At the Brink

Sarah feels the need to be on guard after sensing that Glenn is acting odd. 

For some reason, this reminds her of their meeting a year ago – days before the Acquaintance Party, weeks after she entered the academy. Just like now, he's the first one to approach her. 

Sarah didn't know who he was back then, and the moment he acted as if she did, she began seeing him as this handsome husk with a huge head. Glenn did have the charms and the appeal, but there's just something off about him that she couldn't quite place.

It was a peculiar encounter.

"You're that Sarah, aren't you?" was what he had asked her at the time – his very first words to her.

"And what if I am?" was what she simply replied to him, quietly stunned by how attractive he was – her very first impression of him.

Sarah was a little bit entranced by Glenn at first.
