Elliana noticed that Coleman had remained quiet for a long time.She thought he had thought it through. So, she encouraged him further. “I know Bonnie’s incredible, but you’re no slacker yourself. Be more confident in yourself, Coleman. You should give it a shot. Who knows? You might get a pleasant surprise.”Initially, Coleman had mustered up some courage.

Her light is so incandescent that I just don’t have the guts to do something like that.”Like I said, what am I going to do if we can’t even remain friends after I give her a gift on Valentine’s Day?

“I’m fine with your decision, Coleman. You make the call. However, as your mentor, I feel the need to tell you this. If you take action, then there’s a possibility.

Don’t overthink it. Just keep doing your best. I know you’re going to become Bonnie’s equal one day.” Elliana was worried that he’d think too much about it. So, she comforted him before hanging up. “I got it, Ms. Elliana.” He responded.Once the call ended, he held the phone, leaned on the wall, and stared off into the distance.’I understand what Elliana said, but I know all too well how successful Bonnie is.

Stop spewing nonsense!”Once the group saw that she spoke up for Bonnie, they got more excited.”Are we wrong? Nobody loved her. That’s a fact.

What are you getting worked up for?””Sigh.She’s so upset that shea look at Bonnie,’anything. Let’s just stop.Otherwise, we just might make hercry.” Bonnie had remained quiet all the time, but she couldn’t help but laugh when she caught the last two remarks.”Are you guys kindergarteners?
