Chương 600: Smarter than Them

Day Sixty-Eight…

~~*****~~

[ At Ethan's School… ]

Ethan had been absent for a while because he chose to stay with Jane, watching over her in the hospital. But today, he attended school to accomplish their performance task evaluation. While he was preparing for the exercises, Mia approached him.

"Ethan, are you sick? Why didn't you attend class for the past few days?" Mia asked him curiously. She was worried that Ethan got sick.

Ethan lifted his head and looked at her. "I'm fine. But my mother is in the hospital. I have to take care of her."

Mia bobbed her head. "I understand. I hope she will get better soon. Will you visit her after class?"

"Yes. I'm going straight to the hospital after my class." Ethan promptly responded. Mia and Ethan became friends. It started during the family day wherein Mia defended him from the bullies.

"How about you? Where is your mother?" Ethan asked her just to continue their conversation.
