The centennial was happening soon. | had sent the dresses designed to the faculty a day before the event and
was now heading to the airport-Amanda was arriving today.
What | didn’t expect was seeing Soren at the airport!
He was wearing a large black trench coat, making him look even more refined. As he strode gallantly through the
arrival gate, several young women stopped in their tracks, staring at him like a pack of fangirls.
Unfortunately, | was one of them too.
