Well-Concealed Secret
I looked at him and shook my head. "We're late for class, let's go." Professor Singh gave me a curious look and waved goodbye.
"What do you have to discuss?" Sebastian asked again.
"Just doing my homework," I told him. I was not lying. Indeed, it was part of my homework, but the reason for it was entirely selfish. He hummed, even though he knew I wasn't completely truthful. He had been too understanding in the past few days and it was scaring me a little. The next couple of classes flew by and conversations with students took up most of my time. I barely got to see Sebastian. Therefore, I somehow didn't feel embarrassed any longer.
Lunch break came and I called Professor Singh. "Evie, I am in the canteen. Come join me," he chirped. I could hear the distinct noise of students surrounding him. I made sure my purse was on me before going to the canteen nearest to us.
