Chapter: The Solitude of the Rooftop
---
The chapter begins with the bell ringing loudly, signaling the start of the first class. The previously noisy classroom falls silent as the teacher walks in, her stern gaze sweeping over the students.
She's a middle-aged woman with sharp features, wearing a neatly pressed navy-blue suit. Her no-nonsense demeanor demands immediate attention, and the students scramble to take their seats.
Adam sits at the very back of the room, his posture relaxed but his eyes quietly observing everything around him. His seat is next to Leo, who can't stop grinning and casting amused glances in Adam's direction. Leo's subtle elbow nudges and knowing smirks are hard to ignore.
"Dude," Leo whispers under his breath, leaning closer to Adam. "You've officially become the hottest topic in the school."
