"The affection you'd have growing up together is definitely different." Upon hearing that, Freddy becupset. No matter how hard he tried, he would not be able to replace Bruno's place in Mashauva's heart, would he? In the back seat, Frida noticed Freddy's reaction. She pursed her lips and lowered her head.
Jelly Bean still had the ssilly expression on her face, and did not understand or realize anything. "Freddy, hurry up and start driving. They are leaving." Freddy cto his senses, looked at Jelly Bean, and said while he chuckled, "Fortunately, I have Jelly Bean and Frida with me." After the car drove out, Freddy said to Santino, who was in the passenger seat.
"Santino, this is Mashauva's classmate, Frida. This is the first tshe is going out with us. We might do it more often in the future. This is a good opportunity for you to get to know each other." "Frida, this is Bruno's uncle's son. His nis Santino. He has a twin brother called Santiago." "He has a twin brother?" Frida was a little surprised.
"Hello." Santino turned his head and greeted Frida. He had sharp features and clear eyes, which made him look very handsome.
Frida greeted him as well.

When they were young, one was a crybaby, and the other was very quiet." Frida was surprised by that. "Are they really that different?" "Freddy." Santino's ears turned red as Freddy had talked about them in front of Frida, who was a girl whom he had just met. "Stop talking about us." "Are you shy because there's a girl here? Don't be shy, I'm just talking about yours and your brother's personalities, that's all. Don't be so nervous. Aren't you just admitting you're the crybaby then?" Jelly Bean laughed out without reservation.
Frida also couldn't help laughing.
"Freddy, that was when I was a baby. It has nothing to do withnow. I've stopped crying ever since I grew up." As a boy, Santino felt that the most embarrassing thing to do was to be a crybaby. He did not like talking about it, but others would usually bring it up as a joke.
He felt rather helpless too.
"Okay, I'm just joking. Also, it's normal for a boy to cry anyway. It shouldn't matter whether it is shedding tears or shedding blood, as long as one is righteous." "Yes." Frida agreed and nodded. "Everyone cried when they were a child. My mother used to say that I was a crybaby when I was young and I would argue with her last time, but this changed when I grew up. It's normal for children to cry because they don't understand anything." Upon hearing that, Freddy couldn't help looking at Frida carefully through the rearview mirror. He realized that she spoke in a deliberate and serious manner.
"Frida, you are around Masha's age, aren't you?" "Yes, but I'm a few months older than her." "You are just a few months older than her, yet you seem to be far more sensible and mature than she is. Mashauva is like someone who hasn't grown up yet. She liked to eat very much in the past, and she is still the snow. She doesn't behave as though she is in high school. Alas." Speaking of that, Freddy shook his head.
"That's fine too. She doesn't need to worry much." "That's true. She is a carefree little girl. Let's hope that she could always be this easy-go-lucky." As he said that, Frida looked at Freddy again. She jut felt that she had found out about something, but she was unsure about it.
About two hours later, they arrived at the destination.
It was the Broken Mountain, and they needed tickets to get in. There were hot springs and villas on the top of the mountain. If one felt tired because it was too tiring to climb up, one could rest on the hillside where there was a small homestay that was specifically built for visitors.
When they all arrived, they took out food and water from the trunk. Mashauva frowned as she carried her small bag, as it was very heavy.
Suddenly, a sigh cfrom above her head and she felt the heavy weight being lifted off her shoulders. Mashauva looked up and saw that Bruno had already taken her bag for her. "How much food and drinks did you bring with you?" Mashauva's cheeks were flushed. "I didn't bring much. I'll share it with you later." Bruno helped Mashauva with her backpack. As Santino and Jelly Bean sat together, he helped Jelly Bean carry hers, while Freddy helped Frida to carry hers.
There was a boy who looked exactly the sas Santino next to him. He was tall and thin, and he was standing there, expressionless.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was Santiago, the quiet twin whom Freddy mentioned.
The twins inherited their personalities and temperament from their father and mother. Quill, who didn't like to talk, had always been indifferent, and Santiago got his personality from him. Santino's temperament was similar to Vera's. He felt shy easily, and whenever that happened, his face would turn red.
"As usual, we will first climb halfway up the mountain. Then, well rest for half an hour, and continue our journey." "Okay." The others were familiar, but it was Frida's first tthere, thus she was nervous. Luckily, she had Freddy around, who was taking quite good care of her.
"Frida, Masha is with Bruno. Why don't you walk with me? Don't leave the group or run around. Although there aren't any animals in the forest, it's still rather scary at night." Frida followed closely behind him.
"You have a good relationship with Mashauva, don't you?" "Yes, we have known each other for many years." "Did any boy give her love letters when she was in school?" Freddy chuckled softly after he asked that. "Probably not, right? She's so chubby, who will like her?" Hearing that, Frida frowned in disagreement and said, "Freddy, don't say that about her. She'll be upset if she hears this."
"Why even you are protecting her like this too? Why can't I just talk about her for once behind her back? Also, you haven't toldwhether she has received any love letters." Frida shook her head. "I'm not too sure about this." "Tsk, Frida, I'm helping you carry your backpack, but you are being too ungrateful. I am only asking you an easy question, yet you're unwilling to answer it." "Freddy, this is Mashauva's personal matters. If you want to know, you should ask her directly." "Hey, have you noticed?" Freddy pointed at the tall and short figures in front of him. "Bruno is fiercely guarding her. I might be glared at even if I were just to look at her. If I were to ask anything, he would definitely not letget off the hook. He's so scary, how would I dare to ask her myself ow would I Am I right, Frida?"
Frida followed his gaze and saw the om two of them walking together. Mashauva's chubby body moved from side to side as she walked.
Bruno would reach out his hand to hold her carefully and he would sigh afte that, "Walk properly, what if you fall down?"
"You are here, so I won't fall." Mashauva actually wanted to walk properly too, but since she was rather chubby, and she was a little exhausted, she could not balance herself well. X
