After school, Milo’s parents also stayed behind to thank Ruby for her help.
Ben had completely forgotten that today was Friday and school ended an hour earlier. He only recalled when Lauren requested Carina to call Ben.
So Lauren had to wait in the classroom for a while.
Lauren was not the only one left in the classroom.
Milo’s mother was repeatedly thanking Ruby’s mother, Susan, while holding on to her hand.
“Thank you so much for your daughter’s help. If it weren’t for her, I don’t know what would have happened to this brat of mine.”
Susan said, “It’s nothing. As long as the child is fine, it’s alright.”
However, Lauren felt that Susan’s expression was a little unnatural.
Milo and his mother had already left. The form teacher, Miss Carina Bailey, was still talking to Susan in the classroom.
“You really taught your child well. She’s good at math and she even knows the Heimlich maneuver. She saved Milo’s life today.”
“Maneuver? What maneuver?”
Carina smiled. “It’s the first aid method that Ruby used today. If it weren’t for you parents teaching the method to Ruby, Milo today…sigh, let’s not talk about it anymore.”
“Oh…” Susan nodded. It was as if this was the first time she had heard the name of this first aid method.
“Lauren.”
Hearing someone calling her, Lauren looked outside. Ben was already waiting at the classroom door.
“Miss Bailey, my uncle is here. I’ll be leaving first.”
“Okay, go ahead. Have a good weekend.”
“You too, Miss Bailey!”
When she reached the door, Lauren turned around.
“Ruby, have a good weekend. I’ll see you next Monday.”
As if she did not expect Lauren to talk to her, Ruby looked up with surprise in her eyes. She quickly came back to her senses and nodded at Lauren.
“I’ll see you next Monday.”
After receiving Ruby’s response, Lauren skipped toward Ben in satisfaction.
She did not listen to the class the entire day. All she could think about was her schedule for the next day.
She was going to visit her parents the next day!
After Lauren got into the car, she hugged her school bag and looked out the window.
Looking at the blue sky and white clouds, Lauren was in an extremely good mood.
“Miss Torres, what kind of treasure is in your school bag? Why are you hugging it so tightly?”
“It’s not a treasure. It’s just that everyone will get an origami crane that I have folded today.”
