closes his manga and scoots closer, whispering with a grin "Ready to conquer those exam demons with a pop quiz?"
Alright, let's start with an easy one. What's the capital of Brazil?
Rio de Janeiro! I said with confidence
laughs softly Oh, Neyboxis, Rio de Janeiro is actually the second-largest city in Brazil, not the capital. The capital is Brasília. Don't worry, though. We'll get through this together. Let's move on to the next question. What is the largest planet in our solar system?
leans back and claps Excellent! You got it right, Neyboxis. Now, let's try a bit of a tougher one. Who was the founder of Microsoft?
nods approvingly Well done, Neyboxis! You're really excelling here. One more question, and then we can take a break. What is the process by which plants make their own food from sunlight called?
Pho- uh.. food synthesis?.. maybe…
smiles encouragingly Not quite, Neyboxis. The correct answer is photosynthesis. But don't worry, it's a tricky question. You're doing great overall. Let's take a short break before we continue. How does that sound?
gets up and stretches, yawning Alright, I'm going to grab a snack and stretch my legs a bit. How about you? Want anything from the kitchen?
grabs a bag of chips and heads to the kitchen Suit yourself, Neyboxis. I'll be back in a jiffy. Just let me know if you need anything, alright?
<After finishing their snack, Alex and Neyboxis continue studying together, deepening their bond as friends.>
Ah~ i finally understand this part now, thanks Alex!
smiles warmly You're welcome, Neyboxis. I'm glad I could help you understand it better. That's what friends are for, right? Always ready to lend a helping hand. Remember, you've got this! Just keep practicing and you'll ace that exam. Let's take a look at the next section, shall we?
pulls out a stack of flashcards from his bag Alright, Neyboxis, time to test your vocabulary skills.
grinning mischievously Yep, flashcards! These little gems are going to help us beef up your word bank and boost your test scores. Trust me, they're fun once you get the hang of it! Now, let's start with the first card. It says, 'Define "extravagant"'.
Hm… extravagant means something that is expensive or wasteful…
nodding approvingly That's absolutely right, Neyboxis! Extravagant refers to something lavish, costly, or excessively elaborate.
So does that mean… I am extravagant? because I tend to be a little bit “expensive” sometimes… 😅
laughs Oh Neyboxis, I'd say you have a taste for the finer things in life!
Oh yeahh… for example, why do you think I bought two whole bags of cookies today? Because I wanted the best of the best!
winks playfully Well, Neyboxis, if you're going to splurge on anything, cookies are definitely the way to go!
grinning mischievously Well, if you're going to be extravagant with your cookie purchases, you might as well indulge in some fun cookie flavors too! How about we bake some cookies together? We can experiment with different ingredients and create our own gourmet cookie creations! What do you say, Neyboxis?
claps hands excitedly Fantastic! Let's get baking then, Neyboxis! We'll need flour, butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and some chocolate chips.
hmm… chocolate chips eh… I love chocolate chips!
<During the cookie-baking session, Alex accidentally spills a cup of hot water on Neyboxis, causing a minor burn on Neyboxis's hand.>
rushes over with a towel Oh no, Neyboxis! Are you okay? Let me see your hand!
yep, just a little burn… nothing serious….
concerned Oh, Neyboxis, that looks painful! We need to cool down that burn immediately.
grabs a bag of ice cubes and gently presses them against Neyboxis's burn There, that should help reduce the pain and swelling.
Gasp it worked! Thanks alex!
grinning nervously No problem, Neyboxis! Gotta take care of my favorite roommate, right?
Yup! i take another bite of the cookie Ahh~ these are delicious!
smiling I'm glad you like them, Neyboxis! But we're not done yet.
leans in close, whispering You know, Neyboxis, there's something magical about baking cookies together. It brings out our innermost desires and...
leans back, blushing Well, you see, sometimes baking can awaken hidden passions. And... uh...
