"I told you, you should have taken the first step. You have to take the initiative first, express your feelings to her. Don't keep waiting, especially brother Rei is handsome, must be a lot of people who like it. Now is not the time for women to wait for men to express their feelings! And look now, since I don't want to listen to my advice, you're gonna have to get stuck with Fandy who's got incredible possessiveness."
"Shut up, Gloria! Don't make me mad!" snapped Lusia annoyed. Gloria jerks at it. "I don't want to talk about it!"
"Ck, you don't want to listen to my advice. Besides, now I understand why Brother Rei doesn't like you and never even glanced at you at all. It's because of your grumpy nature and never listen to my advice, when I'm your best friend."
"As far as you are! I don't want to argue here. I'd better go see the principal to protest." Lucia breezed away from Gloria.
"Hey! You insane? You want to face the principal??" Gloria was stunned to hear the words of her best friend. Lucia did not heed his words and chose to keep going until his figure disappeared among the people there.
"It seemed like one of the bolts in his brain was starting to come off, he even desperately wanted to meet the principal to protest just because he wasn't placed in the same class as me. Oh, my God, I really don't think about it." Gloria memonologist. He shook his head slowly, before long his focus then turned to the paper in his grasp.
"After all if he moves to my classroom, who should switch places with him?" Gloria noticed the list of names written there. He looked up when he saw a name familiar to him.
"I.. This is, there's no way anyone I know, right?" Gloria brought the paper in her hand closer to her eyes and re-spelled every letter listed there.
"I.. this.." Gloria flashed a slow smile. "This is really him! I'd better shut up and not tell Lucia this. I'll let him move to my class. He would be very surprised once he found out. But.. shouldn't he be in second grade? What happened so much that he had to repeat? Ah, it's not important. The most important thing now is to keep this a secret from Lucia, and I wonder if she managed to move into my class?"
Lusia walked down the corridor towards the direction of the principal's room. One of the teachers who had just walked out of his room, suddenly stopped his steps when he thought the girl was lost.
"Hey, kid. Where are you going? This is not the right path to your classroom" he said.
"Sorry, sir. I wasn't looking for a classroom, I was about to meet the principal. There are a few things I should talk to him about."
"What's? You're not allowed to see the principal, he's busy. Besides, what are you meeting with him for, if you want to talk important, talk to your homeroom teacher. What class are you from?"
"It can't, sir. I really have to meet the principal."
"Can't! It's better now that you're back in class, it's time to get in!" His voice was firm, Lucia flinched.
"But, sir...I really have to meet him, has he arrived?"
