"Nathalia, why do you look so tired?" Anna spoke in a surprised tone. As she was making herself comfortable in her seat, she suddenly notices the look on Nathalia"s face.She had seen Nathalia"s tired look many times before, but this time, Anna felt that it is different this time.
"Oh... I," Nathalia does not dare to tell Anna the truth why she looks so tired. She is a shame to tell that she cried herself to sleep, and had a nightmare last night. "I was up all night playing on my computer."
Anna is slightly convinced by Nathalia"s statement because she knows that apart from hacking into some other organization"s system, Nathalia also likes to play a lot of online games. When Nathalia starts to play, it will take hours for her to stop playing.
Acting like she is convinced, Anna said, "Nathalia, playing all night long will damage your health. I know you love playing, but you should limit the time you play."
As Anna was scolding Nathalia, she is observing every reaction Nathalia makes. She saw that Nathalia released a relief expression; Anna slightly frowns at her, "Why is she lying?"
Anna was about to ask what is going with her, but she was unable to because some loud students from behind were talking out loud
"Hey! I heard that the princ.i.p.al is planning to put a new event for the school." (Girl 1)
"What kindle of an event is it?" (Girl 2) excitedly ask.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
"I heard it was a Mr. King and Miss Queen pageant event, and every cla.s.s has to choose a representative to compete for the event." (Girl 1)
Nathalia and Anna heard their conversation; Anna has no interest in that pageant event because she already knows who will be their cla.s.s representatives and who will win this event. However, Nathalia, on the other hand, saw this as a way for her to escape Anna"s upcoming questions about her.
Nathalia is not dense, she knows that Anna noticed something in her behavior and that Anna is only waiting for the right time to question her. But she is not gonna let Anna have that chance.
"Anna, you heard that?" She excitedly said to Anna. "If we"re going to have that event, then you should our cla.s.s presentative." There are two reasons why Nathalia had said this; her first reason is that she wants to escape Anna"s upcoming questions, and the second reason is that she thinks that Anna is the perfect person to represent their cla.s.s. After all, Anna has the beauty and the brain, the chances of them winning are high.
"Me?" Anna pointed at her self, "Are you kidding me? The chances of me getting picked to be our cla.s.s representative are low." There was a hint of ridiculousness in Anna"s tone, and Nathalia frowned when she noticed that.
"Why do I feel like you are belittling yourself? You have the talent to enter this event, how could you even say that?" Nathalia said with a hint of irritation in her tone. She hates it when some people belittling themselves when it is clear that they can do it.
When she thinks about it, she realizes that she has no right to say that to other people when she is also doing that to herself.
Telling herself since last night that she can never get over her fears and she will always be a slave of her bad memories. She felt like crying right now, but she would not dare to do so because she does not want Anna to worry too much about her. Josh, Zen, and her parents are also worrying about her, and she does not want to add more to the list of people worrying about her.
It is tiring for her to tell people that she is fine when she is not.
"I am not belittling myself, Nathalia. I am only stating facts." The reason why Anna thinks this way is because, in this cla.s.s, her cla.s.smates will surely pick who is popular in the cla.s.s. And the only person who is popular in their cla.s.s is Rebecca, and in the past, it is also the same.
Even though Anna plans to treat everyone in this second life of hers differently from before, but somehow Anna decided to not to treat her cla.s.smates any differently; she pays them no attention. They are not important to her anyways. Same as her past life, she is hated by her female cla.s.smates because they think that Anna is acting arrogantly.
Anna could only scoff at them, "Hmph! They are simple-minded as ever."
Anna hates how her cla.s.smates function in their brains. Just because she does not talk to them and pays them no attention, that does not mean that she is arrogant.
Nathalia wants to say something back, but their teacher sudden entered with a familiar face at her side. Suddenly, Nathalia felt that she could not breathe properly.
Anna who has not yet notice Nathalia"s reaction is staring at the girl beside their teacher. Anna tried to recall something from her past life if she had seen that face before, but after some thinking, she could not recall her at all. To be more precise, that girl never showed itself in her past life. "How unusual, what could have been the trigger for this girl to appear in this lifetime?" Anna asked inwardly.
"Hey, Nathalia—" Anna stopped speaking when she saw that Nathalia is acting very strange. But as she was about to get near her, Nathalia suddenly falls off her chair.
Anna was shocked, she hurriedly got near her and saw that Nathalia had lost its consciousness. Panicking on the inside, Anna hurriedly wakes her brother who is sleeping the whole time. "Brother! Wake up!"
Startled by his sister"s voice, Aaron glared at Anna, but it was soon replaced by shock. "Don"t just sit there! Help me get Nathalia to the nurse!" Without waiting for another word from his sister, Aaron immediately got up from his seat and carried Nathalia in his arms.
Everything was happening so fast that everyone in the cla.s.sroom was not able to say anything; even the teacher was not able to stop Aaron and Anna from running out of the cla.s.sroom.
