The Last Normal Years

Hiding Things Vs True Lies

There is a difference between just hiding things and telling actual lies about other people. Flora and I bordered the Golden owl and left Redfountain Academy after the so nicknamed Specialist squad of Boys' our team liked declared they needed to have an all boys' only meeting. Leaving Stella alone to argue with Headmaster of their school Saladdin. Flora has uncovered a mystery symbol a letter C in one of the purple colors of Melody's realm wide flag. She wonders if this mystery letter had any connection to Musa or Ace as they were both Melody citizens trusted by the Royals of that said planet realm of Music.

"Bloom, are you okay?" Flora asked.

"I'm not so sure that sophomore team has earnt my trust yet if anything today they proved we can't trust them currently." I responded.

"That was suspicious for them to push us away like that when we tried to help save one of their teammates, I agree Bloom, I don't like any of those boys yet. They don't call out to me."

"I like Riven, I don't think he means everything he said." I stated.

"But he's a bully, Bloom,"

"Only, because he probably met a bully in his life that look in his eyes when he went against me in the dragon armor proofing fire proof training chamber. He was terrified of me, Flora. It's the same terrible horrified face on all the orphans I see welcomed into our Earthly hone at Christmas, Riven looks exactly like some of them. He's an orphan Flora, I know it to be true. Only orphans share that desperate despairing lost look like he has you can't knock it out of them it's locked into their DNA, it will be a part of them forever. His sarcasm is abrasive armored wall to hide how really sensitive he actually is."

Thiabut was listening to this conversation between the two fairies. And was confirming his own suspicions about Riven's attitude now.

"I have met orphans who have hardened themselves so hard that people accuse them of being bullies when all they are trying to do is protect themselves from real bullies." I tell Flora immediately right then and there.

"Sanders says we're approaching Alfea, Flora, Bloom and Thiabut." Kaiden, Aiden's older twin brother announced to them immediately."

"Have a good evening fairies, Flora and Bloom." Thiabut says a thoughtful goodbye to us as he escorted us off the ramp and greeted Griselda.

"Good evening, Thiabut." Griselda greets him. "Welcome back, Flora and Bloom, I got an excellent report from Professor Cordatorta on your aid to those heroes this afternoon, great job."

"It's our job to be kind to even those who we don't trust or like yet and to be as helpful to become compassion filled fairies if we ever want to be really true fairies, Griselda. That's the only thing Bloom and I want to be remembered as true examples of Fairies, Mistress Griselda, we're going to the regular library to study a couple hours before we go to bed, ma'am." Flora answered her most sophisticatedly.

"Very well, off you two go then, take Ace with you he seems bored, girls." Griselda encouraged us both. I walked over to him sitting on a bench next to the giant golden trunk colored oak.

"Griselda says you should come join us to study in the library, Ace." I invite him. "She thinks you're bored."

"Ah, the Head of Discipline, she was correct, I am bored. I'd love to join you two studying." He replied. We walked into the building the three of us together headed towards the library itself as a group where we found Tecna and Musa waiting for us now at a table also.

"Where's Stella?" questions Musa.

"Still arguing with Headmaster Saladdin at Redfountain." I responded. "We decided not to stay for the whole argument ourselves, too much drama for our third day here at Fairy school."

"Yep, Bloom's right." Flora agrees immediately. 

"Well, let's begin our royal etiquette guides." Tecna spoke to the other kids around us. "Miss Musa why don't you tell us how to greet the twin Princesses of Melody whom you seem to know personally."

"I am sorry, I gave you that impression, I've only met one of the Princess twins, Princess Galatea, but I have read about what is to be expected when visiting their boombox of a palace Tecna." spoke Musa. "She convinced her older sister Princess Melody to have me sent to school first while my Dad was unavailable due to his job outside the realm. It's not safe for children my age to be unsupervised on Melody realm they get kidnapped."

"Maybe I should start, Tecna, there are non magical royals still existence on Earth." I decided to volunteer my knowledge. "There's been plenty of research done with them as well."

"Very well then you may begin to coach us, Bloom." Tecna agreed allowing Musa to be off the hook and so I shared my etiquette knowledge from Gardenia Grade High's Humane Manners Class of Etiquette including how to eat at a fancy dinner party whether in the U. S. A or Europe or Southern Asia also.

"Your rules are different and unique simple less complicated, Bloom." Flora says. "I should like to see these things one day myself on Earth. It reminds me a bit of Linphea the way you describe its appearance and customs, roomie. I am still having nightmares, unfortunately."

"I think I can help with that, Flora, no problem." I tell her. Flora was my bestie currently, so soft, so loyal, so agreeable, so patient and understanding.
