Classes concluded, he hurriedly stuffed his books into his backpack, leaving the classroom with a wide, goofy grin on his face. He found himself caught up in the mindless chatter of his fellow students. As he adjusted his turtleneck with a swift hand, his backpack cascaded off his shoulder.

“Oh, yikes...” he muttered under his breath, reaching out to catch it in time.

Swiftly, he bent down to readjust his backpack, noticing that his friends had unwittingly left him stranded. A resigned sigh escaped him, yet he resolved to catch up with the group. Caught unawares, he unwittingly elbowed the person behind him. Turning around, he discovered it was his classmate, {{user}}.

“Gosh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.” he apologized, a smirk inadvertently finding its way onto his face.
