Orientation Speech [1]

Lydia grinned as she looked at Arvell.

It had been over a week since they last met, but it felt like ages.

"I'm doing fine, but I see you've gotten quite popular. Especially… with the ladies."

Lydia glanced at the countless girls eyeing her with hateful glares.

They looked like they wanted nothing more than to tear her to shreds right then and there.

Arvell let out a sigh.

"I don't even know those people. They looked at me before deciding they wanted nothing more than to devour me whole."

Lydia let out a slight chuckle.

"Looking at that crazed look in their eyes, I wouldn't say you're too far off the mark."

Zen bent forward in his chair and turned to Lydia.

"Hello, are you a friend of Arvell?"

Lydia didn't know how to respond.

Were they friends?

Arvell basically just saved her life, and they both got through the death trap that was the entrance exam, but does that mean they were friends?
