Torn Between Twin Brothers - Chapter 113

Unknown to Ava, Gizelle was actually a special force soldier assigned to her by President Grant under special operations. She was actually already 25 years old and had long graduated from West Point Military Academy.

She holds a degree in Nuclear Science & Defense and Strategic, and now she’s enrolled studying Computer Engineering to accompany Ava in all her classes.

Gizelle was discovered back in the Philippines when she graduated High School at the age of 14 years old. Her second cousin, First Lady Andrea, attended her graduation with her husband, Senator Grant. That’s when she was recruited by Andrea’s father-in-law, President Sean Grant.

Just like Ava, she had taken a series of tests in order to be admitted to West Point Military Academy at a young age. However, it wasn’t easy for her during her first year. She was bullied to the point that she almost gave up. Fortunately, she was able to endure it until she earned her place and graduated with honors.

She just recently came back from an assignment, and when she was called to the White House, she thought that she would be assigned to be Pearl’s new bodyguard. However, when President Grant informed her of her assignment, she was stunned. A prodigy just like her.

But then, she was hesitant at first to accept. She was afraid that she would not be able to do the task assigned to her, which was to safeguard Ava and train her at the same time.  Being a bodyguard was fine, but to teach her– she was not sure she was up to that point yet.

However, after meeting her in person and getting to know her, Gizelle found Ava kind-hearted and humble. She took a liking to her the first day she met her. So, she made a promise to President Grant and Chairman Go that she would do her best to keep her safe and train her to the best of her ability.

She didn’t let Ava know that they would be in the same classes. She was still trying to get her footing around Ava. So, she just slowly followed Ava as she slowly made her way to her class.

Once they arrived at the building where Ava’s first class would be, she slowly cleaned her boots off the snow before entering.

Ava’s eyes widened when she saw how many students were in her class. She was so shocked by the number of students that she stood frozen at the threshold.

Students that saw her started whispering with each other, wondering if she was lost or something.

“Look at that girl; although she’s pretty, she looks like she’s lost or something.” Said a student to another one next to her.

The one next to her looked in the direction where Ava was standing, “I wonder if she’s looking for someone and doesn’t know how to speak English. Maybe someone will help her.” She replied back.

The first student was going to say something back, but then she saw that another student got up and approached the young girl, so she went back to what she was doing before she spotted Ava.

A young man sitting at the front stood up and went towards Ava. When he reached her, he straight up asked, “Excuse me, Miss… Are you looking for someone?” His voice was soft and mellow while waiting for her to reply.

“Huh? Oh, no-no-no! I’m here for the class. This is English 101, right? I hope anyway.” Ava answered in perfect English while looking straight at the young man standing before her without batting an eye.

The young man scratched his head before stepping aside to let Ava get inside.

“Well, come on then. You don’t want to freeze to death before the class begins.” He playfully bantered while a smile was plastered on his face.

At first, Ava was nervous because she didn’t know anyone. But with the young man being friendly and kind to her, she felt at ease and smiled back before continuing to look for a vacant seat all the way to the back.

When her eyes caught one, she simply thanked the young man and proceeded towards the vacant seat.

As she passed by other students, she could hear them murmuring. Some wondered if she was in the right place, while others speculated that she didn’t belong there. She just ignored them and continued on.

As she got closer to the back, she still heard more students murmuring. This time it was loud enough to make sure she listened to every word.

Some wondered how old she was, and others made derogatory remarks. She let it all go through one ear and out the other.

Ava was busy putting down her backpack and removing some of the winter gear she was wearing. But, unfortunately, she didn’t realize that Gizelle had passed by behind her and went to the last row to sit behind her.

After she removed the heavy winter gear that she was wearing, she checked the time on her cell phone and saw that she still had time before the professor arrived. She quickly took a video of her surroundings, and that’s when she spotted Gizelle seated three rows behind her.

Gizelle was going to duck down and hide but decided not to. It was better that Ava knew they were taking the same classes, so they could sit together in the future. That would make her job much easier and also help her with her lessons.

The future came quickly. As soon as Ava turned off the recording, she waved at Gizelle to come down and sit next to her. Gizelle picked up all her belongings and went to where Ava was.

“Why did you sit all the way up there? Didn’t you see me? Also, why didn’t you tell me that we will be in the same class this morning? You let me arrive here by myself.” Ava bombarded her with questions while complaining at the same time.

“Whoa! Slow down, kiddo!” Said Gizelle. She had forgotten that their relationship was companion and boss. She was amused with how Ava was so anxious that she didn’t inform her of having the same classes, and she didn’t realize that she had acted very informally towards her.

However, she was quick to change her demeanor and acted timid in front of Ava. It’s not the time yet to reveal everything about her identity….
