Chapter 38.2 - Second Period

-CHATTER!

What is the shortest thing in the world?

For students, the answer would be simple.

Holidays.

Sitting in the classroom, students had gathered for the second period of the first semester after a one-week break and were talking amongst themselves.

"How was your holiday man?"

"Oh, you know, the usual. Tried to catch up on sleep but ended up binge-watching shows."

"Same! I had big plans, but my bed was too cozy to leave."

"I went hiking. Almost got lost, but it was worth it."

Amidst the exchange of holiday stories, one student looked particularly contemplative.

"What's up with you, Jake? You look like you've seen a ghost."

Jake sighed, leaning back in his chair. "I had a weird dream. Like, it's super weird. Can't shake it off."

His friends leaned in, curious expressions on their faces.

"Spill it! What happened in the dream?"
