Bella Woods patted Calvin Marshall on the shoulder: "Don't talk about yourself like that, you're great. I envy you too, you've always been brave enough to express yourself, to express whether you like or dislike someone.
And you can openly speak of missing them."
"This carefree spirit of yours is something I've always admired and tried to learn from."
Bella Woods spoke sincerely, and she felt that when Calvin Marshall expressed admiration for her, there was no superficiality or courtesy, it was genuine envy.
Two girls of similar age, expressing admiration for each other's strengths with no false pretenses, is quite a precious sentiment.
Suddenly, after making eye contact, Bella Woods and Calvin Marshall both started laughing.
