In the following days, Euralia recovered as she used to be. She attended classes on time every day. But now she was alone no matter where she went.
She gradually felt that people around her all tried to avoid her these days. At first, she thought it was just her illusion, so she didn't care.
After class, she was so bored that she went shopping alone. Unexpectedly, she ran into Lily, her roommate, who was shopping with some other classmates.
Euralia felt very puzzled. After class, she went to see Lily, and Lily said she had no time. Why was she shopping with other classmates now?
Euralia actually felt a little bit lonely since her relationship with Mandy broke up, and all her classmates seemed to begin to repel her.
But since Lily didn't want to accompany her, she didn't want to force her, and she didn't say anything.
However, at the moment, she felt so bored that even shopping couldn't light up her passion.
"Miss, do you like this dress?"
With the clothes in her hands, Euralia looked at Lily and other girls not far away and was in a daze. The sales clerk stood next to her and asked her several times.
"I'll have a look again."
Then she put the clothes down and left the shop.
Bill followed her here after she left school. He got off work early so that he could pick her up home. When he saw she got into a taxi alone, he was worried and followed.
Euralia went outside and took a seat at the Starbucks. She was drinking while playing with her mobile phone.
"Your clothes."
Bill suddenly appeared and bought the clothes that she had been holding in her hands for a long time and gave it to her.
"Bill, why are you here?" She was surprised.
"I just passed by and saw you sitting here alone."
"I was bored, so I wandered around alone. Let's go home now." She didn't want her classmates to see her sit with her brother. She was afraid of being misunderstood, so she pulled him away as soon as he sat down.
Bill picked up the clothes obediently and followed her out.
What Euralia didn't know was that there were students of the SY University behind them, pointing at their backs and whispering.
"It's so strange." Turning her head, Euralia gave her schoolmates a quick glance.
They immediately lowered their heads and continued drinking their beverages.
"What's wrong?" Bill stopped and asked.
"Nothing." Euralia didn't tell her brother about it. He would investigate it if she told him, and she didn't want to bother anybody.
She had him to accompany her back home. And she could only talk to the two rabbits.
"Ted, Lola, why don't they talk to me these days?"
She lowered her eyes and reached out to stroke the rabbits, feeling a little aggrieved.
After holding them and mumbling to herself for a long time, she finally fell asleep.
A new day had just begun. Euralia mustered up her energy to go to the school.
As soon as she entered the campus, she warmly greeted all her classmates, but their silent response dampened her passion.
She found that no one was willing to respond to her when she greeted them, and some even directly ignored the fact that they did not want to go with her.
Every time she walked in the school, there were a lot of students around discussing her.
Euralia found it odd, because recently, she was actually attending classes on time, eating and sleeping as usual. Nothing serious happened. But why did they look at her like that?
Out of curiosity, she saw Lily passing by, who refused to go shopping with her yesterday. She followed her immediately and greeted her.
"Well, Lily, you came to school so early too."
"Morning, Euralia."
Lily smiled awkwardly and then quickened her pace, obviously trying to avoid her.
Euralia quickened her pace as well to catch up with her. Lily used to have a good relationship with her. The days she lived in the dormitory, Lily took good care of her.
But why did she give her a cold shoulder now? She must make it clear.
"Lily, wait for me. Did you also go shopping yesterday?"
Euralia trotted over, held Lily's hand and asked.
"Euralia, I have something urgent to deal with. Maybe next time." Lily shook off her hand and left in a hurry.
At the sight of her indifference, Euralia stopped and felt somehow sad deep in the heart. Her friendship with Mandy just broke up, and now Lily even ignored her.
She even didn't know what wrong she had done. And there were many strangers passing by and pointing fingers at her. She really had the urge to question them, but she held it back.
She didn't do anything wrong anyway. A quiet conscience sleeps in thunder!
So she strode towards the classroom.
The moment she stepped in the classroom, her classmates all shifted their eyes to her. She just had a glance at them. Then she walked to her seat with her head held high.
She kept telling herself that no matter what happened, she didn't have to worry about nor be afraid. She didn't care if she was isolated!
However, her classmate Lily suddenly shouted.
"My stuff is missing."
All the people present, including Euralia, looked at the her at once.
"What is it?" The girl sitting next to Lily asked.
