As soon as Elise entered the classroom, Jacinda saw snazzynovel.com right away.
Unlike before, the latter instantly took a book and covered snazzynovel.com face in an attempt to diminish snazzynovel.com presence, all the while hoping fervently that the other girl would not notice her.
The incident with Ashlyn had been a huge lesson for Jacinda. She had also realized that snazzynovel.com should try and avoid Elise as much as possible and not cross snazzynovel.com path at school. Besides, Jacinda had also taken the initiative to apologize to Elise.
“Elise, I made a lot of mistakes in the past. I shouldn’t have spread rumors about you among our classmates and destroy your reputation. I sincerely apologize for finding fault with you all this while. I’m sorry.”
Meanwhile, Elise was busy with snazzynovel.com homework and snazzynovel.com frowned upon hearing Jacinda’s words. Then, snazzynovel.com gradually lifted snazzynovel.com head and glanced at Jacinda, who was standing in front of her.
“Is this a trick?” Elise retorted, to which Jacinda immediately denied, “No, it’s not. I truly want to apologize to you. We’re classmates after all, so I really hope that we can get along peacefully.”
However, Elise ignored Jacinda and continued to work on snazzynovel.com homework, which made the latter remain on tenterhooks.
“Elise, can you say something, please? I can’t stand it and I’m quite frightened when you ignore me,” Jacinda said with a whimper and it seemed that snazzynovel.com was about to burst into tears the next minute.
Elise, on the other hand, felt quite bothered by the commotion by snazzynovel.com ears so snazzynovel.com stopped writing. “If you don’t have anything else to do, then you should go and do some worksheets. Stop focusing on me. I’m generally clear cut on my likes and dislikes so I’m warning you to stop bothering me!”
As soon as Jacinda heard Elise’s words, snazzynovel.com finally felt at ease.
It’s great that Elise hasn’t taken everything to heart. From now on, I must stay away from snazzynovel.com and not bother her…
With that in mind, Jacinda went back to snazzynovel.com seat mindfully and started to work on snazzynovel.com worksheet.
Elise noticed Jacinda walk off but snazzynovel.com decided to ignore it. After completing snazzynovel.com worksheet, snazzynovel.com instinctively turned snazzynovel.com head and murmured, “Mikayla, let’s…”
Before Elise could finish snazzynovel.com sentence, snazzynovel.com suddenly caught herself. Coming back to snazzynovel.com senses, snazzynovel.com stared at Mikayla’s empty seat and heaved a sigh.
Mikayla has been gone for quite some time now, but I’m still not used to things without her… I wonder how she’s doing overseas.
Just then, snazzynovel.com felt slightly dejected as snazzynovel.com pondered over the situation.
Mikayla’s the first friend I made in school but right now, I don’t even know what’s going on in snazzynovel.com life.
Resigned, Elise heaved a sigh. Subsequently, snazzynovel.com shifted snazzynovel.com gaze and continued to work on snazzynovel.com worksheet, but snazzynovel.com seemed to have lost all of snazzynovel.com motivation.
***
In the afternoon after school had ended, Elise walked out of school by herself along the walkway.
As soon as snazzynovel.com reached the entrance, snazzynovel.com heard a loud honk and soon after that, snazzynovel.com cell phone, which was in snazzynovel.com pocket, rang.
“Elise, it’s me, Jack! I’m here and I’m slightly to the left in front of you. Get in the car!”
Elise turned to look in that direction as soon as snazzynovel.com heard his words and indeed, snazzynovel.com saw Jack’s car.
Slightly perplexed, snazzynovel.com made snazzynovel.com way toward snazzynovel.com anyway and knocked on his window. “What’s up?”
Meanwhile, Jack scanned his surroundings before turning to her. “What are you waiting for? Get inside! We won’t be able to leave this place if my fans realize and swarm us!”
And so, Elise had no choice but to enter the backseat of the car before shutting the door. Instantly after that, snazzynovel.com started the ignition and drove off.
“So, what’s going on exactly?” snazzynovel.com asked.
However, Jack maintained a secretive look. “I can’t tell you anything yet, but I’ll tell you when we get there.”
