Sometimes Anna thinks, ‘Is this the benefit of being Brandon’s friend? Get his enthusiastic help?’Peter watched Brandon’s car drift away, wonderingly at Brandon, “Since when have you been so good?”Brandon brushed past Peter. He rode his pink bicycle out of the school gates, leaving Peter with only a brief sentence.“I am also good to you. No need to compare!”‘Better friends with her than I am,’ Peter thought wistfully.Watching Brandon and Peter’s backs go away, a jealous gaze turned to the direction Brandon’s car had left, or more specifically, the direction Anna had gone.“You just wait there for me, Anna! I will not leave you alone!!!”...Like the wind, time passes very quickly. In the blink of an eye, Anna attended Medrano High School for over two months. After a short time, she got used to the way of life in this school, and began to muster up the courage to get to know everyone in the class.Anna became closer to Brandon after the initial hard time. Although the two still ar
“Wow, I didn’t expect Anna to be petite, but she took part in the 1000m run.” Vivia laughs, “Are you going to enter another category this time? Or is it still the same?”Anna glanced at the content of the competition written on the paper. Indeed, there were many sports. Even horseback riding and archery also made Anna more aware of the wealth of this school.“Hmm, I don’t know yet. Let give me more time to think about it.” The previous times, she had to participate because Anna was the class president, and everyone didn’t like participating in activities like this, so she had to participate.This time, it was different. The class rep wasn’t her, so Anna wasn’t too bothered about it.“What about you, Vivia? Which category do you intend to take part in?” Anna looked at Vivia’s bright eyes at the registration form for the sports festival. Vivia enjoys such sports activities.“Hehe,” Vivia looked at Anna then smiled mysteriously, “Let me tell you. Last year, I won first place in the eques
Jessica smiled she turned to look at Alex, “Oh Alex, I want to have the new student in our class take part in the upcoming sports activity for her to expand her knowledge about this school. Let me see, let her do the 1000m race and do the relay as before.”“I wonder if you agree, Anna?” After informing Alex as class president, Jessica asked Anna’s opinion.Vivia’s family is from poor to rich, so Vivia just needs to look at this action of Jessica, she knows Jessica is secretly looking down on Anna. The fact that Jessica does not call Anna by name but only calls Anna a ‘new student’ proves that Jessica is trying to separate Anna and everyone in the class.Because people always feel wary of new things, people from other places, right?!“You must not be talk too much!” Vivia angrily stood up. She pointed at Jessica’s face, voice low.Jessica laughed, it seemed that the angrier Vivia was, the happier she was.“What’s wrong, Vivia? I have done nothing to Anna yet, have I?”“Everyone also lo
“Joe is right! Julie, you can rest assured. I will compile the application and return it to you within the time allowed.” Alex’s confident smile really put Julie at ease.“Ah, I haven’t reminded you of this yet.” Julie flipped through her notebook, looked at its contents, then spoke to the students in the class.“Although it’s our school’s sports festival two weeks away, don’t forget, one week after the game, it’s our first midterm exam. Remember to complete your homeworks. Don’t be too playful!” Having said the last sentence, Julie looked at the naughtiest members of the class, her eyes full of warning.“Yes, we know!!!” The entire class rang in unison.“Anna, are you really going to take part in those categories?” Vivia looked at the application form in front of Anna and asked.Anna nodded, “That’s right. If I’ve already agreed, I’ll have to join. After all, I can’t swallow my words in front of everyone!” Just now, Anna was shaking so much that she couldn’t answer Jessica.Vivia sig
Peter was no different from Anna now. He looked at Vivia with wide eyes and spoke in awe.“You know so much! Unbelievable!”Brandon, who was resting his head on the table, also peered at Vivia, seemingly surprised by her knowledge.Vivia felt the admiring gazes. She proudly rubbed her chin.“Hehe, What's up? Do you surprised, my friends?”Peter nodded repeatedly. He didn't deny this."But," Anna frowned, "How do you know so much information?"Vivia smiled comfortably, “My great-grandfather was one of the main teachers at Medrano after it was founded.”Anna nodded. She understood why Vivia had this information. At the same time, the contents of what Vivia said completely awakened Anna's mind.'Perhaps I'm too innocent, but I did not expect that behind a contest, there are so many hidden meanings…' Anna commented....The Roadlamp family.In the large villa, the pale yellow light from the ceiling lamp shines down everywhere in the room, bringing a feeling of relaxation and comfort to ev
From that moment on, Jessica held a grudge against weak people, weak-looking people, and even herself. Jessica smiled at her father, mother, and brother, but the canthus of her eyes didn’t curl up even a bit. It is ironic that Jessica feels more at school than she does at home. She wouldn't have to wear this smiling mask when she was at school. “So, which category do you want to be in?” Henry smiled at Jessica, and said, “Are there any plans yet?” “Hmm, I th’ll do cheerleading, flower arrangement, piano, and dance.” Every student at Medrano competes in four or five categories. Compared to other schools, this number seems large, but in this prestigious school, this is completely normal. Jessica accepted the delicate porcelain plate from the servant, then she placed a piece of cloth on her lap, took the fork and knife, and prepared to eat the first dish. Henry also received a plate from the servant in the house. After picking up the knife, he asked Jessica again. His appearance was
