"Before legend ⭐️⭐️⭐️<br/>Legend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️<br/>Prodigy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️<br/>Champion ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️<br/>Rebel ⭐️.5<br/>Average: 3.3<br/><br/>The interesting thing about Day is he has a lot of story to tell. He failed his exams and lived on the streets. He met Tess and they took care of each other. There are a lot events about his life we are were told but not shown. This short story could of Day going in for his trial or failing and ending on the streets. Or meeting Tess. <br/><br/>Instead the story is about Day’s first kiss. I think Marie Lu chose this story because it shows the audience how Day decided to start his rebelling. It is still about a kiss but there isn’t really any romance. Plus the girl (Charlie) is 16 and Day is 12. It is a big age difference so it is weird. Day was more into the kiss because Charlie was older and hot. I don’t think the kiss meant much to Charlie. She seem like a nice but still a play girl that flirts and kisses people but it doesn’t mean anything to her. <br/><br/>The story does start when Day is living on the street but he has already been living on the streets for some time. His leg is still trying to heal. Me personally i think there are better places to start the story. <br/><br/>Also it weird Day being twelve and having the same personality as he did before. Including being very flirty."
