Morning came fast for Oli and his mother. Ania was up first, making breakfast for the two of them.
Oli got up with excitement in his eyes and a fire in his belly. He was too anxious for school to begin; he had known about the curriculum and resources available to the school for some time now thanks to his occasional chats with Vloz. The day had finally come, and he didn't want to wait any longer.
Instinctively, Oli sat and ate his breakfast of Pebble hen eggs and a light salad. It was enjoyable but he was too focused on the day's future events to truly appreciate it. Ania followed his example and ate quickly so they could leave early for the Opening Ceremony.
The walk felt like it took forever for Oli, but Ania laughed at her son's anxiousness. "What's got you so worked up? You actually want to go to school?"
Oli chuckled, "I guess you could say that."
