“Jeanice Neal, are you sure?”
In the office, my homeroom teacher looked at me, face full of concern.
I nodded. Still, she seemed confused.
“You’ve always been strong in science, yes–but weren’t you set on choosing business studies before?
“Why the sudden change?”
I kept my head down. Back then, business studies was something my parents forced on me.
Because Anderson’s future Luna needed a business studies background.
It was simple logic for them.
But now that I’ve been reborn, there’s no reason to follow their plan.
I looked up and smiled at the teacher.
“Because the sun’s finally up.

Strange as it sounded, she was still glad I switched back to science.
After the Grade 10 break, with my new science track selected, we were about to be sorted into new classes.
On the last day of break, I went to a salon.

I cut off my long hair and thick bangs and went for a sleek, shoulder- length cut.
“Wow, great taste! This cut suits your face shape–so chic!”
I looked in the mirror at the fresh version of me and smiled, satisfied.
First day back, a few classmates swarmed around me, surprised.
“Jeanice, you cut your hair?”
“This short hair looks so good! You’re like a different person!”
“Totally! You look like one of those smart lady scientists in zombie movies!”

All their chatter stirred Anderson, who had been resting his eyes with his head down at the front.
He turned his head lazily for a glance, then looked away just as fast.
My parents wanted me to become the Alpha’s mate, but that was all wishful thinking.
We weren’t even in the same league as the Giorgio family.
It had taken my parents serious effort just to get me into the same school.
So even though I’d been fed everything about Anderson–his likes, habits, and history–I’d never actually spoken to him.
To him, I was a total stranger.
And honestly, I preferred it that way. Let’s stay strangers.

High school life flew by.
In the blink of an eye, it was Grade 11.
In my past life, I was already ranking in the top 10 for science even before class placements.
Now, with memories from my past life, I’d made it to the top 5.
At the beginning–of–year exam, I ranked second–just five points behind Anderson,
“Damn, Anderson, your #1 spot might be in danger! Jeanice is in your
class too. You know her?”
A crowd gathered around the ranking list.
I happened to overhear the conversation between Anderson and his friend.
After his friend spoke, Anderson didn’t respond right away.
He just stared at the scores.
We were only five points apart.
He stared for over a minute, then turned to leave, tossing out two words –“Not close.”
Not long after the start of Grade 11, during a math class, the teacher put a competition problem on the board–a test for those interested in joining the math team.
Ever since I chose the science track, I’d set my sights on math
competitions.

Only by aiming higher could I learn more; could I give my youth a new kind of meaning.
The problems kept coming, one after another.
By the time we reached the final one, the teacher had filled the entire board just by writing it out.
The room went silent. Then I raised my hand–and solved it.
The class exploded.
