The Woman From Hell

Logan."

"Hey, Wanda. It's been a long time since we last met. How have you been doing?"

I lowered my head and shook it. "Oh, nothing special. You, on the other hand, look very energetic, Professor Logan."

Don chuckled. "Oh no, no. You seem to have lost a lot of weight."

It looked like I had really gone thinner.

Marius could not be bothered seeing me be so polite to him. He pressed me on the grounds of work. I could only warn him helplessly with my eyes to stay calm.

I finally had a chance to speak after some efforts of getting him to calm down. "I probably lost weight because I've been too busy with work recently. How about you? Have things been busy at school recently?" "It's alright. There's nothing special about being busy. You just got to get used to it."

"As expected of a professor. You even have a different perspective about something everyone considers tiring."

Don's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Marius. "Who is this?"
