Unpredictable Connection

3.Nam's birthday

Nam's POV:

I have no idea what they were cooking up, but all I got from them was, "Nam, you look like a zombie. Go rest at your condo."

Seriously? Me? A zombie? Huh... rude. (~_~)

So yeah, I'm skipping college today. A full self-care day it is. Facial, hair treatment, skincare—the whole package. If I'm gonna be called a zombie, might as well resurrect like a queen.

Engfa's POV

"Noey, you lazy bum! I told you to decorate the music room and call the representatives from every department and year," I snapped. But before she could protest, Freen chimed in, "Everything's ready."

"Oh? Then tell me their names," I asked, raising a brow. Kate stepped in, clearly trying to defuse the tension.

"We've got Freen from the Business department, 3rd year. Noey's covering Physics, 3rd year. Nam's already listed for Psychology. Then there's P'Heng from Computer Science," Kate listed. "Wait—why am I even saying all this? They're literally all here helping us decorate."

"Okay, but what about the 1st years?" I asked.

"Let's skip them," Freen shrugged.

"Why? They should feel like they're part of the college too. And they need to know they've got amazing seniors," I pointed out.

"Fair enough," Kate said. "Sir mentioned they'll be choosing the 1st-year reps tomorrow."

"And we'll be there to help," Noey added, snatching five invitation cards from the table.

"Why are you taking those?" Kate questioned.

"Only five departments have classes tomorrow. We'll get one rep from each," Noey explained. "Law, Modeling, Business, English, and Physics."

"P'Fa," Kate added, "Sir said they'll consider the students' school backgrounds—like how we were picked, right Freen?"

"Exactly," Freen nodded.

"Now let's get moving—I've got class. Heng's already there. You juniors are lucky." I said

I left them to it while the others decided to hit the café for snacks.

Freen's POV

We grabbed a quick bite at the café and went back to the music room to finalize everything.

I handled the cake. Kate was in charge of decorations. Noey designed the invitations. P'Heng ordered snacks. And all of it? Coordinated by P'Fa, who got permission from Sir.

We'd wanted to invite the teachers too, but Sir insisted it be for student representatives only. Everything was set. The party was scheduled for tomorrow at 4 PM. Once we wrapped up, we all headed back to our condos.

We do have our own houses—mansions, really—but they're about two hours away. So condos near college are more practical.

Kate's place is beside the cinema hall. Noey's near a bar. Mine? Close to a party center. P'Heng and P'Fa stay in the college hostel. Since we're all council members, we often crash at each other's places for sleepovers.

Becky's POV

First day of class today. Not exactly thrilled, but hey—fingers crossed.
