After Mashauva reconciled with Bruno, she was back to her old self.

She couldn't wait to share her happiness with Frida, but she returned too late that night; Frida was already asleep.

After Mashauva laid down, she thought what had happened earlier was like a dream, surreal, as things were developing in the direction she wanted.

Mashauva laid in the dark with her eyes wide open, unable to fall asleep, but there was no one she could talk to.

Mashauva was afraid of waking up the others if she started fiddling with her phone. For the same reason, she did not dare toss and turn, lying in her bed quietly.

Unbeknownst to how long she had laid still, but finally, she fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke up the next day, the dormitory was empty. She got up to check on Frida's bed and found that the quilt had been folded neatly. Obviously, she had gone out. Mashauva rubbed her eyes. Had she overslept?

She got out of bed about to go to the bathroom to wash up when she bumped into Hailey, who was coincidentally exiting the bathroom.

Since their last fall out, the girls never spoke to each other again, treating each other like strangers. Because of Mashauva's family background, Hailey and Lena dared not do anything to her. Seeing that Mashauva was going to use the bathroom, Hailey could not help taking a second glance after she got out.

"Mashauva," Hailey called out to her.

Mashauva ignored her.

"About last time, we were wrong."

Mashauva was about to squeeze her toothpaste out but paused when she heard what Hailey said.

"Yes, it's true that we like Bruno, but we shouldn't have used you to help us to deliver gifts to him and even spoke ill of you behind your back." At that, Hailey displayed a look of regret on her face. "I'm really sorry."

Her tone of apology sounded quite sincere. Thus, Mashauva glanced at her.

"Lena and I noticed your change lately; it might have been our words that have hurt you. Plus, I also don't think girls necessarily have to be thin to be beautiful. It's your life, your choice. We shouldn't have criticized your lifestyle and appearance."
