As Theo stepped foot outside the arena, he immediately noticed Jim's group.
They stood some distance away, quietly murmuring to themselves.
Finally, he noticed Jim himself.
'Look at that,' he thought, letting out a quiet chuckle. 'Seems like I deflated his ego.'
Jim stood with his hands on his knees, staring at the ground with strange eyes.
He turned away, his gaze returning to the road.
'Well then… time to pick up Owen.'
Theo let out a quiet sigh, planting his hand over his eyes.
'Why'd I even promise to go shopping with him today…'
But just as he was about to walk away, clicks echoed out in front of him.
'Footsteps.'
He glanced forward immediately.
A slightly familiar face stood in front of him.
The brown-haired girl from before looked at him with a sweet smile.
Yet, Theo took a small step back with narrowed eyes.
'She's not right,' he thought. 'What is this strange feeling?'
It was as if a soft thump kept hitting his head.
