SIRIUS-REBORN

CHAPTER THREE

I felt something wet on me and thought, "Pee, go away, I want to sleep more." Then it hit me—I was in school. I turned to my side and saw Adam with a girl and a boy. Suddenly, the boy turned to Adam and said, "She’s awake; take her to the Dean of Students." He left with the girl. His voice was authoritative, but my vision was still blurry, so I could only see the sides of them, which looked more attractive than Adam. Adam approached me and said, "You look like you’ve seen a ghost," as he tried to help me up. I asked, "What happened, Adam?" He replied, "You blacked out. I think you’re just really tired; you need to see the Dean before resting." He helped me to my feet and noticed my map. "No wonder you got lost; you’re holding the map upside down." "What?" I exclaimed. Adam took the map from me, fixed it, and said, "You need to be in the shade to read the names on the map." He handed it back and advised, "Stay in the shade if you want to look at your map for directions." I nodded, and he added, "In the meantime, let me walk you to the principal's office. Your hair is wet and losing color." I panicked, "Oh no, I only packed one hair dye! How did my hair get washed so easily?" We looked in the direction where I had passed out and saw urine on the ground, which almost made me sick, while Adam just laughed. "Come on, let me carry your box," he said. We walked in silence for about five minutes before I started seeing other students like me, and I laughed out loud, thinking, "Finally!" Everyone we passed stared at me, not Adam. I wondered who he was. I noticed a group of cheerleaders looking at me as if I had stolen their pom-poms, and I gulped as I caught up with Adam, who was ahead. "Adam, why are they staring at you like that? I would have thought it was me, but I’m new," I said. He shrugged, "I don’t know, maybe it’s your hair color." We stopped under a large tree, and Adam said, "Give me five minutes to take care of something, then I’ll take you to see the principal." We ended up sitting under the tree for over ten minutes, and after hearing the bell ring for a while, my stomach growled. "Pee, I’m hungry," I complained. Pee took off running toward a building and disappeared inside. "Not today, Pee," I sighed. I entered the building, and everyone stared at me. I felt embarrassed; it turned out to be the cafeteria.Hello everyone, I'm Star, and I'm searching for my poodle 🐩. While everyone else was preoccupied with their food, I let out a sigh. Suddenly, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see the most stunning girl looking at me, holding my poodle in her arms, who seemed to have a full stomach. She barked. "Oh, Pee, I'm so sorry you're going through this with me. I forgot to feed you," I said. I looked up again and thanked the girl for taking care of her, explaining that my poodle had been running off all day. "No problem, I'm Adriana, but you can call me Ana," she replied. "I'm Star," I said, and we shook hands, feeling an electric connection that made me dizzy. "Are you okay? Come sit with me," Ana offered. I took a seat at the table filled with food. "You can eat anything; I know you're hungry," Ana encouraged. I nodded and started eating. After I finished, I noticed Ana staring at me. "What?" I asked, surprised. "Is there something on my face?" Just then, a group of girls walked by, and the one who seemed to be the leader said, "Yes, you look like a loser," and they all laughed as they walked away. Ana looked upset. "Don't worry, I've been bullied my whole life; that doesn't bother me," I reassured her. Ana seemed surprised but quickly hid it. "So, Star, what are you majoring in?" she asked. I sighed, "I don't know yet, but I think I want to study Medicine." "Really?" a familiar voice startled me, causing me to knock over a cup of water. "Star, I've been looking everywhere for you. Be careful, love," Adam said. I tried to clean up the mess with my jacket. "Hey, Adam, do you know Star?" Ana asked. I looked at both of them. "Are you two twins?" I inquired. They both replied, "Nooooo." Then another voice chimed in, "They never agree; they are twins," from an unknown guy. "I'm Jeremiah Spark, but you can call me Jeremy; it's easier," he introduced himself. "Nice to meet you, Jeremy. I'm Star," I said, extending my hand. Instead of shaking it, he took my hand and kissed it, making me blush again. "Let me see your slip," Ana said. Unsure which one she meant, I handed her everything. I glanced down at Pee, who was sleeping peacefully. "You don't have a slip. Where are you supposed to stay? Let's go see the Dean's secretary; the Dean is out on business," Ana said. "Thank you so much. Finally, someone is taking me to the principal's office," I replied, looking at Adam, who just shrugged and said, "I went to check on Darren." My curiosity piqued. "Who is Darren?" I asked. "Don't worry; you'll meet him soon," Ana assured me.

We got up, and the boys were with my box as we headed towards a building. Once inside, we climbed some stairs, and everyone was chatting about something, but I wasn't sure what to contribute. When we reached the table, a middle-aged woman was present. Before I could speak, Anna grabbed my map and dialed a number that seemed unimportant, causing me to tilt my head in confusion. "Oh, Miss June, you look so refreshed this morning," Jeremy remarked, making Miss June blush. I cleared my throat and said, "Okay, Miss Majoris S.C, your file indicates that you haven't chosen a major yet. Is that correct, Miss Carnis?she continued switching my name" "Yes, ma'am," I replied. "Since you haven't made a selection, you'll be taking all 12 science courses." She typed on her computer, informing me that my private room was under renovation and that I would be placed in the counseling house in the D dorm. If I had any objections, the Dean would return from Ireland in three weeks, and my private room would be ready in three months. A private room would be assigned to me in the counseling house, and my belongings were already being moved there. That was all, Miss Carnis.
