"I love you too, Zeph,"
Thalia replied, her teary eyes fixed on the boy she had fallen deeply for. Even though her intuition whispered about sothing amiss, she didn't care. She just wanted him.
After losing her brother, she had been traumatized for many days until her father taught her how to survive. He explained the importance of rising above their family's status, just as he had. In a matter of days, she beca the Viscount's heir, burdened with responsibilities.
She always tried to act mature, even when her father arranged her marriage with soone famous for his tantrums and slight weight. She accepted her fate but never let it deter her from her path of achieving a high-ranking title.
But now, she was distracted. She had beco entangled in sothing she never wanted to be a part of—love. In this mont, she felt happiness unlike any other. For her, it was as if she didn't have to choose between status and love anymore; she could have both. It didn't matter now.
"Zeph," she called out, her voice barely above a whisper.
"Yes, Thalia?" he responded.
"I'm really happy, Zeph. If you want sothing, then..." She hesitated, embarrassed to complete her sentence, but she wanted him to express what she could never put into words.
"Not yet, Thalia. Let's first complete our first year. Then we can beco a big family," Zeph replied with a chuckle.
"Huh? A big family?" Thalia was puzzled by his words.
"I an, we'll start our own family. I think it's getting late. Why don't we head back?" Zeph suggested as he looked towards the sky.

They, Unaware of the people who were watching their conversation,
Adriannel couldn't help but chuckle at the things they had noticed, which Thalia remained unaware of.
"Did you really ask him to take care of Valeriana?" Adriannel inquired.
"I... now I think, I indeed made a mistake," Deventhia replied, her eyes narrowing slightly and a faint frown forming on her face as she spoke.
"It's okay, you have at least a year now," he replied with a slight laugh, glancing towards Deventhia, who seed to be looking at the boy.
"Deventhia, don't use that on the boy. He is marked by 'Evangeline,'" Professor Adriannel said with seriousness in his voice. Deventhia, upon hearing this, widened her eyes briefly before relaxing and then glanced at the boy with a faint smile.
"Interesting. What did she find in that boy? and what's that Adriannel, did you gave him that ring"
Upon looking carefully Deventhia saw a ring in the boy's hand that made her recall so past mories.
"...."
"So, you bla everything on Evangeline rather than accepting that you are also interested in the boy," Deventhia couldn't help but chuckle.
"Indeed, I'm not the only one intrigued by the boy," Adriannel remarked, his tone holding a hint of amusent. "Isn't that right, Professor Deventhia? Otherwise, why would you have prevented from taking that egg?" He recalled how she had thwarted his attempt to claim the egg, using a flimsy excuse to let it remain with him

As I woke up in the morning, feeling refreshed after shedding my fatigue, it was a good start to the day. I took a refreshing bath and put on my Academy's uniform.
Upon arriving at the classroom, I noticed Zeph was, as always, running late. I took my seat and began preparing for the upcoming classes. Eventually, he strolled in and found his place.
His thoughts were plain, focused on how boring the classroom was and such. However, there was this peculiar girl,Thalia,whose mind was filled with so 'big family' nonsense.
Was she on sothing?
Despite that, she had impressive ranks, so I hope it's just a simple quirk.
I couldn't help but sneak glances at the odd pair. Thalia's thoughts were truly sothing else.
I couldn't help but wonder if she had so issues.
How could she contemplate tying Zeph and trapping him in a room?
And what's with those 'teddy bear' nonsense?
My head was starting to ache.
