"Here, you can sit next to me."
Max had just boarded the bus when a voice called out to him, earning him several cold glances from the others.
Tracing the voice, his gaze landed on the bald-headed youth sitting on the last row seat, with a casual smirk on his lips while appearing to be the most approachable one on the bus.
'Huh?'
Puzzled by this act while noting the cold stare he was given by the others, Max chose to walk forward.
'Not that I was going to miss the chance to sit at the back. He seems rather easygoing than the rest. It is best if I know where we are headed to.'
Walking over to sit next to the bald head, Max thought wryly.
Bald head, sturdy frame, and a laid-back air around him that didn't match his size. Max appraised the former before taking the other opposite end.
"Thanks." Upon sitting, Max greeted under his breath.
"Oh, it's nothing." In reply, the bald youth waved it away.
Hiss!
