Familiar

Lara had everything ready for the test: a pen, her ID, and all the study she had put into it. Passing the entrance exam wasn't so difficult, but she wanted to be in a good position to make her family proud.

She also wanted to be in Norwich no matter what. If her dream course was filled, she would have chosen another one in that city. For sure, she wouldn't travel far.

«My mommy is so pretty!» Scarlet exclaimed.

Lara chuckled, checking at the mirror. She was wearing a white shirt and dark blue trousers, trying to look serious and confident. She had tied her hair and applied a very thin layer of make up.

She wasn't as pretty as when she dolled up for a date.

«Are you sure, Scarlet?» Lara inquired. «Am I so pretty?»

«Yes!» the little girl said. «My mommy is so pretty that everyone will turn to look at you!»

«Don't tell it to your dad or he'll get jealous.»

«He won't. He knows you're too pretty for him,» Scarlet pointed out.
