[h1][color=ed1c24]Alana[/color][/h1] [@EurmalEye][@AnyAlex][@akirashadow] Alana opened her bag and took out her phone, checking the notification and heaving a sigh of relief before turning back to Erik with a small smile. She wasn’t that bad at English but she found it boring and all the reading gave her a headache. She didn’t expect someone who was basically a stranger to help lighten the load, though. Maybe her classmates wouldn’t be as insufferable as she thought and she could make some friends. [color=ed1c24]”Thanks. It’s nice to meet you both, I’m Alana and this,”[/color] she patted her dog’s head affectionately,[color=ed1c24]“Is Barley, go ahead and pet him if you like. As long as he’s not busy, he’s really friendly.”[/color] He lifted his head at the mention of his name, tail wagging slightly.
