Brandon heard that Anna was talking to him, but he pretended not to hear. He don’t enjoy talking to a bookworm, it’s boring.
During a period, Anna listened to the lecture while Brandon was sleeping at the table. Seeing this, Anna guessed he must not be studying very well either.
At recess, as usual, the new student gets the attention of the others in the class, but Anna is different. No one seems to want to talk to her. Anna studies alone, plays alone, she looks very lonely.
While Anna was redecorating her Russian book, she reached for the orange pen on the table when she touched Brandon’s hand. Brandon was not asleep, he just closed his eyes. As soon as he felt someone touch him, he woke up.
“Did you just touch me?” said Brandon.
“Yeah, I’m so sorry, I’ve just..”
Anna bowed her head, wanting to apologize, but now Brandon was glaring at her, his face cold, not friendly at all.
“Please pay attention! Although I know you’re nearsighted,” said Brandon, pointing his hand over Anna’s thick glasses, “but I don’t like people touching me, nerd.”
Brandon finished warning Anna, then returned to continue to lie down on the table, leaving the new student to look at him.
Being called a ‘bookworm’, Anna was a little sad, but she got used to it because at her old school, everyone called her that. Although he was used to this nickname, no one enjoyed being called that.
Anna sighed, took the orange pen next to Brandon’s hand, and continued to complete a few small exercises in her Russian.
At the end of her first lesson, Anna returned home at four o’clock in the afternoon. She cooks rice, showers, prepares clothes and puts on some makeup to go to Five Rose bar to work part-time at 7pm. Every day, her father is going to the houses of the households to fix the plumbing, the mother is working at home, and the younger brother is taking part in extracurricular social activities.
Anna needed an hour and a half to prepare dinner, and so did today.
As Anna passed her mother, Cart Mariaway, busy working on a fur coat, Cart asked Anna about her first day at the most famous school in town.
“How was school today, Anna? Friends?” said Cart. She was stomping on the sewing machine pedal. Her right hand moved the piece of cloth onto the table.
“Hmm, It’s okay, mom. Everything is fine. Ms. Julie is quite enthusiastic and so are my classmates.” Anna held the canned tuna. She smiled, tilted her head to answer her mother.
Hearing Anna’s answer, Cart curled his lips, his eyes filled with joy. “Let’s do your best! I know you’re an excellent student.” said Cart.
Anna shrugged and left, feeling a little sad in her heart. She couldn’t tell her mother that her friends despised her. Except for her teacher Julie, Anna felt unable to get close to anyone, not even her classmate Brandon.
Although Anna asked for his name, he didn’t say it, on the contrary, she knew his name was Brandon because she heard someone call his name and from the name on the cover of the book that he wrote, Brandon Luisones, a real name. Beautiful and luxurious.
Chewing on the last piece of pasta left on her plate, Anna slung her handbag over her shoulder, the brown cowhide of the bag making her skin look whiter and sexier.
“Mom, I have to go to work. The food is covered. Daddy’s going to come back in a moment. Let’s warm it up for him!” said Anna. She put on her cowboy boots, clumped, and closed the door.
Now it’s time for the night to begin.
...
‘Cheers!’
‘Come on, baby!’
‘Oh, woah, you look so pretty. Would you like to go with me for a night?’
Even though she was a door away, Anna could still hear loud music and vulgar words coming from the men. This gave her quite a headache!
Anna is wearing mysterious black bunny clothes, has a pair of long rabbit ears on her head, is currently editing the position of the half mask, preparing to enter the main hall to work, the position where Anna is standing. Bar staff locker room.
Actually, when Anna said she was going to work in a bar, her father disagreed, saying it was too complicated for a teenager like her, and he was perfectly capable of raising her. But when her mother’s life was in danger and needed money to buy medicine, all the family savings ran out and he could only reluctantly agree.
Everything at this bar is very good, from the employee treatment policy as well as the security order and salary. It is extremely guaranteed. It’s just that Anna finds it a bit annoying to deal with perverts who always touch their thighs and want to pay her for the night.
Holding a wine tray, inside was a bottle of premium vodka. Anna professionally nodded to the Bartender, “What number is the table?” said Anna.
“Desk 15. Row B.” said Oliver, you are the one who invited Anna to work here because she and he have been neighbors since they were children.
“Okay, I’ll bring it right away.” said Anna, graceful footsteps through the crowds.
In this bar, each table has its own space called a small room, each of which can accommodate about five or six people. Currently, at the tenth and fifteenth table, there are five people in all, three men and two women.
When she saw the man sitting in the center of the couch, Anna was immediately stunned. Isn’t this Brandon?
At this time, Brandon was wearing a hoodie outside, his right hand was holding a glass to take a few sips of wine, and his left hand was slung over the shoulder of a girl with flamboyant makeup.
She was wearing a miniskirt, her slender thighs exposed in the air, her collar cut down to her chest, a sympathetic look on her face as Brandon put his arm around her shoulders.
“Brandon, would you like some grapes?” said Jane, who is the girl sitting next to Brandon. Jane’s voice is really so sweet.
“No, it’s sour!” Brandon pushed away the purple grape in Jane’s hand, a disgusted look on his face.
“Then eat something else. What kind of fruit do you like?” Jane leaned against Brandon’s chest, glancing at him tenderly.
Brandon didn’t have time to answer. Jack, sitting to the right of Jane, laughed haha. His tone faltered.
