___
At the right moment, Avy woke up and took off the headphones that she's wearing. She pulled back the curtain covering the window of the bus that she was riding in and stared at the view outside.
She sighed. Enormous trees and dark road, that's the only thing she can see. Nothing interesting. In short, boring. But, this also means she's getting close to her wanted destination. To the forest.
She waited for a while before hitting off the buzzer situated right next to her shoulders. This will serve as the signal that the driver needs to stop because she's about to get off.
When her black boots touched the ground, she knew that this will be the start.
This will be the mark for her fresh beginning. Another chapter of her high school life in a new school. A new school that she only knew little information about.
She got herself ready. She tied the long strands of her black and straight hair, tightened the strap of the backpack she was carrying, stretched her body and legs on the side of the road where she got off the bus earlier, picked up the phone, and opened the map that would take her to the exact place she ought to go. And lastly, take a deep breath.
Just like what she usually does, she started to convince herself before stepping into the scary and dark forest in front of her. This is it! Time to do forest adventures, baby!
? ? ?
As if sensing that a new student wants to go inside, the enormous black gates of Blackwood High suddenly opened wide for Avy.
Automatic? She curiously and humorously asked herself as she slowly stepped inside. When she finally got her feet on the grounds of the school, her eyes widened as she looked and scanned around the place.
Black walls of all the buildings一from the school building itself up to the two buildings on either side of it which she now thinks are the dorms.
There is also a black fountain (its flowing waters are also in the shade of black) situated in the middle of the school grounds. So when you enter, this is the first thing you will see which will quickly put you in the chair of amazement. On the remaining sides, black trees are planted. There are also benches (which are obviously black as well).
When she looked down on her toes and saw the grass ground, she was even more surprised. Because its color was also black!
Wow, it's not too obvious that their favorite color is black. She sarcastically monologues to herself.
She stared at the whole place in awe. She couldn't believe it. It seems like she teleported back in time or she's watching those old shows that are almost exclusively black and white. But in this case, you wouldn't see white. It's all black and dark. Even a slight shade of white is not visible.
Anyways, what do I care? Maybe the owner just loves black so much to the extent that this school was followed and inspired to be all black theme too. Avy ignoringly mumbled to herself. Actually, this is alright with her. 'Cause, she also loves the black color too.
While she continued to scan the surroundings, someone suddenly spoke behind her ear.
"Finding your way, Young lady?"
She nervously faced the person who's responsible behind the terrifying voice that sent goosebumps to her system, and there she found out that it was a beautiful old woman wearing a long and rich silk-coated black dress.
She thinks the lady was in her mid-40's. But even though she was old, her beautiful, white, and smooth complexion is still visible because of her classy clothes. The lady also paired her dress style with a meracuriously black lipstick and black eyeshadow that matches her raven-black-colored eyes and hair.
Her aura screams the signs of being sophisticated and at the same time being intimidating.
Well, she hates to admit but...
She was scary too.
Her observation and paranoia abruptly came to pause when the woman spoke again, "I supposed you're, Ms. Avy Demascenia?" Without hesitation, she answered her with a stern nod.
"Perfect. Well, before I forgot. I'm Madame Beverlyn Celestia. Students always call me Madame Evee. So, you can call me that too. I'm the Vice President of Blackwood High. Nice to meet you, darling." The lady warmly introduced herself to her. But even though she smiled sweetly and everything, Avy was still restless. Her inner self is sensing that there's something wrong with the smiles of the woman.
That there's something going on with the gaze of the lady towards her. It's as if she's rejoicing yet scaring, threatens, and warning her about something.
Despite her curiosity at the smiles of the woman who introduced herself as the Vice President of BWH, as a sign of politeness, even though it's not her thing to be polite and such, she still greeted her back.
"Uh, yeah? Nice to meet you too?"
Her back-greetings to the woman are exchanged by another smile. But, this time she can hear the lady's small stifle chuckles between her intimidating grins.
"By the way, I've been really waiting for your arrival. Come, follow me."
And she did follow the lady. Avy thought, maybe they're going in the office and she will be given his own identification card or the principal will interview her. Well, that's always the basic scenario when a student still transfers in the middle of the school year.
As Avy continued to follow Madame Evee, she couldn't help but notice the student's gazes at her.
Like the school, their faces are also dark. It's as if they're throwing daggers at her. Their gazes look intense, obviously saying that they don't like what they are seeing. That they don't like her. That she is not even welcome in this school.
She automatically frowned.
What's wrong with these people? Why do they look like that? Tsk. I hate their gazes at me, to the extent that I can pull their eyes out in annoyance.
As much as she wanted to scream those words to them and pull their eyes out, she didn't. She just harbored her curiosity and annoyance that was building in her system.
Of course, that's the right thing to do. She just moved to this school. She can't just shout at the students here. She doesn't know them yet. Also, they don't know her too. They're complete strangers as of this moment so, she can't fight with them like what she does in her former school back then.
"Don't mind them."
She immediately turned her attention to Madame Evee, "Huh?"
"The students. My students. That later on, will be your schoolmates. Don't mind them. Just ignore their weird stares towards you. They're just acting like that 'cause they aren't used to seeing a transferee entering the premises of BWH again after so many years. They must be surprised. Please, just disregard them, darling."
"Ah... yeah, sure." Though confused, annoyed, and bewildered, she still managed to answer her confidently. Madame Evee turns her back from her to open a black door. And as of the looks of it, in addition to the golden words engraved through its wooden frame, this must be the VP's Office. The Vice President entered without hesitation, so she imitated as well.
