After the examinations were over, it was time for the anniversary of Star High School.
The current year’s school anniversary required every class to put on a show—the more the better.
The class teacher instructed the students, “Emily, you are the class monitor, so I want you to work with the art committee and come up with a list of shows for the registration. Please hand the list over to me by Wednesday.”
All of the sudden, the entire class became lively. All the students fancied the school activities the most because not only could they skip classes, but it was also a great opportunity for them to express themselves.
After class, she took her notebook and happily went over to Gordon. “Gordon, do you want to sign up for this? I remember that you are excellent at singing and playing the piano, so you can definitely win first prize for us.”
Actually, she had her own selfish intentions because he was a school hunk, so he was capable of singing, rapping and playing both the guitar and piano. That day, if I get to sing while he plays the piano, everyone will think that we are a match made in heaven.
He was already used to words like those, so he nodded. “Alright.”
Suddenly, Emily turned her attention toward Janet, who was leaning there with sluggish eyes, as if anything around her did not matter
Therefore, she purposely said to Janet in front of Gordon. “Janet, would you like to present a show too?”
Instantly, everyone in the class looked toward Janet at the same time.
During the exam, she gained all the limelight, so Emily really wanted to embarrass her.
Then, Janet lifted her head. “Don’t you play the piano very well? Aren’t you joining?”
“She is right. Emily, I think you should play the piano that day.”
“That’s great. Our Emily is such a pretty girl. She can even win the prize merely by standing there.”
Everyone quickly agreed.
Emily lowered her head shly. “Oh my. You all should stop praising me. I’m just an ordinary girl.”
At the same time, Janet remained silent.
