Lauren thought she would be rejected, but the little girl actually agreed.

Lauren took the piece of paper and said “thank you” with a smile.

“I’m Lauren. What’s your name?”

The little girl didn’t say anything at first. She seemed to be hesitating whether to tell Lauren her name, but her lips moved for a few seconds before she opened her mouth.

“My name is Ruby Cromwell.”

Ruby’s tone when she spoke was similar to her gaze. It did not sound like the tone that a five-year-old child should have.

Children usually spoke with their last syllables raised, but every word of Ruby’s seemed to drop. This inexplicably reminded Lauren of those big villains in family dramas.

Lauren looked at the pink square origami paper in her hand and shook her head.

What was she thinking? This was a kindergarten.

She took the square origami paper and began to frown.

This was her last chance. What if she still couldn’t fold it properly?

So, she turned to Ruby for help.

“Ruby, can you teach me how to fold it?”

Unexpectedly, Ruby shook her head decisively this time. Then, she lowered her head and reverted back to her usual aloof look.

Lauren felt she was being treated unfairly. She did not do anything. Why was Ruby’s attitude so indifferent?

However, she recalled what Franklin had told her this morning.

Everyone had their own personality, and so did children. Therefore, she did not have to force herself to become friends with everyone.

Lauren consoled herself that it was not her fault, so she went to the classmate on her left for help.

The child on her left was also a little girl. She had a ponytail and it was braided with colorful butterfly clips, making her looked very cute.

According to the little girl, her name was Joie Donahue. She was six years old this year, one and a half years older than Lauren.
