The next day was the official start of classes at the University of Maple Grove. With no morning self-study sessions, the first class kicked off at 8:30 am. Flora rolled out of bed at 8:00, hurriedly got herself ready, grabbed breakfast at the cafeteria, and made it to the classroom just in time.
Eilies and Cynthia had already snagged seats by the window in the third row. Flora joined them, dropping two bottles of milk on their desk.
The first class was Advanced Mathematics, taught by a middle-aged man with a balding head. He walked in and immediately called out, “Flora.”
Flora raised her hand, “Here.”
The teacher gave her a quick look and then said, “Roll call is over.”
Flora was puzzled, “???”
The second class was Medical Cell Biology. A sharply dressed female teacher strode in, looking almost giddy.
“Roll call time. Is Flora here?”
Flora raised her hand again.
The teacher nodded, “Alright, roll call is over.”
Flora was left speechless, “…”
As the day went on, it seemed like every teacher started their class with roll call, but they only ever called Flora’s name. Flora’s frustration was evident, while Cynthia was struggling to contain her laughter.
…
After classes, Odelia was heading to the library. As soon as she stepped out of the academic building, she heard a raspy female voice call her name from behind.