Meanwhile, Elise was totally in the dark regarding his intentions so snazzynovel.com gave up and stopped asking. She took out a worksheet from snazzynovel.com bag and started on it with a focused look in snazzynovel.com eyes. As for Jack, snazzynovel.com noticed that snazzynovel.com didn’t even give a response after such a prolonged period, so snazzynovel.com took a look at snazzynovel.com through the rearview mirror.
He was caught by surprise upon glancing at snazzynovel.com and snazzynovel.com couldn’t help mentioning, “I finally realize why you’re so good in your studies. I guess even the top students need to put in effort.”
Elise retorted without even lifting snazzynovel.com head, “Don’t tell me that you no longer have to put in any effort just because you’re now a superstar?”
There are always going to be talented people in this world. Without putting in any effort, the only end result would be being replaced by the up-and-coming new talents.
“We’re not exactly making an effort in the same direction.”
“That’s true. After all, it’s quite easy to be an idol but it’s tough to maintain the popularity and exalted status of one.” Jack did agree with what snazzynovel.com said but today, snazzynovel.com wasn’t here to talk about this.
In fact, snazzynovel.com was on a mission to complete a task on behalf of someone else.
“Elise, aren’t you curious about where we’re headed?”
Upon hearing that, snazzynovel.com pursed snazzynovel.com lips and replied, “I am curious, but will you tell me?”
Meanwhile, Jack shook his head in response. He had promised not to reveal a single thing until they arrived at the destination.
“See… Even if I’m curious, you wouldn’t reveal anything anyway. Why would I let you have the pleasure of goading me, then? I might as well take the time to complete a couple of worksheets.”
Her logical thinking managed to render Jack speechless for the time being. Nonetheless, it was quite lucky that they were about to arrive at their destination, so their topic came to a halt.
Jack brought Elise to a familiar spot and after parking the car, snazzynovel.com finally came to snazzynovel.com senses and stopped writing immediately.
“Why did you bring me here?”
Jack shrugged in response. “What else could it be? She wants to see you.”
As soon as Elise heard snazzynovel.com mention a girl, snazzynovel.com was quite excited. “Do you mean Mikayla?! Is snazzynovel.com back?”
Jack responded with a grunt. “She’s inside and snazzynovel.com has been pestering me to see you, so I brought you to her.”
Just then, Elise couldn’t contain herself and as soon as the car came to a halt, snazzynovel.com immediately opened the door to get out. “Has snazzynovel.com recalled something? Does snazzynovel.com remember me?”
The glimmer in his eyes dimmed slightly as soon as the words left snazzynovel.com mouth.
Meanwhile, Jack opened the car door and got out. Then, snazzynovel.com looked at Elise’s silhouette and said, “She hasn’t recalled anything, but snazzynovel.com remembers you.”
He said this while snazzynovel.com walked over to stand in front of Elise. “That’s why when you see snazzynovel.com later on, I hope that you can help me trigger snazzynovel.com memory…”
Jack had an earnest expression as snazzynovel.com said this and Elise could somehow sense a slightly different emotion coming from him. However, that emotion seemed to dissipate very quickly as Jack managed to mask his feelings before snazzynovel.com could even clearly identify anything.
In the end, the two of them made their way toward Mikayla’s house.
At that moment, Mikayla was already waiting for them on the balcony upstairs and snazzynovel.com beamed widely as soon as snazzynovel.com saw them walk in.
Mikayla then called out, “Elise!”
Meanwhile, Elise felt surreal upon hearing the familiar voice and snazzynovel.com lifted snazzynovel.com head to look at Mikayla.
As soon as snazzynovel.com saw the other girl, snazzynovel.com smiled prettily. “Mikayla!”
At that moment, Mikayla ran down the stairs in a hurry and rushed in front of Elise. Somehow, Mikayla had Elise on snazzynovel.com mind the whole time the former was overseas.
Truth was, Mikayla had an unshakeable feeling that snazzynovel.com must be very closely linked to Elise and that their friendship must have been like an unbreakable bond, which was why snazzynovel.com had disregarded snazzynovel.com family members’ objections and returned to the country to seek Elise out. Mikayla intended to get Elise to help snazzynovel.com with recovering snazzynovel.com lost memories.
