Chapter 10

Emma turned around to see Justin’s cold, handsome face. Her heart skipped a beat, and she felt a blush creep onto her cheeks. Justin, I’m waiting for my sister. But she doesn’t seem to notice me. Could you go inside and call her for me!”

Elysia heard him but had no intention of replying.

With rare patience, Justin added, “If you don’t go out, they’ll just stand at the door, and it’ll be distracting for everyone.”

Finally, Elysia looked up and noticed her classmates staring at her. She slowly stood up and walked past Justin without saying a word.

He shouted in his mind, “Wow, she just ignored Justin, the star of Milton School! It’s usually him who does the ignoring, nor the other way around. I’ve got to jot this down in my notebook–this is historic.”

Leon was taken aback as well, but he played it cool. Glancing over at Justin, he asked with an amused tone. “So, Justin, how does it feel to be ignored?”

Justin fell silent. “What did I do to deserve this? Ugh, this is so frestrating.