Amanda snorted coldly and then looked at him, her brows furrowed. She didn’t seem to have much patience.“You have to wait a moment. There will be soon!”Michael looked at Vivia and gulped as she happily enjoyed her dinner.Vivia felt her father’s ardent gaze for her, or rather for her plate of noodles. She smiled slightly. After pushing the large plate of noodles in front of her father, she nodded.“Dad, eat! Hurry, watch out for my mom!”Michael emotional looked at Vivia. He wiped the invisible tears with his hand, then devoured the noodles, occasionally looking at his wife singing in the kitchen.Seeing her father’s stealthy appearance, Vivia smiled softly. She felt that her family was very good now, very peaceful.Michael still had some conscience. He ate only a little, then pushed the plate of noodles back to Vivia, “You eat. My dinner is coming soon!”Vivia also did not refuse. She nodded to her father, then continued to eat noodles.Looking at the only daughter sitting in front
[B Girl - Anna]: What happened between your father and mother? Do they look like they’re arguing?[The Freedom Knight - Vivia]: Not really arguing. My father angered my mother, so that’s how those two are now![B Girl - Anna]: Will nothing happen?Anna looked at Vivia’s father’s pitiful expression. He seemed in great pain.[The Freedom Knight - Vivia]: It’s okay, it’ll be fine. This is normal in my family![The Freedom Knight - Vivia] Don’t be fooled by my father’s fake face. He’s pretending to be in pain so that my mother can forgive him!Vivia is afraid that Anna will misunderstand, so she sends another message to explain the details to Anna.[B Girl - Anna]: If this is real, your family looks pretty funny!When Anna said this, she thought of her weak and seriously ill mother, and her heart ached a little.Today, her parents are visiting her grandparents, so they have not returned yet. Anna guessed maybe they were planning to stay there for a night.‘When will your mother be able to
Clatter!Ring… ring… ring.Anna closed the door, and as soon as she took her seat, the class bell rang. Anna wiped the sweat from her forehead, letting out a sigh of relief.Luckily, there’s still time!In addition to the condition that students receive scholarships, to receive allowance from the school, Anna must be present for attendance on time. In a month, do not let go late three times. If more than three times, then there will be no allowance in the first week of the following month.Therefore, every day Anna tries to go to school on time. Not to mention receiving allowance, but coming to school on time is the duty and responsibility of students.“Anna, why are you so late today?” Vivia sat next to Anna, while the teacher hadn’t arrived. She leaned closer to Anna, asking questions.‘Didn’t she say she was going to Vivia’s house? Why would Vivia ask that? Could it be that Anna didn’t come to Vivia’s house last night?’ Brandon, as usual, was still asleep on the table. But as soon
The place wasn’t very big, so Anna had to curl up to sit inside.A sleepless night taking care of Brandon, plus being in the rain for a long time, made Anna’s face look tired. Even working overtime rarely made her so tired.…Pipes, pipes.In the deep blue sky, the sun is rising, the warm sunlight shines through everything.In a small park, a girl slept under a slide for one night, her whole body hunched over, looking pitiful.Anna felt the sun shining in her eyes. She woke up dreamily.‘Oh, where is this?’ Anna was bewildered. Everything that happened last night flashed through her mind. ‘I didn't come home yesterday, that's right.’Suddenly remembering something, Anna hurriedly searched for her phone in her bag. Today is not a weekend, so she has to go to class in the morning.7:30 A.MAnna sees the number in the middle of the phone screen.After seeing this number, she quickly put on her bag and ran to school. Less than half an hour left, Medrano High School will officially start t
Brandon summarized the story he encountered today for Anna. But Anna assessed, compared to when talking with Ms. Bunny, Brandon seems to use less emotion in her sentences.‘As expected of men, they only like attractive people.’ The bunny suit that Anna wore while serving in the bar was quite sexy, and Brandon liked Ms. Bunny like that, so Anna guessed Brandon was quite fond of sexy girls.“Huh.” Brandon didn’t say anything. He just glanced at Anna, completely quieting her down. Okay, he’s a patient. Give him a moment, Anna told herself.“So, what do you want?” In the middle of a space with the only sound coming from the TV, the content Brandon suddenly said startled Anna.“What?” Anna still did not quite understand what Brandon meant. She felt that she never seemed to fully understand the sentences Brandon said.“I ask you again, what do you want?” Brandon repeated, his expression still as calm as ever.“Sorry, but I still don’t quite understand what you’re saying?” To put it bluntly,
