At Riverton University the next day, Winter was seated below the stage, at once disappointed when she did not hear Frank's name listed among the professors present.

It seemed that she was hoping for too much, but it also made sense—what was she, compared to the people Frank mingled with these days?

She really could not be more insignificant, and imposing on him over something as trivial as her convocation was simply tactless.

Her fingers clenched on her robes at the thought, her eyes stinging as she thought to herself that she should apologize to Frank later.

"It's alright, Winter." Jean Zims, her best friend, patted her hand to console her. "It's fine if he doesn't come. You have all the time you need… Now, compose yourself—you have to give a speech soon, don't you?"

"Eh? I'm…" Winter stared at Jean in surprise.

Jean, however, could see that Winter's tears were gushing, but Winter was not even aware of it.

She sighed, shaking her head. "Your brother is from a different world. It's cruel, but I'm telling you, you shouldn't overreach."

"Yeah…" Winter nodded tamely.
