Alison grew up in a complicated family, so she had learned long ago never to interfere in other people's business.
Luis saw Alison's blushed cheeks and he made a nonchalant snort. He glanced at the textbook spread out in Alison's hand and didn't say another word.

Selina exclaimed, "It's so rare." Alison was not a gossiper. Although she sensed that there were implicit meanings in Selina's words, she didn't ask but just had a smile.
Selina inclined closer to Alison and then she asked mysteriously, "Do you think Luis is handsome?" Alison looked at Luis, who was playing basketball on the court. Wearing the basket jersey, he looked so vibrant.
He had a well-defined face and distinguished features. He was the right kind of boy for girls” dreams.
"Yes, he’s handsome.” Alison looked away and bit on her straw, her face a little flushed.

The teacher intended to let the girl monitor him not to sleep in class! Guess what happened? "What happened?" Alison's bright eyes widened at Selina, her voice soft and with a hint of curiosity, which perfectly met Selina's desire to tell a story.
Selina grunted, "It was unbelievable! Luis moved his desk straight outside the classroom. The girl asked him how he would move back, and Luis told him he didn't want anything from her and that he just wanted her to stay away from him."
