Chapter 104: Reflection of Self

Isla walked back to her dorm with Saanvi after Kiro's trial. She felt very exhausted, she did run around the 1st year campus looking for the trial after all.

"You did well telling me."

Saanvi gave her a sinister grin, "Isla Silva, liking a boy. That's very rare."

In their previous school, Isla had been confessed to more than she cared to remember and she had shot every single one of them down. She never grew interest in the opposite gender until she came here, to Eden Academy.

It was a new and strange feeling, she often wondered why the first boy she liked wouldn't be approved by her family, and most of all, Kiro never showed any romantic feelings towards her. Even after she kissed him. She thought it may be karma since she rejected all of them before.

"Well, whatever, it's not like he likes me back. I don't want to push it either, Kiro doesn't trust rich people."

"That's his loss." Saanvi rolled her eyes with an annoyed expression.

"It's with good reason though, look at what Isaac did to his family."

Saanvi looked a bit ashamed, she had forgotten all about that. That was her main flaw, if a problem wasn't hers, it was not rare that she'd put it out of her mind. She also didn't know why, but Kiro reminded her of her older brother, that's why she got the urge to bicker with him all the time.

The campus around them was lively, thanks to the trial that just ended. Everyone was discussing, gossiping about Ursa and Isaac. Even though Isaac distanced himself from the incident, people had their suspicions. Everyone had seen them together on campus, on occasion.

Nobody was bold enough to speak up though. That's just the kind of power and influence Isaac had over this school, thanks to his family's status. The gossiping only ended in whispers nothing more.

Just then, her phone rang. She groaned seeing who it was, she bit her lip and contemplated whether or not to answer. She decided to answer, if she didn't, she'd be on the news in a matter of days.

"Dad," She said attempting a smile.

"My little Rosie, where are you?" Concern plagued his voice.

"Dodged a bullet," she softly said.

"I know, you know, he won't let it go. He's probably researching the incident right now." Saanvi reminded her.

"I know, I know." She sighed, and started thinking of countermeasures to protect Kiro from even her father.

Isla hadn't played the game in a while and since school was out for the day because of the trial, she had time now. They both walked into their dorm rooms and wore the gear, logging in.

"How ominous."

Isla started to see the world differently. What was once invisible for her was clear as day. Colours she didn't know could even exist, the atmosphere was full of tiny little lights. At first it was blinding but gradually, she got used to the brightness.
