[Chapter 115]
Sandy kept one arm around David's and reached out the other as she introduced herself to Jacey.
"Oh! H-Hi! l-I'm… I'm Jace, Jacey!" Jacey introduced himself with a stutter.
Then he quickly reached out to shake Sandy's hand. Their palms touched, and that was enough for Jacey's cheeks to flush red.
Sandy did not realize any anomaly with Jacey's introduction and released her hand after shaking his. All her thoughts were on David.
David turned to look at Jacey when he heard him stutter.
He realized that something was wrong. Not only was Jacey blushing, but he stuttered as well. He looked like he had a crush.
David then glanced at Sandy. Her short-skirted school uniform and delicate features made her blossom with youthful energy. It was a stark difference from the Sandy he saw in Fuller Golden Sands two nights ago.
Indeed, her appearance would be extremely attractive for boys like Jacey who were in their confused
stage of puberty.
David then decided that he would find time to talk to the boy.
After all, Sandy was not an easy person to crush on. It would do Jacey some good to give up on Sandy as soon as possible, lest he ends up battered and torn.
'Sigh. First love, huh!'
David's first love that he had maintained for four years had left him in a pool of his own blood.
"I already put in a word with the school, Dave! So just bring your cousin to the administration desk and he'll be enrolled," Sandy said.
"Thank you, Sandy," David thanked politely. "Stop being so courteous with me, Dave!" Sandy argued, cheeks puffed up in displeasure.
"Uh, alright, alright." David raised his other hand to ruffle the top of Sandy's head.
"Yeah! Let's go, Dave!"
Sandy dragged David after her, enjoying the way he doted on her, while Jacey followed quietly behind them.
Sandy directly brought David to River City High's logistics office and within ten minutes, Jacey's enrollment procedures were completed.
Jacey was then brought to his class by the staff in the office.
Meanwhile, Sandy followed David to the school entrance.
"Go to class, Sandy!"
"When are you coming to my house, Dave?" Sandy asked, reluctant to leave.
"Not so soon. I'm a little busy these days, I'll go visit once I've settled everything," David replied after some thought.
"Alright, then. You have to come once you're free, okay?"
"Yeah, I will, I will."
"Then I'll be going to class now, Dave! Bye-bye!"
"Bye. Pay attention to class and study well."
"I will!"
Sandy then walked back towards the school buildings, though she turned to look at David every few steps.
David got into his car. However, the more he thought about Sandy's behavior, the more he realized that something was wrong.
'No way, she can't possibly have gotten a crush on me, right?
'She might have, actually!
'Or else why would she change her appearance the moment I told her to?
'She didn't change when her family told her to.
'What do I do now?
I mean yeah, I know I'm handsome and strong, wealthy, and successful…
'I guess I left a deep impression with her by saving her when she was in extreme danger and feeling hopeless?
'This feeling should pass after a while, right?' Thus, David decided that he would minimize contact with her from then on.
