Aurore Reed aka Rory's POV :

I look at my reflection in the mirror. I cut my damn hair. Damn center. I wonder how Mio is now.  It has been such a long time.

Sixteen years... and seven years. It was so hard but obligatory.

My best friend walks into the bathroom without knocking.

— What are you doing ? Did you see the time ?
— I'm coming, I'm coming... I blow.

She looks at me and a sad smile appears on her lips.

— Forgetting is easier but it's complicated, right ?
— Right, bitchy.

I hug her.

— Well, hurry up, Sophie will kill us if we don't hurry. she laughs.
— Okay, I'll hurry. I exclaim.

We leave the bathroom. Sophie breathes with stress.

— You want to expel us, you sick bastard.
— Of course not. quips my best friend.

Susanna open the door and we head towards the large stairs. Eliott and Michael are waiting for us at the meeting. When we arrive near the garden gate, Melody is waiting for us, sighing in frustration.

— Damn, what took you so long !

We open the door. All eyes fall on us in dead silence.

— Excuse our delay but we couldn't find the toilets. says Melody.
— Sit and listen for once. Sugar blows.

Our group sat on the empty chairs with Michael and Eliott. My best friend smiles at me.

— Alexiandra, hold on this time again. shouts one of the officials. She stands up and curtsies.
— Sit.

Alexiandra sat down and hid a laugh. She sees my smile fade a little.

— Tout ira bien, je te le promets. (Everything will be fine, I promise you.)

She holds out her little finger.

— Promise ?
— Promise.
