"It is shocking, you never had any girlfriend?" Anna asked.
"I think I answered this. I never had any girlfriend." Was it really difficult for her to believe him?
"Okay, but not even a friend who is a girl."
Hearing what Anna said, Alex smiled. "I had a female friend a few years ago. She died."
"Is that the same girl you were talking about in the car?" Anna remembered he said that he felt a similarity between her and one of his friends who died.
"Yeah. Let's go, sir will be waiting for us." Alex took his phone and water bottle and went to the restaurant in the hotel.
"Alex, we will win right?" Anna suddenly asked.
"Yes, We will win. There in the fight, you were showing so much confidence. Now what happened?" he asked in a joking manner.
"That confidence was for right and wrong. Not for the quiz. You are an idiot."
"Yes, I'm."
They saw their sir sitting there. "Come here." He told them.
"You both can see. There are many teams here. But the main competition you have is with Ciax High School."
Both of them agreed.
"I have these books for you. Try them also." Sir said while handing his books to both of them.
"Study as much as you both can. We have to win this at any cost. You both understood?"
"Yes, Sir!"
"Good. Go to your room and I will ask them to serve you there only."
They both went to their room and Anna just jumped up on the bed.
"Booo!! Why we have to study so much." Anna pouted.
"We have to. You want to go to the mountains or not?" Alex threatened.
"Of course I want to."
"So, we have to win. To win, we have to study. Come down now."
Anna immediately came down from the bed and sat on the study table.
"By the way, the bed you were jumping was mine," Alex said in a serious tone. He wanted his bed to be clean always.
"So what happened?" Anna innocently asked.
Alex sighed. He knew Anna will never understand this problem.
They studied for the next 5 hours and it was already dark outside. Street lamps were on till now and from their room, view of the city can be seen.
"Alex, shall we stop here. I'm tired of doing one subject now." Anna lazily laid on the table.
"We have not completed, Anna." Alex complained.
"We can do it later. Let's go and take a walk in the city. This will also refresh our mind. What do you say?"
"We C-" At this moment Alex received a message from their Sir.
'The Guide wants to meet every team. They have arranged a party type dinner for all so that everyone can learn from each other Come get ready till 9 p.m.'
Alex turned around and saw Anna.
"I think we have somewhere else to go
