Chapter 38: Now I'm in!
1097 Words
It's finally Monday. I already prepare my stuff the night before so that Michi wouldn't get suspicious of me. I haven't even tell Dad or Mom that I'm in University. Since it's the rule that I made. My road is my road. What I deemed right is my choice. Don't ask any question or try to backpedal me.
That's the rule that I make about myself. They can definitely influence my thought by Sarcasm. But the last call is only me to make.
I grab my Bag and Michi grab her. We go to the car and we drive to the Uni.
"Are you going to wait for me again?"
Michi asked with a smile. I nodded.
"Of course I'm going to wait. Since there's really nothing I can do in Atlantis. I would rather wait for you to kill time."
I said with calm and collected voice. She nodded and look at the road again. We just enjoy the drive to the Uni and after I drop her off. I park the car and wait for a bit. I wait for her to go to her Class. About 10 minute or so.
And then. It's time for me to go. Miss Shimizu told me to get ready since I'm going in at 7.30. Since she want to show the Short Film I made.
"Good Morning everyone!"
Miss Shimizu come to class earlier than usual. Which is not surprising since this is the start of the weeks. Her eyes are back to normal now. That's great.
I'm currently sitting with My Friends on the Middle Row. We're free to pick our seat so I always pick the middle row.
"Okay. Before we start the Lecture. I want to tell you guys something. We are lucky enough to be pick by one of the most Genius People right now. They are joining the Filming Class starting today. Are you guys excited to meet them?"
Miss Shimizu Asked. Everyone in sync including myself said.
"Yes!!!"
I'm really excited to see who this Genius is. Is it some Film Director going to teach us something? Wait. Joining Class? Is it new Lecturer or New Comrades?
"Okay. Before we meet them. Let's watch some of his work."
Miss Shimizu said. Okay... Let's see it! She put her Laptop and she started the Work. It's called Under the Blue Sky? Whose work is that?
And then... It hits me. OneSec appear right on the screen. I was bewildered.
Shiro is joining my Class?! No... No!!! No way!!! He's joining my Class!!! Oh my god! I'm so Happy! I can be with Shiro the entire Class now! I can flirt with him hiddenly!
I watch the movies. And there's Kaixen, Blossom and Me! Everyone was amazed by the work. They immediately clap their hand. The production did look like a pro huh... Shiro is so amazing...
I was smiling big like a mad person. Some people are sad. Mostly boys. About the Death of us... It's really amazing. The Short film that Shiro make is really out of this world. It makes us look like a grade schooler.
Miss Shimizu immediately said.
"Okay! Please Welcome! A 16 Years old Prodigy! Yes! He is 16 Years old! Shiro Shirone!"
My Friends and I immediately screamed 'Kyaaa!!!!'
Everyone was shocked by that. They immediately think. Who that person could be. And then. Shiro step in. He looks confident for someone who just joined.
"Hello Everyone. Thank you for Watching my Work. I hope you guys Like it. I'm Shiro Shirone. I'm 16 Years old. 17 in 2 months. And I'm a Graduates from Sivan High School. I Graduate Last Year and I hope we can be friends!"
I said to them. They were amazed by it. They recognize me as the guy who bring Fancy Cars to pick Michi. Michi waved at me. I waved back with a smile.
"Okay. Shiro. Tell them. What do you do and what your interest in Filming is."
"Okay. Mostly, I'm an Editor. But the Short Film you just saw is All produced by me. So I'm essentially a producer, sound designer, cameraman, director, actor, editor... I'm everything to be honest. But my Forte is in Editing and Sound Designing. I love making sound effect and sound track. And on the weekends. I love to play Games. So yeah. Nice to meet you all once again."
I said with a smile. Everyone clap their hands hearing all of that nasty stuff I said. Miss Shimizu look at me.
"Wait... You do all of that?!"
"Yes. Didn't I tell you and Director about it? That I'm the one doing everything."
She shake her head.
"Oh... Then I forgot..."
I said. Everyone just blurted for a bit. Miss Shimizu just get surprised even more.
"Anyway. Shiro, You are free to pick your Group. Remember. Film is about group project and working together. So pick wisely."
She said. My eyes turn cold. Everyone gulped. They know my skills. So they want me to lead them and edit for them. So I immediately use my eyes to judge them.
I look at Miss Shimizu and said.
"Hey Miss. I want to know. Which one should I join according to you?"
I asked. She immediately said.
"Probably Michi's Group. They are a really good team. But they're struggling with Producer, Director and Cameraman."
Uwaah... Michi... Your group really struggling huh.
"Okay then. I'll join their group."
They immediately shout toward Michi. I look at them and said.
"Can you guys shut up and not make a really pitchy Scream? You're disturbing others."
I said with a smile. They blushed and nodded. Everyone clap their hand for no reason at all... My group is all girls. So, I wonder how I'm going handle it...
Everyone split away and let me sit down directly beside Michi to the point our shoulder is touching.
She was really nervous when She is right beside me... That's weird... Oh well... Let's just start.
"Okay. It seems like everyone is ready. Show me your Project!"
Miss Shimizu said. Everyone nodded and give their Project to Miss Shimizu. She didn't hold back on the critique and list all the mistakes. I love her way of teaching so much. Even though she is blunt on the way she critiquing. She never really make fun of it.
She just tell them where is wrong and what they need to do. Everyone isn't embarrassed when they were wrong. They were glad that Miss Shimizu pick up that. And then... Come the Clusterfrick... Michi's Group...
