Chapter 41 - Saturday

Today is Saturday. Even though today is Selina's scheduled day off, but unofficially that day is the day the clubs do their activities. On this day, Selina with her roommates - Alexa, Emma, and Emily - intend to visit the clubs at the Seraphium Royal Academy.

"Come on, Alex! A little faster will you. You take a long time to prepare yourself," said Emily, who was already impatient because of Alexa who was taking too long.

"Yes, yes... Wait a bit longer!" replied Alexa, who was hurriedly fixing her hair ties.

"Let me tie it up," said Emma, who then walked behind Alexa and then took a hair ribbon from Alexa's hand.

"Thanks, Emma," said Alexa who then turned back towards the mirror in front of her.

"You're welcome," Emma said with a smile.

Selina, who had finished preparing, had also been waiting for Alexa to finish preparing herself. She sat on her bed while shaking her legs up and down consecutively.

"Lina, can Ciel also come to see the clubs at Seraphium Royal Academy?" Ciel asked.

"Hmm... But it looks like it will be full of people because today is the first day of the clubs opening at the start of the new school year. I'm afraid you will be squashed later in your current size. What if Ciel just waits in familiar's space?"

"What if Ciel changes to Ciel's original size?"

"I'm afraid we'll get yelled at for blocking the way," Selina persuaded Ciel.

Although Ciel can change to his original size which is as big as a horse on earth, Selina doesn't want new problems to emerge because Ciel's true form is blocking the way.

"Hmmm... Then Ciel will wait in familiar's space like Lina said," Ciel said. His face looked sad with his ears dropped.

"Good boy! Sorry, Ciel… Later I will buy Ciel vatómouro ice cream as a gift because Ciel has become a good boy. How is it, Ciel wants it or not?" Selina said while stroking Ciel's head.

Vatómouro is the name of small red fruit in Gaia. Vatómouro has a fresh sweetness to them, but their slightly bitter taste makes their sweetness more delicate.

"Ice cream? What is ice cream?" Ciel asked, his sky-blue eyes sparkling at Selina's bribe.

"Ice cream is a dessert that tastes sweet and cold in the mouth. It's really good," answered Selina.

"Alexa... Alexa... Is ice cream that good?" Ciel asked Alexa who was brushing her hair.

Alexa nodded her head and said, "Yes, it's delicious. It is sweet and has a smooth texture."

"Un... Un... Ciel wants ice cream. Lina promises to buy Ciel ice cream, right?" Asked Ciel, who turned back to Selina.

"Yes, I promise you." Selina smiled.

"Okay, Ciel will be waiting in familiar's space!" Ciel exclaimed happily, jumping on Selina's bed.

"Thank you, Ciel. Gnostós chóros."

*Puff*

With the appearance of white smoke, Ciel disappeared and entered Selina's familiar space.

"Ahahaha... I didn't know you had to persuade Ciel with ice cream so that he would enter the familiar's space," Emma said.

"Yes, Ciel is like a child because he is young and our relationship is more like a big sister and little brother than master and familiar. But never mind, I'm the youngest at my house, so I like getting a younger brother," Selina explained.

Now Selina with Alexa, Emma, and Emily are walking towards the South Building where the club room is located. Right in front of the South Building, they met with Jackson and Christian. Like Selina and her roommates, Jackson and Christian also wear casual clothes.

"Hm? Alexa, do you want to go to the South Building too?" Jackson asked, his hands folded behind his head. His purple hair looks a bit messy and is tied improperly on the back.

"Yes. We want to see the clubs. If there is one that we like, we intend to join," said Alexa answering Jackson's question.

"Hmm… Looks like we have the same intention," Jackson said, followed by a nod from Christian.

"Who are they?" Jackson asked again. His pumpkin-orange eyes looked at Emma and Emily.

"This is Emma and Emily, my and Selina's roommates in the Undine dorm. Let me introduce them, the one wearing the green ribbon headband is Emma Addy Brown and the one whose hair is tied to a ponytail is Emily Anna Brown."

"Hi!" said Emily, waving her right hand while Emma just nodded her head while smiling at Jackson and Christian.

"Emma, ​​Emily, the person who has purple hair is Jackson Ragurd and the one with black hair next to him is Christian Prasinos Grecass. They are Class 1's members just like me and Selina," said Alexa introducing Jackson and Christian.

"Sup!" Jackson raised his right hand to give a brief wave.

"Hello," Christian smiled at Emma and Emily. His milk-chocolate candy-colored eyes sparkled in the sun.

"...!" Emily's cheeks turned red after seeing Christian's smile.

"Are you okay? Your face is red, do you have a fever?" Christian asked Emily.

"I... I'm fine. Ju-Just feeling hot," Emily answered stammering with flushed cheeks.

"Do you feel hot in autumn?" Christian asked with a look of disbelief.

"Heeeh..." Jackson grinned like a cat that managed to steal fish.

"Ju-Just a little!" Emily answered Christian's question. Her face turned even redder after realizing what excuse she had just made.

"…Okay then," Christian shrugged his shoulders resignedly.

"Then let's go to the South Building," Selina said, changing the subject. She intends to save Emily from her embarrassment.

"Thanks…," whispered Emily to Selina.

Selina just winked in response and smiled.

"Wait a minute, we are still waiting for Arthur and Daniel." Jackson stopped Selina, Alexa, Emma, and Emily who were preparing to enter the South Building.

"Rosenfeld and Daniel? Ugh! Why do I have to meet Rosenfeld even on Saturday?" Selina grumbled. Her face turned sour immediately.

"Sorry if I disturbed your pleasant Saturday," Arthur whispered suddenly from behind Selina's ear.

Selina, who was unaware of Arthur's presence behind her because she was so focused on grumbling, screamed in surprise.

"Rosenfeld?! You surprised me. You're lucky I didn't reflexively kick you."
