Chapter 393
"Man, how's that fair to us licensed drivers?"
Anthea glanced at her instructor. "So, Keh, can you tell me how to schedule the test now?"
Keh, thoroughly impressed, replied, "Just download the DMV Go app, and you can schedule it from there."
"Thanks a lot, got it," Anthea unbuckled her seatbelt. "I'll head off then."
With that, Anthea opened the car door and stepped out.
As she exited, the onlookers around the car spontaneously cleared a path for her.
Little did Anthea know, a video of her racing was already going viral online.
...
After leaving the driving school, Anthea walked past a café.
The heat was blazing.
She decided to go in and order an iced coffee.
Just after she placed her order, a surprised male voice came from behind her, "Anthea?"
She turned slightly and saw Baldie with two other guys from school.
Baldie continued, "You here for a coffee too?"
"Yeah," Anthea nodded slightly.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
"These are my classmates, Jeff and Vincent Cash," Baldie added.
"Nice to meet you," Anthea greeted them with a polite smile.
"Here's your lemon iced tea," a voice from behind her announced.
"Thanks," Anthea turned to take her drink and then said to Baldie, "I should be going now."
Baldie wanted to say more, but she was already walking out the door.
As soon as Anthea left, Jeff and Vincent Cash curiously asked, "Baldie, who was that beauty? She's stunning!" "That's Anthea."
"Anthea?" Jeff continued, "Which school's she from? Introduce us, will you?"
Baldie glanced at Jeff, "She's about to be my girlfriend, so don't get any wild ideas."
Jeff barely passed his SATS.
How would Anthea ever go for him?
"You're going after her?" Jeff inquired.
"Yes," Baldie nodded.
Jeff looked outside, "She's so pretty. You think she'd go for you?"
Baldie's eyes sparkled with confidence, "Trust me, she'll say yes!"
Vincent Cash couldn't help but comment, "You're that sure? What if she doesn't?"
Anthea was drop-dead gorgeous.
Baldie, standing next to her, barely stood a chance.
Unless Anthea was blind, she wouldn't go for Baldie.
"She will!"
Baldie was too sure of himself.
Someone with a modest background always dreams of being with someone from a prestigious college.
And now, he'd got into Apex Ascent College.
Anthea couldn't possibly say no.
"Just wait and see! Anthea will be my girlfriend! I'll even treat you guys to coffee then."
"And if she doesn't?" Jeff asked.
Vincent chimed in, "How about this?
If Anthea
will
a turns you down, Jeff and
you our dirty socks for a
month. Deal?"
"Deal!" Baldie agreed. "And if she says yes, you guys are doing my laundry for a month!"
"Deal! No problem."
Time flew by.
Three days later, Tanya was feeling increasingly worse, as if she was gasping for air.
Her chest hurt terribly.
But she managed to keep going.
After work, she went to the pharmacy for some pain relief.
Just three more months.
She had to get through these three months.
Leaving the pharmacy, she ran into Hank, who was just getting off work.
"Tanya, are you feeling okay?" Hank asked, puzzled.
"Just a sore throat, buying some throat lozenges," Tanya smiled.
"Oh," Hank nodded skeptically.
That night, as Hank and Jane chatted before bed, Hank brought up Tanya's recent odd behavior.
"Jane, have you noticed Tanya's lost a lot of weight recently? And she looks kinda pale," Hank mentioned.
Jane, busy with her face mask, casually replied, "Isn't she on a diet? It's normal to lose weight."
Hank frowned, still worried, "But
dieting shouldn't make her look that
sickly, right? And I saw her coming out of a pharmacy today! Jane, do you think something's up with Tanya?"
Jane, slightly annoyed, responded, "Relax, will you? Your sister's tough. Nothing's going to happen to her! And does she look like someone who'd get pushed around?"
Hank persisted, "Lend me fifty bucks, will you?"
