Here I am standing in front of a big academy. It looks like a palace. Golden is the gate. Windows are like rainbows changing colors as time goes. So hypnotic.
It is truly a gift to be here.
It seems like it is made from magic. Or is it?
I entered the magnificent school and you can see that it is inspired by the Victorian era.
Since I'm new here, I have to go to the main office and meet the principal of this school.
They say she's very strict. Well, let's see.
As I entered the office, I was immediately greeted by a woman aged early 50s.
She looks like a decent old lady. She has emerald eyes and silky white hair wrapped in a bun. She has a lot of wrinkles but she still looks young, especially when she smiled to me and greeted me with a "hello." She seems to be nice.
"Good morning." I greeted her with a shy smile.
"Oh, Good morning! You must be Laramie Smithson?"
"Yes, I am."
"I am Victoria Grandsen, your principal, so here is your schedule and just wait here since I made someone your escort." She giggled. I wondered why.
Perhaps it's because of my "escort."
I waited for about 20 minutes at the waiting area near the office. I entered the office again and asked the principal.
"Lady Grandsen, is my escort often this late?"
Yes. We have to greet the elders "Lady and Mister" here.
"Oh, you're still here? He was never late! In fact this is his first time being late! Oh foolish silly boy. Don't worry. You won't be considered tardy. For now."
So my escort is a boy. No wonder.
Then I heard someone opened the door.
"I'm sorry for being late, Lady Grandsen." His voice was a thunder in a storm. Loud and clear. Perhaps dangerous.
"Why are you late?" Lady Grandsen asked the person behind me.
A few inches behind me.
"Running errands." I like that kind of answer. Straight to the point.
As I turned around, I found him fascinating.
Onyx eyes that seem endless. Face so defined and so beautiful. Skin so white like milk and lips so sexy when he smirked.
Wait. He smirked?
I would die in embarassment but sadly, I still can't. Even with the masterpiece right in front of me.
~~~Still short?
