The half way point of the year was reached, Ace was finally himself again But he still had Tamara  following him everywhere, she's been especially clingy ever since his sister died.

And weirdly, Tamara has been glaring at Janet when ever she sees her.

'Weird kid' Janet couldn't help think

"Well class, Mid terms are coming up, don't forget, next year you'll be getting ready for university. That'll be all for today." The teacher wrapped up the class for the day.

Janet, who was just about to leave, got stopped by Tamara.

"Mid terms, make a bet with me."

janet tilted her head

"You beat me in all the tests this past year, who knows how, but this time, I'll be the victor."

'Right, originally she's supposed to bother Monica, but somehow the trouble come to me.'

"No, this time I'LL be the victor." Monicas voice came from the side

Tamara looked at Monica up and down and just gave a 'hah' sound

"For a person constantly getting 3rd place, you have no right to speak to me about such matter."

"Hey!" Monica's face went red

"ohhhh, interesting, a fight for the top spot." Ace's voice made Janets eye twitch as he made her even more irritated.

"No, busy." Janet stands up. She and Daniel have a mission.

"Same here, sorry beasty" Ace stands up too, this alerts Janet,

'is he going on a mission too?'

Janet turns her attention to Daniel who looked at her too, he gave her a light nod, signally that there's a possibility that Ace will be there.

Since knowing that Ace Is the purple eyed boy, they've actually not encountered him again in the last few months during a mission.

"Argh, Charlie! Monica, are you two free?"

"No" Monica walked right pass them. "I would like to eat with you Miss Bella" Charlie smiled
