Zinnia said, “Yannis, you won’t believe this. My deskmate aced math, language, biology, and geography. I feel like my brain has gone missing.”

With the parent–teacher meeting matter resolved, Zinnia let it go. She wasn’t one to be petty. Once something was over, she wouldn’t think about it.

She propped her chin in both hands and watched Yannis tidy up the desk while sharing school stories with

him.

She felt her deskmate, Lydia, was absolutely brilliant. Zinnia even felt lucky and honored to be sitting with her.

In fact, Zinnia didn’t feel a trace of jealousy. Lydia was always buried in books, so Zinnia felt Lydia deserved top scores.

“You’re amazing, too. You’re great at medicine and playing the zither,” Yannis said.

As Yannis watched her share so animatedly, a warm sense of satisfaction welled up in his heart.

“It’s all thanks to Master. He’s the absolute best. There’s nothing he can’t do,” Zinnia blurted out.

Yannis asked, “Zinnia, did your master teach you to play the zither?”

He thought of everything that had happened over the past couple of days. Many things had taken place these days, and Yannis just hadn’t found the right moment to ask Zinnia.

“Yes.” At the mention of her master, Zinnia rested her chubby cheeks in her palms, and her expression was clouded with worry.

It had been three months since she last saw her master. She wondered how he was doing. Somehow, she felt so anxious every time she thought about him.

“Zinnia, I’ve never asked before. Do you know who your master is?” asked Yannis.

Yannis sat down, and his expression turned serious as if he was preparing for a meaningful conversation.

Not long ago, he investigated the small town where Zinnia used to live. It was a renowned large–scale herb cultivation base that supplied both the government and major pharmaceutical companies.

Fields of medicinal herbs stretched as far as the eye could see. They were all in Zinnia’s name and were transferred to her a year ago when she turned sixteen.
