Pandora smiled when I told her about the Price checker. I had been trying to cheer her up, but I ended up feeling really revigorated myself. I enjoyed seeing my friend’s smile.
Pandora was my best friend from kindergarten and primary school. Pandora was always better than me in just a little bit, in every way. Say I then went to a top public government school for secondary education. She would be in the in one of those top Christian schools. Those schools parents would die to put their kids into. And at the interview you had to mention you knew one of the teachers casually to get in. In those schools, going to school always felt like putting on a show, you polished yourself like a piece of art, inside out. Studying was just beside the point.
To be slightly more advanced than myself, Pandora had a boyfriend and I never had. Bensimon was his name. Bensimon was a boy that did not stand out in anyway. His looks were meh and he had fringes which made him look bookish. But he had a grave melancholic air to him.
The two of them met in high school. They were like Romeo and Juliet with Hong Kong characteristics. Pandora came from a family with private housing and was always brought up to be part of the winning team in life. Bensimon came from a humble family living in public rental housing, and he got a scholarship to study at the Christian school with Pandora.
Pandora always wanted me to tag along. I always knew better than to talk too much. I sat like a doll beside her. They always welcomed me as if I was a guest to their relationship, onlooking their ideal relationship.
Bensimon and pandora always had telepathic communication. say bensimon would ask , are you, pandora would know what he was referring to and say, uh huh. Leaving a bystander like me to fill in the blanks. i presumed he asked if she was in love with him. Bensimon would say, what - . Pandora would know what he was referring to and say, nothing. I would join the dots together. I presumed he asked her what she was feeling. They enjoyed each other's presence in silence and would say nothing for long stretches of time.
I would take out my homework and do it when they were like that. It seemed like a good use of time. Bensimon would play the news in the background and listened intently, while Pandora fiddled with her hair and looked out of the window wistfully.
