"Mama? Who's this kid that you wanted me to meet?"
Little Zhao, age six at that time, was staring at his mother with his big, hazel brown eyes. His mother had mentioned to him once that her high school friend was moving at the apartment just across their house and she wanted him to meet her friend's kid.
Now he can't help but get curious on who this kid her mother is referring to. Growing up, Zhao Chen often fails to develop certain friendships with his classmates at school.
The reason for that, (and only Li Meilin and Mi Wei knows this), is because he was fat in his childhood years. He was so big and bloated that his classmates would often tease him for that.
That's how he struggled with finding friends to mingle with. And because of the constant bullying he was receiving at school, he also kind of isolated himself from others as well.
But hearing that a new kid would be moving in their neighborhood, a new hope sparked in his heart.
