Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband
Chapter 352 New Friends
"Sofia, you missed so many classes. If you need any assistance or notes, you can ask me," Rena's words broke through the air, laced with sincerity and genuine concern. Sofia lifted her head, her eyes meeting Rena's with surprise. The kindness radiating from Rena's offer struck a chord within Sofia, for it was a gesture she had never experienced before.

"Thanks, I really appreciate that," Sofia's voice carried a soft gratitude, her heart warming at the thought of someone extending a helping hand. In that moment, Rena's genuine nature pierced through the superficial facade that often dominated the halls of their school.

"I got you, girl. So... friends?" Rena's hand extended towards Sofia, an invitation to forge a connection. Sofia hesitated for a moment, her mind wrestling with the skepticism bred from past experiences. But the sincerity in Rena's eyes and the warmth of her gesture melted Sofia's reservations. With a tentative smile, she reached out and clasped Rena's hand in hers.

"By the way, I'm Rena," Rena introduced herself, a touch of playfulness in her tone.

"I know your name," Sofia responded, a smile gracing her lips. Though she had often remained in the periphery of social interactions, Sofia had observed her classmates closely, taking note of their names and faces.

"Really, babe?" Rena's eyes sparkled with amusement.

Before Sofia could delve deeper into their conversation, a new presence made itself known.

“Hey, I am Enzo.” Enzo, one of the scholars known for his academic prowess, approached and took a seat next to Sofia. His reputation preceded him, a testament to his exceptional intellect and consistent academic achievements.

"Hi, I'm Sofia," she greeted him, her voice carrying a hint of curiosity and intrigue. Enzo nodded, acknowledging her presence with a silent affirmation.

"Sofia, if you need help with your studies, ask me anytime," Enzo said with sincerity. "That would be great, thank you," Sofia's words carried a tinge of relief, grateful for the opportunity to seek academic support and connect with someone who saw beyond the superficialities that had enveloped her.

Their conversation was cut short as the teacher entered the room, commanding the attention of the students. The classroom descended into a hushed silence, the rustling of papers and the tapping of pens becoming the sole sounds that permeated the air.

After the class concluded, Sofia gathered her belongings, her mind contemplating the brief respite she had before her next lesson. The library called to her, it's quiet embrace beckoning her to immerse herself in the world of books and knowledge. Accompanied by her vigilant bodyguards, Sofia made her way towards the library. A familiar voice called out to her. Enzo appeared, rushing towards her with a bag slung over his shoulder, his eagerness palpable.

A bodyguard instinctively stepped forward, creating a barrier between Enzo and Sofia, his protective stance unwavering. Sofia, realizing the situation, intervened, her voice firm yet gentle as she addressed the bodyguard.

"Please don't stop him. He is my friend," Sofia's request hung in the air, her eyes earnestly meeting those of the bodyguard. After a brief pause, he glanced between Enzo and Sofia, silently acknowledging her trust in her friend, and he slowly withdrew his hand, allowing Enzo to approach.

Enzo, his eyes widening in surprise, couldn't help but comment on the sight of the security detail that shadowed Sofia's every move. Rubbing his shoulder where the bodyguard had briefly restrained him, he spoke with a mix of awe and amusement.

"Wow, dude, you've got your own security detail following you everywhere," Enzo's words dripped with a mixture of astonishment and playful jest. Sofia shook her head lightly, a soft smile gracing her lips as she responded.

"Just a precaution," Sofia's voice carried a hint of understatement, aware of the truth that lay beneath the surface.

"Rena said that you need some notes. You missed your classes for almost a month," Enzo explained, pulling out a stack of notebooks from his bag and placing them before Sofia. "Look, we have two classes in common. I can give you notes on those subjects, and Rena will provide you with notes for the others, okay?"

Gratitude welled up within Sofia as she accepted the proffered notes, appreciating Enzo's willingness to lend a helping hand. "Thank you, Enzo. I'll make sure to return them once I've copied all the notes."
