"You feeling alright?" Reiju asked, "Just an hour more until graduation starts"

"Right. Thanks for reminding me" i respond with sarcasm

"You're nervous?"

"... yeah. I mean, I haven't been to school in... I don't even know how long, so what if I'm not allowed to walk the stage??"

"It is true that attendance does strictly matter in your last year but hey, don't worry, the Empress filed in your absences"

"Wait .. what?" i asked, with a surprised expression

"Yeah. All your absences are excused"

"why would the Empress do that? Doesn't she know that it's against the law to mess with a student's transcript??"

"Did you also know that it's against the law to fool around with your teachers?"

my eyes widened really quick. "HEY! Be quiet"

reiju laughed and i soon found myself smiling as well

my mom soon brought in the gown, along with a dress and a one-inch heel

my mouth dropped in confusion

"Y-you .. want me to .. wear that.. to my graduation..."

"Yes! What's wrong hon'?" my mom innocently asked

"Um.. well.. I'm not .. really a dressy person.." i mumbled

"Nonsense! Do you remember how you used to often steal my dresses when you were younger" She laughed

"That was years ago! And now .. I won't match in a dress mom!"

"Y/n. Be thankful it's not those floral dresses with those poofy ends" Reiju snickered. "It's a tight black dress and I'm sure you'll look great in it"

"Yes! Listen to Reiju Y/n. She could even help you up with makeup.. especially that.. slit on your lips but anyways-"

i blinked three times for help from my dad but he simply sided with them

ah sh*t

i couldn't take a proper nap. I knew drinking coffee would help me stay awake-

I returned to the auditorium, where the graduation ceremony would be held.

Standing behind every corner were numerous parents and relatives who had already arrived.

i stride up the stairs on the stage and sat down

Men are staring at me from every angle. It's not a blank look; rather, it's a stare that would make you feel uneasy. Though I'm already used to everything.

considering I was endowed from the gods above with this natural beauty, it's only normal for people to stare at but there's always a limit

are they even aware that they're doing that while sitting by their wives?!?

How do I know if Men are loyal?

- you simply don't. Anyone who has that 'man thing' are all cheaters -

before I know it, everyone was here

The students entered wearing blue gowns, with some also donning black gowns.

the music even turned on to max

Garp soon talked to the microphone and here comes another event
