A week after school started, the students finally had a school holiday. Mashauva ran into Bruno as soon as she walked out of the school compound.

"Beanie, when did you get here?"

"I just arrived."

"Did Aunt Minerva ask you to pick me up?"

"Something like that." In fact, he went partly because he wanted to as well. Ever since Mashauva started school, Bruno had always been the person to pick her up after school.

It seemed to have become a habit, with or without Minerva's instructions.

"Something like that? Do you want to pick me up, or did Aunt Minerva ask you to?"

"It's because I want to, all right?" Bruno knew that Mashauva was in her thoughts again, so he said what she wanted to hear.

A smile bloomed on her face the moment she heard that, and she went forward and hugged Bruno's arm. "You're the best, Beanie!"

Meanwhile, Frida watched the scene from the side in envy. She thought to herself how wonderful it would be to have an elder brother like her, and unlike herself...

Mashauva thought of something and suddenly turned to look at Frida.

"Frida, we've been friends for ages, but you've never been to my house. Why don't you follow me home this time?"

Frida was taken aback at her invitation. She waved her hands nervously and said, "I don't think that's a good idea..."

"What do you mean? I've known you for ages, yet you've never once come to my house. Your mother is not around, right? You'll be alone when you go home. Actually, why don't you just come home with me every weekend from now onwards?"

Then, Mashauva looked up at Bruno and asked for his opinions, "Beanie, can Frida go home with us?"

Bruno's gaze landed on Frida.

Frida blushed hard, and she took a few steps backwards out of fear. She shook her hands and said, "Really, it's fine! I can take the bus to go home by myself. Besides, I..." "Since Mashauva had asked, you should just come."
