The Author's POV

Chapter 58

"Are you guys headed down as well?"

Exiting her room, Emma caught sight of two girls quietly walking down the corridor.

Because the lighting was good, the features of the two girls became more apparent. Both of them had flawless white skin that was devoid of any imperfections. Their hair, which were black and brown respectively, gently cascaded on their back, stopping right before their waist.

On the left, Amanda wore tight black pants along with a white turtle neck sweater that covered part of her neck. Melissa on the other hand wore a simple brown cardigan, a plain white shirt, and some jeans.

As they walked, Amanda's cold demeanor contrasted perfectly with Melissa's arrogant and overbearing one creating this picture-like scene. It was like seeing a pair of phoenixes.

Jogging to catch up to them, Emma brushed her hair to the side and stopped right when she was about an arm's length away from them.

Pouting slightly, Emma sourly looked at Amanda and Melissa before saying

"Hey come on, why didn't you guys stop and waited for me?"

Looking at Emma from the corner of her eyes, Melissa responded

"Would it have made a difference?"

Turning her head towards Melissa, Emma looked at her sharply before saying

"What...no, but it's still common courtesy to wait for your friend"

"...sure, whatever makes you feel better"

"Ugh, seriously what am I gonna do with you."

Shaking her head at Melissa's lackluster response, Emma looked at Amanda who remained quiet the whole time.

"..."

Avoiding Emma's eyes, Amanda looked around the corridor. It was apparent that she didn't want to talk.

Rolling her eyes, Emma facepalmed.

"What am I gonna do with you guys..."

Though they had known each other for about two months, the distance between them didn't shrink at all during the time they had spent together.

No matter how much she tried to socialize and interact with them, they would always keep her at arm's length away.

This was especially so for Amanda, who was always curt and polite, treating everyone as if they were a stranger.

In the end, Emma was left totally helpless when interacting with these two.

Letting out a sigh, Emma thought for a bit before saying

"...say, don't you guys find Jin a bit weird these days?"

As soon as the word 'Jin' escaped from Emma's mouth, Melissa's face darkened

"Don't even mention the name of that guy..."

Halfway through her sentence, Melissa held her stomach and continued

"...crap, I'm already starting to lose my appetite thinking about him"

"No, seriously. He feels a bit off these days..."
