Chapter 1798

Odie watched as Sophie fell for his little trick, a cheeky grin spreading across his face. This was more like it. Finally, a chance to pull one over on Sophie.

"I could really go for a milkshake right now," he said.

"And where am I supposed to find you a milkshake with class about to start?" Sophie replied, exasperated.

"Ugh, I'm in such a bad mood. Maybe I'll just jump off a building," Odie teased, turning dramatically toward the rooftop.

"Alright, alright, I'll get you a milkshake!" Sophie quickly interjected, reaching out to stop him. She recalled there was a café on campus, but it was about a half-mile away.

After a brief pause, she added, "But you have to come with me. I need to make sure you don't try anything crazy."

"I promised I wouldn't do anything drastic as long as you're with me," Odie agreed, adding with a playful tone, "But if you want me to tag along for a milkshake run, I'm all in."

"Fine! Let's go together," Sophie conceded, trying to ignore the teasing glint in his eyes.

They set off, with Sophie walking slightly ahead and Odie trailing just a few steps behind. Students around campus gave them curious looks as they passed by.
