In any case, we remained the topic of everyone’s gossip. Furthermore, Hana’s standing in class snowballed into more than just being a transfer student. She’s now being compared to Nami when it comes to presence.
Somehow, the girl becoming accepted by our classmates progressed faster than I thought.
There was also that one baffling scenario where someone promised to exchange seats with her. While it’s not significant since she would only be put in the fifth row, others also offered to exchange until she ended up getting the promise of having the seat directly in front of Aya.
