EUNBYEOL'S SUITCASES ARE BY A BED AT the end of the room. It's as if she never left home as her eyes gloss around the room. Nothing is remotely similar to her room back in Eden but somehow, everything is exactly the same. The three girls who are already waiting in the room have claimed a bed for themselves, leaving the beds closest to the window available for Jiwoo and Eunbyeol. Their suitcases are in the middle of the room, Eunbyeol's a dark grey colour.

   "We hope you don't mind that we swapped beds," one of the girls says, gesturing to the beds they left for the two girls that walked in. "The three of us didn't want beds by the window,"

   "No, it's alright," Eunbyeol fakes a smile, rolling her suitcase to the bed closest to the window. "I'm Go Eunbyeol, by the way. And you guys are?"

   The girls introduce themselves. Han Yeseul is tall and lean with long black hair that has pulled into a high ponytail. Jung Mirae is the shortest of them all but the way she holds herself makes it seem like she should be a giant. Her hair is cut short to her neck, framing her small face beautifully. Kang Seohee looks like she could be Headmistress Hwang's daughter. Both have very similar, sharp features.

It's quiet in the room as everyone unpacks. Eunbyeol lifts her suitcases and places them on her bed, slowly unzipping it open. It was a struggle to close it, Eunbyeol remembers as the contents flow out the casing. She has yet to see the dresses her sisters had made for her so when her eyes land on the white, flower embroidered gown, she feels her heart stop beating.

   "Woah. Where did you get that dress from?" Jiwoo comments, walking over to admire the dress close-up. "I don't think I have ever seen a dress this beautiful before,"

   "Right? My sisters made it for me," Eunbyeol answers her, taking the other dresses out with it.

   They had a large wardrobe on one side of the room, the doors split for the five students. Eunbyeol claims the door closest to her, right by Yeseul's bed. She hangs her dresses up neatly into the units, placing their matching accessories and shoes in the storage compartments under the rail. She folds her day clothes and pyjamas into another compartment before closing the door.

   "Details about uniform and lockers are in an envelope on your bedside table," Jiwoo points to the white maple wooden table by Eunbyeol's bed. "I'm locker number twenty-five. You?"

   Eunbyeol takes small strides towards it and picks it up swiftly in between her fingers. She rips it gently open, taking the letter into her hand.
