บท 234: New Term

As the new term began, Alex, along with a few others no longer attended the kindergarten. 

Hazel sat in the classroom and looked at the unfamiliar kids around her. Although they were the same age, Hazel had entered an advanced class and therefore, she was not close with this batch of students. 

Seeing that everyone had their partners to play with, Hazel went to Edith and sat beside her.

"Are you bored?" Edith asked.

Hazel was someone who preferred to spend her time alone drawing and doing her own things instead of gathering together in a larger group. Therefore, she did not mind much that those kids did not include her while they were playing.

The little girl shook her head quickly. "No." She glanced at her classmates and whispered, "Auntie Edith. You're here with me."
