Debbie didn’t feel comfortable with someone in her feet.
On the third day, since the second batch of the donated supplies hadn’t arrived, the fifteen university students took turns to give classes to the kids there. They shared a lot of things with the kids that they had never heard due to the poor education conditions there. They also sang a lot of popular songs for the kids.
The shabby classroom had becnoisy. A lot of villagers had also cto the school and were even standing outside since there wasn’t enough space inside. With keen pleasure, they listened to Debbie and Jared singing songs and then listened to Dixon and Gregory telling stories
Everything the students talked about was new and interesting to the villagers.
On the morning of the fourth day, the second batch of supplies arrived.

Debbie didn’t have any mission this afternoon, so she silently went to the yard behind the school on her own. She wanted a breath of fresh air for as long as she could have one. Earlier, she had told the village head’s son to help her send out a few postcards. ‘Have Kasie and the others received my postcards yet?’ she wondered.
She had just sat down on a big rock and taken out her phone which had no signal, when a person suddenly showed up in front of her, blocking the cool sunlight.
She raised her head and found that it was Gus.
He was staring at her without saying a word. Debbie looked around and found nobody else here. Confused, she asked, “What do you want?”
Gus kept his eyes on her without responding.
Debbie got goose bumps by his gaze.
“Dammit. Hey, you’re a man and I’m a woman. Don’t stare atthat way. I’m scared…”
Gus rolled his eyes at her. He snorted, “You’re as stupid as all the others!”
Debbie was rendered speechless. What did he want? ‘Is he here to stir up snew trouble for me?’ she thought.
With that in mind, Debbie put her phone back and stood up from the big rock. She was about to leave but Gus stopped her.
“What’s going on between you and Carlos?” Gus had happened to overhear someone’s words.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhoever it was, the person had said that Carlos demanded people here give special care to Debbie.
With Carlos‘ nbeing mentioned, Debbie turned around and spat out,
“Wimpy kid, just mind your own business and don’t poke your big nose where it doesn’t belong.”
‘What? Wimpy kid? Me?”
Gus’ face darkened. If Debbie weren’t a woman, he would surely have punched her black and blue now.
After Debbie had walked away, Gus immediately texted his brother.
“Curtis, Debbie calledwimpy kid! How dare she do that? I need to go back to Alorith now. Arrange for someone to pickup. I don’t want to take that goddamn bus again
The signal was really bad in the village, and Gus had to try several times before the message went through.
