"Phew...we managed to submit it right on time." Eugene glanced at his wristwatch. Hannah should be in her last class, so they could arrive a few minutes before the bell rang. "It's been a while since we picked her up together; she would be elated—"
"I asked Sammy to take Hannah home," Arthur said as he opened the passenger door. The tone, almost too cold for his usual self, made Eugene halt his steps.
"...what?"
"We're going to your examination right away," Arthur said, cocking his head toward the car.
Eugene entered in a daze, blankly watching the alpha close the car door and go to the driver's side. Was he angry? But he still put on Eugene's seatbelt as usual.
"We can do it tomorrow, though...?" Eugene said carefully.
"We'll do it now, when I still have the time," Arthur said, still with a firm tone. "We'll have the result as soon as possible and put our minds at ease."
"Oh..." Eugene blinked slowly. "Okay."
