_28_ Third Person's POV
The Frostwood Academy looked different in its festivity. Different booths, stalls, and games are prepared by the students.
Some students are currently giving fliers at the front gate but the moment a student saw the convoy, the students cleared the way and built a straight line on the side of the way.
"OHAYO GOZAIMASU!" they all greeted and bowed lightly when the three went out of the limousine. All of them are wearing a cold façade.
The student council of Frostwood Academy walked and bowed in front of Lavalee, Jace and Ares.
The three are wearing black masks to conceal their identity since Lavalee doesn't want anyone to know who she is as she studies.
"Ohayogozaimasu," They said in sync and bowed
"Onajiku," Lavalee replied coldly, her auburn eyes glistening in the light of the sun
"We are the Supreme Student Council, I am Jester Collins, the President." The boy with a playful smile said
"Ohayogozaimasu, I am Alkia Haiden, the vice president." The girl with a warm smile plastered on her face said
"Hello, I am Althea Frescobaldi, the secretary," the girl with eyeglasses said formally
"I'm Franco Lim, the SSC treasurer," Franco said with a smirk
"My name is Athena Frescobaldi, the auditor," the girl with a crown hairpin said
"I am Phoenix Alisha Haiden, the peacekeeper," The calm-looking girl introduced
"I am Alexei Hiroshi, the Public Information Officer," The guy with brown hair said
"I am Zhyrene Alonzo, the representative of the College Department," Zhyrene said with a smile but frowned when she looked at Ares
"I am Neider King, Highschool Department Representative." The only boy wearing the high school uniform said
"This way, milady, monsieur," the president said, and lead the three inside the huge building made of glass.
At first glance, it looks like a company made of glass but in reality, it is a building for Business Management students.
The same kind of building is used by the Med Students, the difference is that the glasses are tinted dark green, like those in hospitals.
"The facilities are well kept." Lavalee complimented while looking at the hallways.
"Thank you, milady," the secretary said
"How do you maintain it?" Jace asked
"Every Saturday and Sunday janitors are here cleaning and maintaining the school the whole day, students are not allowed to enter the premises during those days." The P.I.O. said
"How about during school days?" Ares queried
"We observe cleanliness at all times. Loitering and throwing garbage in places without garbage bins are not allowed, rule breakers are sent to detention and would be charged with a deduction on their final grades and must pay 100 pesos as a fine." Zhyrene replied
Lavalee smirked when she heard the punishment.
'That was just a joke. Nii-sama took it literally.' Lavalee thought
The supreme student council toured Lavalee, Jace, and Ares but of course, they really didn't need to because Lavalee and Ares have already been there.
"Would you like to eat?" Alkia asked when they're in the School Directress' office.
They're waiting for the School Directress to arrive.
"What do you offer?" Ares asked them back
Zhyrene raised her brow at Ares and rolled her eyes.
Lavalee saw that which made her chuckle.
"Archangel, don't pretend as if you haven't been here, will you?" Lavalee told Ares and tapped his shoulder
"Thank you for the offer, but we can handle ourselves," Lavalee said and smiled
"We shall take our leave, mlady, monsieur," Jester said and they bowed
"Can I have a word with you, Zhyrene?" Ares said when the SSC members we're about to leave
'The fool couldn't stand it.' Lavalee smirked when she saw that Zhyrene's shoulders fell
"What do you need?" Zhyrene asked the moment they were left alone
"You! You're pretentious!" Ares acted like he's hurt after removing his mask.
"Are you crazy?" Zhyrene asked sarcastically
"Forgive us for not putting him in the Mental Institution, Zhy," Lavalee said and removed her mask, Jace did the same.
