Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

43 Her first errand

In building 2 of the academy, students couldn't help but turn their heads at the little bouncy thing walking around their building. Penny was small, but white, like a snowman dressed in pink and orange clothes. Her pinkish cheek bounced at every step, her plump hands clinging to the strap of her backpack. She looked like a kindergartener who was about to do her first errand.

"Hi." A group of pretty girls placed their hands on their knees to level their heads at Penny. "Are you looking for something, little girl?"

Penny looked up at the pretty girls and smiled. "I'm

okay!"

"Aww..." the girls melted at her smile.

"She's probably doing her first errand," one of the girls. whispered, thinking the kindergartens were having

activities.

"You are so cute." Another one pinched Penny's cheek. "Tell us, your big sisters, if you need help, alright?"

The girls had to stop themselves from tickling her or

biting her so as not to scare her.

Penny faintly sighed and went on her way. She could

still feel the pretty girls' gazes on her back, making her hasten her pace. Just when she thought the girls would stop, they didn't.

They followed Penny closely, making sure Penny wouldn't hurt herself while doing her errand.

'Goodness.' Penny glanced over her shoulders, puffing her cheeks. 'Why are they following me?!'»

Penny was already thirteen! In a week, she would be thirteen! But mentally, her soul was an old lady. Although she always acted younger in front of people to her advantage, in front of some random kids, she didn't want to be pinched or tickled!

"They'll stop following me soon,' she told herself as she

headed to Slater's classroom.

The academy was big, but she went to this school in the past. Hence, she was very familiar with the place. However, she couldn't help but feel this strange feeling because the last time she visited this place, there were a lot of changes. Now, those changes hadn't happened yet.
