The next thing I knew, I was sitting in a restaurant with a plate of fried chicken and Schezwan rice in front of me.
Across the table? Professor Lena, Ryen, Leona, Nora... and—wait, Kiera?
Kiera?
What the hell was she doing here?
I had literally just met her twenty minutes ago. She was getting chewed out by my sister and not long after, I caught her stalking me around campus.
And now she was here, seated at our table like she belonged?
She flinched when our eyes met, quickly looking away and pretending to study the soy sauce bottle like it contained the secrets of the universe.
I blinked, still trying to wrap my head around how this bizarre turn of events even happened.
I'm sure anyone watching from the outside would've wondered the same thing.
How the hell did this happen?
Did I get brainwashed between bites of rice?
Was there a mind-control spell in the chili oil?
