Rose came to her senses as she stared at Jay who seemed angry. She turned to speak to the staff, "My Zetty might be younger than her brother, but they have always been in the same class. I hope that they can be together in the higher-level class in Horizon Kindergarten.
The staff member felt a little awkward. "But Zetty isn't old enough for the higher-level class."
Rose was insistent. "Rules are man-made. We ought to consider her capabilities before assigning her to a class. Don't you think so?"
The staff members could not convince Rose, and so they turned their pleading gaze toward Principal Aspen. The principal turned to look at Jay instead.
Jay gave Rose a death glare!
Baby Zetty saw that the adults were in an awkward situation because of her. She walked in front of Principal Aspen and fluently enunciated her reasons for why she should be placed in the higher-level class.
"Grandpa Principal, I might be still young, but I've heard that many renowned universities accept younger students as long as they are intelligent. If those universities could do that, why can't a kindergarten make an exception for smart kids?"
Principal Aspen was amazed. "What amazing
reasoning abilities! Alright, I'll make an exception for a smart little girl like you. Grandpa Principal will let you join the higher-level class."
Rose breathed a sigh of relief.
Baby Zetty gave Grandpa Principal a big hug. Then, she thanked her with a deep bow. "Thank you, Grandpa Principal. Baby Zetty will not let you down."
Jay looked at the intelligent and obedient Baby Zetty and could not comprehend it. Was the little girl a natural actress? She was fierce and unyielding in front of him but was a courteous and gentle little lady i n front of others.
That two-faced temperament of hers reminded him of someone.
