The school was big.
I ran from building to building, checking every room, knocking on doors calling Luke’s
Finally, I found him in an empty classroom on the top floor.
name.
Luke was sitting inside, on an empty desk, carelessly watching the basketball game through the window.
Parker wasn’t on the court.
And Luke was locked inside.
“Why are you here?”
Seeing me, he Seeing me, he seemed a bit surprised: “How did you know I was here? I thought you’d leave when you saw I wasn’t on the court.”
Through a window, I was angrily banging on the door: “You have the nerve to say that! Don’t you have any sense of crisis?! What if no one came

Through a window, I was angrily banging on the door: “You have the nerve to say that! Don’t you have any sense of crisis?! What if no one came and no one found you?!”
“But you came, didn’t you?”
Luke pushed the door, it was locked.
“It’s locked, I didn’t expect Parker to play dirty, luring me here and locking me up. It’s fine, the janitor will definitely come up to check one by one, I can get out then.”
I sniffled: “I’ll go find the janitor to get the key for you.”
“Hey, no rush.”
Separated by a window, I stood in the hallway looking at Luke.
He casually sat on the desk, smiling foolishly:
“Look at us now, aren’t we like Romeo and Juliet, gazing at each other through a window?”
I couldn’t help but laugh at his joke: “Which Romeo is as big as a bear like you!”

The door was finally opened, and the basketball game was already over.
I knew Luke cared a lot about this game and had prepared for a long time.
After walking a few steps, I couldn’t help but call out to him: “Luke… I’m sorry.”
He turned his head: “What are you sorry for?”
“If it wasn’t for me, you wouldn’t have been targeted by Parker, right?”
The fourth–floor corridor was very quiet.
Everyone was on the playground, the teaching building was empty, making footsteps particularly clear.
Luke chuckled softly, half–jokingly:
“Yeah, I’m so wronged. How are you going to make it up to me?”
I stopped walking, seriously considering this question.
But he laughed again, putting his arm around my shoulder and pulling me along: “Alright, I’m just doing a good deed, how could I really ask you to repay? You heartless girl.”
I remembered that day in the infirmary when he asked, “Then how about
you
look
at
me?”
But until now, I didn’t dare to ask, look at you how?
Luke had a clean scent, like laundry detergent.
The strong arm of the young man seemed to be hooking not just my shoulder, but a heart that was about to burst out.
I heard someone’s heartbeat getting faster.
Not paying attention, going down the stairs, I missed a step.
“Careful!”
