The second day of the exam proceeded early next morning. As Hayley walked the stairs, she heard men talking. She came to a halt. Her lovely brows furrowed, unsure of what was going on. Her uncle is talking to her father early in the morning. Was he merely dropping by to quarrel with her father?
"Big brother, this is ridiculous!" Will you let someone like that marry your daughter?”48Please respect copyright.PENANAyhrZQYRof2
She's too young to get married, as I have told you. Damon is aware of this. He's only a prospect, a good candidate," Hayley's father sighed.48Please respect copyright.PENANA6b6crVxJGE
Her uncle was appalled. "He has a ten-year age difference with her.”
"Who cares about age?" Hayley stated. Her uncle was interrupted when she arrived and sat down for breakfast.48Please respect copyright.PENANAADDXR4N1pg
"Good morning, darling," Hayley's father said, his face softly smiling.
“Good morning, dad. Uncle, what are you doing here?” She said. Then asked for her breakfast. The maid nodded and go to the kitchen. 48Please respect copyright.PENANAxBYVATmY01
“And you bad girl, you had a crush on him since you were little. Is this your idea?”48Please respect copyright.PENANAOPmW6YQcfx
Hayley fixed her gaze on her uncle.
Her father and uncle were taken aback. "You should not be saying that, Hayley," her father told her.48Please respect copyright.PENANA360OUAlM91
“Look at her.” Is what her uncle said.48Please respect copyright.PENANAct79aeO8xc
Hayley just rolled her eyes. Then her breakfast came in. “Thank you.”
After breakfast, she goes to her room to get her bag. 48Please respect copyright.PENANAI56X8W0SbG
“Stop there, young lady.” Her uncle said.48Please respect copyright.PENANAO1FW3qHghC
“Dear uncle, if I really stop here, I’ll be late.”48Please respect copyright.PENANAmsedPNULoN
“Stop being sassy with me.”48Please respect copyright.PENANAOmgAZL17cc
Hayley rolled her eyes at him, then walked past him.48Please respect copyright.PENANAOUhF74ncUp
“Hey! You little punk.” Her uncle said. He’s a little frustrated now. “I am telling you if you decided to marry that cold-face jerk, I swear-”
Hayley stopped going down the stairs. Her abrupt stop almost made her uncle crash into her. She looked back at him and with a funny look on her face she said; “Cold-face-jerk. Really?”48Please respect copyright.PENANAMUo2LrjUpv
Her uncle stared at her like she was an idiot. “Yes, duh.”48Please respect copyright.PENANA2RPn4dtDsW
Hayley just laugh. Then she continued to go downstairs. “Okay, so this cold-face jerk is not worth having engagement to, according to you, my dear uncle. At least give me a good reason before I cut off the poor guy.”48Please respect copyright.PENANAn8NBcYDuxb
“Because he is ten years older than you, and it is a crime marrying a minor.”
Hayley burst to laugh. “Okay, if you say so, my dear uncle. I will let him know right now,” Hayley said. Then took her phone inside her jacket pocket then dialed a number.48Please respect copyright.PENANA6bmnJJ242w
“Oi! You little-”48Please respect copyright.PENANAKODATL1zaN
“Rob, I’m ready to go. Please bring the car to the front, thank you," Hayley said. She was talking to her driver while looking at her uncle’s horrid expression. She was grinning like a little devil.48Please respect copyright.PENANAeSe28zhVBa
Her uncle didn't know what to say. He was dumbfounded, stranded in the middle of the steps, as Hayley ran down the stairs giggling.

"I'm not sure I'll make it through the next three days!" Yuri said, appearing dejected. They were currently eating lunch on the roof top.48Please respect copyright.PENANAtQcVmmsy7k
"Well, you should. "Or else you'll be sent to a boarding school somewhere far away from here," Raeven said.
Yuri sighed sadly. “Before, I think going to a boarding school would be fun. But my friends in London don’t think so. They claimed that the staff was overly strict! No parties after 8pm. And you can’t go out during weekdays. And Sundays they need to attend Sunday mass- it’s a must.”
“Now you know. "You'd better do well these next few weeks," Hayley says as she bites into her cucumber sandwich. She was reading off her notes. There is a science test after lunch.48Please respect copyright.PENANAee2IufO8S0
When Yuri noticed what Hayley was occupied with, her mood improved. “Oh! Science is one of my favorite subjects. Later, I'll do better," Yuri promised, a bit thrilled.48Please respect copyright.PENANA7h7SnfHZBT
Angel smiled at the optimism of her adorable friend. “That’s the spirit Yuri. You can do this.”48Please respect copyright.PENANAh8U0EfUqsq
Oh, how about we all come over to my house and bake before studying, suggested Yuri.
