Jelly Bean sat next to Santino.
Freddy took off his coat, walked over to Frida and handed it to her. "You can use mine then."
"No, it's all right." Frida shook her head. "The ground is not that dirty. It's fine."
She was just a girl from a poor family after all. She had to bear dirtier conditions when she had to work back when she was younger so she did not mind sitting on the bare ground.
"Girls are supposed to be spoiled. Why are you so hesitant?" Freddy placed his jacket on the ground, pushed Frida and made her sit on it. "Furthermore, your clothes are light colored. Aren't you afraid that your clothes might get stained later on if you don't sit on my jacket?"
Frida kept quiet.
She then decided to just sit on it.
"Thank you."
The sky was still gray initially, but it began to turn white after a moment, and soon the sun rose slowly.
The view on the mountaintop where they sat had the best view. They get the panoramic view of the slowly rising sun. The clouds around the sun were dyed red by it. It was exceptionally dazzling.
Frida was once again taken aback by the scenery.
She had never had the opportunity to watch sunrise in the past. Although she knew that the sun would rise and set, the sunrise merely represented the start of a new day to her, indicating that it was time for her mother to head out for hard work again.
She did not expect it to be so beautiful.
"Are you okay? Are you in awe because of how beautiful it is?" Freddy waved his hand in front of Frida and asked softly. "I was like you as well the first time I came here. I was in awe, too. People who know how to enjoy life really do live differently from ordinary people."
Enjoy life?
Frida did not respond. She stared at the sunrise attentively to make sure that she would not miss a moment of it.
It could be difficult for her to see such a breathtaking sight again in the future.
Mashauva leaned against Bruno. She was still slightly sleepy, but she perked up when she saw the sunrise.
"Beanie, the sunrise is really beautiful." She cupped her cheeks in her palms, feeling really joyful.
"Yes," Bruno lowered his head and looked at her. She was completely mesmerized by the scene, and her big eyes were dazzlingly pure.
"Beanie, will you still accompany me to watch the sunrise when I grow up?"
"Yes, I will."
"Are we coming back here to watch the sunrise? I wonder if there are other places with such spectacular sunrise! Perhaps we can go to other provinces to look at sunrise too if we have the chance?"
"Other provinces?"
"Yes!" Mashauva nodded firmly. "Although it's the same sun, different places in different provinces should have different views as we will be looking at it from different angles!"
Bruno did not expect a girl as pure as her would have so many thoughts in her head. He thought that it could be a rather exciting and fun thing to do as well.
"You're right. The sunrise will look different at different places. It will also differ based on our mood then." "Then, will you bring me along next time?" "Sure, we'll visit all of them," Bruno sighed deeply as he said. He then touched Mashauva on the head gently. He just couldn't stop doting on her.
"Thank you, Beanie!"
In her mind, unknowingly, she had already taken it as a promise from him.
After returning to school, Frida became more hardworking and she was much quieter than before. In the past, Frida would always accompany her when Mashauva drag her along to get some food that she wanted. However, ever since the trip where they got to watch the sunrise, they started spending less time with each other and Frida spent most of her time in the library instead. If she was not already in the library, she would be on the way there.
Mashauva felt extremely bored without Frida, and that in turn gave Lena and Hailey an opportunity to get close to Mashauva.
Due to the fight during their military training, Mashauva refused to hang out with them initially. Lena had apologized for it many times, and even sent her a lot of snacks. It took a long time before Mashauva decided to forgive her.
