Nathan stands there, momentarily taken aback by Emily's formal greeting. He quickly recovers and offers her a warm smile, trying to ease the tension in the room. "Good morning, Emily," Nathan replies, his voice filled with genuine kindness. "It's a pleasure to meet you too. I'm glad to have you here as our company's scholar." Emily raises her head slightly, her eyes still filled with uncertainty. "Thank you, Mr. Jimenez. I appreciate the opportunity." He just stands there in front of her, not saying anything when the Dean suddenly speaks again. “If Mr. Jimenez would like to, can you tour Emily around if it's not a burden?” The Dean states with hesitation but smiles widely after Nathan nods in agreement. After the door opens, Emily is still in a state of hesitation before going out. Nathan tours her in every corner of the school, but he can notice the way Emily tries to distance herself. It’s almost as if he has some contagious disease. “Emily, what’s—” He is just about to ask Emil
Nathan was sitting patiently in their small living room as he waited for his dad to come home. He told him that he’ll come for him tonight. He was busy reading books for a school project when suddenly the doorbell rang. He threw his book on the floor and immediately stood up from the floor. “Dad—” His excitement was cut off when he saw a middle aged man standing on their front door looking so clean with his white polo that was tucked in his jeans. “Young Master Nathan, Mr. Jimenez told me to pick you up. Please pack only important things and come with me, you’re moving into the mansion.” He said without a break and Nathan could only nod in daze. He grabbed his duffle bag and placed some of his clothes, school books and picture albums. After placing his bag in the trunk of the luxurious-looking car that the guy was driving, he immediately went inside and sat there quietly. He didn't know where they are going, but it took them a couple of minutes until they reached a big gate that
The next Monday at school, Nathan tried to find Emily, seeking the comfort of a familiar face in the midst of the chaos his life had become. He knows, the moment he saw her crying, all he wanted to do was to protect her from everything and everyone. He scans the crowded hallway, his eyes darting from one corner to another, until he spots her sitting alone, trying to blend into the background. With a glimmer of hope, he makes his way towards her, determined to reconnect and find comfort in their friendship. As he approaches Emily, he notices her subtle attempts to avoid eye contact, her body language clearly indicating her desire to be left alone. She suddenly put her earbuds on and looked outside the window while listening to her music. Confusion and hurt wash over Nathan, as he wonders why the one he thought was his friend seems to want to do nothing to him while deliberately avoiding him. Doubt begins to seep into his thoughts, questioning if that night he thought they had a small
For three days, Emily had been trying to find the courage to talk to Nathan, but every time she saw him, her nerves got the best of her. The fear of facing her own insecurities and potential consequences held her back. “I've been avoiding him for so long. Why is it so hard for me to talk to him? I know I need to face my fears, but what if everything falls apart? What if he sees the truth about me and decides that I'm not worth it?” Emily asked herself while staring at the mirror with a wet face after splashing water from the faucet of the girl’s bathroom. “But, are my feelings worth risking everything? I’ve talked to him once, and that’s it.” With a heavy heart, Emily got out of the bathroom but stopped when he heard Matilda’s voice from a distance. “Nathan! Wait up!” She froze and turned to look at Nathan who’s smiling at Matilda before they walked out. ‘I can see the sincerity in his eyes, the genuine desire to understand. Maybe, just maybe, he'll be able to see past my insecur
Nathan's face lit up with a mixture of relief and gratitude. He took a step closer, careful not to invade her personal space, and offered her the bouquet of sunflowers and daisies he had picked out for her. “I brought these for you. Sunflowers and daisies, your favorites. They reminded me of your vibrant spirit and the joy you bring into my life.” Emily's eyes widened in surprise as she accepted the bouquet, her fingers brushing against the delicate petals. “You didn’t have to.They're beautiful, Nathan. Thank you.” The air between them softened as they stood amidst the tranquil beauty of the garden. The sound of chirping birds and the gentle rustle of leaves provided a backdrop for their conversation, creating a serene atmosphere. “Emily, I want you to know that I genuinely care about you. What happened between Declan and me, it was a misunderstanding, and it should never have affected our friendship. I've missed talking to you and spending time together.” Emily's voice quivered s
Neither Tuscon nor Kanagawa is close to Hokkaido, so Nathan and Finn Porter arrived at the ryokan late, and after enjoying the ryokan's special cuisine, they had no intention of hanging out in the cold night, so they simply went back to their room to rest.The good thing is that the distance required for the two of them to walk is not too far, and they have reached their destination when they are not overexerted.Although he is very happy that his best friend likes his brother, after all, his brother is particularly cute, but Nathan is obviously his best friend.Nathan replied, "For Carson Boggs." He hopes his tennis improves in the coming year and he shines in the St. Rudolph tennis department.In terms of photography skills Nathan can not compare to Finn Porter's professional, since Finn Porter has started to move, he has no intention of making a fool of himself, so slowly wandered along the edge of the spring, feeling the magnificence of a world of bla
Lunch was served at the hotel, which was a little different from last night's meal, but just as delicious.So it is better to try to find, at least the ground is relatively flat, and able to bounce the tennis ball.The all too familiar card, without trying to think, he knew what it was, not to mention the last time he used it caused such a big Nathan wave.Nathan and Finn Porter spent a lot of time in Gudan Hot Springs, until the snow fell again, and it tended to get heavier and heavier, so they left on a high note and returned.For the rest of the day, as Nathan said, he had no special plans for the trip, other than to see the swans, he was going to spend the rest of his time at the spa.So Nathan, who had seen Finn Porter's actions, and who had been forced into a certain habit, almost gasped, and subconsciously shouted, "No!"Let's just say it's a good thing he's still turning his back on Finn Porter as he prepares, otherwise Finn Porter w
He does not know Carson Boggs, but will not be too shocked, he does not know whether it is a surprise or a shock.It is also true that, excluding the shock of the sudden gender change brought about by this card, how many people in the world can experience the life of another gender?"Can you temporarily change the gender of the card?" Finn Porter's hand clasped his jaw, his eyes curved into a crescent, his face was handsome when he was a teenager, but after he became a teenager, he was beautiful, her eyes were curved, she smiled like a lotus in the water, and she looked beautiful, "I didn't think such cards existed, it sounds really interesting." There were many things that Finn Porter found interesting, but this was the only time he had ever seen such a novelty. No, or rather, if he hadn't met it himself, he probably wouldn't have believed it.In a flash, Finn Porter looked up at the blue-haired boy standing in the doorway with a frozen expression on his face.<
