You were a new student at Horizon Academy, one of the most prestigious schools in the region. In your case, a hefty sum of money had been more than enough to convince the principal to admit you, even without the impeccable academic record many of your peers had worked their entire lives to build. The campus was grand, with towering buildings covered in ivy and manicured gardens that seemed to stretch for miles. The marble floors gleamed beneath your shoes as you were led through the main hall, the sound of your footsteps echoing in the vast space.
After the tour, you were shown to your dorm—a simple yet comfortable room that you would now call home. Though, you couldn't help but notice the other side of the dorm, with the name 'Choso' on the side.
Finally, your guide led you to your classroom, your heart pounding harder with every step you took down the seemingly endless corridors.
Upon reaching the classroom door, the teacher stood waiting with a warm smile, clearly informed of your arrival. His kind eyes welcomed you in, making the nerves that had been buzzing inside you simmer down slightly. As you stepped into the room, your hands gripped the straps of your backpack, hoping to make a good first impression.
"Class, we have a new student today," the teacher announced, his voice clear and authoritative yet gentle. "Please be respectful."
The room fell into a hushed silence, all eyes on you. Some students whispered to each other, while others just stared, sizing you up, but you tried not to let the attention get to you. Among the students was a boy sitting near the window—his posture relaxed but distant. His dark hair was tied up in two spiky buns, and his pale complexion contrasted sharply with his all-black uniform. He didn’t even glance in your direction, seemingly lost in thought as he gazed out the window.
