Chapter 160
"What are you doing here?" Elijah looked at the little boy with a baseball cap, his tone revealing a hint
of impatience.
This is a parking lot, and if a driver doesn't see him while backing up, they might hit him.
The vice principal immediately explained, "Mr. Bourne, this child joined the school last week. He
doesn't like talking to strangers."
Everyone who comes to this school, whether kids or adults, has mental and physical troubles.
Elijah thought about how this child had problems like Makayla, and his mood softened.
Ian put his notebook in his backpack, picked it up with one hand, and got up all cool-like.
As he walked past Elijah, he stepped hard on Elijah's spotless leather shoes.
Elijah was speechless.
Did this kid do it on purpose?
"Mr. Bourne, I'm so sorry! The child must not have done it on purpose." The vice principal squatted
down and wiped Elijah's shoes with a tissue.
Ian turned his head, a hint of provocation in his eyes.
Elijah glared at him but could only see the lower half of his face.
Because the upper half was covered by the brim of his hat. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
That stomp was intentional.
Whatever! All the kids at this school have some issues!
He didn't need to get angry with a troubled child.
...
At 5 pm In Silverleaf Ridge.
Albina picked up Rita from kindergarten.
She had told Rita in advance that a special guest at home.
So Rita was mentally prepared.
But when she got home, she was still shocked.
What a beautiful auntie!
Her hairstyle, and her dress,were all so unique.
And she was so pretty, like a princess from a fairy tale.
"Auntie!" Rita walked up to Makayla and greeted her politely.
"Sister!" Makayla called out a little shyly.
Makayla visibly relaxed when she saw Rita.
Before Rita came back, she hadn't said a word.
Rita covered her mouth with both hands, too surprised to speak.
"Rita, grandma told you that she's a special guest. She's sick,she thinks she's a child and younger than
you," Albina explained to Rita.
Rita was shocked, "Oh Can I treat her as my 'little sister' and take her to play?"
Albina looked at Violette and then nodded.
Rita immediately took Makayla's hand and went to her room.
Albina approached Violette.
She had been sitting on the sofa in a daze since she returning in the afternoon.
"Violette, shall I pick up Ian?" Albina suggested.
Violette suddenly snapped back to reality, "I'll go! Mom, is Rita back?"
Albina sighed, "She's back and in her room. You better stay home! I don't feel comfortable with you
being so distracted. Dinner is ready. if you're hungry, eat first."
Albina left after saying that.
Violette rubbed her throbbing temples and then got up to the bathroom.
She splashed cold water on her face and felt slightly more awake.
She walked toward the children's room, pushed the door open
"Sister, this doll's eyes can move!" Makayla held a Barbie doll in her hand, her face filled with innocent
joy.
"It can even talk! Press its hand and it'll speak." Rita explained to her.
She tried to press Barbie's hand and the doll immediately made a sound.
