I stood in front of the closed door. It was unlocked.
But my hands hesitated from opening it. I looked up once again at the nameplate of the room.
1-A.
One can say this classroom was equivalent to that of grade 7 on Earth. It was a norm here; children upto grade 6, by Earth standards, were to receive education in the private nurseries and tuitions.
Only after that can one apply for the nationwide examination, pass it and join academies according to their national rank.
And this academy...the Sparkhaven Academy was one of the top choices among millions of aspiring students, naturally.
Steadying my gait, I opened the door with a little push. A middle aged professor was lecturing the class and writing something on the blackboard. However his words trailed as he saw me at the doorway.
Same with the students as each pair of eyes turned towards me. A hush fell over the room.
