Madison was startled awake.
"Nothing," she replied as she took a side glance toward Roland.
Her friend saw her actions and also looked at Roland's direction. A frown appeared on her face as a thought appeared on her mind right at this moment.
Meanwhile, Roland looked around and listened to the gossip of his classmates around him.
Right now, Amy, Anna, Bryan and his circle of friends had not arrived yet. However, they were actually the content of everyone's gossip, allowing Roland to guess that they had really not hidden their relationship whatsoever.
"Is Anna and Bryan really in a relationship now? I saw them strolling around the mall the previous day."
"Yes, I heard so. In fact, I heard from a reliable source that Bryan even bought her a new Ay-phone," one of them added.
"Deym, for real? Ay-phone's are very expensive, I wonder when will my mommy buy me one," said another one with envy in his voice.
"Let's stop talking about that. How about the rumors that Roland and Anna actually had a hidden relationship before? Have you guys heard of it?" Another said in a hush voice as he took a side-glance at Roland.
One of them nodded his head and leaned closer, "Actually, I heard that Roland even tried to get Anna back from Bryan, but Bryan just punched him in the face as if he did not exist at all. Anna also rejected Roland right in the face, embarrassing the latter right in front of many people,"
"Well, with Bryan's muscles, those rumors should be true. If I were Anna, I would also do the same and get together with Bryan," one of the girls said with a giggle.
"That's nothing, I heard that Roland is actually gay and when Anna found out about it, she immediately broke up with him."
"Really? Where have you guys heard of these rumors, can the source be trusted?"
The girl rolled her eyes at the boy who just spoke, "Of course, it's from a reliable source."
Hearing their gossip, Roland could not help but twitch his mouth. As they spoke, the 'rumors' that they heard just kept on getting exaggerated.
If it was the others, they would surely not hear a thing with how low their voices when they talked were. However, Roland has already enhanced his senses twice with two level 2 potions, even if he doesn't want to listen, he would still be able to hear their gossips loud and clear.
'Who tried getting Anna back? When did Bryan punch me in the face? And me, a gay? Your mother is gay, your whole ancestors is gay!'
Just as Roladn was about to turn around and confront them, the bell suddenly rang, signifying that it was already 8:00.
Roland ended up sitting back, as the teacher finally entered their room.
"Alright class, get back to your respective seats," he stated as he cast a quick scan around his classroom.
He frowned after seeing that only half of his students were present.
Just as he was about to check the attendance of the class, a group of students suddenly entered the room's door.
Everyone's attention was immediately attracted to the new arrivals.
Who could it be other than Anna and Bryan as well as his group of friends?
Roland also looked over and saw them entering the room without regard to the teacher.
Their group sat on the back, they walked there with confident strides, as they flaunted their 'wealth' in front of the entire class.
Upon a close look, one could see Anna waving her hand around the air. She was also holding a blue colored phone. Those who were aware of Ayphone's model would immediately realize that it was an Ayphone 14.
The others also noticed the phone on her hand, coupled with the rumors, they immediately realized who that phone came from. They could only look at her in envy as she and Bryan sat side by side at the last row along with their circle of friends.
At the same moment they sat, Anna could not help but take a look at Roland in front. Seeing that he did not bother looking at them, Anna clicked her tongue in annoyance as she looked away from his direction.
Bryan also grinned seeing Roland's thin back. He just recently learned that Roland was actually now working in another restaurant where Gustav was also in charge.
He and the men that his father had sent have been monitoring that restaurant even until now. Bryan knew that today would be their grand opening, he could not wait to see their embarrassed look later after he foiled their plans.
A chuckle escaped his mouth as he finally looked away from Roland's direction.
"You guys are late," the teacher suddenly said as he looked at his wrist watch, and then to Bryan's group.
"Has your lesson started already? Then we're not late yet," one of Byran's friend said with a chuckle as the other echoed with laughter.
"Besides, you can't blame us for being 'late' because we have a justifiable reason for doing so," he added.
The teacher's mouth twitched after hearing his disrespectful tone. He held the urge to yell at them as he asked, "And what is that reason?"
He smirked and said with a boastful tone, "Teacher, it's like this. Teacher, would you believe me if I said that a Budi car is parked at the parking lot right now, and that a lot of students had taken a picture of it?"
Hearing that, the teacher was completely enraged. He rolled his eyes and already rooted this student's name on his brain.
"If you're late then you're late. No need to make up some unreasonable excuses like that. A Budi car? Why don't you say that there's a helicopter there instead?"
A Budi car was one of the most expensive brands in the whole world. Fore City was only an H-Grade City, none of the parents would waste their money just to buy their kids an expensive car like that.
Heck, he even knew of the richest students in Fore City College with their parents being well-known businessmen, however, none of them have a Budi car.
And now, this student was saying that a random Budi car was suddenly parked in the parking lot? Why doesn't he try and say that he had become smarter instead? Maybe that would be more reasonable.
The teacher finally ignored him as he took a book to begin calling for attendance.
Of course, even though that student from earlier was present, he actually marked it as absent with a grin on his face.
As the students had already introduced themselves in the first semester, there was no need for them to introduce themselves again.
With that being said, the teacher finally began introducing their programs and the subjects that they were going to take for this semester. He was the adviser for this class but he actually would only handle one subject from them.
After telling them to choose their own schedule with the help of the class president, he finally dismissed the class with still three hours remaining before noon.
