The man seemed to be really tired. Not long after he lay down, he fell asleep, but Wendy Grant was unable to sleep, but she did not want to wake him up, so she stiffened and looked at the light from the window.
In fact, she had not seen him so quietly for a long time. His facial features had faded away from his original childishness, and his contours had become more profound and clear. It wasn't the shy boy she remembered wearing a uniform on the court.
Recalling those youthful years, Wendy Grant subconsciously held his arm tighter.
In the eyes of others, she and Duke had only known each other since they were young but in fact, it was not just that she and Duke had known each other so easily. They had a very sweet time. When that was taken for granted.
Thirteen—year—old Wendy once went to school to find big brother, but he got lost. Big Brother was playing a basketball game with his friends at a university. That competition seemed very serious. It was a competition between the two universities. The atmosphere was tense. There were a lot of students from both schools.
Wendy was carrying a small school bag and wearing a pleated school uniform. He was very excited to cheer on his brother.
When she ran to the university, she realized that the campus of the university was too spacious. There were many teaching buildings and the corridors were connected. Her mind was a little dizzy, and she asked a few people. She hadn't found her brother's venue yet, so she was anxious to cry.
At that time, it was going to be dark, and there were a lot of people in the school. Wendy Grant called her brother, but her brother did not listen to her. In the end, she could only call Duke.
At that time, Duke had injured his arm and was there to cheer her up, so he could receive Wendy's call.
When he heard Wendy Grant crying on the phone, he ran out to find her.
Because both of them were not very familiar with this university, Wendy reported the position and it was difficult for Duke to find her. The two of them were going around the school, their heads dizzy.
Just as Wendy Grant was preparing to ask the driver to pick her up, someone behind her called her name.
Under the warm yellow street light, she saw a welcoming figure. It was Duke who came to pick her up.
"Wendy Grant, you're really stupid, the basketball court is over there. You actually ran to the other end. Your brother said you were stupid, you're really stupid." She walked over, her face sweating.
At that time, Wendy Grant was anxious and scared. She was fragile. When she heard that he did not comfort her, he just scolded her stupidly.
Duke looked at her in shock. It was hard to believe that she would cry so loudly.
"Don't cry, stop, stop right now." Duke immediately circled around her with a pleading and an order.
However, Wendy Grant was a child. She was so frightened that she was so tired.
Someone ran around to watch the excitement, but Duke, who was still a big boy, blushed anxiously, so he had to threaten her: "If you want to cry again, I won't bring you to find your brother."
When Wendy Grant heard, she immediately stopped crying and blinked her watery eyes and glared at him: "if you don't take me to my brother, I'll let my brother break up with you."
"Threat me? How old are you, then you dare to threaten me?" Duke was also childish. He immediately walked over and reached out to touch her head. She did not even reach his shoulders. She was petite and easy to bully.
"Don't touch my head." Wendy Grant was very angry and suddenly grabbed his arm and bit his bite on the back of his hand.
Duke screamed on the spot. He lowered his head to look at the rows of fine teeth marks.
"Unreasonable." Duke was also angry, and turned to leave.
Wendy Grant stood still, helpless and stubborn. He left, and she did not follow his steps.
Duke originally thought that she would follow, but when he turned around and found out that she was still there, he was angry, so he had to go back and asked her with a displeased face: "Do you want to find your brother? Are you here? Just follow me. "
"My leg hurts." Wendy Grant did not lie, her heels were worn by the small leather shoes, and she did not want to leave anymore.
"If you want me to just say it, don't look for a reason." Duke looked at her heels.
