Kapitel 4: BACK TO SCHOOL 2

- "You will not win!" - Mariana Cid replied with confidence. As? As? How. How could Amaranta Cid, a trashy little loser, win? She's just an orphan who doesn't have parents, poorly dressed and, as her mother always says, a starving person who's just waiting to keep the house. grandmother.

-Extending her hands indifferently, Amaranta responded: "Never say never. There are always exceptions. What happens if, against all odds, I win?!"

-Mariana Cid's pretty face darkened. Amaranta Cid was really so annoying. Why was she making such a fuss when it was clear as day that she would lose the bet? - "Tell me. What should I do if you win?"

-Amaranta reflected for a moment and then murmured: "If my English test results turn out to be better than yours, even if for just one point, with immediate effect, you will call me elder sister and show me due respect as such. . "

"How dare you suggest that?!"

-Mariana Cid was really not willing to accept the bet. - "How could I recognize an illegitimate daughter whose father is unknown as my older sister?"

-In her past life, Amaranta Cid would definitely have chosen a fight with Mariana Cid because of what he just said. She had to reflect calmly and treat those people who insulted her as people who knew nothing.

-Which is why Amaranta calmly responded to said insult by Mariana - "Don't you think you should address me as Big Sister because my maternal grandfather and your grandfather are biological siblings, and because I am a month older than you?"

-More in an arrogant and obstinate way, Mariana continued to express her discomfort in front of all her classmates without caring what they thought of Amaranta- "You are not my sister, so don't even dream of me calling you older sister!" Mariana replied, her face red with anger, almost distorted by so much suppressed rage.

And that was the first time that the entire class discovered that Amaranta Cid and Mariana Cid were in fact cousins! Well, Mariana had always forbidden Amaranta to say a single word about her relationship.

-Looking a little thoughtful, Amaranta responded, her voice laced with sarcasm. - "Mariana Cid, are you worried about losing the bet and having to accept me as your Big Sister if you lose? If you're afraid, it's no big deal if we cancel this competition, okay? In any case, you've been like a scary little mouse since we were girls..."

- "Amaranta, Mariana Cid has always been among the top three in the annual exams, so there is no way for her to lose! You know perfectly well that she will win this bet"

- "Exactly. Amaranta Cid, based on how you usually rank at the bottom of the rating list, Mariana Cid could easily beat you a hundred times over!"

Mariana and the girl next to her frequently hung out together. So, when she noticed that Amaranta was picking on her, she naturally made fun of Amaranta as well.

- "Okay, I don't see any problem here. Since you are all so sure that Mariana will win, why are you afraid of her competing against me? After all this talk, the question is still up in the air if Mariana "She's afraid of losing and having to call me First Sister."

-. Amaranta stood with her arms crossed. She was dressed in her white naval collar shirt and a navy blue pleated skirt with the hem purposely sewn a little too high to show off her long, slender legs. Her pretty face, milk white, fresh and firm with a smooth complexion, radiated youthful vitality.

-"Who said I would lose? I, Mariana Cid, will never lose. Sure, let's compete. But isn't this little competition challenging enough? Since we're competing, let's make it memorable, okay?" -Mariana She was a little shorter than Amaranta and had a darker complexion. That was why, since they were children, all the relatives of the Cid family constantly made comparisons between the two. -

you have in mind for this mega competition, and I will continue playing!"

Amaranta Cid was once a naive, sweet-natured girl blissfully unaware that her cousin Mariana Cid was a scheming so-and-so, and, therefore, she had been played for a fool on numerous occasions. This time, however, she was determined to assert her dignity.

- "How about this? In addition to the bet between us, let's make a book for everyone to make their own bets. The winner will use the money to buy everyone a meal. How does that sound?"

"No problem".

Amaranta Cid responded quickly without a second's hesitation. If the bet had been on another issue, she might find herself facing the possibility of losing.

However, since they were competing in an English exam, how could she lose?.

She would use her score to give Mariana Cid a good lesson in humility, apart from a slap across the face, seeing her win the English test. She could tease her whenever she wanted or try to trick her like she did in the past.

She has to learn respect for Mariana Cid, and she will teach it to her even if it is the hard way.

"Okay. Now place your bets!!"

All students had their own money, whether it was a little or a lot, they decided to make a bet because they thought it was fun and interesting. However, most of the bets placed were for Mariana Cid to win.

Except for a somewhat shy boy with glasses who shared a desk with Amaranta, he bet on Amaranta Cid for her to win.

When Amaranta saw that she would bet 100 euros, she immediately hit him lightly on the shoulder. "Brother, thank you for the support."

-When they were just finishing, she rang the bell for the lesson to begin. Carrying the exams, the English teacher, a young and very handsome man, entered the classroom.

The duty monitor ordered: "Everyone stand up."

All the students stood up and greeted the English teacher on the podium in an orderly manner. "Good, good morning, sir."

"Please sit down, everyone. In the last lesson, I informed you about today's test, so I hope that you have done your homework at home and are properly prepared for this assessment, you know the rules, so there is no need to repeat them!" !, are you ready! Can the students at the front of each row pass the exams to their classmates at the back? Please don't cheat so they can get good results.

-This is how the exam began...
