.

I woke up one morning, the sun glinting gently through the curtains and the morning air filling the room with its gentle scent. I stretched, feeling refreshed and ready for the day ahead. As I got out of bed, I could hear the sounds of my roommate Clyde moving around in the room. We both headed out into the hallway and started walking toward our class together.I looked up, surprised to see Reiji. "Hey you!”and we all looked up to see a girl with a pristine white uniform

"Hey isn't that Reijimin?""

She looks great as usual... "

"Girls began to gossip nearby, and I turned my attention to their conversation "What's going on??"

The entire classroom has been surrounded by whispers as Reijimin walked towards me

All eyes are on the Student Council President as she walks into our classroom.

“A true icon !”

"I wonder if she's looking for someone in particular" Claide said

Whatever the reason, they all agree that she's an amazing example of what Saint Palantine is all about and they can't help but stare in admiration at her as she walks past.

It's no surprise that all of girls around are admiring her

"Vice president Reijimin yelling in the morning?..I wonder what happened

"It was her!from yesterday !Am I just imagining things?""

I stared carefully at the Girl who just came in"Yeah look like she WAS Reiji

She's so cool isn't she"

She's probably going to tell me off again maybe can sneak pass her

"..'"

However things didn't go well

Reijimin was already walking right in my direction

The surrounding falls silent in admiration, with long silver braided hair and a long pristine white uniform. It's like she's stepped out of a fairy tale, she’s absolutely stunning

She stop her track as soon as she reach into my desk, standing up straight as she look down on me with a not so in good mood look

I thought about yesterday and unknowingly lowered my head

*Layla, I’ve come to escort you"

Huh?me?""

"Yes you “she looks irritated "youre coming with me"she added and my jaw dropped

At a glance,from a far she had looked very princely and noble despite her long hair but.....Up close I could see her eyes were hostile

"She's really angry?""

Wait wait Layla what's going on here? Clyde asked confusedly

"Don't ask me I have no idea?"

"Could you hurry up?we need to go"Reijimin said as she fixed the frame of her glasses

"Hey you can't just order me around "I said as I stood up my chair trying to keep my cool

"As the supreme student government vice president it's my job to show the "provisional student" around the school campus"she yelled

But....you really don't have —""

"NOW"she cut me of, feeling like her words were knives ,I give her a panicked nod

I feel like I'm getting bullied

She let out a heavy sigh as she flashed forced smile "I'll treat you nicely"she said as she gently offered her hands to me

I could help but to blush of embarassement and annoyance

She's so much like a prince!"Claide said as she started at Reijimin

Why does she keep acting like that!is she narcissist or mischochist or something ?

"If you agree to come with me I'll take you to whatever place you like.youre exempted to your class as well until the end of the day"

"Um..."I stared at her not knowing what to do

She does look sincere...uhm let's see..

Um".

Not waiting for my to respond she gently grabbed my hands and we stared walking away and head to the door

"Wait"

"Come with me"

Claide reach me out but I smiled at her saying I'll be okay

"Alright take care.." Claide saw me off with a face of worry,

I went after Reijimin

"Where are we going?""

"If you keep quiet and come with me you'll see"

Eventually, Reijimin stopped before a Run with double door

Why is your face so drawn?

Are you that scared of me?"she asked as we both entered the room

"No never haha"I said as I fixed my glasses As I watched her takes a bunch of papers, which she then hands over to me as if it's the most casual thing in the world.

I was taken aback by this but took the paper she handed me and inspected it carefully before looking back up at her, waiting for an explanation.

"This is your schedule, I refixed it," she said as she handed me a blue paper with my schedule written down it on it.

"But how?" I asked. "The head mistress talked to me about this, and asked me to look after you," she said.

“That’s why you and I are in the same class”

I was surprised by the sudden change in my schedule, but I took the papers she handed me and looked at them carefully.

“thank-“

"Bring these documents to the library you haven't gone there yet right?

Did she just cut me off?

She said when a clam voice as she gives me a slight smile. But the expression in her eyes seems to hint at something far more sinister. I have a bad feeling about this

"I haven't but—"

"Thank you" Not even caring about my answer. She handed me a bunch of documents

"Just go up these stairs turn right and walk straight ahead. Even the greatest fool can easily find it"

"You must hurry"

"Huh wait"

"What you look like you have something to complain about?"

"That's"

"I assume you know that I'm the vice president right"

"So what do you think? Am I going to say you bit me in my face if you don't complete this task? “She said and smiled at me confidently “Or am I going to let you go nicely"

"Um"I whispered as I stared the bunch documents in my hands

Is she blackmailing me? “I’ll....Being them to the library"

Good answer “she said with a sinister smile on his face

Grrr!!!"I'm super sure she will send me back to my school of I don't do this"

"I'm counting on you, Miss Jin"

"She works people too hard! She’s being unreasonable! I don't get what her motives behind her actions!

She barely even know me yet she treated me this way!

she's not making any sense “Frequently demeans intimidates bullies! Lying and belittle others!"I yelled at her

She just wink and turn her back on me and started walking away

As I was examining the paper, a boy walked pass me

"Close..." I heard a soft whisper and before I knew it….Everything was in slow motion...". I glanced towards him and he looked back at me, our eyes locking.

I heard a familiar voice and at the same time the sweet scent of lavender surrounded me as he was walking towards me

That scent.....

It was him....

The guy from the lake

My face lit as soon as I confirmed it was him. He look different today....

To my surprise he just walked straight and passed me.I immediately turned at him trying to call him

"wait aza—" before I could finished my words he just walked pass through me as if I'm just a wind

I can't help but feel slighted and it's hard not to take it personally.

Being ignored by someone you thought you could be friends with ....

I must be mistaken. Maybe it wasn't him

"Maybe it wasn't Azazel," I whispers to myself, trying to convince myself that I was mistaken.

"I'll return the emblem to Azazel when I see him "But I can't help but wonder about what Claide had said to me earlier

"Emblems are pride of our school and it would be a disgrace for someone having an emblem that's been banned long time ago so it’s not possible for someone to have it...
