Rosie added, “He’s just a year older than you, so he’s a great match. Plus, he’s from Annenburg.”
The main reason Rosie called was to convince Elora to attend the high school reunion and to help set her up with their former class monitor. In the past, the class monitor had always shown interest in Elora but never directly pursued her. Now that he was successful, he felt confident enough to ask Rosie to help.
Elora was exceptional, and the class monitor felt he needed to be successful in his own right to be worthy of her. Even now, he still felt he wasn’t on her level when it came to status and wealth.
After thinking for a moment, Elora asked, “What does the class monitor even look like? I don’t remember him.”
During school, many boys liked Elora, but she never paid them much attention. She was always serious, with a cold and distant demeanor, earning the nickname “ice queen.” This made most of the boys too scared to make a move.
Since there were so many who admired her, she couldn’t remember their faces. She never saw them as the type of men she was interested in, so she didn’t bother to remember them.
Rosie replied, “The class monitor was the most handsome guy in our class. You really don’t remember him? We were in the same class for two years.”
“There were a lot of boys in my class for two years,” Elora said. “How could I remember all of them? I do remember the girls, though I didn’t interact with many of them. You’re the only one I stayed close with.”
Other girls were either jealous of her intelligence, her wealthy background, or her beauty. Because so many boys admired her, she didn’t have many friends. It wasn’t her fault, though. They were just too envious to befriend her.
When they asked her for help, she always gave advice kindly, but they never truly appreciated it. At first, she hoped to make more close friends, but eventually, she gave up. Rosie was enough for her.
Now, Elora had many contacts on WhatsApp, but they were all business partners. Though some acted like friends, their relationships were all about business. If she couldn’t help them reach their goals, they would quickly cut her off.
Elora had learned to see through it all.
“Well, whether you remember him or not doesn’t matter,” Rosie said. “You can always get to know each other again. Are you free on the 26th of the lunar year? We’re all getting together.”
Elora, now inside her home, replied, “I’m not sure yet. There’s a 90% chance I won’t make it. Don’t wait on me.”
She figured she would still be busy with work and wouldn’t have time for a high school reunion.
“Miss, your soup is ready,” Tatum’s gentle voice called.
Rosie overheard and asked curiously, “Elora, who just called you ‘Miss’? Do you have a new servant? That voice sounds so unfamiliar but really nice. Is he handsome?”
Elora glanced at Tatum and replied, “That’s my new chef. And Rosie, you’re married!”
Rosie had a thing for attractive voices. Her husband had a smooth voice, and she was captivated by it.
“You’ve changed chefs again?” Rosie said. “It doesn’t matter that I’m married. I just like listening to nice voices. I’ll come to your place for dinner one of these days.” Elora was left speechless.
