Logan ended his call and strolled back alone, his spirits surprisingly high tonight. The chilly evening air felt almost pleasant as he walked.

Gemma, restless and unable to sleep, went to the window for some fresh air. Spotting Logan heading toward the dorm building, she couldn't deny the stir of emotions within her. After all, she had been at the forefront of those spreading rumors about him. Guilt and remorse washed over her, and after a moment's hesitation, she decided to confront the issue head-on.

Logan had just reached the entrance when he heard footsteps behind him. Turning around, he saw Gemma, hesitating for a moment.

"You looking for me?"

Gemma nodded sheepishly. "I have something I need to confess to you."

"What is it?" Logan paused his unlocking process to face her.

"That day on the balcony, we thought you were a player, and we talked behind your back. I came to apologize tonight. It was wrong of me to tarnish your reputation based on my assumptions. I'm sorry." Logan didn't respond immediately, leaving Gemma in an awkward silence.

"If I've offended you to the point of getting expelled, I understand. I just wanted to apologize; what I did was wrong," Gemma said, bowing slightly in sincerity.

Logan took a moment before asking, "And what made you label me a player? What was your evidence?"

"Wasn't there a photo on your desk with a woman? We assumed she was your girlfriend, but you've always been so kind to Faye, so we thought..." Gemma trailed off, finding it hard to continue.

Logan nearly burst into laughter but then became suspicious. If they had noticed, it meant the photo was indeed conspicuous. What if Faye had gotten the wrong idea too?

Remembering the odd vibes from Faye lately, Logan felt uneasy.
