Surprise

Max spent all his days studying at home with private teachers and ignoring all the bullying his sister did. He would have given up if he didn't have two secret guardian animals. They were asked by his real mother to take care of him but he didn't know that. Floating on his right side there is a frog and on his left side there is a floating Fennec fox. The animals were only seen and heard by him so when he talked back people would think he is crazy, which caused even more bullying. He didn't care though, he was used to it and it never crossed his mind to fight back. 

 Even with all the mental and physical abuse he was happy with his two magical friends, the frog and the fox. He liked to study, he would often go to the garden and care for his plants as well. Max was thankful for his life but he always desired to go school and he asked that every year on his birthday. His parents would always argue against that because they thought the school system would hold him down and the top school which he might have been allowed had a huge waiting list. He also didn't have a schedule or friends so he studying almost every hour of the day and when he did have a break he would take care of his plants. He didn't meet new people like his adoptive sister so he would also study during the weekends and for him that was normal.  He was, overall, extraordinary and his intelligence was incredibly superior.

 Today was Max's seventeen birthday and his uncle had a very special surprise prepared. 

''Max, come here. I have a surprise and if you like it you can start tomorrow!'' babbled the uncle at the party.

''Surprise? What is it? And what do you mean that I can start tomorrow?'' asked Max clueless.

''School! I talked to my sis and she thinks it is a good experience as well! You could start tomorrow since everything is already arranged if you accept. I managed to get you spot since my childhood friend happened to be promoted to the chairman of the school'' answered the uncle.

''Indeed, me and your dad said yes since it might help you in the business as well, but I should warn you that we do not want you to have distracting relationships. School is for study reasons only, do you understand child?'' explained the mother politely but coldly. After hearing that, Max thanked the uncle and his parents then rushed to his rooms to get ready. He was so excited that he squeaked and jumped as soon as he got to his room. He couldn't sleep all night. Was it happiness or nervousness?
