"I can't believe he's really your bootlicker. He didn't even dare to say anything after you tore up his admission pass!"
"Hey, he's just a coward guy, not as cool and handsome as Levon."
Kaea's words were like a needle piercing my heart.
She actually thought my tolerance towards her was cowardice.
Kaea and I had been studying and improving together every day since junior high school.
Going to Saint Andrews University together was the promise we made to each other's future.
But since she met Levon outside of school, everything had changed.
I was sure, in this third new life, Kaea no longer wanted to have a common future with me.
Thinking of this, I threw the torn admission pass into the trash can and knocked on the door of homeroom teacher's office
"Teacher, I have thought about the recommendation to go to Hemsford University. Hemsford University is more suitable for me than Saint Andrews University."
The homeroom teacher looked at me with a happy expression on her face.
"Well, you shouldn’t have given up. The physics laboratory at Hemsford University will make you shine."
When I got home, my parents breathed a sigh of relief upon learning that I didn't need to take the college entrance examination.
They were worried about me giving up Hemsford University for Kaea, but now I had fulfilled their wish.
Just after dinner, there was a hurried knocking sound on our door.
As soon as I opened the door, Kaea's parents, Benjamin Nolthen and Delia Nolthen, stood in the door step and looked at me anxiously.
"Sergio, do you know where Kaea is? She just sent us a message and never answered the phone again. You said she has to take the college entrance examination tomorrow. Where on earth did this girl go?"
My mother, Serena Hayes, also looked at me and said, "Sergio, you have always been with Kaea on weekdays ...."
"I'm sorry, Auntie, I don't know her whereabout."
I interrupted my mother's words and looked up at Kaea's mother.
"Then, do you know where she usually goes?" asked her.
I pulled up the corners of my mouth and smiled awkwardly.
"No, I really don't know."
Since Kaea's mother didn't get any clues about her daughter, she shook her head and left helplessly.
As soon as I closed the door, my father, Giorgino Hayes, poked his head out.
"Do you have a quarrel with Kaea? You often spend your time studying with her, don't you at least know where she usually goes?"
I looked at my father, smiled and went back to my room.
Of course, I wouldn't say anything, so let her enjoy the wonderful night with her lovely guy, Levon!
My mother was the chairperson of the Parents' Committee at my school.
So she took me to the examination room with my father to volunteer early in the morning.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the examination room, I saw Benjamin and Delia, who looked anxious.
They rushed towards me when they saw me coming.
The homeroom teacher also rushed over behind them.
"Sergio, Kaea didn't come home the whole night. Weren't you together at school yesterday? Did she tell you where she was going?"
The homeroom teacher also followed behind and asked me.
"Sergio, you know how important this exam is to Kaea. The exam is about to start, but she's still nowhere to be seen. Please help us think about where she's going?"
I felt sad as I looked at the anxious Kaea's father and mother.
The scene of my parents' tragic deaths in the previous life lingered in my mind,
I gritted my teeth and looked up at them.
"I really don’t know .…"
Seeing me shaking my head, the homeroom teacher sighed and patted Delia on the shoulder.
"Sergio is an honest boy. Maybe he really doesn't know where your daughter is. Let's think of other ways to find her ...."
But I knew I couldn’t find her .…
Levon just didn't want Kaea to take the college entrance examination.
