Early morning, Remillia woke up by the sound of her smart watch and phone continuously beeping. With one eye open, she checked the contents of her mail. She received 99 notifications. Most are from her group chat while the others are from students she doesn’t know. When I opened the group chat, they were already asking if I can fight with them especially Rex, he has the most ssages than the rest.
11:34 P.M
Rex: Witch, are you still awake?
Rex: No reply?
Angela: Have you seen her fights? She won her fight three tis!
Whitney: Her second fight was funny though.
Rex: Oh right, hahahaha. I really can’t believe she got lucky without exerting much effort.
Cypher: Her last fight was intense. I didn’t know that she can do that to a dagger.
Christian: Did you see how she multiplied her daggers? That was amazing!
Rex: That makes want to fight her more!
12:01 A.M
Rex: Witch don’t forget our fight tomorrow, okay?
Edge: Can you just continue chatting later? It’s 12:01 for f*ck’s sake!
Rex: Sorry, I’ll sleep now.
5:00 AM
Angela: Remi, do you rember when I first said to you to spar with ? Fight with .
Rex: Hey! I was the one who asked first! Don’t you know the policy, first co first serve?
Angela: Huh? What’s that?
Whitney: She hasn’t even chatted with us yet. Let’s wait for her to wake up.
Rex: Witch, wake up already!
Rex: Witch!
Rex: Witch!
The three replied to Rex’s chats.
Angela: As if that would wake her up!
Whitney: Stop spamming the group chat!
Edge: Are you dumb?
Reading their chats, her once foul mood imdiately brightened up.
’It’s nice to have friends in school again.’
Remillia: It’s early in the morning, why are you fighting anyway?
Rex: Finally! The sleeping witch is awake! What ti will I schedule our fight?
Remillia: Do we really have to fight today?
Angela: Remi, have you forgotten that I was the first one to request to fight you?
Rex: That’s invalid! That was a long ti ago!
Remillia: I will not be fighting for today.
Rex: What?!
Angela: Okay.
Rex: I wanted to fight with you!
Remillia: Believe , I also want to kick your ass but I’m not in the mood today.
Rex: You’re scared aren’t you?
Remillia: No, why would I?
Rex: Scaredy witch.
Remillia: @asshole, I’m not.
Rex: Then fight , scaredy witch.
Remillia: Provoking doesn’t get you anywhere, @sshole.
After a few minutes, Rex didn’t chat anymore. Relieved, I went back to sleep again. 10 minutes have passed when my smartwatch dinged again. This ti it was a different notification. I opened it and almost threw my smart watch outside the balcony.
[The majority of the students voted for Rex Harrison and Remillia Lockhart to duel at 10:30 A.M.]
"THAT FREAKING @SSHOLE!"
She looked at the group chat when she heard it ’ting’.
Rex: Hehe, I asked the students to vote you and .
Whitney: What do you an ’asked’? You practically forced them to use their votes!
Rex: Hehe.
Christian: Wow! The audacity bruh.
Remillia: Co on! Why would you do that huh? I just want to sleep and watch!
Rex: Because.. I’m bored?
Remillia’s thumb pressed her phone screen so hard causing it to crack. Her phone is old already, she wants to buy a new one but she doesn’t want to spend any money.
Remillia: Let’s have a deal.
Rex: Sure. If I win, call master from the whole sester.
Remillia: If I win, buy the latest Xphone. I broke my screen just now.
Rex: Deal.
Remillia: @everyone, let’s go have breakfast before I kick this @sshole’s butt.
Whitney: Where should we eat?
Christian: Breakfast!
Cypher: Sounds great!
Angela: I know a place! Their moonflower waffles is very delicious and is recomnded by the chef!
Rex: Wait. Have you already gone to Moonbeam Mornings?
Christian: Is that the newly opened restaurant last week?
Rex: Yes.
Angela: Of course, that’s where I tried their famous moonflower waffles!
Rex: That’s my favorite place and you’re right, their waffles is to die for!
Remillia: Is it pet friendly?
Angela: I think so. I see dogs and cats there whenever I dine in.
Remillia: Great! Let’s go there.
Cypher: Is Macaron coming?
Remillia: Yes.
Whitney: Hey Edge, you coming?
Edge: I have sothing to do.
