My Dear Flower - The Palace of Canawa

First Day Of 6th Year

August 1st 1906
First day of 6th Year
———
Empress was sitting at her desk, staring longingly at her twin sister Yza who was sitting opposite her. They were both in their 6th year at Caranawian High School, but Empress envied everything about Yza - her beauty, her intelligence and her popularity among their teachers and fellow students. Empress had always felt like she was living in Yza's shadow, unable to match her sister's accomplishments or even her style. Even though they were unidentical twins, Yza always seemed to outshine her. Today was August 1st 1906, the start of a new school term.
Empress sighed, knowing that this new term would be just as challenging as the last. She wished she could be like Yza, with a thriving social life and good grades. Unfortunately, her studies often suffered due to her constant comparisons with Yza. It was impossible for her not to compare herself to her sister, even though she knew it was unhealthy. She couldn't shake off the feeling of envy that constantly gnawed away at her. Yza always seemed to have everything under control, while the poor Empress was always struggling to keep up.

Despite the intense envy she felt toward her sister, Empress couldn't help but love the tight bond they shared as twins. They were a team, helping each other through their struggles and celebrating each other's victories. Deep down, Empress knew that Yza was struggling too, even if Yza didn't show it. She wished she could be more open with her twin about her insecurities, but she was afraid of being vulnerable and admitting her weaknesses. Empress had never told anyone about her secret envy of Yza. It was a shameful secret that she kept bottled up inside, afraid that it would ruin the special bond they shared.
As August dragged on, the envy continued to fester within Empress. She couldn't help but think that she was constantly falling behind Yza, no matter how hard she tried. It seemed like Yza was able to effortlessly excel at everything she did, while Empress had to work twice as hard to keep up. The constant comparisons and feelings of inadequacy were taking a toll on Empress's mental health and she started to retreat more and more into herself. It was starting to feel like she was trapped in a never-ending cycle of envy and self-doubt. She needed to break free, but she didn't know how. She wondered if it was possible to change the way she felt about herself and her sister.

August crept by like a snail, leaving Empress feeling stuck in a cycle of envy and self-doubt. As the first day of the new school term approached, Empress felt her heart racing with nerves. She knew that the comparison game would start all over again as soon as classes began. As she walked into her first class, she saw Yza sitting at a nearby table with their usual group of friends. The sight of her sister looking so happy and well-adjusted made Empress burn with jealousy.

But as she sat down at her table and started taking notes, Empress found herself focusing on the lecture. She was determined not to let her feelings of envy distract her from her studies this year. As the first day of classes went by, Empress felt a sense of determination washing over her. Maybe she couldn't change the way she felt about Yza, but she could focus on her growth and development. It was time to stop comparing herself to her sister and start embracing her strengths.

After a long time of sitting in the classroom. Professor Lucia walked inside the classroom. "Greetings Class, I am Professor Lucia your new History of Magic Professor."

August 5th 1906
The days flew by, and Empress found herself buried in her studies, trying to keep up with her classmates. In History of Magic, Professor Lucia was teaching about the ancient wizarding wars. empress glanced over at Lucius M. Mateo, who sat at the table across from hers. Lucius was one of the most popular students in their year, a brilliant scholar with a charming personality. As the professor droned on, she found Lucius staring at her the whole time - a curious look on his face. She couldn't help but feel a slight twinge of curiosity, wondering what he was thinking. But before she could dwell on it too long, the professor called on Lucius to answer a question about the war, and he jumped right in, effortlessly citing dates and details with a confidence that left Empress in awe.

She remembered how they bumped into each other a few months ago and how they spent the whole day together like it wasn't their first time meeting.

As the day progressed, Empress found herself shuffling from class to class, trying to keep up with the fast-paced curriculum. After her difficult History of Magic lesson, she felt relieved to have art class next. It was a chance for her to relax and tap into her creative side. The classroom was already filled with paintings and sculptures when she arrived, and she walked over to a nearby table to grab a paintbrush. As she started to sketch out an idea for her art project, she glanced up to see Lucius watching her. She felt a slight tingle run down her spine, but tried to focus on her drawing. After a few minutes, Lucius approached her table and sat down.