“Good idea.” Raeven said. 48Please respect copyright.PENANAjY10r40bGo
So the four young ladies ended up heading to Yuri's house after school. They had just been there for a short time when Yuri's younger brother and nanny arrived.
“Yvo! Welcome home. How’s school?” Yuri asked. She bounced up while walking towards her little brother cheerfully.48Please respect copyright.PENANAcdo2u9dhA8
The little brother is only 7 years old in his prescription glasses. Looking so cute with his light brown hair and small frame.48Please respect copyright.PENANAu80MkEKZ6g
“Oh, my. Yuri, your little brother, is so cute. She looks exactly like you,” Angel said. Speak the truth, the little boy looks so adorable.
Yuri took her brother's arms in hers and led him closer to her companions. “I know, right? I think cuteness runs in the family.” Yuri said while giggling.48Please respect copyright.PENANApdR7CEGApm
Hayley noticed the little boy staring at her, and so she looked at him, but the boy was startled. He blushed, then looked down. Raeven saw it and then smiled. She can't believe that Hayley's charm can have the same effect on a young boy as it does on adults. Hayley exudes a remarkable charisma.
48Please respect copyright.PENANAaEnWIEDya0
"Your brother is so adorable. I'm sure he'll be quite gorgeous as he grows up. Can you wait until you're older for this big sister?" Hayley teasingly questioned the youngster.48Please respect copyright.PENANAWk6SK1lQWR
Yuri held her younger brother, protectively. "No way. Remember that you already have someone waiting for you? A handsome CEO who is mature," Yuri added.
However, it must not be denied that the youngster continued to blush. The fact that the tips of his ears got somewhat red makes it very clear, or perhaps he was just ashamed.48Please respect copyright.PENANAJfxe92sptH
Yuri called the girls into her room after a day spent baking and conversing with them about their crushes and schools and decided to treat them to something amusing.48Please respect copyright.PENANA3freWFZfJy
The girls looked at a thick girlishly decorated notebook. 48Please respect copyright.PENANA5KzKoaXMbq
"Mom referred to it as a slambook."48Please respect copyright.PENANATn5YNazDT4
“Slambook? What, is this where all the bad girls ended up where your mom writes curses and nasty things about them?” Hayley said.
Yuri was horrified. “No. she didn’t do that kind of thing, never!” Yuri said. “My mom said this was pretty popular back then.” Yuri said, then perused the pages inside. “Look.” She said. 48Please respect copyright.PENANAttwu3Nx3IL
“JAPAN? Just always pray at night? What- is this some kind of made up acronym? "Please tell me yes, because I can't fathom this kind of cringey stuff loops around the literature.48Please respect copyright.PENANAIUetjIvX3M
Yuri burst out laughing. “I know, right? I honestly don’t know what kind of of generation my mom belonged to. However, she asserted that when compared to our generation, hers has been the most interesting and enjoyable.
“I doubt that,” Raeven said and was full of conviction. She will never be subjected to this cringe-worth trend ever. 48Please respect copyright.PENANA3aObjZOORF
“Okay, enough with that. Look at what I found.” Hayley said.48Please respect copyright.PENANAFFXFxFg9i0
The girls looked at Hayley, who was a little farther back, leaning against a tall cabinet, browsing in a small collection of thin-looking books. She is also reading a similar book.
Yuri almost cried and dash her way to Hayley. But she was not fast enough to snatch whatever was in Hayley’s hand.48Please respect copyright.PENANAxYIMDbCpDi
“Hey, give that back!” Yuri was already screaming, feeling embarrassed.
Raeven and Angel came closer and peered at what Hayley was reading. Raeven scowled at the book, and Angel cupped her hand in her mouth, feeling scandalized. 48Please respect copyright.PENANA8FSlDV3IZs
Hayley replied with her trademark wide grin, "Boy Love comics." She's making fun of Yuri. And Yuri screamed bloody murder.48Please respect copyright.PENANA1sWxhTBqWl
As soon as the excitement subsided, Yuri claimed that it was just pure curiosity, but that wasn't the end of it when Hayley took out another book from Yuri's collection. Yuri's namesake genre.
Hayley put back the comics. She was now determined. “Come on, girls. This unripe soul here needs some stimulation for it to ripen.”48Please respect copyright.PENANAiF9Vm97GQB
Raeven raised one eyebrow. “And that is?”48Please respect copyright.PENANA94jnM16yVl
Hayley grinned as she made her way to the door to leave. She remarked, chuckling, "Of course, she needs to experience being surrounded by handsome boys."48Please respect copyright.PENANAgzBTIqg4HK
Angel felt scandalized yet again.48Please respect copyright.PENANANyOuDJ4adz
