Chapter 40 Clean up
Mrs. Davis showed a beaming smile when she saw Laura.
“Ah, Laura, come here.” She waved to Laura and handed her a book of praxes.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
“Here you go. This is the one I used in high school, and it’s definitely own good quality!”
Laura took it and then looked at Mrs. Wilson, who was not far away, the one Lucy had mentioned this morning.
“Thank you, teacher, I’ll finish it.”
“Well.” Mrs. Davis didn’t notice her eyes and pulled another paper out of the pile.
“You’ve come at a bad time and just missed this paper. Take it back to accomplish and bring it to me this afternoon. I’ll grade it for you. ”
Laura held all the paper in her arms and nodded again.
After leaving the office, she went out into the hallway, but she couldn’t help but keep thinking – Mrs. Davis is such a good and serious teacher.
…
As soon as the bell rang, everyone cheered and ran to leave.
Laura finished her paper. Suddenly she thought of something and took out her phone to send a text message to Marcus.
[Sorry, I just now realized that I have to clean up today. You don’t have to pick me up. I can take a taxi back.]
After sending it, she put away her phone and cleaned up seriously. As Laura went to the bathroom to wet the mop, she was surprised to see a familiar figure.
“Marcus?” she walked towards, with some uncertainty, the man leaning against the porch wall, “I thought I said I could go home by myself.”
Seeing her, the man stood up straighter and gave her a smile.
“When I received the text message, I was already downstairs.” He took the mop from Laura who didn’t realize it at all. And then she saw Marcus walking into Class 8, holding the mop, and readied to wash the floor.
Laura was surprised and ran over to grab it. “What are you doing?”
Is it crazy that Marcus, who has been in a position of privilege, would offer to clean up after her?
Marcus took a few steps back and avoided Laura’s hand. He looked even more puzzled than she did and laughed, “I’m cleaning with my fiancee, what’s wrong with that?”
