Chapter 146 - Who are you (2/2)
”Did you?”
”…”
”Yes.”
”What did she give you in exchange?”
”Bread…”
”She stole it from my shop! Damn girl!”

The path to the residences was not difficult to find, because she had a map and a phone and a GPS on her phone. Though, the screen was broken, and her eyes were lazy still, she followed the route.
”Where is the damn Blue Residence?!”
She was lost. Yes, Maya Summers was lost in her first day of school, inside the school, even with the map in her hands, and her phone and the GPS on her phone.
”Who are you?” she heard someone call her from the back.
'Again?' she thought and turned around.
”Hello, I am a new student here, my name is Maya Summers.”
Trees and beautiful gardens everywhere. Flowers and benchs to relax everywhere also. Students and teachers everywhere, too. But most importantly, a huge, filled with variety that provided with fuel to the minds of the students, a cafeteria. And also a library not far from there.
However, that stunning cafeteria had the most delicious food, Maya had ever seen in many days in her life.
”How much is the basic menu?”
”Ten silver coins, darling,” the kitchen lady said as she watched the little girl in a long wide sweater look at the counter with a saliva coming out from her mouth.
”Can you make it five, lovely lady?”
How shameless! How can this young lady bargain with the kitchen staff as if it was some messy market?
However… the poor looks of the little girl made the old lady heart hurt. She could make an exception for the day, but it had to be in hiding.
”If you can't pay for it, you should get out of the line. We don't have time for poor beggars.”
”I am rich!” Maya stood up with her ċhėst puffed up. ”The richest in here, if I say.”
”What?!”
The boy in expensive clothes, expensive shoes and polished hairstyle almost laughed there.
”I said I am the richest in here, because…” she smirked, ”hadn't you heard the saying, 'That man is richest whose pŀėȧsurės are cheapest'? (Henry David Thoreau)
”…”
”Goodness, how shameless,” a girl in a fine white dress and golden hair smirked. ”
Another student of the Academy. He is the son of the principal. He is in his senior school year, 17 years old, and also considered a genius.
He was asked by his father to look out for Maya, and to help her if it is needed.
He didn't like that, as he was focused on a scholarship for the College in the Capital, and he didn't want to waste time with a hopeless case.
However, as he met her and starts interacting with her, he notices that she is a genius and even more talented than him.
He is jealous at first, but then… he began to grown interest.
They grow a good friendship, and she falls for him. However, he already has a girlfriend, from the same year as her. Joanna Banks, beautiful and talented, also in the top ten, but admired by many, and also a gentle and kind girl.
He had not paid much attention to her lately as he is focused with the studies, but she is understanding and doesn't mind at all. They just reunite to have sometimes sėx and to share kisses. However, she felt dissatisfied because he doesn't want to take her to dates. She starts to grow jealous of Maya because she spends more time with him. Then she starts to plot some schemes to bully Maya, but then… Ethan saves her unexpectedly.
