In the university.
When Melody went into the classroom and sat down on a chair, no one around her noticed her. They lowered their heads and glued their eyes on their mobile phones, fiddling it as if they were obsessed by the little illuminating tool.
The teacher was giving a lecture in class. Melody lowered her voice and asked, "Sharon?"
Sharon came to her senses and looked relieved to see it was Melody who was calling her. "You scared me. I thought the teacher was asking me a question."
Melody frowned. "What are you doing?"
"Submitting my resume."
"Are you looking for a job?"
"Yes. The summer break is coming soon, so I thought I'd submit my resumes and job applications and see if I could get a job."
"Have you found any?"
Sharon pocketed her mobile phone and cupped her chin with one hand, donning a yearning look. Tve just submitted. Now, I'm waiting for them to call."
Some kind of brilliance radiated on her dreamy face that was particularly attractive. Melody smiled and said, "Good luck."
Sharon nodded with a smile, acknowledging her good friend's kind gesture.
Melody glanced around and squinted oddly when she saw Sharon's neck. "Sharon, what's wrong with you here?"
As she spoke, she reached out and wanted to pull Sharon's collar.
Sharon stealthily held her collar and changed the subject. "Don't you think there were a lot of mosquitoes last night? I was bitten all over my body. It is so itching today!"
Melody frowned. "Were there mosquitoes last night?"
"Yes, a lot. Don't you know? Well, I'm so poor I can't even afford the mosquito repellent, so I can only sacrifice my body to feed the mosquitos. It's so heartrending."
Melody was stunned.
