Chapter 1
All at the same time

It had been six months since Eva won the big race on Oban. She lived with her father and had changed schools, but her grade point average had gone from a 4 to a 5.
"Eva, that's a 5th again," began Don Wei, Eva's father, getting upset about the math work. But Eva wasn't listening at all. She was playing around with her cell phone, suddenly she jumped up and said, "Good dad. I'll meet my friend in the park." Just as she was about to leave the room, her father said, "Nothing there. You are house arrested until your grades get better "" What? But you can't do that. "" You can see that I can. "He went to his daughter and held out his hand. "Please give me your cell phone." "What? No, definitely not:" "You will get it back when the house arrest is over." Reluctantly, Eva gave her father the cell phone and went stinking into her room. "Oh Eva. House arrest also means that you are not allowed to fly Racer. The television, the telephone, the computer and the stereo system are taboo." "And who do I have to go on the Internet because of my schoolwork?" "Dan you can answer, but only when I'm there. "> He can't control everything. <, thought Eva and grinned. "And one more thing. After school you come to work with me. I can better control that you do your tasks."
On the wet day, Don Wei drove his daughter to school so that he was sure that she would go.
"Your father is totally stupid.", Said Eva's friend Sarah, when Eva had told her why she couldn't come yesterday. He wants to control you at work too? Honestly, it has a bang. " "Maybe. "" Not just maybe Eva. Parents don't do that. They don't really have time for that. "explained Sarah.
While Eva wasn't paying attention in class, she understood what Sarah was trying to tell her. > He wants to control me so that he can determine what I will do all my life. "
For the rest of the school day Eva thought about how she could escape her father's control. She planned to just run away after school, but somehow she couldn't when school was over. Somehow Eva had the feeling that Sarah wasn't right, but she didn't know why he should do it otherwise.
At the exact moment in which she was about to leave, her father drove to the school grounds to pick her up. Reluctantly she got in and Don drove off without saying a word.
"I know that you're mad at me, but I don't know if you know why I'm doing this.", Don Wei said after a short time. "Yes, I'm mad at you and no, I don't know." "I don't want your school performance to suffer from your talent," he replies, slightly depressed. "Why didn't you tell me that right away?" Asked Eva. "I didn't know if you got it," said Don and drove onto the Wei Race grounds."And I was afraid of losing you again." "Just because of something like that I'm not leaving.", Eva replied, slightly annoyed, as she noticed that her father did not trust her. “I won the Oban race and now you don't trust me just because of a few bad marks?” The car stopped and Eva got out. She wanted to run, but her father held her tight and hugged her. "I'm sorry Eva. You're absolutely right. I should trust you more, but I don't want to lose you again. Somehow I want to make up for the mistakes I've made. I just don't know how." While he When she spoke, she understood him first. She realized that he loved her very much and that he did everything just for her.
It took Eva most of the afternoon to do her homework. She even did what she had to do. When she had finished the tasks, she was allowed to help the mechanics a little.
In the evening Don and Eva drove home and it occurred to Eva that she could write the math work again tomorrow, because her teacher had given her another chance because of the 5. "About what subject?" Don wanted to know. "Word problems," replied Eva. “And I can't do that at all.” “Dan we just practice them together.” “Can you do that?” “As a race manager you get a lot of bills that you have to check.” “Great!” Said Eva enthusiastically and hugged her father .
Don Wei noticed that his daughter could only do the tasks that interested her. The tasks that she solved the fastest were those with racers and so he said to his daughter: "Eva" "Yes" "Try changing the most difficult task." "Changing?" Asked Eva, slightly confused. "Yes. You can solve the tasks with the racers without any problems. Try changing the most difficult task to Racer as well." Eva understood what her father wanted to say to her and so she changed the task. “But you mustn't forget to write down the answer correctly.” “How right?” “When you answer the answer, you have to make sure that it fits the task that is written there.” “Oh. Right.” Eva agreed gratefully. At the exact moment when Don Wei wanted to control the task, the phone rang. "Do the worst thing ever. I'll be right back."
Within 10 minutes Eva had completed the last 6 tasks and her father was still on the phone. She noticed that it could take even longer and so she gave her father a quick kiss on the cheek and went to bed.

On the wet morning, Don Wei would have slept if the phone hadn't rang. Don Wei struggled out of bed to answer the phone. While doing so, he looked at the digital alarm clock, which said 4:30 a.m., and already hated the caller. "Don Wei.", He said grumbling into the phone. "Good morning Don. It's Rick." "What are you calling Rick so early?" "Early?" "Yes. It's just 4:30 owl." "What are you talking about, Don? It's 7:40 am and you wanted to be at work a long time ago."" What it is already 7:40 am. ", Don Wei shouted into the phone in disbelief. Before Rick could continue speaking, Don had already hung up and ran to wake Eva." Eva woke up. You have to go to school. "Eva stirred and looked at her clock radio." It's only 4:35 am. "" No, there was a power failure and it is already 7:45 am. " "What? Show me. "Don showed his daughter her cell phone and it actually read 7:45 am.
Don and Eva got dressed in no time. Eva was still looking for her school supplies when Don came around the corner and steered her to the car. "Do you have everything?" Don asked his daughter as they sat in the car on the way to their school. "Yes," replied Eva, annoyed.
One minute before school started, Eva came into the classroom. Your teacher was already there. She looked seriously at Eva. "I didn't think you'd come.", Said the teacher, astonished. "Sorry. My alarm clock went off because we had a power outage that night." "Have a seat. You came just in time. And now get out your homework." When the teacher saw that Eva had her homework too, she thought :> It's going to be a really good day. She even has the tasks that she should do

When Eva was allowed to write her work again, the others corrected their work and the teacher checked Eva's homework.
