You hit the snooze button on your alarm clock and snuggled under your blanket. “Joo Ri-ya. Ya, Song Joo Ri,” Ji Min shook you awake. You squinted an eye at her. She was already in her uniform. “Wake up or you’ll be late,” she said. You jolted upright, remembering what day it was. Crap! “Hurry up. Let’s go to the cafeteria together when you’re done,” Ji Min said as she sat on her bed and pulled out her make-up kit. You quickly did your early morning preparations and mentally scolded yourself for tardiness. “Let’s go,” you said as you finished just in time that Ji Min was done with her make-up. “Wow, that was fast. You look good in your uniform,” she told you. “Really?” You said and checked yourself out in the mirror. You did look nice. Or rather the uniform looks nice, you corrected yourself. Both of you headed to the cafeteria to grab some breakfast right after. The line at the food counter was ridiculously long. “Joo Ri-ya, let’s go to the campus cafeteria. I think there are less people there,” Ji Min told you. “Okay, breakfast would take us forever with this line,” you agreed. You got out of the line and bumped into someone along the way. “YA! Watch where you’re going!” A pretty girl with an intimidating aura yelled at you. “Sorry,” you said apologetically. “Stupid girl,” you heard her mutter which made you turn around in shock. “C’mon,” Ji Min pulled you away. The two of you started heading towards the campus. “That was Queen Choi So Yeon, the worst girl you’ll ever meet in our year,” Ji Min told you. “Just don’t mind her. You’re not the first person she treated like that.” “So there are also monster es, huh.” “You bet,” Ji Min sighed. “She’s pretty influential. She’s the head of the Student Press as well as the vice president of the Student Council. It’s better to just avoid her.” “Okay. I hope we’re not on the same class.” “Oh, you still don’t know your class right?” “Yeah. The chairman’s gonna hand me my schedule today.” “Well, there are three classes in our year: Star, Moon, and Sun. Queen's in Sun Class. I belong to the Moon class. I hope they place you there.” “I hope so too. By the way, which class does Lay belong to?” “He’s in the Sun class. Why?” “Nothing. Just a random question,” you quickly answered. “Ya, are you crushing on Lay?!” “SSSSHH!” You hissed and glanced around you. The other students didn’t seem to have heard her. “So, it’s true?” “I think he’s very kind,” you admitted. “But that’s all there is to it ‘kay?” “Woah, what are you suddenly getting so defensive about? It’s normal to have crushes, dummy,” she teased, tickling you on the waist. “I can’t blame you if you like him. He’s very popular with girls because he’s kind and gentle. He's also a bit shy and it makes him more adorable. Good luck,” she patted your shoulder. The campus cafeteria was also swarming with students, but it was fewer as compared to the dorms. You finished your breakfast quickly and went first since you still had to pass by the Chairman’s Office. Ji Min and you agreed to meet at the cafeteria entrance around lunch. You quickly made your way to your destination. “Good morning Song Joo Ri-sshi!” The chairman greeted you cheerfully the moment you entered his office. This time, he was wearing a floral short sleeved button-up shirt and plain white shorts which made him look like he just came back from a trip to Hawaii. “Good morning chairman,” you greeted back. “Well, here’s your class schedule,” he said and handed a sheet of paper to you. “Please show that to your teachers and have them sign it at the start of each class. Here’s also the key to your locker.” You took your key and class schedule and safely placed them inside your bag before you forget all about them. “Also, please take this and wear it around your wrist,” he said as he gave you a metallic band with the school’s logo at the center. You took it and eyed it curiously. “That device is called a limiter,” he informed you. “That will seal any monstrous ability you have that is beyond human capacity. It also keeps you from transforming into your monster forms. All students are required to wear that during class hours and you are only to take it off when your teachers instruct you to. This is to discipline you to not abuse your abilities. Of course you can take that off after class hours.” “Oh, okay,” you said and strapped the limiter into your wrist. The
