Accommodation List
At the front stood a stern-looking woman with a digital tablet in hand, her voice firm and unwavering as she read through the list of assigned roommates.Each name echoed through the lobby like a verdict.Mason stood somewhere in the middle of the crowd, his fingers wrapped around the strap of one of his duffel bags. His eyes wandered over the familiar faces, some excited, some anxious, others already forming silent alliances. This was temporary, only a few days in the dorms before they returned to civilization.“Samule, Jude, Peter, Alec, Hopkins, and Jadin." The sound of the woman's voice jolted him from his thoughts.Across the lobby, a sharp scoff cut through the air.Jacob and his associate stood at the far corner, dressed in polished confidence that bordered on arrogance. Jacob’s frown looked permanent, as if stitched into his expression.“They want me to share a room with this lowlife?!” he spat, loud enough for
Temporary Dormitory
The bus finally rolled to a halt at the edge of the island’s temporary dormitory compound, and the faint scent of salt from the nearby sea drifted in through the half-open windows. Above them, the moon hung, casting a silver veil across the landscape. Uncertainty lingered through the bus, and the students stirred from their reflections on the contrast between the moonlight and the warmer glow spilling from the compound ahead.The dormitory towered above them from the distant, almost modest and welcoming. The exterior was bathed in a mixture of pale yellow and the golden shimmer from lamps fixed along the wall perimeter. The doors of the bus hissed open, and one by one, the students exited, with their luggage in their hands. Few had their backpacks slung over their shoulders; others dragged rolling suitcases that rattled over the uneven ground. The fatigue of travel lingered in their movements, but curiosity brightened their eyes as they glanced around the unfamiliar compound.“So t
Regulations
The sound of an incoming vehicle attracted everyone's attention, and a brief silence passed through the crowd. The students narrowed their gaze to the two coastal buses, which stopped a short distance from them. The bold letters crested on one side of the buses made the division painfully clear.Murmurs instantly rippled through the crowd the moment the realization finally settled.“What? We are using separate buses?” one of the students spat.“That’s ridiculous.”“We just landed, for goodness’ sake," another voice lamented.Some couples stood frozen, with their fingers laced together as if refusing to let go might bend the rules. Others who had made perfect vacation plans exchanged bitter looks, with annoyance sharp in their eyes. Unlike the other student, whose face wore an expression far from satisfaction, Mason remained unfazed. He didn't know why the students were still surprised at the announcement. They have been in the university for years, enough to know the rules and regula
Arriving At Song Island
The airplane commenced its gradual descent, gliding smoothly through a dense curtain of clouds as Song Island gradually emerged beneath them. Its breathtaking terrain was laced with pure nature, prompting a wave of gasps spread through the cabin. Everyone quickly pressed their faces to the windows, their eyes wide with awe. Their gazes drifted across the waters, sparkling under the afternoon sun to the coastline, holding several tall palm trees. They all stood in a line like vigilant sentinels with its fronds swaying gently in the breeze as if welcoming the aircraft’s arrival. A few distance from the resort at the shore, modern buildings with minimalist designs rose faintly above the greenery, hinting at the island’s developed areas.For a moment, it felt almost surreal; such an unspoiled, stunning paradise seemed too perfect to be real. One student nearly lifted out of their seat, with his eyes glued to the window with an expression of wonder, as if the island might vanish if they b
Flight 2
Mason studied her for a moment, her calm face laced with hidden tension. Even when she tried to hide, he could clearly see through her. Without a word Mason leaned back in his own seat, allowing the silence to settle between them.A few minutes later, the flight attendant returned with his order.“Sir—” she paused, her eyes briefly flicking to Cleopatra, whose eyes now fluttered open. “Here is your request.”Cleopatra turned slowly toward Mason, and their eyes met.‘Is she jealous?’ Mason thought.Ignoring the momentary awkwardness, he asked softly, “Are you hungry?”Cleopatra nodded.Mason turned to the attendant. “Could I get another? My girlfriend will be having this.”He took the tray from the attendant and placed it gently in front of Cleopatra.“Oh,” the attendant said, her gaze lingering on Cleopatra for a second before returning to Mason. “Right away, sir.”Cleopatra lifted the wine glass, took a sip, and frowned; then her eyes lit up, but she quickly replaced her expression,
Flight 1
The first-class cabin flourished with luxury, its amber lights glowing along the ceiling, reflecting off the wood panels and cream colored leather seats, which were wide enough to feel like small thrones. The air lingered faintly of lavender and something expensive he couldn’t name. As Mason stepped into the section, his pace slowed, not out of hesitation. Despite being the youngest richest man in Aleric City, this was his first time flying not only first class but also on a plane. In the past, he was always too busy with work and school activities, but now it is different.He adjusted the cuff of his jacket, suddenly aware of how quiet everything was compared to the economy section behind him. No crowding or raised voices, just murmured conversations and the subtle hum of luxury. He found his seat by the window, and a smile appeared on his face. Mason placed his stuff beside him, then slid into the plush leather chair.The seat seemed to mold around him, probably among the many reas
