It had already been two months since Shen Xi started attending Kindergarten.
Today she carried her bag and held her lunch box as she walked to class. She now had a few more friends apart from Wang Pe, Gu Zhu, Fang Qingli and Han Ye. Everyone in class knew she had been pestering the class king Lu Chai for two months now to be her friend but the little guy always ignored her or said some harsh words to her.
Her best friend Wang Pe took her bag as usual and held it for her.
"Xixi Senior Gu game here earlier to look for you"
"Did he say why?"Shen Xi placed her lunch box down and sat down looking over at Lu Chai who was immersed in a book.
" No, he just told me to tell you to meet him during break time"
"Oh okay got it"
Shen Xi walked over to Lu Chai and handed over the book she took from him on her grandmother's birthday.
"Here, I brought your book" she stretched out her hand to him which held the book, he looked at her before grabbing the book. Shen Xi knew he wouldn't thank her so she walked over to her seat.
"Thank you" a voice echoed behind her and she froze, she turned back and looked at him with shock written all over her face.
"What did you say?" she asked him unsure if she heard him right.
"I said thank you" he repeated it and continued to read his book.
Shen Xi smiled before sitting down, Wang Pe walked over and was surprised to find Shen Xi smiling all over as of she was mad.
"Shen Xi? why are you smiling all over?"
"You wouldn't believe it, Lu Chai spoke to me nicely for the first time"
"And you're happy about that?"
"Shouldn't I be?"
Lu Chai who was reading the book looked over at Shen Xi who excitedly spoke about how nice he had been to her and grinned all over.
Next day...
Shen Xi had suddenly caught a cold and had to stay home. Her siblings left and she stayed home to take her medications.
Wang Pe waited for Shen Xi for a while but Shen Xi never showed up, after a while, she saw the twins approaching and run toward them expecting to see Shen Xi behind them but got disappointed.
"Senior Shen, where is Shen Xi?"
"My sister caught a cold so she won't come until she's okay"
"Oh okay, thanks"
She returned to the class with a dejected look on her face, today would surely be boring. she murmured to herself.
Lu Chai looked at the entrance waiting for the silly girl to step in but the teacher came in and there was still no sign of her.
