President's Contract Wife novel Chapter 15

Nina has a dream, in which she returned to her hometown and high school campus, where Troy's white shirt was so bright in the sun. He is so tall and proud, with clean white tooth and a bright smile, said to her, “Nina, run, or we will be late!”

Nina wakes up. It is almost 7: 30 and she has class this morning. It takes more than 20 minutes to get to school. She must hurry or she will be late!

Nina gets up at the speed of light, brushes her teeth, washes her face, puts on her white, blue dress, grabs her bag and runs to school. She would rather live in a shantytown house in order to save the money for her room at school.

A long line has lined up in front of the station. Nina sighs and stands at the end of the line. Suddenly she remembers the words of Troy in her dream, “Nina, run, or we will be late!”

Yeah, her life has been running ever since dad's business went bust. Run! Run! Whatever she does, she must do her best.

She takes all the courses she could. She has three jobs after school. She is too tired but can’t have a rest. She is no longer the daughter of Morrison that makes people envy. By only running, she will not be overwhelmed by the burden of life.

If I see you again, Troy, will you know me?

Nina murmurs in her heart. Her bright eyes are covered with a thin layer of water mist. Her senior Troy, will he still remember her?

Shaking her hair and putting all this sadness to the bottom of her heart, Nina Morrison tells herself that she cannot be vulnerable. Thinking of her sick father lying in bed, she is not allowed to have the slightest vulnerability!

The bus has not showed up and Nina stamps her feet in anxiety. The two classes in this morning are very important. She heard that the tutor invited his favorite students, for their comprehensive journalism practice. This is a very rare opportunity. How can she be late!
