Chapter Twenty-Six: Little Miss Perfect
After fifteen years...
Emilie Albreicht took a deep calming breath as she awaits for the facilitator to reveal the last word that she needs to spell out. If she gets the right spelling, she will be this year's grand winner of Saint Therese's High Spelling Bee.

And once she closed and locked her room's door, she decided to let herself fall on her bed, and stared at the white ceiling."I'm thankful of what Jayden did for me,but why is everyone making it a big deal? And there's no way we're gonna have a romantic relationship!" she angrily muttered.Ever since Jayden became a popular figure at their school, she feels like he moved so far way from her, living her behind.
