"LAIA! Someone's at the school gates!"

Now, who the hell cares if somebody is at the school gates?  Hundreds of students come and go through the school gates!

"Uh," When she did not receive an answer from the girl she called, the president of Laia's class approaches her with a timid smile. "That certain someone at the school gates is looking for you,"

Huh?

Based on how the girl in front of her took a few hasty steps back, Laia must've had a terrifying expression on her face.

Who wouldn't when she was just a few steps to answering the question that took her more than twenty minutes to understand until someone decided that a particular person by the gates was far more important than what Laia had in mind to focus on.

"Do you know who it is?" She decides to ask, closing her notebook and bidding her focus goodbye.
