Three weeks had passed since the surprise birthday celebration my three girlfriends had arranged for me.
Under normal circumstances, today would be just another ordinary day. But something had been off since the very beginning of the school year, a lingering tension that refused to settle. It was like a faint whisper at the back of my mind, something I couldn't quite grasp yet couldn't ignore either.
And the reason for that unease? Duncan and Raymond.
The two had been missing from class ever since the start of the semester. At first, I brushed it off, thinking they would return soon, but as the days turned to weeks, their absence became impossible to ignore. It was as if they had simply vanished.
What the hell were those two up to? Their rankings in class had been plummeting, their chances of moving up to the upper class slipping through their fingers like grains of sand. If they kept this up, they'd be left behind completely, their futures spiraling into uncertainty.
