    GMM-Star High is an all-girls elite high school. Known to be run by the Kwongs. The Kwongs are famous for owning many companies and buildings including many real estates and dozens of luxury malls.

"Hey Nam!!! Wait for me!!" Milk​ ​Kwong shouted out from the car seat, her glasses shining in the sunlight as she ran towards her sister.

"Oh sis!" Namtan Kwong turned around, pulling Milk into a small embrace before waving their private driver goodbye.

"Come, it's your first day here. I'll bring you to your class." Namtan smiled as she and Milk walked into the large entrance of GMM-Star.

Namtan walked professionally, her frame radiating, her head looking ahead and her spine straighter than a ruler. She was the school council's president and undeniably the whole school's image.

Many students beamed at Namtan in awe. Some took photos of her, some tried to ask for signatures, while some were just trying to get to class in time.

"It's Namtan!"

"Look! Namtan Kwong!"

"President Namtan!"

Namtan wore her 'president' smile as students made a pathway for her and Milk. "Don't mind them." Namtan muttered to Milk, who turned red from all of the attention.

"Is this what happens every day?" Milk asked nervously. Stuttering when a few students pointed at Milk.

"Who's that? Namtan's friend?"

"Or her girlfriend??"

Namtan​ immediately halted to a stop, turning around and facing the crowd, her polite small still in place. "She's my twin sister. She just moved to this school." Namtan stated as Milk hesitantly waved to the crowd, holding Namtan's hand in a silent plea.

"Class is almost starting. You all should go now." Namtan added. The students obeyed, slowly scrambling to their classes.

"Come, your class is next to mine. It's pretty far from the gate so we should be quick." Namtan said, holding Milk's hand and bringing her through many hallways and doors. Milk stayed quiet the whole journey, trying to memorise the way to the class, but mostly just trying to spot the cafeteria.

Namtan finally stopped in front of Milk's class, she smiled. "Here's your class. If you have any questions about the school, ask me na~ I'll give you a tour after school." she said, waving goodbye to Milk. Milk waved back while entering her class, already surrounded by kind classmates introducing Milk to everyone.

Namtan smiled softly, a genuine smile. "I'm going to make sure she won't be lonely like last time." Namtan thought before entering her class.

"Good morning Phi!!!" a shorter girl greeted Namtan by the door, smiling brightly.

"Good morning, Bonnie. We're the same age. No need for that." Namtan chuckled, sitting on her seat in the front row.

"But I mean, being the president and a Kwong..." Bonnie started, her eyes always having that mischievous glint of mischief. "I have to address you formally."

Namtan laughed quietly. "I would rather have you call me Namtan." Namtan said, smiling.

"Will sure do, Namtan." Bonnie exclaimed before taking her seat two rows behind Namtan.

Every student was seated when the teacher arrived. "Swasdi, teacher." They all greeted their teacher in unison. Clean and perfect, every class is expected of that. If a student can't follow these expectations and guidelines, GMM will take any kind of disciplinary action to fix and improve the student's discipline.
