I was constantly tortured by the never ending studying done in the last eight months . Thanks to that, Luke and I earned a stable amount of 30,000 points each months .
It was the usual routine just like elementary school . At this point, there was nothing different from elementary school except that the content of the class just had a rise in difficulty as you would expect from anywhere .
I was sitting in the cafe with Ellen and Shelly as we were taking a break together from all that studying .
"I wish we could go outside the school again," Ellen muttered .
"Yea, it was nice in the third district . . . " Shelly added on and then stopped when noticing I was here with them .
"No, it's ok . It was somewhat better in the third district if not for the incident," I told them .
Ellen and Shelly looked somewhat relieved and then continued on to talk about other topics while enjoying their tea .

"My older brother had told me that middle school students have practical exams twice a year," Shelly told us .
"The third district only?" I asked in curiosity .
"The first, second and third districts for middle schoolers," Shelly replied confidently while whispering .
"If you think about it, it's about time for our practical exam since they only have it twice a year," Ellen said while smiling .
I shivered while I suddenly felt something cold on my spine .

It was Friday evening when the class was to supposed to end got extended .
"Class, today we will be doing something different . " Daniel announced .
Maybe the cold sensation came from what was about to come from Daniel's announcement .
"You will be having another practical exam this year before we let you go for summer vacation," Daniel continued .
Summer vacation? The summer vacation that I thought that didn't exist in the first district!?! I wondered how long it would be and blanked out until Luke pinched my arm to get me to pay attention to the teacher again .
"You will be staying inside the first district this time and this time each pair will be working in a shop for one week . The points you will get will depend on your performance results from your employer . " Daniel told us in a serious tone .
When we left the classroom, Ellen whispered in my ear, "I guess we're not going to other districts this time . "
I knew what she meant . Ever since the last incident, the school was afraid of more unexpected situations that may occur in other districts . This was probably why they had our practical assignment in the first district .
This was just like a part-time job . I was pretty confident that I could do well on this assignment because I was accustomed to receiving customer service in the third district (which seemed pretty easy to reciprocate) .
By the time Luke and I went to our dorm, there was a special message that popped up from the marble which projected news about our assignment .
New Message:
Rika and Luke is to report to the ABC International Corp . of the First District by 1PM .
ABC International Corp . of the First District? That was a pretty long name for a company . I had never heard of that company before within my stay in the first district .
Since I didn't know what it meant, I asked Luke, "Have you ever heard of the ABC International Corp . of the First District?"
Luke sighed before answering, "It's one of the companies that the Monete family owns that does business in high end accessories and clothing . "
Wait . The Monete family? Monete . . . that name did sound very familiar, but I could not recall where I heard it .

"What do you mean by the Monete family? Who is the Monete family?" I asked trying to confirm my suspicions .
Luke started to frown as he stared at me like I was a hopeless person in bewilderment .
"Did you forget the name of your classmate that you see almost everyday? It's Alex . Alex of the Monete family . " Luke answered disapprovingly .
Ahhh . No wonder that name seemed really familiar . This brought back memories when we were partnered together . Alex did bring up his family name many times on the first day while trying to drag me into studying .
If this company was owned by Alex's family, I could not imagine the many strict protocols that would come with it, knowing Alex's personality .
I hoped this field assignment would not be as unfortunate as last time, anticipating it would resemble something like a part-time job in my past life .
