could adapt easily.
"That's what I plan after class and I want your help by the way" I said when I manage to calm down myself and then I turn around and started walking to our class.
"Wait.... Why do you need my help? What are you going to do?" she said when she caught up with me and I just give her a silly smile.
"I will tell you later since going to class is more important today" I said to her and she just smiled at me before we went to our class.
"Your still you, right" she said before we go to class.

Kaylee's POV
The incident already stopped and I was very lucky that I am one of those students who survived. I look at glen who is listening to the lecture. He is calm as ever and back to his self while me on the other hand is still not.
(Even though I show him a tough expression like nothing ever happen but deep inside me I am still not over it-- and maybe he too is like that...)
A memory suddenly appeared in my eyes and I froze but I shake it immediately. It was the memory when I felt that Glen's magic energy nearly faded.
I still look at him and very thankful that he is alive and that he had save me back then.
(I owe my life to him. He risked his life knowing that the consequence of his action is his life) I thought before I look sad and when he looks back at me, I immediately smile at him and he smiled at me too before he looks in front.
(Thank all magic that he became my family and I am very lucky to have him. He might always be like a funny guy that don't take everything seriously and more of a game but once he determined about something, he will take it seriously especially if it involves family) I sigh before slumping on the table while still looking at him back.
"I really envy that attitude of yours but sometimes I also wonder how you really fell deep inside" I mumble before taking a deep breath and averted my gaze to the board and tried to listen to what the teacher is talking about to help me not over think about it.

Class was finished in the blink of an eye and now I have a class without Glen so we both said our goodbyes before we went into separate hallways since I will have magic lessons and he will have combative lesson.
"See you later alligator" he joked and I followed him before we both chuckled at our silliness—well he started it.
I came to my class and I suddenly meet the one and only Antonette who just walk at the other hallway. I immediately tried to ignore her and walk even faster but she spoke making me stop on my tracks.
"Stop" she said seriously and I did.
(What does she want now? Can't she see that I don't want to talk to her) I groan in annoyance but I didn't do it loud since (You know she is good with potions and you never know she might poison me one day. Though I think that might be too late already since I already got on her bad side)
I then turn around and smiled at her widely.
