"I... got involved in something that took longer than I thought it would." Enzan frowned, trying to think of how to phrase this. "I worried my dad a lot, and I missed school. I'm pretty sure he's going to be really angry at me when I get home."

That got an eyeroll. "And then you're be miserable. And hey, did I say this was a competition? Besides, you've got all that Hunter stuff to do."
