Ava looked at Elena with eyes full of admiration. Elena felt a bit uncomfortable under her gaze and blushed deep

red.

Unaware of Elena’s discomfort, Ava kept her innocent look, her big eyes wide with curiosity. “Elena, why is your

face so red?” she asked, pointing to her rosy cheeks.

Elysia, arms crossed and clearly entertained by the situation, was enjoying the playful banter when Elena turned

and shot her a glare. Elysia chuckled and said, “Ava, if you keep looking at Elena like that, she might just find a

place to hide.”

Elena glared at Elysia again, who seemed to be teasing her instead of helping her out. Ava, however, was

surprised. ‘When did Elysia becso close to Elena? So much seems to have changed in just a few days. Have

| missed something important?‘

A rush of questions flew through Ava’s mind. Her curiosity was intense. When Elena and Elysia noticed Ava’s

furrowed brow and serious expression, they couldn’t help but laugh together.

“What are you two laughing about?” Ava pouted, clearly feeling left out.

It becclear to her that there was something happening between the two that she didn’t know about.

Suddenly, she felt rather unnecessary.

In no time, Ava’s face changed tically; now she looked completely helpless. It was clear-she could switch

moods quickly.

Elysia playfully tapped her finger on Ava’s forehead, her tone teasing, “What on earth do you think about every

day?” After pulling her hand back, she clarified, “I visited Shecrity over the break and happened to run into

Elena.”

Ava nodded, now understanding. So that was the reason; their friendship had clearly deepened during the

holiday.

Ava asked, “Elena, did you cto Class 6 just to see Elysia again?”

Elysia lightly tapped the back of Ava’s head. “Your train of thought is really strange.”

“Isn't that right?” Ava shielded her head, her face showing exaggerated innocence.

Elena said, “Of course not. | cto talk about the Winter Sports Event with Elysia.”

When Ava heard “Winter Sports Event”, her eyes lit up, and she eagerly asked, “What does the Winter Sports

Event have to do with Elysia?”

Elena smiled and gave a quick explanation to Ava, who grew increasingly excited. “Elysia, this is so amazing. It

involves the Honor Guards, which is a big deal.”

Elysia chuckled, amused by Ava’s excitement.

“Elysia, | have to tell our classmates about this.” Before they could respond, Ava dashed toward the classroom.

Elysia laughed-Ava really was full of energy. As Ava passionately shared the news with their classmates, they,

too, got caught up in the excitement. It was clear that Elysia was impressive-Class 6 was about to shine with her.

Usually, candidates for the Honor Guards cfrom the higher classes, leaving Class 6 out of the mix. But now,

with Elysia involved, it finally felt like it was their time.

Meanwhile, in Class 2, Emma eagerly awaited news on who would take Bianca's place in the Honor Guards. She

desperately to hear her name, but there was no news yet.

She thought, “This is puzzling With Bianca injured, shouldn't they be quick to choose a new candidate? Why is

there still nothing?

Suddenly, a classmate burst into the room, announcing loudly, “Everyone, big news”

Emma’s eyes brightened with hope, surely this was about the Honor Guards.

“What is it? Tell us!”

“Yeah, Don’t keep us waiting”

“Bianca hurt her foot, and now there’s a new candidate for the Honor Guards.

The moment he finished, the class shrugged it off. “Is that really news? They'll just find someone to take her

place.”

“Who cares about that?”

“Wait. That's not the main point-do you know who the new candidate is?”

Emma’s heart raced; this had to be about her.

“Who is it? Does it even matter?”

“Right? It’s not even one of us.

Natalie said, “Unless it's someone from our class.

“Natalie, what do you mean by that?”

“What could | possibly mean? Just think about it.”

Everyone turned to look at Emma; logically, if they needed a last-minute replacement, she would be the ideal

choice, having been in that role last year and having the experience.

Emma held back her growing excitement, wishing to hear her nfrom the classmate.

Seeing everyone's anticipation, the classmate scratched his head nervously before saying, “Don’t get the wrong

idea-it's not Emma.*

Everyone gasped. “If it's not Emma, then who is it?” Emma, shocked, could only stare wide-eyed, hoping there

had been a

mistake.

“Who has taken Bianca's place, then?”

“Stop teasing us. Just tell us already.”

“It’s Elysia from Class 6”

Upon hearing that name, Emma's fists clenched, and her lips pressed tightly together in anger. Her heart burned

with

resentment.

‘Why is it her? All of my careful plans have only served to promote Elysia. Why is it always a competition

between us?‘ The anger bubbled inside her.

Meanwhile, the others were only briefly surprised before shrugging it off. After all, Elysia was undeniably saberee

class and blessed with beauty-she easily overshadowed Emma, who was supposed to be the belle.

As for Elysia’s ability to take on the role, that didn’t matter to them.

Natalie felt a bit uneasy, remembering how close she was to revealing, Emma’s name. If she had done that, it

would have been a real blow to Emma.

She thought to herself, puzzled, ‘Emma obviously is the better fit. What is the student union thinking/

Realizing Emma must be feeling down, Natalie reached out and gently placed a hand on her shoulder. “Emma,

it’s okay-" But before she could finish her sentence, Emma jumped up and ran for the door, Seeing this, Natalie

tried to follow, but Miss held her back and said, “Let her be; she needs a moment to herself.”
