Girl from Parallel universe -Part 1

25 | Solitude

It was the time when most of the high school students went shopping for the annual dance , with a partner. Crowding the stores, spending the money on the pieces of cloths they might never touch again. Spending hours and hours on their appearance. All dressed up , wearing glimmery dresses and showing each other what they are or they want to turn into. Trying to make every head turn their way.

But it was different for Eden's Academy of Excellence. Students don't spend their time on getting dressed up even after the final exams. One thing they surely enjoy doing is spread rumors about who might be a selected student once the middle schoolers entre high school. Telling each other what it might be being in a 3 room apartment all to yourself. It's forbidden for students to enter the selective students apartment building , exclusively build for the extraordinary blooming talents of the school to spend their time. Perfectly designed study area along with a mini cafeteria or shop whatever it might look like to one's eyes, is one of the things that catches eyes. But the most important thing is , their's no warden to keep an eye on you and no separate hostel buildings according to gender.

Who might be the next heir of Eden's legacy is one thing but the one that excites most of them and the one that vanished sleep from most of the eyes is the title of " Student of the year". Classic , as the principle describes it , is awarded to the students with most academic points and the student who was the best in the extra curricular activities.

A word has been going around that apparently the students who deserved it were provided with a cape before hand to wear at the ceremony. The potential heirs of what they call the golden opportunity to be on top of the world. The whole world of some students revolve around this , especially the selected students. They roam around with a warm smile around the school with a slow burning rage of fire.

The only thing that matters to them is being one of those 4 students to get the cape.

The students made their way to the auditorium where the results were going to announce , in the presence of their parents. Whispers have been roaming around for the potential people to get the cape. All the 7 selected students were seated separately back stage and can only meet the principle once before coming on the stage. Till that tie no one gets to know who is one f those 4 students.

Students started to settle at their places , not soon after a screeching sound came from the microphone flowed by principle's voice. Introducing the chief guests. Most of the students would have skipped through the introduction and to the point where the selected students were suppose to carry the legacies of Eden's Academy.

That part crawled through the time to the present , as the chief guards were guided to their places by Principle and the students were asked to stand and show their respect to the 4 legacies of the Eden's academy of excellence.

4 Legacies , 4 students and 4 capes.

A soft music started to play and fill the silence of auditorium with its rhythm followed by the choirs. All the students stood up on their places head bowed down as the drumbeat began.

The students came one by one carrying one of the four things wearing dark blur capes with golden lining , along with the logo of Eden's academy o excellence.

A brown torch was carried by Christina from senior high representing the ever burning desire of winning and achieving what you want first enlightened on the day of Eden's opening by no other than the grandfather of principle Vincent.

Followed by a small box of glass and wood shining bright with the star badge awarded to the first ever selected student of the academy carried by Kai.

Next came 2 students carrying a big tray filled with honor badges and trophies , carried by Grace and Tyler , head school boy also coming from the senior high.
