It's just that others say Grace Winter is just a little sidekick for Hayes Edwards, but Hayes actually hates her.
But now...
The boy is a bit anxious, "Calling me?"
Hayes puts his hands in his jacket pockets, "Just you."
The boy is quite afraid of Hayes, dawdling to the classroom door before Hayes wraps an arm around his shoulder and leads him away, "Let's talk."
Talk about what?
Once the two walk further away, Grace Winter finally snaps out of it.
Helena is excited beside her, "Grace, Hayes is definitely standing up for you!"
Whether or not he's standing up for her, Grace doesn't know, but the boy never missed a homework submission again.
And because he skipped too many questions, the teacher called him out several times.
When she got home at night, Grace Winter kept following behind Hayes Edwards, looking down at the road.
Walking ahead, Hayes suddenly stopped, so she stopped too and looked up.