"Why is that fool here, Lav? Brother Frost isn't there?" Zhyrene said and rolled her eyes at Ares
"Nii-sama's busy, I was actually the only one he sent," Lavalee said and smiled
"Why is that idiot with you then?" Zhyrene asked while pointing at Ares
"He's Nii-sama's best friend and according to him, Nii-sama is flirting in his office so he'll visit me." Lavalee replied
"Lav, how did he become Kuya Frost's best friend again? I can't see how they became best friends, he's crazy while Kuya Frost is serious. " Zhyrene said
"You should go now, Zhy, you should enjoy the foundation week," Lavalee said
"Aren't Jess, Chelsea, or Irene coming?" Zhyrene asked
"Don't you love me anymore? Why are you looking for them?" Ares asked dramatically
"Try to get missing, I might look for you," Zhyrene replied sarcastically
"Is he crazy?" Jace whispered to Lavalee
"Nope, just head over heels," Lavalee whispered back
"Are you serious? I'm being turned down here and you're flirting." Ares said and acted sulking
"Boyfriend?" Zhyrene asked Lavalee
"No," Lavalee replied
"I will go ahead. I promised the A's I'd be coming with them to enjoy the Foundation week. " Zhyrene said and hugged Lavalee
She rolled her eyes at Ares before leaving
"Why is she mad at me?" Ares asked
"What did you do?" Jace asked him back
"I just posted that I love her, what's the problem?" Ares replied
"Stupid move, bro," Lavalee said and smacked Ares on the head
"Why?" Jace asked Lavalee
"Zhyrene's parents are strict, Ares. You've seen how Zhyrene's brother, Azura, protects her." Lavalee said and face palmed
"That Azura! That's Enyalius's boyfriend!" Ares said
"Oh man, you can't end up together then. Azura will marry Yali first and you can't marry Zhyrene." Lavalee said and laughed
The school directress arrived and smiled when she saw them.
Ares and Jace excused themselves to give Lavalee and her aunt some privacy.
"Lavalee, I guess Frost finally allowed you to help." She said and sat on her chair.
"Of course, imo. Nii-sama's still in a business meeting." Lavalee replied and sat on the chair in front of her aunt's table
"You know, I was wondering who would be this school's next director. I can't be this school's directress forever and I don't want to ask Frost because he'd probably overthink." Abbigail Ayazaki Fuentabella said with a hint of worry on her face
"I can handle it, imo, for now, until well, Nii-sama finds a wife who can handle it along with him." Lavalee said and her aunt smiled
"I know you will, but there's also a plan about Seasonial Academy sent by Freia and Icey and Dark Light Academy from Fuego, how are you going to handle all of those?" she asked Lavalee and the latter smiled
"I can do it, imo. Don't worry, I'll ask for your help when I can't manage anymore." Lavalee replied
"I know that Lavalee, but I don't get your brother's logic at all. Why does he want that every branch of Frostwood Academy would be managed by somebody else?" Mrs. Fuentabella said
"I'll convince Nii-sama. I'm pretty sure he'd take a look at it." Lavalee said and the door opened
"Lavalee," Lavalee stood up and bowed when she saw her uncle.
"Uncle," Lavalee replied
"I'm going now, Lavalee. Can you manage here on your own?" Mrs. Fuentabella said
"I can manage, imo, uncle. Enjoy your date," Lavalee replied and her aunt hugged and kissed her forehead before leaving her.
"What will we be doing here?" Ares asked when they entered the office
"I don't know, maybe we'll just have to wait? Nii-sama didn't tell me anything about the next thing to do after meeting with the school directress." Lavalee replied and sat on the couch
"Let's go, let's just enjoy the stalls," Ares suggested
"We can't, they'll recognize us," Lavalee said and stood up.
The festivity can be watched from where she is standing.
Ares frowned and sat on the couch while Jace remained standing beside the couch.
"I want to join those games," Lavalee said while looking at the stall with a shooting range from the glass window.
"Then join," Jace said while looking intently at Lavalee. Lavalee looked at him like he grew another head
"Didn't you hear what I've just said? I said – Change your clothes." Jace cut what Lavalee was saying
"He has a point, Lav, we can join if we change our clothes because no one will recognize us, everyone is in civilian uniform, though they're wearing their Identification cards. Besides, we were wearing our masks earlier." Ares agreed
"We don't have any extra clothes." Lavalee pointed out
"Hey there!" Zhyrene came in with a raised brow
"Hi!" Athena, Alkia, and Althea then arrived with Franco and Jester behind them
"Why are the members of Frostwood Academy Supreme Student Council here?" Lavalee asked them and sat on the couch
"You want to join the fun, don't pretend like you don't, Lav," Franco said and pointed at Ares and Lavalee
