In School

"Hi, Alex!" greeted his girlfriend.

"Hi, Vic!” Alexander replied with a slight smile.

Meet Victoria. The girlfriend of Alexander, the

star of Andrea's High School. A figure who always
stands by his side through both joy and sorrow. Someone

who truly understands Xander's nature.

“How was last night? Did you sleep well?" asked

Victoria with concern, seeing Xander’s sleep-deprived
face.

"No, my insomnia came back again," Xander

replied wearily.

"Hey baby boy! It’s okay, you can sleep now

before the recess bell rings, since we have a free period
today," said Victoria, asking Xander to sleep beside her.

Alexander then fell asleep next to her, hoping that

the dreams that had kept him awake wouldn’t return.
