Capítulo 6: A Surprise
In the faculty room~
"I heard that there will be a mass entrance examination from school and training centers tomorrow." his physics teacher said while opening his table's drawer.
His teacher asked him to help bring the exam papers to the faculty room. As he was a top notch in his class, techers are fond of conversing and talking with him. Sometimes they would ask him to bring exam papers- like this one. And they also give him advices, talk to him about his future life. Some even offer to sponsor to study in a high class university.
"Yes! It is scheduled tomorrow at around 9:00 AM." he replied. Of course Peter would know - he have applied for that.
"Oh, I heard that the Association would be there too. They would be giving ten slots to enter their training center to deserving excellent students." his teacher said as if trying to see Peter's expression of shock. He knew that Peter had a burning desire to join the Association.
The Association don't usually recruit trainees from Senior High but this year, someone suggested and was agreed upon by others. The Association said that it would be better to train students in their early years. The evaluation will of course be difficult. Even college graduates are having a hard time joining the association and some students don't even want to try. When the Association said that they are giving ten slots, is is to be expected that none of the students would pass the evaluation.
"Yes sir, I have already applied for it last week." when he apllied, there were still little number of names on the application list. But he was shocked by the latter part of his teacher's words. Why didn't he heard of that news?
His teacher seemingly know what he was thinking added, "En..they have just announced it this morning. I think the application form would be filled up on the spot and other documents could be passed after passing the evaluation so there is no need for requirements in the mean time." this teacher of his was willing to help Peter to become a known prodigy. How proud a teacher must be seeing his student reach his goals.
"I must thank you for the information, teacher." Peter was grateful to his teacher. If he could passed that evaluation he would go straight to ASEA and train to be one of them even without entering college.
After having some exchange, Peter exited the faculty room. His physics class was the last to give the exam - his other subject are already finished with the exams the day before.
He was free for the whole afternoon but instead of going home early, he decided to visit the library. And he still has to wait for Julie. As much as possible he did not want to waste his time so he reads books in his leisure time.
On the way to the library he saw students making their way to the faculty office and some for the library. At the end of classes, students usually bid farewells to their teachers.
At the library~
...
When he arrived at the entrance of the library there was a long queue queue signing up at the logbook of the library. The librarian is Ms. Fannie. Peter waited for a few more minutes before finally having his turn.
"Hello Ms. Fannie!" he greeted the lady librarian before getting the logbook to sign up.
Ms. Fannie is at her 30's already. She was an alumni of the school so she was instantly hired when she applied for the position.
Ms. Fannie paused for a moment and lift her sight up to see who has come. She smiled when she learned that it was Peter, "It's you again book nerd. It is already the end of the semester and yet here you are. If not for the fact that you almost come here everyday to busy your self with reading, I might think that you have a liking on me." Ms. Fannie said jokingly with a slight chuckle.
Peter already got used to her jokes - she does that everytime. He awkwardly replied, "Hehehe Ms. Fannie is really good at flattering me. Well, my classes are already completed and I have a lot of time at hand so I thought that I better use it for good."
"Oh!" she lowly exclaimed. She really admire Peter for being too conscious with how he used his time. "Okay then, you can go in now." she said after letting Peter signed up for entering the library.
Inside the library, there were a number of students. Peter knew some of them. As he come to the library almost everyday, it wouldn't be a joke if he said he knew how many times a student in the school has entered the library.
The library has two sections for each floor. He was going where the Astronomy Section is located - the second floor.
On the way to the stairs, he saw familiar faces - those who also come to the library a lot.
One of them is Andrei - a linguistics genius. They greeted each other. "Hi Andrei." Peter greeted.
"Hola amigos." Andrei replied to his greeting in Spanish. Andrei can be considered as a genius in linguistics. When he was still a 4th grader, he could already sleak 13 languages from 13 different countries. He is now in the same year as Peter.
After the greetings and a few pleasantries, Peter continued walking. The library also have a Puzzle Section, this is where you can find most mind games such as Chess, Checker, Four-In-A-Row, Crossword Puzzles, Jigsaw Puzzles and many other puzzles. This section is almost filled with students everyday. Even with this many students, it is still rare to hear a noise and that is because Ms. Fannie is strict. The number of students have increased as their classes are already completed so they had a lot of free time.
As he usually does before going up to his favorite section, he would watch a game or two. He is now watching a game of chess. The students playing were both Sophomores.
"Hello Peter." the two of them greeted upon seeing Peter going to their table. Peter is quite known in the campus eventhough he only has a small number of friends and that is thanks to the teachers and his brain. His previous teachers woyld usually tell their class about him - for motivational purposes and it seems to be effective.
"Hi Dave - hi Stein! How is the game going?" Peter often see them here.
Dave scratched his head, "I think I am gonna lose to Stein again. I haven't won a game with him since forever."
"That is because you are not focusing on the game. Put yourself into the game and you would be a chess prodigy." Stein said mockingly.
"Hey Peter, can you help me win just this game?" Dave looked at Peter with a helpless expression.
"Okay!" Peter went on to move the Queen piece.
Stein was dumbstrucked. "How could that be?" his King was now checked with nowhere to move. It was only by sacrificing his Queen piece but even with that he would still lose. "You are indeed a genius Peter." that was all he could say.
After watching the bothe of them for a few more games, Peter headed straight to the Astromomy Section. It is now about 1:30 PM, at 4PM would be Julie's break time.
The Astronomy Section is seldom visited by students. It is only crowded when there are written researches required by their teachers in Astronomy. Other than Peter and the librarian - Ms. Fannie, there was also the janitor who keeps the books clean every after the classes.
When he was near the entrance to the section, he heard books flipping - as if someone was reading.
'It can't be Ms. Fannie, right?' he thought to himself. ' And I am sure that it can't also be the janitor as it is still early in the afternoon.
