POTENTIAL: TWENTY-ONE

ALEX POV

"You know, it's been a while since we have this," Maica exclaimed with a smile while walking beside me.

"Like walking to school together?" I clarified, to which she nodded. She's right. It's been a long time since we missed this.

"Am I included in that?" Sky suddenly asked, seemingly absorbed in the physics book he was reading.

"We'll think about it," I joked, making Maica laugh. We burst into laughter, but Sky still had a serious expression. We reached the school, still laughing at our inside jokes. It was a great time, but we stopped as we passed through the gate.

"I never thought I'd come back to this school," Maica mumbled, looking at our school slowly filling up with students. Delford University.

"Me, too," I agreed, recalling the happy days Maica and I spent together.
