"Dad, can you check if Theresa is hurt?" Brandon whispered softly.
Theresa gave a gentle nod.
After giving her a quick once-over and not finding any serious issues, Brandon finally breathed a sigh of relief. He scooped her up and headed towards the open-air parking lot in the opposite direction of West District High School.
------------------------
Sophia stood at the entrance of West District High School, staring blankly at everything unfolding before her.
The students were on break, and the school gates were wide open to allow easy access for staff and their families.
Sophia's gaze slowly shifted from the school name to the open gates. She hesitated for a moment before walking through.
The security guard didn't stop anyone.
She and Amanda strolled in without a hitch.
On either side of the main entrance were the school's bulletin boards and the honor roll.
The honor roll displayed the college entrance exam scores and college acceptances of past students.
On one slightly faded honor roll, Sophia saw the name "Sophia," and just above it, the name "Brandon."
Their names stood side by side, belonging to the two top-performing students of their year.
Sophia stared blankly at the two names side by side on the honor roll, unable to move.
Her expression was one of vacant confusion that Amanda couldn't decipher, as if she was lost in some memory or trapped in a void.
This was a look that often appeared on Sophia's face since she regained consciousness.
Although Amanda had taken Sophia as her goddaughter, in truth, she couldn't quite figure Sophia out.
As usual, Amanda didn't say anything to disturb her and instead started looking around out of boredom.
Next to the honor roll was the bulletin board, plastered with the latest announcements and notices.
Amidst a bunch of vacation notices and guidelines, Amanda spotted an announcement about the school's plan to build a science museum and a call for design submissions.
Knowing that Sophia was an architect, Amanda couldn't help but let out a "Whoa" upon seeing the announcement.
