Chapter 626
Rebecca didn’t want to showin
The form had been handed out a while ago. Her old self had filled in science, and she hadn’t changed it yet.
Vance frowned at her hesitation. “Take it out. We have to submit it soon. You didn’t really… listen to Darren, did you?” “Darren? What did he say?” Jenny asked curiously.
Rebecca glanced at Jenny and decided not to explain right then.
“I thought about it, and I’m going to…” She was about to say “arts” when Vance suddenly yanked her backpack away.
She reached to grab it back. “What are you doing?”
But he had already pulled out the folder. Her form was right on top, clearly visible through the transparent sleeve: science.
The corner of his mouth curved up slightly. He returned the backpack, took the form out, and said, “Submit it.”
“No!” she said quickly. “My parents haven’t signed it yet.”
He checked and saw the parent signature line was still blank. He hesitated, then handed it back.
The form was due that week, but since Rebecca had only arrived in this dream recently, she had forgotten. She arranged with the
home teacher to submit it two days late on the weekend.
The home teacher agreed, since Friday or next Monday made little difference.
Vance didn’t ask again until the next Monday. “Did you submit it?”
Yet even knowing that, he had still gone after Catherine after graduation and applied to the same schools as her.
That was ancient history now. The grievances between them had long been worn away by time. In this dream, they should just stay far apart.
She hadn’t expected she would still have to take exams in the dream, though. It had been over ten years since her college graduation.
Fortunately, the qualifying exams were already done, or she was worried she might not even pass.
Her final scores were far from ideal. Literature was nearly perfect, but everything else was mediocre–especially science, which she had completely forgotten.
On the other hand, her arts subjects benefited from her later studies in art history and doctoral research. Her history and geography knowledge were solid, so while not outstanding, the scores weren’t disastrous.
The last day of the term was for checking class assignments and receiving final grades. As soon as she went through the school gate, Rebecca saw Vance standing with a dark expression right in her path.
