"I did, but who knows? That guy has been challenging us every semester unofficially. He might swallow his pride and ask his little sister to help him." Ray sighed. "I hope his pride overcomes his determination to get into the star section." a

What a cruel prayer that was.

Renren shook his head. "And Dean?"

"Hmm?"

"He hadn't been attending the school. You should ask him to drop out."

since that incident that took Renren's father's life, Renren has never been the same. If anything, Renren talked about death so casually and often said he accepted his fate. Renren also often says he didn't mind joining his father soon. It was this that made his condition worse, since Renren's illness
