Chapter 10 Short Quiz?
While she was in that order, her mother came with a snack and wondered why Daniella was in that look. “What does that look like, Daniella? You’re studying and you’re not in a horror house. ”
Daniella’s hair is messy and her eye bags are turning black because she couldn’t sleep last night. “Mom, I don’t want to go to school anymore.”
Maria frowned. “Why don’t you go to school? It’s just a week after your first school year, yet you’re going to stop. Don’t do things that will make me mad, Daniella! ”
Daniella grabbed the sample formula and solution and showed it to her mother. “This is the reason, Mom, I don’t understand!”
Maria took it and read it. “What’s difficult here. It’s just a math subject, “Maria said calmly.
Daniella’s eyes widened because of her mother’s answer. “What are you, Mom? That’s hard for me. That’s math. Please try to answer if it’s easy. There are some questions there. ”
She looked at her badly. “Why should I answer this? I’m not the student of the two of us. You Daniella, don’t make a scene, so you can’t do your assignment! ”
” It’s not an assignment, it’s from my tutor.”This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
Maria was surprised by what Daniella said. “Tutor? When did you get a tutor to teach you? I didn’t raise you without a brain, Daniella. ”
In Daniella’s mind,” My mom, the way she said that she also can’t answer math, we’re just the same.”
“I know that looks like Daniella; are you saying I’m not good at math?”
Daniella raised her eyebrows. “Can you read a human mind now?”
Maria sighed at her daughter’s annoyance. ” Just start studying, as much as you said, and with whom your tutor agreed to teach you. Where will you get the payment for your tutor? ”
“No Mom, my school has a special program. Your daughter is just lucky, so I was chosen to be taught by William.” She parted her hair at the same time.
Maria’s eyebrows met. “William?”
“Yes, William, my crush since my first year of high school.”
” Seriously? It’s like just the other day …” Maria couldn’t continue what she was going to say when she shifted her eyes to Daniella, who now saw her face waiting for the next word she was saying.
” What’s that, mom? It’s like just the other day? ”
Maria’s eyes blink a few times. “I want to buy pork, but the price is too high.”
“I don’t think that’s what you should say.”
Maria got up and planned to leave. “Just study there and I’ll leave. You already have a snack. Maybe your brain will somehow be equipped with a little more intelligence.” It came out of the hut and left Daniella unable to believe what her mother said.
“What did mom think? I’m brainless!” She took the paper and stared at it, then put it down again on the table. “She’s right, I really don’t have a brain.” She put her forehead on the table at the same time.
“It’s up to me if I can answer William’s short quiz before he starts teaching another subject. But I think as long as I don’t get a high score, just keep repeating it. ”
All day, Daniella focused only on math formulas and solutions, and the next day she did the same, because on Monday, William would give her the short quiz. They decided to start tutoring next Saturday, and she and William were talking about teaching her in a plaza near the school, so Daniella is now trying her best to just remember the solutions even though her brain is not working properly.
Night came, and Daniella stopped solving the math formulas and sat on the edge of her bedroom window. And looked at the moon that was so bright that night. Daniella just stared at it, and it was as if the depth of her thoughts was that she stood up and closed the window to get ready to sleep.
It’s Monday, and Daniella is in the school garden right after their lunch time, but William isn’t there yet. Daniella ate first before going to the garden, and it looks like William ate too, so he wasn’t there yet. Daniella hadn’t looked at William before during class and avoided getting his gaze on her face.
A few minutes later, William immediately sat in the chair opposite Daniella. And William noticed that Daniella’s head was bow too much and her hair was covering her face.
“Did you review?” William asked.
“Of course, yes!” Daniella’s pride.
“Really? All right, let’s try. ” William handed Daniella a paper. Daniella took it and examined it.
Daniella suddenly raised her head in shock because of what she saw. “Wait!! You just said it’s a short quiz. Why do I have to answer up to 50 numbers with a solution for every number? You think I’ll finish this before the bell rings? ” Daniella’s eyebrows were almost completely together as she frowned.
“Did you sleep?” William asked seriously.
Daniella touched her eye because her eye bag had almost turned black from being awake for two nights.
“Slept, why?”
“Looks like you did well reviewing what I gave you. Are you okay?”
Daniella smiled and thought that she might not be able to continue the quiz she was supposed to answer. “It’s okay.”
“Is that so? Okay, you can now answer that.” After saying that, he opened the book and began reading. Daniella was left gaping at what he said.
“I still thought he would be nice to me.” Daniella stared at William, who wasn’t looking, so even against her will, she answered the quiz, and it’s up to her if the bell rings to signal that their lunch break is over.
Daniella was so serious about answering that quiz that she didn’t realize that William was peeking from the book he was holding. William saw how persevering Daniella was in answering what he gave, so a small smile flashed on his lips and then he went back to what he was reading. Daniella had been answering for almost half an hour when the bell suddenly rang, so she stopped. And she was almost at number 20 when the school bell rang.
” Finished?” William asked.
“Of course not yet, the bell rang, how can I still finish?” she replied, disappointed.
William picked up the paper and looked at how far she had come. “It’s okay, let’s see if you’ve got at least one right.” He hid the paper in the bag and stood up and walked to the classroom, even though Daniella followed it.
