From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent (Anthea ) novel Chapter 391

Exhausted.

But Tanya held on.

Because she knew her parents had been through worse over the years.

Experiencing a fraction of their hardships before it was too late seemed right.

...

Meanwhile.

Anthea decided today was the day to take her driving test.

Since she had promised Tanya, she sent her a video call.

The call connected quickly.

On the screen, Tanya appeared in a diner uniform, "Annie, what's up?"

Anthea said, "Didn't we agree to take our driving tests together? Which driving school did your mom sign you up for? I'll meet you there."

Tanya smiled, "Annie, I've taken up a summer job, so I don't think I'll have time to take driving lessons with you. Sorry for bailing on you again."

"A summer job?" Anthea raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah."

Just then, someone off-screen called for Tanya.

Tanya quickly responded and then said, "The diner's getting busy! Annie, gotta go. Let's catch up later."

With that, she hung up.

Without Tanya, Anthea had to go alone.

She found a local driving school online that seemed decent enough and was nearby.

The instructor was a middle-aged man in his fifties, named Mr. Wu.

He seemed stern when he wasn't smiling.

With school just out, many students were signing up for driving lessons. Some seemed bright enough, but learning to drive was a different story. Repeating a maneuver hundreds of times and still not getting it right!

Mr. Wu was getting a headache just thinking about recent graduates.

Seeing a staff member leading Anthea over, Mr. Wu inwardly groaned, "You're a recent high school graduate too?"

Anthea nodded.

Mr. Wu scratched his head, opened the passenger door, and said, "Hop in."

"Sure." Anthea sat in the back seat.

Another student was in the driver's seat.
