Chapter-7: St.Freya

The next day Mr.Winters woke me up at 5:30 Am. I got up and got dressed to start the morning warm up: Stretching, jogging and after that I do the classic military warm up exercises. This became a routine for me but one thing that I can't get used to even now.. maybe two things I can't still get used to is the body and the fact that Mr.Winters wakes me up using the REVEILLE & ASSEMBLY Bugle Calls and he sings it with a trumpet. So why no one complains in this neighborhood? Because this building is soundproof believe it or not.

(sing) Anyway, after the morning warm up I got into the shower to clean myself and after the two months I lived in this body, I got used to moving and seeing my naked body.. or at least I can take a shower without having a tomato face after.

Now we are having breakfast and it's quite, a little too quite. It's like the first week after I came here. Back then I didn't talk unless I was asked or spoken to, after that week I got more comfortable and the atmosphere became more normal for a family, I even got a little attached to them.

"So, are you two able to handle a missing waiter?" I tried to make a conversation.

"No worry, I sent a message on the group chat and Sera told me that she found someone that was looking for a part-time job, so you can enroll in St.Freya without any worry." Ms.Winters assured me so I won't worry. (Damn Sera is a fast one.)

"But I still need to take an entrance exam, right?" I said obviously.

"St.Freya is a place where valkyries are trained, how do you know that there will be an exam waiting for you?" Mr.Winters looked at me after he stopped eating. I can see him holding a smile back.

"It's a school, of course there will be an exam." he needed to put a hand up to cover his smile and I just glared at him. "Now thanks to Ms.Ashley I won't look like an idiot and fail on the written exam."

"Even if you failed the written exam, you'll just need to take it again and again until you get a passing score, so don't worry, if they see talent in you they will make all exceptions to get u in school." Mr.Winters told me while he was gathering hes empty plates. (Right. Even the tuna got accepted so I don't need to worry.)

I got my suitcase and backpack 'Yes, that is the same one from the dead city.' and got down to wait for Himeko or whoever will come to get me. While waiting I made sure I had everything with me, from my clothes and necessities to my laptop and phone charger. I look around and again I see that this coffee shop is doing very wall, some of the usual customers even asked me if I already move out, I just responded that I will enroll to a school with dorms and they will not get rid of me that easily. My normal life will change from today onward will change for the better or for the worse.

Now it's 6:58 am and Himeko arrived in a red car, she comes inside to me and before I could get up to leave she told me wait a minute. Himeko goes to the counter and orders a cappuccino and like a preorder she got her cappuccino with a lid on her cup.

"So, you ready to go?" she said while coming to me with her coffee in her hand, I just gave her an "are you serious" look but nod. I take my suitcase and backpack and go to the car. You could think they are heavy since I am a girl now, I need more things but due to me being a Kaslana I don't feel them so heavy. I put my suitcase in the trunk of the car and got in the front seat beside Himeko, who is driving.

We didn't talk on the way to St.Freya, not because I didn't want or felt awkward but because I just stared out the window all the way. The city was normal but futuristic and it was just beautiful to look at, I couldn't help but stare all the way there. On the way I heard a chuckle but ignore it, that is how mesmerized I was by the city. When we almost arrived the school, I could notice that the building weren't as big and there was a bridge connecting St.Freya and the city, since St.Freya is on an artificial island.
