She handed her phone to Chad, remarking, "Let me be the youngest and prettiest friend in your social media circle."

Looking at Chad's contacts, Molly felt like her brother must have been at least 40! Yet, upon glancing at Chad's handsome face, she uttered, "So confusing." "Huh?"

Molly shook her head, "Ah, never mind."

In the afternoon, Coleen and Kendrick returned home early, both excited by the return of their children.

"Mom, Dad, did you rush home to welcome me?" Molly teased.

Coleen laughed, "I came home early because of my son, not you. I asked you to join me for a hike, but you refused."

"I was too busy trying to earn a scholarship."

Coleen gave her daughter a knowing look, "Sure, which professor would choose you?"

Kendrick interjected, "Don't discourage her. It's great that she has such ambitions. We shouldn't crush her spirit if she doesn't succeed."

Molly was slightly upset. The three of them didn't believe in her. "You'll see, I'll definitely get the scholarship," she declared.

Chad comforted his sister with a smile, "I believe in you."

"You are the only one who truly loves me."

Coleen, sitting on the couch, asked her daughter, "Where are you staying this summer?"

"I'll stay at home and bug you every day." Molly cheekily sat next to Coleen, hugging her arm.

Coleen couldn't help but smile at her daughter's antics, "Go bother your father. Leave me alone."
