12 CHAPTER 12: Busy, BUsy, BU___SY!!! (1/2)
TWO MONTHS LATER
The entire college students are trying to finish loads of work from all their subjects, now that all their instructors and professors are back from their extended vacations. It has been a week after the school started and still a lot to do. Ritz and Rei were not exempted on this problem, both are on their own separate classes every morning since they are in different department. Rei went to her fundamental class for her medical course and Ritz to her Architectural design 1 for the 1st semester. Of course, there is nothing new regarding making reports and home works on the first day of class until now, that is the fun of a systematic education.
Good thing the lunch break came and both friends went to the canteen as their usual routine that started months ago, and what is surprising Shana left them for a month now, except that this time Jade and Len joined them.
”So... do the two of you have anything to do on Sunday?” Jade asked.
”Yes, It has been two months since the last time I went home to visit and go to church but I'll be free by 4 pm. That is for me, I'm not sure with Ritz. Why you asked?” Rei answered.
”Well, if you two do not mind going out and see the town, here. We are actually inviting you both, maybe after 4 pm once your back?” Jade asked them.
”Sure, why not. I have not seen the entire island after the school tour anyway.” Rei answered back.
”That is great, you are coming too Ritz.” Jade said.
”Okey, I'll come. Thank you for asking me, I thought you two were just asking Rei.” Ritz answered and look at Rei while grinning. Both men just chuckled and they all started eating, while someone begins to complain regarding their subjects. After few minutes Jade remembered the promise to update them on the history of the school.
”Like what I have said before, there are a lot of written records where the Origin or the roots of the Island and those who has it are the Elders who are still alive. Now, what the library has, are just the basic and the only recorded events that the councils allow for the students to now. While the rest you will learn once you all took your oath. If you can befriend one resident of this Island you might learn more, they usually tell their tale to their own kind alone. Now let us go to the beginning how this Island was discovered, unless of course, they already told you.” Jade said
”To tell the truth, they just told us who founded it and how the residents struggle to keep it hidden, but how it was discovered is questionable even to me.” Len answered.
”Mr. William Bien was a researcher for a paranormal activities around the Bermuda Triangle, in particular. He work at Audessius Essai University and he has a student needing extra grade to pass. After graduation he took that student as his personal assistant and after more than a year of waiting, both had an accident and found their way to this Island. Both Mr. Bien and her lady assistant were helped by the locals. They stayed here for months to recuperate and the rest you now know from the professor.” Jade ended before the bell rang for the afternoon sessions.
Rei said her good bye and went to her Microbiology class, Ritz on her Architectural communication 1, and Len to his Introduction on criminal justice. That afternoon was gloomy and a storm might be coming, it made most the students mood turn to worst. An exemption to Rei, she likes the rainy seasons more than summer.
In Rei's class, after 5 minutes the instructor entered and greeted them. Rei was happy to see her again, since for the past two months it was a different teacher who handled them.
”We start with me asking you, What you have learned until now in microbiology?” Everyone started raising and talking at the same time.
”Ms. Black, please state what do you remember on this branch of science?” the professor asked.
