"Felicia, thank you for your hard work. You may finish up with your work." The principal kindly told Felicia to leave. Doing so, Felicia went out of the door and left.
With Felicia leaving, the principal turned her face towards us. Her happy-going attitude had disappeared, and she started to talk.
"I thank you all for attending this academy as guests. Your schedules are in these papers. There is a map within the pile and keys for your house. You will be grouped by your years and will be living together. Please take them before you leave." She then looked at her paper and stopped paying attention to us.
Her voice showed a bit of disdain toward us. Even if she disliked us, she didn't show it to us upfront. What was the point of her signing the alliance if she didn't like us?
Taking our items begrudgingly, we left the office, leaving the school building. The seniors were venting their emotions to each other.
"What with her attitude? That bitch had made an alliance with us and couldn't even bother to help. This is why beasts like them are hated." They ranted their frustrations to the sky.
Since we had things to do, I couldn't be bothered to go near them. I checked on the map. The house we had gotten was on the opposite side of the remaining three groups.
Our house was located on the top of academy city. At least there were many facilities near our location. Olivia and I didn't have to go far to the academy. The other three were pretty unlucky with their location.
"Olivia, let's go to our house and pack our things." We didn't have all day to see how our seniors were doing, leaving the seniors told us to wait.
"Where are you both going?" A senior genuinely questioned us about what our plans were.
"We're going to our house for a checking." There wasn't a need for us to go as a group. In fact, I think our grouping could make the situation worst.
The principal already had shown her dislike toward us. If we stayed together for three months, they would suspect we would do something.
I also didn't plan to get along with them. I had established enough connections needed as a student. If I did, the chances that I would be suspected as a male would be much higher, and it was the last thing I needed.
"Is that so? As a senior in our school, let me give you a tip. Don't cause any trouble. You saw how the principal acted. Our position here is an all-time low, so do your best not to attract any attention." I didn't need that tip. I could control my emotions myself. Besides, they seem like they should be worried about themselves.
"Thank you for your wise words." Sarcastically saying those words, I left with Olivia. Looking at the map we were given, we were told that a path was leading to our house.
Walking to our destination, a stone road walk that would act as a guide appeared. Following the road, we arrived at our new house and passed many stores along the way. We will check them out when the time is right.
In front of us was our new house. I thought the house we would be given would be in bad condition. The house we got was a larger one than the one where we lived. It was made out of magic stone, unlike the one where I lived, which was made of wood.
Olivia and I walked into the house, checking out our living space. The house was cozy. I tried to sense every corner of our house, checking if any audio or anything was recording our movements.
I may sound extremely paranoid, but considering how we're not liked by the higher-ups of Avaris, there is no knowing what they would do.
It had taken me hours to search around the house, but nothing had come up. Maybe I was too paranoid, but it was better to be safe than sorry.
Going to a room I had picked, I had to unpack everything I had in my storage space into this room. Olivia then came to my room and checked out my progress. She had finished packing everything while I was checking the whole house.
"Charlie, let's eat dinner. You can pack your things later. Dinner is more important," Olivia called out to me. It was dinner. I then checked on the window in my room. The sun was setting down. I had wasted so much time and hadn't finished unpacking everyone.
Going to our dining room, it was pretty broad. In fact, our table had twelve seats too big, and it was hard to eat with Olivia sitting like this.
The both of us were sitting side by side at this large table. It was pretty uncomfortable sitting beside someone who I was talking to.
"Olivia, let's buy a smaller table after," Olivia nodded her head and agreed with my decision. I liked it better if we sat face by face.
"Olivia, what do you think about our stay?" Except for the place we will be living in, I would say that our recent experience in this country was terrible, and I hope this exchange will be over soon.
She had a wry smile when I asked such a question. "I don't think the principal liked us. I hope that it was only her that acted like that. Felicia was nice, so I'm hoping it was just the principal who would act like that."
Olivia gave me a positive outlook on the situation. I hope that she was right about her thoughts. Otherwise, it would be a pain in the butt if someone were to gun at us from the start.
After finishing my dinner, I returned to my room. I unpacked everything, the class would start tomorrow, and I couldn't afford to be late. Unlike Saint Maria, attending classes was unnecessary if you bring results, but here we're for an exchange program.
