Chapter 176: She Was Still Attuned To Us

"Ms. Hartwell." Professor Gilbert smiled, his eyes dropped to my chest like they always seemed to do before he looked back up.

"I haven't seen you all week. I trust your new classes are going well?"

I scratched the back of my neck, already uncomfortable. It was one thing to ask how my classes were going and another thing to comment that he hadn't seen me, especially when I didn't take any of his classes this semester. He had no reason to see me. "Hi, Professor Gilbert." I said, awkwardly, my eyes flitted around, trying to find escape.

"Yes, the classes are going great."

Not that I would know, seeing as I hadn't been to most of them.

"That is good to hear. You are missed in my classes, no one seemed as interested in the materials as you were."

He was bullshitting so hard, I hadn't shown any interest. I had done all could to avoid talking in his class, never asked any questions, and got the hell out of there the second the lecture was over.

"That..." I had absolutely no idea what to say, and I just wanted to end the conversation as quickly as possible.
