At the gymnasium,
“Students, Kindly go to your groups, Flora students here on the left side Fleur students at the right.” Ms. Graciella,the chairwoman,said on stage.
“Phew! I thought we couldn’t get here on time!” Allyson said exhausted from running.
“That doesn’t matter.At least we got here.” Samantha answered.
“Quit it! Listen!” Alexandra said while pointing to the chairwoman making a quick announcement.
“Students, as we all know this academy is very strict especially when it comes to the privacy of both dormitories.Fleur and Flora students can only pass through the neighboring dorm’s territory by means of a valid reason,such as,activity purposes and permission from the teachers-in-charge.Other reasons will be sent to the student council for approval.” Ms.Graciella said with a straight face.
“Seriously? We can’t visit the Fleur dorm without permission?” Alexandra whined.
“Yeah! Isn’t it great? We can’t see that annoying guy who had hurt you earlier!” Samantha said.
“Well…I guess…but he didn’t even hurt me…” Alexandra answered disappointedly.
“Hey,Alex,are you okay? You seem down.”Allyson said with a worried expression.
“W-What?!No,I’m fine.no need to worry.” Alexandra answered as she shook her head as a reply.
“Well if you say so.” Allyson said.
“Why of all rules visiting is the most forbidden. I hate this school.” Alexandra said in her mind.
Meanwhile at the Fleur’s group.
“And another thing.If one is caught exploring their neighboring dorm without permission will be expelled….” Ms. Graciella said.
Ms. Graciella continued the general orientation,with explaining the school’s rules,regulations,curriculum and many others.
“Hey,Leo,You got a problem? You seem sick.” Anthony asked while looking at his friend speechless after hearing Ms. Graciella’s words.
“No,It’s just….I-I….” Leonardo said, stuttering every word he said.
“Leo, you have issues. Is this about some girl again?” Jonathan said with an annoyed face.
“I-I…..Forget it. I’m okay…really…See? I’m perfectly fine.” Leonardo said with a seemingly fake smile.
Then Ms. Graciella stopped her speech.
“Okay students,kindly go to your dorms now.” Ms. Graciella said.
“Well look at that,finished already.” Leonardo said cheerfully.
“Oh, Wait!” Ms. Graciella exclaimed.
“What is it now?” Anthony asked.
“Because of the strict policy about the dorm passing.the student council had given you guys a chance to explore your neighboring dorm once again.” Ms. Graciella informed while reading the letter from the student council.
“Pinch me,Am I Dreaming?” Alexandra said with her eyes simultaneously blinking.
“Did you just said something Alex?” Samantha asked.
“No,nevermind….” Alexandra answered with her face flushed again with a pinch of pink.
“Your acting strange,Alex.Are you sick or something?” Samantha questioned the blushing Alexandra.
“No,nothing’s wrong. I’m totally fine…Perfectly fine.” Alexandra said with a cheerful yet red-tinted face.
“Hey!Guys!Listen!” Allyson exclaimed as she poked the two of them.
Along with Ms.Graciella’s announcement came a very surprising task.
“Students,since it’s the first day of classes,the student council had paired each and every one of you. 1 Flora and 1 Fleur student for each pair.And kindly go to the bulletin board to find your partners.Remember, don’t remove your name tags.So,your partner wouldn’t have a hard time finding you.” Ms. Graciella informed.
All went to the bulletin board.
Bulletin Board:
FLEUR-FLORA:
Azura,Grecia – Veniz,Cedric
Geriona,Brianna – Hemlan,Rinelle
Lifera,Ezekiel – Leeron,Allexie
Enver,Jonathan –Overra,Allyson
Pearce,Anthony – Fah,Samantha
Rennigence,Leonardo – Glevarna,Alexandra
…
(And the list goes on)
Alexandra’s eyes widen.
Leonardo’s mouth went open.
“What?Seriously?!!” Both said simultaneously.
All the students look at them as they stared at each other. The room went silent.
“Pinch me,I’m Dreaming!”Alexandra said in her mind as she totally freaked out.
“This isn’t real…is it?” Leonardo said with his mind totally confused.
Then both looked away…
“It can’t be…” Both whispered simultaneously…again!
