In the late afternoon, the sun painted the streets golden as Laira walked past the small row of shops near her school. The air smelled of freshly baked bread from the corner bakery, blending with the faint scent of blooming jasmine from a nearby stall and you can even see some more flowers on the sides of the street's. Her school bag felt heavier than usual, but she didn't even mind it. Her mind was somewhere else , lost in thoughts about the upcoming exams on February 24 and the weekend plans she had planned to spend with Cash.
Cash—is her best friend. They had known each other since childhood, their friendship as steady as the old bridge by the riverside.They were great buddies and alway stood together on their difficulties.
They always did not leave each other in difficult situations, and had a great trust for each other.

She hesitated for a moment before offering a small, and yet an uncertain wave in return.
That was the beginning
