Yoo-Euni nodded, accepting his explanation for now. They continued their walk in comfortable silence, the rhythmic click of their shoes echoing through the hallway. Finally, they reached Sebastian's office.
Crieeak!
The door creaked open, revealing Sebastian hunched over a mountain of paperwork.
He looked up, surprise flickering across his features as he saw Alex standing in the doorway.
"Ah, Alex! What brings you back to these school?"
A grin spread across Alex's face. "Hey Sebastian," he said, stepping into the office with Yoo-Euni following close behind. "Just here to ask a favor."
"A favor, huh?" Sebastian boomed, his bushy eyebrows raised in amusement. He leaned back in his creaking chair, gesturing for Alex to elaborate.
Alex stepped forward, confidence in his stride. "It's about a girl here, a first-year with white hair, named Marlowe."
