“Sure!” Blake didn’t even try to act shy about it and quickly took a taco, and was about to add salsa. “Which one is spicy?”
“Both are spicy. The red one is spicier since we used habaneros on that one. The other got jalapeños.” Aria answered.
“Oh.. habaneros then..” He then took a bite and seconds later, he panted. “Oof! That’s so good but so spicy.. Oh the heat is gone now.. Yum!!! You guys are awesome for making this!!! Keenan, you were right! It is really good.”

After the game, the group dispersed. Some went back to swimming, some played more of the guitar while the others sang along. “Who do you think the girl is?” “He just said she’s not in our year level.” “Could it be a Junior?” “Hmm.. possibly. Who do you think seemed like she would suit him?” “I’m not sure. Given how particular he is about things, he probably would choose someone who could be on the same level as him.” “Like one in the honor roll, you mean?”
Hugo and the others who have visited her house for the first time swept their gaze around the room.Meanwhile, Estela was now listening to Keenan’s update.He sounded so logical that Estela found no reason for her to get mad further. They’ve already taken care of Dawn the best they could. It was not their fault that the wave carried Dawn away even when she was only a few feet from the shore. It was not their fault that there was a sea urchin.She sighed and nodded. “Are you sure all the spines have been removed?”“Yes, ma’am.” Keenan spoke with respect, earning a good impression w
They stood outside of the Speech laboratory. Their voices echoed in the hall. The door opened to their right and the librarian came out.“Can you keep it down!”“Ssshhhh..”Silence.The librarian narrowed her eyes at them before turning away.When they entered the Speech laboratory, they were told to leave their shoes outside,Dawn took a seat. Her feet brushed against the carpet on the floor.The room was cool thanks to the air conditioner. Everyone was separated by partitions. Each cubicle had a hea
Keenan and Blake were queuing to buy their snacks at the cafeteria. Blake looked around, making sure no one was listening. “Bro, let me ask you, do you like that girl?” “Huh? Who?” Keenan’s brows were pulled together. “You know.. The one who got stung the other day.” “...” He looked at Blake as if he was speaking in an alien language. Blake rolled his eyes. “Fine! Be that way! Hmph!” He crossed his arms and turned away from his friend. Keenan swept his gaze around. His brows furrowed. He turned his attention to the cafeteria lady who was now receiving Blake’s payment.
Oscar was rather good in math as well and knew that Dawn’s method was the right one. But the way she explained it was really easy to understand.“You got it.. The others are the same.. Uh--I have to go. I still have to stop by the library..”“Okay.. Thank you..”Dawn nodded, her eyes formed into crescents.Janus and the previous girl had a love-hate relationship before. The girl had affection for him as was expected of a family member but because they’re close to the same age, there were times that she was just being bossy and he was just pushing her buttons too much. They acted just like how siblings are to each other.
Seth Acosta stared at his flash drive and thought of how amazing it is that a High School student could code a game already. That topic was supposed to be discussed in the last chapter and even that barely scratched the surface. What Dawn did was more than what the textbook had shown.He remembered that she had a perfect score on the last exam too. Although, in the two years before that, she had mediocre grades.Like the other teachers, they found it unbelievable at first. But now, it is only to their advantage to have a student who could excel like this. It is better to nurture it rather than nip it in the bud. They didn’t give up on her before, why should they give up on her now that she’s already improving.However, this type of mindset only stayed among thems
When classes ended, she called her mother to let her know she’d be delayed for a little while.“Ma, I’ll stop by at Aria’s house. I’m having her and Valerie read the rest of the draft for me so I could check if I need to change something. It won’t take too long. They’re almost done with it.”“Alright. Just let me know when you’re almost here so I can have Anita pick you up from the bus stop.”“Okay. Ma..”They then ended the call.The rest of their friends got dropped off and the three of them went to Aria’s house.
When Dawn arrived home, Estela noticed the cane immediately.“Eh? How come you have this?” She pointed at the cane.“Somebody lent it to me..” Dawn’s gaze went to the cane on her hand.“Oh? How nice of them! Who lent it?” She helped Dawn sit on the couch.“He’s a senior from the school.” She folded the cane.“It’s the boy who carried her, ma’am..&rdquo