“Oh sweetie, instead of feeding him, why don’t you feed me?”
Jane laughs with Jack. Brandon smiles at Jack as well. They won’t argue over a woman serving in a bar.
“What do you want to eat, Jack? Brandon has no objection, so I’ll feed you!” Jane looked at Jack passionately, her eyes full of sweetness.
Clatter!Ring… ring… ring.Anna closed the door, and as soon as she took her seat, the class bell rang. Anna wiped the sweat from her forehead, letting out a sigh of relief.Luckily, there’s still time!In addition to the condition that students receive scholarships, to receive allowance from the school, Anna must be present for attendance on time. In a month, do not let go late three times. If more than three times, then there will be no allowance in the first week of the following month.Therefore, every day Anna tries to go to school on time. Not to mention receiving allowance, but coming to school on time is the duty and responsibility of students.“Anna, why are you so late today?” Vivia sat next to Anna, while the teacher hadn’t arrived. She leaned closer to Anna, asking questions.‘Didn’t she say she was going to Vivia’s house? Why would Vivia ask that? Could it be that Anna didn’t come to Vivia’s house last night?’ Brandon, as usual, was still asleep on the table. But as soon
The place wasn’t very big, so Anna had to curl up to sit inside.A sleepless night taking care of Brandon, plus being in the rain for a long time, made Anna’s face look tired. Even working overtime rarely made her so tired.…Pipes, pipes.In the deep blue sky, the sun is rising, the warm sunlight shines through everything.In a small park, a girl slept under a slide for one night, her whole body hunched over, looking pitiful.Anna felt the sun shining in her eyes. She woke up dreamily.‘Oh, where is this?’ Anna was bewildered. Everything that happened last night flashed through her mind. ‘I didn't come home yesterday, that's right.’Suddenly remembering something, Anna hurriedly searched for her phone in her bag. Today is not a weekend, so she has to go to class in the morning.7:30 A.MAnna sees the number in the middle of the phone screen.After seeing this number, she quickly put on her bag and ran to school. Less than half an hour left, Medrano High School will officially start t
Brandon summarized the story he encountered today for Anna. But Anna assessed, compared to when talking with Ms. Bunny, Brandon seems to use less emotion in her sentences.‘As expected of men, they only like attractive people.’ The bunny suit that Anna wore while serving in the bar was quite sexy, and Brandon liked Ms. Bunny like that, so Anna guessed Brandon was quite fond of sexy girls.“Huh.” Brandon didn’t say anything. He just glanced at Anna, completely quieting her down. Okay, he’s a patient. Give him a moment, Anna told herself.“So, what do you want?” In the middle of a space with the only sound coming from the TV, the content Brandon suddenly said startled Anna.“What?” Anna still did not quite understand what Brandon meant. She felt that she never seemed to fully understand the sentences Brandon said.“I ask you again, what do you want?” Brandon repeated, his expression still as calm as ever.“Sorry, but I still don’t quite understand what you’re saying?” To put it bluntly,
In the kitchen, the heat radiated, Anna quickly stirred the pot of meat porridge, then added a little seasoning, and finally added little chopped scallions into the pot.It’s one o’clock in the morning, and Anna has texted her parents, informing them she will stay at Vivia’s house for the night. Vivia has been to her house a few times, so Anna’s parents know their daughter has a new best friend at school, and they welcome Vivia.Later, Anna also sent Vivia a message, instructing Vivia that, if Anna’s parents call, just say she is with Vivia.Clack!Anna put the lid on the pot after turning off the stove. The porridge is cooked. As long as Brandon wakes up, he can eat porridge.Recalling Brandon’s expression tonight, Anna noticed that he had two faces when he was with everyone.With close people, Brandon creates a feeling of friendliness and warmth. He can smile in front of them and can show his weak face without hesitation.With strangers, or just stopping at basic communication, such
“Hey, who cares about you? Bullshit!” Anna nodded after hearing the first sentence, but when she heard the second sentence, she glared. For some reason, Brandon found Ann at that moment so cute.Brandon smiled, then the two walked silently to the house Brandon had described earlier.Although it was pitch black, under the gentle light of the street lamps, Anna could still glimpse the house with dark orange tiles, the four walls covered with moss, and the moss-like vines, constantly crawling to different positions. The house seemed to be quite old and must have existed here for a long time.Not far from the house was a large mulberry tree, vines winding around its trunk. Some foliage points up to the sky, and some fall back down, looking very lively. Sometimes there is wind, and the leaves sway like scared something.“It’s an old house, isn’t it?” Anna stood in the distance, squinting at the front. “It looks like the house was built in the twentieth century, around 1485 onwards, right?
“The price is fourteen dollars and fifty-nine cents.” A quick voice said, “Here’s your change. Have a nice day. Thank you for visiting our store.”Anna saw off the last customer in the convenience store, then twisted the ‘close’ face of the open-close sign board hanging in front of the glass door. She let out a long breath after wiping the sweat off her forehead. Finished the shift today!Anna’s shift today didn’t end so late. As usual, she could go home at 9 am, but the person on duty reported that she can't come today, so Anna tried to work until eleven o’clock at night.Her parents and younger brother were asleep now.Family members have been doing this for many years. Anna is the only one who comes home late from work, leading to her rest time being later than everyone else.Today is also a late day for Anna.It is past eleven-thirty in the evening. Almost no one walking like Anna could be found on the road. She wandered the streets, following the path back home.Oh?!Anna looked
