Chapter 1555
Frida wasn't sure how to respond as she felt embarrassed when she heard what they said.
Mashauva was the one who took her hand and said, "Nah, if Frida isn't feeling well, then I'll go back with her so she can rest. You guys have one another, so you can keep shopping."
Lena and Hailey originally wanted Mashauva to be together with them so they could learn more about Bruno. Who knew that Frida would actually disrupt their plans. As a result, the way they looked at Frida turned hostile.
"We'll be going now. You two enjoy yourselves, okay? See you..."
After Mashauva hailed a cab with Frida, Frida looked at Mashauva only to find a nonchalant expression on her face. Hence, she couldn't help but ask softly.
"Mashauva, you..."
"What's wrong?" Mashauva turned her head and looked at Frida in confusion.
The words were already on the tip of her tongue, but Frida stopped upon seeing Mashauva's innocent expression. She could only sigh in her heart. "It's nothing."
"Frida, you're acting a little strange today."
Frida mused that Mashauva was indeed way too naive, and it wasn't her who was strange.
Mashauva was initially rather energetic when they returned to their dorm, but she became sleepy as soon as she landed on her bed and promptly fell asleep.
Frida, who had feigned being unwell, could only shake her head at the soundly asleep Mashauva.
For Mashauva, there was indeed nothing else that mattered in the world except for eating and sleeping. Oh, and Bruno as well.
Later that afternoon, Lena and Hailey returned to see that Frida had placed her clothes in the bathroom. On the other hand, Mashauva was asleep. The two girls exchanged a look and walked into the bathroom.
Frida saw them suddenly came in and wanted to leave.
However, the other two girls unexpectedly closed the door, and the three of them were squeezed together in one small room. Hence, Frida could only stand up against the wall.
"You're Frida, right?"
Lena sneered at her and tried to reach out to grab
Frida's chin, but she turned away and avoided her. "What are you doing?"
"What are we doing? Do you even need to ask? We only invited Mashauva out, but you had to come with us. Fine, but all you had to do was stay. Why did you fake being unwell?" Hailey wasn't as polite as Lena, and she reached out to tug at Frida's hair, and quite forcefully as well, which made Frida bit her lower lip, wincing in pain. She said, "Let go of me!"
"Do you want me to let you go? Then, you have to promise not to disturb our plans in the future."
"You guys have ulterior motives! Don't even dream of being friends with Mashauva!" Frida wanted to grab their hairs, but they were both tall, and they outnumbered her. Hence, they managed to pin Frida to the floor right away, and she couldn't even get back up.
"What do you mean by ulterior motives? Are yours pure then? Why did you blush when that guy stroke your head? Even if we have an agenda for getting close to Mashauva, what does it have to do with you? It's not like we're hurting her. It has nothing to do with you."
"Don't badmouth us in front of Mashauva, understand? If not, we'll get you kicked out of school."
Frida didn't respond, but she didn't refuse either. She was initially struggling desperately against Lena and Hailey. After a while, the fight left her and she went limp.
After a long while, Lena and Hailey exchanged glances before they loosened their grips on her and left the bathroom.
Bang!
Frida stayed on the floor for some time in the same position before she sat up and leaned against the wall. Her eyes were red with tears. D*mn it! They had gone way too far!
She wanted to hold back her tears, but they kept falling. Hence, she could only rub at her eyes incessantly. Her hair was a mess, and her clothes were wet.
Mashauva seemed to have heard someone quarreling and opened her eyes in a daze. Then, she saw Lena and Hailey. "You're back."
She rubbed her eyes as she asked with a sleepy voice.
"Yup. It's way too hot outside, so we came back. Did you just wake up? We brought you milk tea. What flavor would you like?" Milk tea?
Mashauva sat up as soon as she heard that.
"Really? You're too kind."
"Don't mention it. We're roommates anyway, so it's normal for us to do this."
Lena affectionately stroked
Mashauva's hair and said, "However, don't drink it right after you've woken up. We girls shouldn't have too much iced drinks, so drink it when it's
longer cold."
"Okay, thank you."
After that, Mashauva stood up. "I'll go to the bathroom then."
However, she was stopped by Lena and Hailey. "Wait."
"What's wrong?"
"Well, Hailey and I just bought a few dresses. Can you see if they look nice on us?"
Mashauva had slept for a while, so she needed to pee. However, she didn't feel like it was nice to refuse them, so she agreed, "All right then."
After that, the two girls tried on their dresses for Mashauva, and Mashauva praised all of them.
"Mashauva, you are so good at sweet talking. Did you bring a dress too?"
"Yeah, but not many."
"Put it on for us."
However, Mashauva declined and told them she wanted to go to the bathroom. Lena and Hailey realized that they couldn't stop her anymore, so they let her go.
Meanwhile, Mashauva discovered Frida in the bathroom as she went in, while Lena and Hailey followed her in there as well.
"Frida? You are in the bathroom!"
In the meantime, Frida had already sorted out her emotions. She looked up and said, "Yeah."
Mashauva felt strange as she saw Frida's reddened eyes. "What's wrong?"
Frida saw the vicious expressions on Lena and Hailey's faces behind Mashauva, and she hesitated for a while before she said, "Nothing, I just kind of miss my mom." NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
As Frida explained, Mashauva recalled that Frida's mother had gone abroad to work, and she wouldn't be back until the New Year.
"I'm sorry to have fallen asleep and left you alone when you were missing home. Let's go and visit her over winter break, all right?"
"Okay.
"You want to use the bathroom, right? Go ahead, I'll leave."
After Mashauva closed the bathroom door, Lena and Hailey both sneered. "At least you're still smart enough to lie."
Frida felt extremely dissatisfied as
she leaned against the wall. However, she lost all her courage at the thought of her low status and poor family, and how lowly she was when compared to others.
She couldn't do anything, so how could she stand up to them?
Mashauva's phone rang as she left the bathroom. As she was about to go and pick it up, Lena had already took her phone and done so for her.
"Hello, are you Mashauva's brother? I am her roommate, Lena.
"Ah, she's in the bathroom. I'll ask her to come to the phone for you."
As soon as Lena looked back, she saw Mashauva standing there. She smiled and said, "Mashauva, your brother's calling."
"Oh, thank you." Mashauva went over and took the phone. Somehow, she felt that what Lena did was a little strange.
