"Good morning, Rose! You seem worried. Is something bothering you? If there is, I can help you." said Bella.

"Mmm, there is something bothering me. Should I tell you now? It's a long story, you know. But it's not too long. Will you hear my story?" Rose wasn't gonna tell anyone about Cotton but Bella wanted to help her. Bella was her best friend so she thought that maybe it's fine to tell her.

"Of course, but you have to tell me at recess because it's time to go to class. Come on!" Bella grabbed Rose's hand and they ran together to class.

When they arrived at their class, Mrs Isabelle wasn't there yet, so that mean that they were not late. That's a good thing.

While waiting Mrs Isabelle, they chatted for a few minutes.

Suddenly, Mrs Isabelle came into the class with a big smile. She always come into class with that face. She never had a sad face.

Then, Mrs Isabelle taught math and some other subjects too until recess.

"Okay, class. Next week, we will have an exam. So please study. I don't want anyone to fail. Understand?"

"Yes, Mrs Isabelle!"

"Good. Class dismissed."

All the pupils tidy their books and went to recess.

As usual, Rose only eats some bread and drinks a bottle of orange juice. Rose didn't have much money.

"Rose, you said you wanted to tell me about your problem." said Bella.

"Oh, I almost forgot about it. Okay, let me tell you now." Rose explained to Bella everything about Cotton, her mother, and Cookie.

After all the explanation, Bella understood why was Rose so worry.

"Rose, can I come to your house today. I wanted to know your mother and also meet Cotton and maybe I can convince your mother too." Bella really wanted to meet Cotton because she really loves cats.

"Sure, I already wanted to invite you to come to my house. But when will you come?" asked Rose.

"I'll come after school. I'll walk to your home with you. I'll tell my father."

"Really! Thank you so much. You're indeed my best friend forever. But my brother will join us too. Is it okay for you?" Rose didn't want Bella to be uncomfortable.

"Is it Jimmy? The one that you told me. It's fine walking with him. He sounded wonderful."

"Yes, it's Jimmy. He's nice. But sometimes naughty, but really nice."

"Come, it's the end of recess. Let's go to class." Bella and Rose walked to class while talking and laughing. They were indeed best friends forever.
