40 America 1 (2/2)
”You should play with us. My mommy said that the more the merrier.” Little Zoey said to the new kid.
America looked at her dumbfounded, anxious that a kid with her same age, took her hand and asked her to play with them.
Little America snap her hand and firmly said, ”I don't know you! I don't play with a stranger!”
The rest of the kids sliding and seesawing saw how Little America hit Little Zoey's hand. Even Manang far from the playground saw them. When they were about to run towards them, Little Zoey offered her hand and said, ”I'm Zoey, and they are my friends. Now do you know my name?”
Just like a normal kid, America answered her instantly when she asked her of what is her name.
”You said your name was Zoey.”
Zoey broke a wide smile on her face, she then again hold her hand and lead her to her friends.
Tricked by our clever little girl, Little America scratched her head when she realized that Little Zoey fooled her.
From then on, the two became best of friends.
But the harmony between the two disappeared when America started to feel envious towards Zoey.
Her mom began comparing her to Zoey's achievements and aptitude.
”Why did Zoey can do this and you cannot? Are you that useless?” Hearing her mother's ruthless comparison of them resent her feelings to her mother and Zoey.
”Once again Zoey got the top spot and her you are the always second placer.” For her mother, Zoey is the perfect daughter any parents wished for. She is pretty, talented, bright, friendly, softhearted and kind child. She was so jealous of Fatima for upbringing a child like that, and she is rising an always second placer.
Moreover, America is also good-looking, her cold temperament, she was like an ice princess in an ice castle trapped without love. America is also a bright child, it just that she can't move Zoey from being the top student in their class.
Even at the young age, America was already oozing with sex appeal. Her aura exerts and intimidating feeling towards opposite sex.
She wanted to let go of her resent to her best friend because she considered her as her sister and family. Her half siblings, doesn't treat her well because they have to share their father to her.
But her decision of letting her resentments go vanished when they entered high school level.
