* Just be yourself! * ****“ Isn't that your cousin, Elina? Evie whispered to Miranda. Miranda didn't reply quickly as she stared in the direction of Elina and her friends. Coincidentally, Elina raised up her head and her gaze collided with Mira's. Unlike before Mira didn't cower in fear or retract her gaze, rather she kept staring boldly at Elina as if challenging her. This small action of her's didn't escape Joseph's eyes. For some reason He felt proud and happy. It really seemed like Mira had gone through a whole lot of changes during the past few years. He still remembered when he’d first met her, how much of a scaredy cat she was, but now. She has changed. He was very proud of her. Realizing that the staring competition was taking too much longer than it should. Joseph patted Mira a little to bring her back to book. Mira smiled lovingly at him before turning to face Evie. “ Yes, she is. ” She replied.“ Um, It sure took you ages to reply to me. ” Evie pouted.“

>* Never stop dreaming. *****The trio finished up their lunch and prepared to exit the restaurant.But then they overheard a commotion and paused.At first they were confused about what was going on. Until they listened clearly.As expected it was Elina.She tried paying for the expensive lunch she had ordered but much to her dismay. Her card bounced.“ Ma'am, your card bounced. ” The cashier said politely.“ How's that even possible? ” Elina stared at her in shock. “ Try again. There must be something wrong with your machine. ” She replied arrogantly.The cashier tried once again and yet it bounced.Then she went on to find out the reason for the card bouncing and then she found out that the account was in deficit.“ Ma'am, your account is in deficit. ” She said.“ What!
