Rebirth: Everything Is Still Possible
Chapter 3
Time went by quickly.
On the day of the registration, I recognized a familiar figure in the crowd at a glance. It was Javion.
Javion, who had been educated, looked down on me everywhere. He never showed up when my life was at stake.
In my last life, the most common words he said to me was such. "You don't even have a junior high school diploma. It's your blessing to marry me." His arrogant look was still vivid in my mind.
We were assigned to the same class, which surprised me.
But I found out that he didn't focus on study soon.
He slept and dozed off in class. after school, he went out with a group of friends to fool around. He would copy other's homework the next day, and if there was no time, he wouldn't hand in his homework.
At that time, studying was not as valued as it is now. Teachers didn't bother to care about the students. Students like Javion were ignored.
But I studied diligently every day. My grades were much higher than his.
"It turns out that you tend to over-complicate things when you are still an outsider. Only after being familiar with the field did I realize that it was just so-so."
"It will never be difficult to achieve things that can be changed through hard work and diligence."
"Obtaining an opportunity to study in my original village is much more difficult than studying itself."
"This is the reason why people like Javion tend to use education as an excuse to belittle others."
"But in such an environment, there are far-sighted families willing to invest in their children's education."
My desk mate, Larissa Berg, was one of them. Lunch wasn't provided ready at the school, so everyone brought their own lunch boxes. She was the only one that went back to a training institution to eat. After finishing the extra classes, she would come back for the classes in the afternoon.
When studying, she always looked peaceful. Her grades were also among the top. She was introverted and gentle as if she were from another age group.
I owed a lot of my good grades to her. She always patiently taught me how to solve the problems and enlightened me the key points that I didn't understand. Moreover, she shared her notes with me.
"The auxiliary line should be drawn here."
"Did you forget to bring the compass we will use in class yesterday? I brought two."
"My training teacher told me there was another solution to this problem."
"Jessa, let's take the entrance exam for No.1 High School together."
...
She was like a little angel.
I always felt like I had heard of her name in my previous life, but I couldn't recall where.
"Never mind, never mind."
"She may get into a sort of prestigious university and is being praised by the people in the town. People like Larissa will soar high and far in the future."
