I Am Sorry
“Vivi, what about me? What am I supposed to get?” Elaine asked.
“Well…” Vivian didn’t know what to say.
“Didn’t you bring any money?” Kurt cast an icy gaze at Elaine.
Elaine shuddered and explained, “M-My parents didn’t give me any. My family is…”
“So you leech off of Vivian instead?” Kurt interrupted. Although he was only a young boy, every single
word of his was mean and vicious.
Elaine was enraged upon hearing what Kurt said.
She bit her lips and started crying uncontrollably. Then, she turned and ran away from Vivian and Kurt.
“Elaine! Elaine!” Vivian shouted when she saw Elaine taking off in tears.
However, Elaine was out of sight just a few seconds later. All Vivian could hear was Elaine’s agonizing
cry coming from afar.
As Vivian was very appreciative of her friendship with Elaine, she stomped her feet in anger and turned
to Kurt. “Why would you say that to her, Kurt? She came from a less well-off family. They even have to
struggle for school fees, so what’s wrong with me helping her?”
“Why would you want to help her? She knows that you’re a kind person. So she’s just taking advantage
of your kindness!” Kurt responded.
“Stop it!” Vivian thundered. She stared at Kurt angrily before snatching the bags of purchased goods
from his hand. Then she turned and left.
Kurt was stunned as he watched Vivian leave him behind.
A few days later, Vivian went to Class Eighteen at school to apologize to Elaine.
But Elaine ignored her. Instead, she had already gotten close with Helena. Vivian even saw that Elaine
was serving Helena around.
So, you refused me even when I was willing to spend that last five hundred of mine on you to get your
Cinderella outfit. Now that you’re with the girl from a royal family, you’re willing to be her servant? Vivian
couldn’t help but feel disappointed in Elaine.
With tears in her eyes, Vivian went back to her classroom. There, she bumped into Kurt wearing a blue-
colored hoodie. He was there waiting for her.
Vivian was shocked to see him there. To avoid letting him see the state she was in, she wanted to walk
past him and go straight into the classroom.
Kurt panicked and hurried over to Vivian.
“Vivi, I’m sorry. I was wrong. Stop being angry at me, okay?” Kurt grabbed her hand and apologized
because she had been ignoring him for days.
Vivian went quiet for a while. She rubbed her teary eyes slightly and gazed upon Kurt. “I’m not angry at
you. It’s just that I think that perhaps you were right about Elaine.”
“Huh?” Kurt was puzzled, and he looked at Vivian. He was surprised at the fact that she wasn’t angry at
him anymore. Instead, Vivian was crying again. “D-Don’t cry anymore, okay? My actions were wrong. I
will not speak ill of her anymore. I-I’ll go and apologize to her, all right?”
Kurt was panicking as he saw how sad Vivian was. He had always been an insensitive child, but the
moment he saw Vivian teared up, he turned sympathetic and was willing to apologize to Elaine.
However, he was stopped by Vivian. “It’s okay, Kurt, you don’t have to do that. I’m not angry anymore. I’ll
stop crying now. How about we go grab a bite together?” Vivian then stopped crying and invited Kurt
along for a bite.
Kurt’s heart ached for Vivian when he saw how strong of a little girl she was. Despite being incredibly sad
herself, she toughened herself up instead for him.
The two of them then went to the convenience store at the school and bought lots of junk food. They
brought the food to a garden nearby and started eating.
Well, Vivian did most of the eating because Kurt had never been much of a fan of junk food. He only ate
some candies, which Vivian gave to him.
Vivian’s mood improved after all the junk food. She then went back to her classroom. Kurt left the garden
as well, but he was heading straight to Class Eighteen.
“Elaine, someone’s looking for you outside,” one of the students said.
Elaine was enjoying herself as she tried on the costumes given to her by the others. But upon hearing
that someone was looking for her, she assumed that it was Vivian. Hence, she answered coldly, “I’m not
going!”
However, the student went on, “But the person is insisting!”
Upon hearing that, Elaine trembled as she thought about the possibility of Kurt wanting to confront her.
Out of fear, she had no choice but to approach the person outside her class.
My nightmare came true! Indeed, it was Kurt, with both his hands tucked inside the pockets of his blue
hoodie.
“Kurt, w-why are you here?” the trembling Elaine asked.
“What do you think?” Kurt stared back at her with his frosty eyes.
Why must he always look so scary? Unlike a typical ten-year-old, he possesses an overly petrifying
gaze! Elaine was extremely intimidated.
