Chapter 92 - Her Priority

Meanwhile, Davi was still burying her face in her hands while the car kept speeding towards Blue City. She was still blus.h.i.+ng. Her face, neck and ears were feeling impossibly hot that she fanned herself with her fingers.

Sei, you're slowly becoming a natural flirt. You even copied me!

Davi's emotions were fighting each other. She was undeniably happy that he finally made a move on her but at the same time, felt a bit disheartened because she knew that he only did it because she somewhat asked for it.

However, after a moment of thought, she realized she didn't need to feel disheartened about it after all. She thought that she must think of it as an accomplishment. After all, it's not everyday that you see an ice statue make a move. Thus, she clenched her hands into determined fists.

Mm. Dear self, this is not the time to think negatively. Keep going, because this might be a huge step forward. This could even be what you've been waiting for.

…

At a café…

Davi entered hastily and instantly spotted her old teacher sitting in the corner.

"I'm sorry, ma'am."

"No, no. I also have just arrived. Take a seat."

After they ordered some drinks, the two immediately began their serious talk.

"Davi, there may be a slight problem with you going to A University," the teacher said.

As soon as she heard these words, Davi instantly felt anxious. A University was Asia's version of Harvard and it was her first choice. This was the top ranked university in Asia and she really wanted to study there, which was why hearing that there may be a problem made her feel quite nervous.

"I know A University is your first choice and there's no doubt you are capable of taking one of the top spots and getting a full scholars.h.i.+p. But… the bad news is that, since last year, the university started requiring its scholars to live within the school grounds. I know your brother is still young and you won't want to leave him but this university is the best in Asia, so I want you to think about this decision carefully. I want you to think about your priorities."

Hearing the teacher's statement made Davi bite her lip. She was right, if she were to live within the school grounds, she wouldn't be able to visit her brother whenever she wanted anymore; something that she definitely didn't want to happen. However, what made her even more speechless was when she was told to think about her priority, Sei instantly seemed to appear in her head, out of nowhere!

My priority, huh… I guess I don't even need to think about it anymore, right?

So, in that moment, Davi could only smile. She realized that her life was indeed not the same anymore. If someone had asked her what her priority in life was two months ago, she would have answered, "my brother". If Sei hadn't come into her life and someone asked what her priorities were at this moment, she would definitely answer, "My brother and my dream". However, Davi's life already changed ever since she met Sei and she was well aware of it. She decided that whatever happened, she would keep her promise to him.

And to keep that promise, she had to give up going to A University.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Lee but I will have to give up going to A University, if that's the case. I will target XiZe University instead."
