After leaving the classroom, Angelo Herran and Paulita sat by the flower bed under the big tree.
Paulita’s big, dark eyes stared at Angelo Herran and asked with a small beak, “Angelo Herran, why are you helping me?”
Angelo Herran gave him an arrogant look and raised his hand to rub his mushroom head: “Stupid!”.
Paulita growled, “You’re messing up my hair!”.
As the little girl smoothed her hair, she said in a serious manner, “Angelo Herrán, as much as I thank you for helping me just now, I don’t want to talk to you if you make me angry again.”
“When have I ever made you angry?”
She was the one making her angry!
He had been so good to her and she was still on that Rayman Matas’ ass in first gear! She was pissing him off!
Paulita looked at him with wide eyes, “You just messed my hair up and that’s what pisses me off.”
Idiot!
Angelo Herrán stopped talking to her, turned around and addressed the class with a certain arrogance.
Paulita, too innocent to understand any of this, rubbed her little head and followed her back to the classroom.
…
During the midday siesta, Paulita was tucked up in bed when she felt someone tugging at her clothes.
Lucio Carda, who was sitting in his back seat, seemed to have discovered some new world and was having fun tugging and bouncing Paulita’s little vest hanging from her short white sleeves.
Paulita woke up with a jerk and looked at Lucio Carda with wide eyes, “Why are you pulling my clothes!”.
“I’m pulling! What’s wrong with ripping my clothes off!”.
Paulita snorted, her face reddening, Estrella had said not to let anyone pull her clothes, Paulita reached out and pushed Lucio Carda away, “No way!”
Lucio Carda became enraged and reached over and tugged at Paulita’s clothes, children have bad habits too, the more you don’t give, the more I will.
Angelo Herrán, who had not slept much since he finished his nap, saw Paulita and Lucio Carda fighting and went over to separate them.
“Lucius Carda, what are you doing, you’re a man! Bullying a girl!”
“It was Paula Rouco who pushed me to the ground first!”.
Paulita indignantly pointed to Lucio Carda: “You’re the one who always pulls my clothes!”.
He had clearly warned him to stop tugging at his clothes, but Lucio Carda still ignored him!
When Angelo Herrán heard this, he immediately grabbed Lucio Carda by the collar of his shirt and asked, “Why are you pulling Paula Rouco’s clothes!”
“I can’t pull for fun? None of your business!”
Why is it none of your business? Of course it’s your business!
Paula Rouco is his daughter-in-law …
Angelo Herrán punches Lucio Carda!
Lucio Carda could not stand up to Angelo Herrán and held his head in his hands: “Angelo Herrán, stop! The teacher will hit you if you hit me! The teacher said not to fight”.
“Say! Are you still bullying Paula Rouco?”
“No, I won’t! Stop it now.”
Angelo Herrán had just stopped when Lucio Carda pushed him and ran out of the classroom in anger to tell the teacher!
Paulita pursed her lips and said, “Oh no, Lucio Carda is going to tell on us, what if the teacher punishes us?”.
“What, are you afraid?”
Paulita asked with a slight frown of curiosity, “Aren’t you afraid?”.
Angelo Herrán growled, he was not afraid, he was not Lucio Carda, he was a man like his father, he was not a coward.
…
After a while, the teacher called Angelo Herrán and Paulita to come out.
The two little ones stood against the wall.
The teacher asked in a serious voice, “Paula Rouco, Angelo Herrán, why did you and Lucio Carda fight?”
Angelo Herrán said: “Lucio Carda is bullying Paula Rouco”.
The teacher frowned, this Angelo Herran, she did not know how he had come to the International Kindergarten in the first place, all the children in this kindergarten had rich families, but this Angelo Herran, his parents seemed to be ordinary working people, it did not matter, but the important thing was that Angelo Herran was also the king of the class and often led the trouble.
The teacher, who was somewhat prejudiced against Angelo Herran, said, “What do you care if Lucio Carda fights with Paula Rouco?”
Angelo Herrán frowned and said earnestly, “I am a good friend of Paula Rouco and I cannot leave Paula Rouco alone when she is being harassed.”
Paulita looked at Angelo Herrán with wide eyes, when had Angelo Herrán become so nice?
The teacher grabbed her arms and looked back at Paulita, her voice softening slightly as she asked, “Paula Rouco, how is Lucio Carda harassing you?”
Paulita said with sincerity, “Lucio Carda would pull my clothes and I would tell him to stop, but he kept pulling on my clothes.”
“And for that, you pushed Lucio Carda?”.
Paulita puffed up her little face and said, “Estrella said that it is not allowed to pull people’s clothes. Especially the kids.
“Star? Who’s Star?”
“My mother.”
The teacher, probably clear, educated, “But Lucio Carda has only pulled your clothes a couple of times, you shouldn’t have reached out and pushed him.”
This Paula Rouco, with rather quick hands, but remembered that Paula Rouco was the daughter of the president of the group La Ciudad SantaGrupo Rouco, her grandfather was also a general officer with gold olive branch, this Paula Rouco was the daughter of a general officer right and a rich third generation, it was not good to criticize too much.
Lucio Carda, whose father was a civil servant, could not be criticized either, especially since he was the one who was defeated in this case.
So, with her arms crossed, the teacher said, “Lucio Carda, Paula Rouco, you two go in first.”
Paulita’s frown deepened and she said in a milky voice: “Maestra, it’s not Angelo Herrán’s fault, it was Lucio Carda who misbehaved and I pushed him.”
“Angelo Herrán has no right to come in and hit someone.”
If we don’t discipline him, he will become a violent person.”
Angelo Herrán said, “Paula Rouco, you go in.”
Paulita had no choice but to step back and enter the classroom. She saw the teacher outside criticizing Angelo Herran and hitting him on the palm of his hand with a ruler.
It was early summer in The Holy City, but the afternoon sun was already very hot and Angelo Herran was standing in the sun with sweat running down his forehead.
Lucio Carda saw the way Angelo Herran was being punished and couldn’t help but make a dejected face, “Hmph, I told you to hit me!”
Paulita glared at Lucio Carda and ran off to stand on the corner with Angelo Herrán.
Angelo Herran: “…”
“Who told you to go out?”
Paulita justified herself, “The mistake was obviously made by all of us, so I’m going to side with you, but I don’t think we’re to blame, obviously it was Lucio Carda who was so bad!”
Angelo Herran, his heart sweet, said with his chin up, “Yes, we were right.”
It was hot outside and Paulita’s face was red from the sun and her head was a little dizzy.
Angelo Herrán looked at her worriedly: “Paula Rouco, you’d better go in!
“No, I’m not going in.”
After a short while, the teacher approached and saw that Paula Rouco appeared to be suffering from heat stroke and wrinkled her nose slightly, “Paula Rouco, the teacher didn’t tell you to stop, why did you come out?”
“You have wronged Angelo Herrán, professor.”
“The teacher has not accused him, he did hit someone.”
The two little ones stood stubbornly against the wall.
The hot sweat, dripping into their eyes, stung a little.
Paulita wiped her sweat with her hand, “Angelo Herrán, are you hot?”.
“Get your ass in there and stop punishing yourself with me, you fool.”
“I’m not.”
