Diana, I felt like I did four years ago when I asked Marilla about staying at Green Gables. In the afternoon we had a history exam. I think I did OK. But Diana, tomorrow we have geometry. I am worried about that.

The exams finished and Anne went home on Friday evening. She was very tired and happy. Diana was waiting.

‘It’s wonderful to see you. I miss you. Did you do well?’ asked Diana.

‘I think so, except with geometry. I don’t think I passed. It’s so good to be back. Green Gables is the best place in the world,’ said Anne.

‘When do you get the results?’ asked Diana.

‘In two weeks. They’ll be in the newspaper. Two weeks of waiting,’ said Anne.

‘You’ll pass. Don’t worry.’

‘I want to pass with a high score or not at all,’ said Anne. She seemed angry.

Diana understood that Anne wanted a high score than Gilbert.

Anne and Gilbert were in competition with each other. They saw each other but didn’t speak. It was like they were strangers. Anne secretly wished that she was friends with Gilbert again. But she also wanted to get a higher score than him in the exam. Everyone thought Gilbert was going to get the highest score. She wanted to make Matthew and Marilla proud. Well mostly Matthew.

The results were late. Finally after three weeks of waiting, they arrived. Diana came running to the house with a newspaper.

‘Anne, you’ve passed. You and Gilbert. You’re equal firsts,’ said Diana.

Anne took the newspaper. Yes, their names were at the top of a list of two hundred pupils.
