Chapter 11: School Goddess
"Good morning, Serena, right? Again, I am Gizel and this is my cousin Via. Would you care to join us in exploring the school grounds?" The girl who sat beside Serena asked her in a friendly manner while introducing her cousin who sat in front of her.
"Sure, thank you for inviting me, Gizel, Via." Serena replied as she smiled back.
"Would you mind if I join you? I am Millicent by the way, you may call me Milly." The girl in front of Serena cut in.
"Of course, Milly. Let's go?" Gizel replied, being the self-appointed leader of the group.
The group of four collected their pouches. As they left the class. Serena was able to observe that cliques already started to form. Serena stood beside Gizel, walking in front, while Milly and Via stood behind them.
"So... Serena, is it true that you are the fiancé of Crown Prince Geoffrey?" Gizel asked, being quite the gossip monger.
"Ah... well.... Kinda?" Serena answered feeling awkward. 'Well, soon to be ex-fiance, but still a fiancé now...'
"Ooohhhh I heard about it from mother. She said that the queen was so upset at that time as the kingdom of Horace wanted to form ties with Windsor through marriage. However, the princess is still so young. She just turned twelve this year. Talking about princesses, what can you say about Teacher Grace? Isn't she just wonderful?" Milly chimed in.
"Yes, I just want to be like her in the future." Via replied seriously.
The four of them walked through the school and Serena was able to gauge the characters of her newfound friends.
Gizel and Via were from the kingdom of Militeia. Gizel was a daughter of Marquess Morris, she was outspoken and quite the gossip. She has an older brother who is a senior this year.
Via was the first born child of Earl Gonzales who is also a general. Coming from a military family, she is a little quiet and serious. The two were maternal cousins.
Milly was from Horace, she is the youngest daughter of Earl Stark. She was also a gossip and hit it off immediately with Gizel as the two of them had a lot in common.
Serena having had a daughter and granddaughter found it easy to get along with the girls. She also liked them.
"No problem, even if we're not in school, you may continue to do so, as you are now my friends..."
"Wow! Thanks Serena! I can't wait to write my mother and tell her that I became friends with the future queen of Windsor. Don't worry I will note that she should tell the queen to forsake her idea regarding the crown prince as you are the most beautiful girl in the empire!" Milly said enthusiastically which made Serena blush.
"Yes, I totally agree with Milly. How do you make your skin so white and blemish free? I need to take pointers from you Serena! The crown prince must be head over heels for you. We saw him earlier during his speech, he is also very handsome. You guys are a match made in heaven." Gizel added.
"Well, I don't want to burst your imaginary bubbles, but crown prince Geoffrey and I haven't even been introduced to each other. Besides, being his wife is not yet written in stone. With regards to beauty, I don't know about being the most beautiful. But personally, I think all of you have your own points... besides, true beauty comes from within." Serena said with a smile, showing both her dimples, exuding her charm. 'Well, although I do enjoy my current beauty, I also did experience my skin becoming wrinkled with age. But it is indeed true that these three are also quite pretty.'
Although one can say that the female lead is only second to Serena in terms of beauty, other characters were not treated badly. Most of the students were not bad looking, in fact more than half have above average looks.
Via was the tallest amongst them. She stood at 5 foot 8, has brunette hair, olive skin and brown eyes. She exudes exotic beauty reminisce of girls from the Mediterranean. Gizel has similar features only a little shorter. Standing at 5 foot 6, she is the second tallest. The two had well proportioned body.
Milly was of the same height as Serena, standing at 5 foot 5, she has fair skin, red hair, and hazel eyes. Although not as beautiful as the other two, what was outstanding was her voluptuous body that can not be hidden by her dress.
"Not only is she beautiful, she also has a kind heart! Even though I'm a girl I want to propose to you already!" Milly exclaimed exaggeratedly while grinning from ear to ear.
It was unknown to Serena that during this time, she has already been the center of attention of almost all the boys in school. When she entered the assembly hall, she immediately became their white moonlight. Thus, it was not surprising that when all the first year boys were dismissed early, they tried to look for her.
In the hallway of the east wing, she, along with her friends did not notice that the boys were actually trying to listen to their conversation. A lot of hearts were broken when they learned of her name, they can only sigh when she smiled that smile which put the flowers in bloom to shame. It may be true that her marriage is not yet written in stone, but what kind of idiot will not marry her? Not only was she very beautiful, she also sounds so humble! She's not just an angel. She must be a goddess.
Short to say, Serena earned the title school goddess that day.
