The hallway near the west courtyard remained quiet for several more minutes after Than’s message arrived.
Soft afternoon sunlight stretched across the polished floor while distant campus noise echoed faintly from outside.
Students laughing somewhere near the cafeteria.
Motorbikes moving beyond the front gates.
Music drifting from another faculty event farther across campus.
Everything sounded ordinary.
Yet somehow—
the atmosphere surrounding Tharin still felt emotionally unstable.
A serious issue honestly.
Because currently—
Aran stood beside him calmly while holding iced coffee in one hand,
Narin lingered nearby carrying lunch documents dramatically,
and Than continued monitoring whether Tharin ate properly from somewhere across the city.
A terrifying combination honestly.
