279. "Friends"
Peloris turned her head:
"Hora?"
Hola looked at Peloris with some surprise, this was the first time she had taken the initiative to talk to Hola in this time.
Peloris exudes a special aura that makes Hora feel very comfortable, and she can't help but want to squint her eyes and enjoy it, just like a fire in a cave surrounded by a blizzard, a wisp of clear water accidentally found after walking thousands of miles in the hot desert, which makes people want to get close to her.
In short, it is an instinctive impulse of the creatures.
Peloris asked:
"Your father, Hervin, on the day of the parent-teacher conference, he asked Teacher Lamont to revoke your class president. ”
Hola says:
"That's right, the current squad leader is still Ciro. ”
Although Hola was very happy that Peloris took the initiative to chat with her, she couldn't help but feel a little vigilant in her heart, why did Peloris talk to her about Hervin?
Peloris closed the book and placed it in a drawer:
"Your father is threatening Teacher Lamont, isn't he?"
Hora asked in surprise:
"What are you talking about?"
Looking at Haura's innocent expression, Peloris almost thought that she had really misunderstood.
Peloris said expressionlessly:
"Mr. Herwin used a viper and a rat for example, and he couldn't have said that you were a rat and Ciro was a viper, and he clearly meant that Lamont was the rat and that he himself was a viper who could easily kill a mouse.
He's telling Lamont that if he continues to question you, he'll come to Lamont like a snake that eats a rat. ”
Hola still looked at Peloris with her big watery eyes open, a puzzled expression.
Peloris continued:
"It's not just that he's threatening Lamont, and you know he's doing it, and you can say nothing, but you and I know it.
"But don't worry, I don't think I would tell anyone else, and since Mr. Hewen has expressed his emotions so clearly, I don't think he cares what people think of him. ”
Seeing that Hola still didn't respond, Peloris continued:
"I don't really like you, I don't like you, I don't show it, but I don't like you, and unlike the others, I just don't like them that much, but I don't like you very much. ”
Hola said curiously:
"Why?"
Peloris gave her answer:
"Because I like you. ”
There are already several question marks popping up on Hara's little head, what is the reason for liking and not liking? Isn't this a contradiction?
Peloris says:
"It's not just that I like you, the whole grade likes you, and anyone who sees you doesn't seem to hate you, and I guess even if you do something excessive, they still don't blame you too much, and of course, you don't do anything bad.
"But it's weird, right, it seems to me that no one is going to be averse to you, and no child is going to bully you.
"This kind of thing is not normal, even if you are good-looking, there will always be people who dislike you, out of jealousy, envy, low self-esteem, negative views are no one can escape.
"It's like you have some kind of magical power. ”
Hola replied:
"Not everybody likes me, not everybody doesn't hate me, they just don't express their hatred for me. ”
In fact, the fact that most of the school liked Hola was not based on some mysterious force, but on a more brutal truth.
Because Hola is good-looking.
And it's very good-looking.
Humans are such creatures, and their genes determine that they will like people who are aesthetically pleasing, and this nature can be overcome, but it is not a simple thing.
Ninety percent of people like Hara simply because she's good-looking.
But there are still ten percent of people who don't like her, and there are inevitably a few who hate her, but it's not a big deal for Holland, she doesn't need everyone to like it, and she doesn't deliberately perceive the preferences of others, and then finely adjust her appearance, expressions, and movements.
But for the very few people who want to turn their disgust into violence, slander, bullying, or even worse.
This part of their mind will disappear before it can be put into action.
The Malkini have developed more and more abilities as they grow, and this almost instinctive ability to protect themselves also emerged after Hara entered puberty.
But in the face of Peloris, Hola did have a slight initiative out of selfishness to use her abilities, and adjusted some details such as micro-expressions.
Peloris said seriously:
"But I like you very much, your movements, your expressions, your intonation, your laughter, all make me want to like it from the bottom of my heart.
"But that's not right. ”
Peloris and Hola looked at each other.
Hola lowered her head:
"I'm sorry. ”
Peloris said with a stern expression:
"You can't get a person's liking this way, can you promise that you will never do anything like this to me again?"
In Hara's eyes, Peloris at this moment is like a gentle but serious sister, reprimanding her sister who has done something wrong but has not yet made a big mistake.
Hola whispered:
"I promise. ”
Peloris suddenly stretched out a hand:
"Hora-san, I have a question for you. ”
Hola reflexively took the girl's hand, and when she did, it felt a little sudden.
The girl with short green hair smiled and said:
"Would you like to be my friend?"
"Of course!"
The whole world fell silent, except for the crisp laughter of the two girls.
