Chapter 6 Hidden Gift

She'd had a crush on William since her first year at SHS, and she always made a way for him to notice her, but the first and fourth years of high school passed and she still didn't have a sign if William had a crush on Daniella. Daniella's other subjects passed by, and she was getting ready to go home, but William suddenly approached her while she was getting her belongings. "After that, you follow me," he said, as he began to walk. Daniella was puzzled, but she later followed it. William was almost moved too far when he stopped in a chair near the basketball court inside the school. He turned to Daniella and began to explain to the two of them the set up. "I just have a few rules for teaching you, so we don't have a problem." Daniella made a slow nod. "First and foremost, you must always be on time; I do not want you to be late. Second, if it is not about tutoring, do not talk to me. Is that clear? " "Yeah, sure," Daniella replied. " Third, you should have understood at least half of what I taught you; in other words, you should concentrate on the lesson rather than on me." As she kicked the ground, Daniella sighed. " Did you understand what I said?" Daniella smiled at William when she raised her head. "I got it all," Daniella said. "Then I can go home." Although it felt like William still had something to say, he didn't say anything and left immediately. Daniella looked and followed him as he walked until it faded from her sight. "He hasn't changed. He's still mean, "she said with a smile that almost ripped her cheeks. "But this is probably the best year for me because I can be with him now, unlike before when I had to stalk to find out where he was in part of the school, and he didn't say anything that I should give up what I've been doing since the beginning, so I'll do what I want." Bree had been looking for her for a while there at times, so she was taken by surprise when she saw her with that look. "Dan, I've been looking for you for a little while, and why do you look like that?" Daniella quickly faced Bree, who was shocked because she looked like she was not Daniella. "Can you tell me what happened to you?" "Nothing. Let's go home, "Daniela said, as she continued to smile. "Dan, went crazy for the first week of school! This is unbelievable! "she said before she walked and followed Daniella home. Bree got home first because her house was closer to the school, while Daniella had to walk another block to get home. It is not conventional for her to ride a tricycle home as long as she can walk if she is in a hurry, and it is also a waste of money if she rides the tricycle all of the time. Even though Daniella was still in her first year of high school, she always felt as if someone was following her since she started walking, but every time she looked behind her, there were no people or even animals. She was scared at first, but now she is used to every school year, and it's possible that Daniella was just imagining things, so she did not pay enough attention in the end. She was standing in front of their house when she spotted her mother, who was already inside the cottage, having a coffee. Daniella shouted," Mom, I'm back!" Daniella's mother, Maria, frowned. "Why are you shouting as if you're coming from another country?" "Did you miss me?" "No! Get inside and change your clothes so you don't have to be silly here, "she said before sipping coffee. Daniella slowly started to walk inside their house." Everytime I said something like a joke, she have answer to it." She shook her head as she searched for her clothes. Daniella couldn't let her mother be sad since her father left them because God took it too soon, even if it was just a simple tease. She could not think that they were just the two of them, even though her mother was upset with her sometimes. But, even if it doesn't seem like it, she can now say that she is simply riding on her crazy doings. Daniella sat down in front of her mini table when she had finished putting her things in the cabinet and took the small box from the drawer." For almost a year, I've started to save for this necklace, and now I've already bought it, but nothing seems to be happening in my effort to get him to notice me until now." Daniella said, picking up the necklace until it was level with her face, with a pendant of the letter D inside the ring. "You are my last gift to him because I'm about to graduate next year and I don't know where he will go to college, so if I can't follow him anymore, I will give this to him and I hope he keeps it. I'm okay with that." She stared at the necklace for a while before putting it back in the drawer."Last chance Daniella, if none of that works out, move on after graduation," she murmured to herself, smiling as she walked out of the room. On the other hand, William, has only just got home from school and he has also walked home. An older woman approached him and took his stuff. "Oh, you've arrived; why do you love walking when you have a car to use?" William simply smiled and stepped into the living room, where he sat on the sofa. Lydia, William's maid, said, "What kind of answer is that, a smile?" As a result, she approached William once more to ask. "Are you hungry? I cooked a snack. Would you like to taste it? " " Lydia, it's just a cup of coffee; I'm fine with that." " Are you sure?" Lydia replied. William just nodded and she left to make coffee. While waiting for the coffee, William lay on his back on the backrest of the sofa , looking deep in thought as he gazed at the ceiling of their house, and then smiled suddenly. Lydia saw that while holding a cup of coffee. Lydia asked as she lowered the cup. "Are you okay, William? Why are you smiling all by yourself? Did something nice happen? " Before answering, William sat up straight. "No, Lydia, something funny just came to my mind, so I smiled." "All right, I'll leave you here because I have something to do in the kitchen, and your Dad and Mom are coming home before dinner came." Lydia went to the kitchen, and William sipped his coffee slowly. William's parents own and run a business, which his mom and dad manage. As a result, William can be regarded as capable in life.Yes, their lives are good, but they are not the people who have lost contact with others, especially when they are not relatives. William is a serious person with a good heart; he just can't show it to others because other people and students at their school think he's unkind because of his expression or because he's simply quiet; if no one asks, he doesn't speak. After finishing drinking the coffee, he entered his room and changed his clothes.
