On their way home that evening, Arcane said something to Julian about what they had discussed at the teachers' meeting earlier.
They talked about the school's anniversary coming up next week. On that day, the school would be closed and the teachers would usually go out to celebrate together.
"The school owner wants to invite all the teachers to a lunch event. Then the principal said that you are also invited to the lunch event even though you only work part time," he explained.
The principal reasoned that even though Julian only worked a few days a week, he was still a teacher at the school. So maybe there was no harm in inviting him to come.
"He didn't say it publicly, but he told me before I left the staff room. So, do you want to come?"
Hearing the offer, Julian naturally wanted to come. He felt that this was his chance to get closer to the other teachers, including Arcane himself.
