Chapter 44: Chapter 10 Raiput

[Raiput High School] is located in the eastern part of the Northern District of Barton City. If the traffic is good, you can reach the [Norr Beach] (the area where David lives) in just ten minutes’ drive east, but now is not the right season, the sun, the beach, and the charm of the waves have not yet overcome the temperature, so there aren’t many people going there.

The Banshee came with worries this time, so she didn’t spend much time in the car before she entered Raiput with Zach and Benjamin. But before she came, she spent hours perfecting her not very skilled makeup skills. So, when the three came here, for these high school students, it was already after the lunch break, and after two more hours, they would finish school.

In order not to cause a bad influence on the teenagers, Zach put away his cigarettes, took a cup of espresso coffee in his hand, and took them directly to the school’s office.

“Alice Grande.” The principal was a fat woman in her fifties, with two golden chains hanging behind her ears and hanging around her neck. On the desk in front of her, a black triangle plate with a gold rim was written ‘Principal West’.

Holding a form in her hand, she looked at it seriously: “Have you always been receiving family education?”

The principal put the form down, took off her glasses, looked at Alice, who was nervous, and smiled slightly: “Don’t be nervous. Before I entered high school, I was also receiving a family education. In our days, women were not qualified to go to school. Look at me now. I am in charge of the best high school in Barton.”

Alice lowered her head a little shyly, and Principal West looked at Zach: “The first semester began less than a month ago, so it is not too late to start school. However, in order to better understand your sister’s progress, we still have to arrange some tests.”

Zach patted Alice. Of course, they were not here to enroll Alice at the high school, but to find an excuse to be able to walk around in Raiput.

“In fact, we are still deciding.” Zach smiled and looked at the principal: “We are engaged in a traditional family business, and it is also not easy for Alice to get close to strangers. Whether she is willing to come to the school or not, we want to respect her choice.”

Principal West nodded. The surname of ‘Grande’ was quite famous recently. She also saw it quite often in the newspaper. By virtue of her first impression, with such an introverted personality as Alice, she did not think that Alice could have a happy life on campus.

“Fortunately, Alice and Lola Barton of your school became friends.” Zach looked at the principal, “So we want her to feel the environment first with the help of her friends. I wonder if it is possible? ”

Since the last name of ” Barton ” was mentioned, Principal West nodded in understanding and said with a smile: “Lola is also a first-year student. If Alice enters school, she will be in the same year. I think Lola will not refuse to take her friend around to look around.”

“That would be very kind of you.” Zach smiled gratefully.

Principal West picked up the phone, notified the school affairs office to get three passes, made a simple arrangement, and sent three people out of the office.

On Raiput’s school broadcast station, “will Lola Barton please go to the school Affairs office.” was being repeatedly broadcasted. Alice sat in her chair, nervous and excited, waiting.

It didn’t take long for a girl wearing high-heeled leather boots to rush into the office.

“I swear! I definitely didn’t mean to say that Miss Souvestre’s chin looks like a butt. It was just a joke! Please don’t tell my parents! Principal West hasn’t notified my parents, has she?!”

Lola who had just rushed in was lying on the guard rail of the reception desk of the School Affairs Office, anxiously explaining to the fat girl eating snacks inside.

The fat girl stared blankly at Lola, pointing behind her. Lola turned around, her anxiety turned into a surprise, and she ran to Alice in two steps: “Alice! Why are you here!” Of course, the girl didn’t forget the person next to him: “Hi! Benjamin! You are here too! Hi, uh, another brother of Alice, hello.”

Alice’s nervousness also disappeared, pointing to the pass on her chest, “We came to visit. Principal West asked you to guide us.”

“Really?” Lola patted her chest in excitement, obviously she was relieved. Because she was not in trouble again!

“Then can I skip the last class?” Lola turned her head and looked at the fat girl. The fat girl rolled her eyes and said. “No!”

Lola lowered her head in disappointment, but immediately she became happy again. Since it was a visit, the time it would take was going to be uncertain!

“Let’s go!” Lola pulled Alice’s hand and rushed out.

“Hahaha!” The fat girl laughed all of sudden, and made four people jump. She raised her fat palm while laughing, “Miss Souvestre! Hahaha, her chin looks like a butt! this is great!” This girl’s reaction speed is very strange.

Lola didn’t care about the chips on the fat palm. She high-fived the girl and put a finger in front of her mouth: “Hush~”

The fat girl raised her chin and gave an ‘understood’ expression, and then carried on eating her snacks.

Lola is a very responsible tour guide. Now the other students were in class. There were only four people in the corridor. Lola was constantly introducing what this was and what that was.

Occasionally, she would pull Alice near the window of the classroom door, and tell her about the gossips of the teachers that were in the class, including that butt chin…

Looking at Lola’s appearance, all three were quite relieved, it meant that Kyle’s situation was not that bad.

“This is my locker.” Lola opened her locker. The inside of the locker was covered with stickers of various shapes, as well as photos. Benjamin was embarrassed to find that there was a photo of himself… Zach stood aside silently because there was a small mirror inside the locker, there was always nothing wrong with being cautious.

Lola shoved the books in the bag back into the locker, took out the snacks, and put them back in the empty backpack.

Alice asked with some worry: “Are you really not going to class?”

“Of course not!” Lola exaggeratedly said: “It will be an experimental class next! I am telling you that last year a freshman burned his eyebrows in an experimental class. I need my eyebrows! So I decided to skip all the experimental classes this semester!”

Alice touched her eyebrows blankly. It seems like she has one more thing that she needs to fear in the world now.

Zach shook his head helplessly. This girl’s logic is a little weird. Zach blinked at Alice, trying to remind the Banshee.

Alice understood, and asked softly, “How is your brother now? The day after tomorrow is Beavers versus Sea Lions. How’s Kyle’s preparation going?”

Lola’s movements slowed down. Her face started to have worried expressions: “Kyle gave up rugby, he quitted from the team.”

Although Alice already knew this, she tried to be as surprised as possible: “Why? Didn’t you say his dream was to be a football player? Is he going to apply to law school?”

Lola shook her head sadly. “No, he had a quarrel with my father about it yesterday. He has been very strange lately, talking to himself all the time, and according to his friends, he hasn’t been taking much class lately. He is like a different person!”

A few brochures fell out of Lola’s locker, and Alice crouched down to pick them up. The covers were covered with titles like “How To Cope with Stress Properly as a Teenager.”

Lola pursed her lips, took the brochure, threw it into the locker, slammed the door shut with one hand, and said, with a look of mingled sadness and anger, “They’re for him. I was kind enough to help him find them, and he told me to stay away from him! Humph! Who cares about him!”

Alice patted Lola reassuringly on the back, consoled her friend, and looked at Zach, who nodded slightly.

Noticing Kyle’s change, people close to him were doing what they could to help him. Lola found the youth counseling materials, and Mrs. Barton found the Grande family…