In the kitchen, the heat radiated, Anna quickly stirred the pot of meat porridge, then added a little seasoning, and finally added little chopped scallions into the pot.It’s one o’clock in the morning, and Anna has texted her parents, informing them she will stay at Vivia’s house for the night. Vivia has been to her house a few times, so Anna’s parents know their daughter has a new best friend at school, and they welcome Vivia.Later, Anna also sent Vivia a message, instructing Vivia that, if Anna’s parents call, just say she is with Vivia.Clack!Anna put the lid on the pot after turning off the stove. The porridge is cooked. As long as Brandon wakes up, he can eat porridge.Recalling Brandon’s expression tonight, Anna noticed that he had two faces when he was with everyone.With close people, Brandon creates a feeling of friendliness and warmth. He can smile in front of them and can show his weak face without hesitation.With strangers, or just stopping at basic communication, such
“Hey, who cares about you? Bullshit!” Anna nodded after hearing the first sentence, but when she heard the second sentence, she glared. For some reason, Brandon found Ann at that moment so cute.Brandon smiled, then the two walked silently to the house Brandon had described earlier.Although it was pitch black, under the gentle light of the street lamps, Anna could still glimpse the house with dark orange tiles, the four walls covered with moss, and the moss-like vines, constantly crawling to different positions. The house seemed to be quite old and must have existed here for a long time.Not far from the house was a large mulberry tree, vines winding around its trunk. Some foliage points up to the sky, and some fall back down, looking very lively. Sometimes there is wind, and the leaves sway like scared something.“It’s an old house, isn’t it?” Anna stood in the distance, squinting at the front. “It looks like the house was built in the twentieth century, around 1485 onwards, right?
“The price is fourteen dollars and fifty-nine cents.” A quick voice said, “Here’s your change. Have a nice day. Thank you for visiting our store.”Anna saw off the last customer in the convenience store, then twisted the ‘close’ face of the open-close sign board hanging in front of the glass door. She let out a long breath after wiping the sweat off her forehead. Finished the shift today!Anna’s shift today didn’t end so late. As usual, she could go home at 9 am, but the person on duty reported that she can't come today, so Anna tried to work until eleven o’clock at night.Her parents and younger brother were asleep now.Family members have been doing this for many years. Anna is the only one who comes home late from work, leading to her rest time being later than everyone else.Today is also a late day for Anna.It is past eleven-thirty in the evening. Almost no one walking like Anna could be found on the road. She wandered the streets, following the path back home.Oh?!Anna looked
After drinking a wake up soup, Brandon gradually regained consciousness. He rubbed his head, and tiredly lay on the bed, reminiscing about the whole day.Suddenly remembering the pink piece of paper that had been returned, Brandon jumped, opened his backpack, and took out a very wrinkled pink piece of paper.‘Maybe she have solved that problem?’ Brandon speculated.But before long, the entire detailed solution of the Olympic problem that gave Brandon a headache was written on the back of the piece of paper.‘Really?’ Brandon still couldn’t believe this fact.“Hmm…”Brandon mused, if that’s the case, then this means he has to fulfill his promise to do something for Anna.Really? Does he have to do something for her?The joy of meeting Ms. Bunny disappeared in an instant, Brandon thought for a long time. In his mind was the image of Anna with a malicious expression asking him to do shameful things.Although Brandon had anticipated this, the thought of doing something for Anna still made
“You know, Peter is my closest friend. I felt very ashamed when I saw my mother hurt him.” Brandon sighed in a voice filled with sadness. “I know he won’t notice, but I hate my mother. She is authoritarian.”Brandon was in a bad mood that day, and finally, Anna understood why.“Is your friend getting better?” Anna asked.Brandon nodded. “He wasn’t badly hurt. His face and hands were hurt, but most of the debris went to the outside of his jacket.”“Maybe Peter will go to school soon.” Brandon thought, then added.Anna listened. She sympathized with Brandon and understood why he ignored the note she had sent him this morning.However, Anna must be very careful, in case Brandon knows Bunny is Anna, his classmate.Not that Anna couldn’t tell Brandon who she was, but she didn’t want too many people to know she worked here, especially as Brandon was also her classmate.Brandon and Anna had been here for two hours. It was now past nine o’clock in the evening. The bar has become more crowded.
"Wait? Wait until when? You've said this almost ten times already!" Jessica will bite her lip, her beautiful face is fierce. This afternoon, after lunch, Jessica saw Brandon, Anna, and a few others gathered together. Looks like they're discussing something. Maybe it's a new plan! But for what purpose, Jessica completely did not know. Although she was curious about what they were discussing, Jessica couldn't hear anything. This made her extremely angry. Because she was upset, Jessica hired someone to observe the actions of Anna and the others. The person Jessica hired was the same person who locked Anna in the toilet last time. "You have to understand me. They're very quiet, so I couldn't hear them directly. I can only track their movements, then report back to you!” On the other end of the line, the familiar voice spoke again, her tone looking flattered. After thinking for a while, Jessica agreed Ok so after you follow me they're total remember to report everything to me I mus