Angela: You’re not coming? There are many dishes there if you don’t want to try their tonkatsu.
Edge: I just checked my schedule, I thought I have sothing to do today but apparently there’s none so I’m coming instead.
Remillia shook her head at how fast Edge changed her mind, when Angela asked him to co.
~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~
20 minutes later, they all t up in front of Sunbeam Mornings. The exterior is sleek and modern, with a neon-lit facade that pulsates with an ethereal glow. The entrance is flanked by towering glass walls, offering a glimpse into the bustling kitchen and giving diners a sneak peek at the culinary magic that awaits inside.
Edge and were the last one to arrive. He waited for at my front door as usual before we headed out. We were already near the restaurant when I spotted them but as soon as I saw Rex’s back, I silently snuck to him while motioning the others to keep quiet. I gave him a slap on the back of his head.
PAAAK!
Rex who was busy telling a joke to the others suddenly felt that he was staring at the pavent.
"Eh? What happened? Why am I looking at the floor?"
The others burst out in laughter.
"Pffft!"
"Hahaha!"
"Did you video it properly?"
"Why are you bowing down to us huh?"
His head bowed 180 degrees just because of a single slap! His face was flushed with anger and embarrassnt as he turned around to kill that person.
"Who’s the motherf*ck!in-"
His expression changed instantly as he saw who it was.
"Witch! Why did you do that for?"
"Nothing. I just think that your head wants to be slapped by ."
The others laughed again.
"That hurts you know?"
"Who’s fault is it anyway?"
"I’m sure you’re starving already. It’s my treat for accepting my duel."
Christian suddenly cut in, "you an forced hahaha."
Rex glared at him, telling him to shut up.
"Nevermind him. Let’s all have a hearty breakfast before the fight."
"Just to be sure, it’s your treat right?"
"Yeah, why?"
I imdiately called Macaron and pushed Rex inside the restaurant.
"H-hey wait! I’ll only pay for what you ea-mmpf!"
He can only mumble his words as Macaron stuck his wings inside his mouth.
’How dare these two abuse !’
When Remillia went inside, she was imdiately struck with awe.The interior features a dramatic, minimalist design, with walls adorned with delicate, hand-painted murals that seem to co alive as the light changes. The floor is made of polished marble, and the tables are set with fine decorum, crystal glasses, and delicate linens. The air is filled with the sweet scent of fresh flowers and the soft hum of gentle music.
"Woah... This is so breathtaking."
Rex agreed with her, "I was also captivated by the mont I first stepped here."
Angela cheerfully spoke behind , "What I liked the most are their foods. Their nu is also eye catching!"
Edge nudged her playfully, "you want to order you food here everyday?"
"No thanks, I have my own money."
Whitney tried to cut in Edge and Angela’s conversation but can’t find the right timing so in the end, she can only watch them while trying to contain her jealousy.
"What are you glaring at?"
Christian suddenly appeared beside her, making her yelp in shock.
"Aack! How did you get there?"
Christian looked at her confused, "But... I was here all the ti though."
Whitney cleared her throat, "next ti, don’t scare like that."
"What made you lost in your thoughts to not notice anyway?"
Christian looked at what she’s looking at a while ago then knowingly smiled at her, "ooooh, I get it now."
"Get what?"
"You know..."
Whitney hates it when people doesn’t finish what they are saying, "spill it now."
Christian leaned in towards her and whispered in her ear, "you’re jealous."
Whitney sneered at his remark, "no, I’m not! Why would I?"
He shrugged his shoulders as he pointed at her eyes, "I know that stare very well. Cypher always has that look when a guy approaches-" he stopped before continuing again, "anyways, there are many guys out there vying for your attention. Why not choose one of them?"
"They’re not him okay?"
"If only you could open your heart, who knows maybe there’s soone waiting for you."
"I appreciate your advice, really but can you easily teach your heart to love soone? Especially to soone who you’re close with ever since your a child?"
Christian suddenly patted her head, "I guarantee you, opening your heart will be worth a try."
Whitney finally gave him a sincere smile, "Thanks, Chris. I’ll call you Chris instead, your na is too long to pronounce. Also, don’t tell this to soone else. It will only be our secret, promise?" She held out her pinky finger.
Christian laughed at her childish movent but he held out his pinky finger too and wrapped it with hers, "promise."
