Chapter 0036

Nan only rolled her eyes and made her way over to me, wrapping her arms around me and pulling me in for a hug. “Are you okay?” she asked me, her voice low and for my eats alone.

I nodded, feeling the burning sensation of unshed tears in the back of my eyes. I refused to let them fall right here though; I wasn’t going to let my peers see me break.

“Yeah, it was just a misunderstanding, I told her.

I raised my brow, surprised by her question.
