While deciding on whether to go over or not, he stood there, turning in circles.

"I would like everyone to gather together, so we can speak about today's tasks, we also have two newcomers in our session which I would like all of you to meet the session teacher said."

"Does that mean a student had a test for the elite class, no one said anything about that and moreover school just resumed today, how is that possible?" came from the crowd of students.

"No test had taken place and no one also got promoted, a set of twins joined our school newly, and they will be the one joining our session, answered the teacher."

"Please let it not be who I am thinking about" prayed Aurielle silently to herself.

"I bet it's your new admirer, Aurielle, giggled Latisha to her friend. This school year is definitely going to be a very remarkable one indeed" she said with mischief dancing around her eyes.

"Good afternoon everyone, we are Lucien and Lorena, and we would be joining the singing session from today onwards", Lorena introduced herself while walking into the class with her brother.

Unfortunately, there are students who felt threatened about these two new students, who got into the elite class without having to prove themselves. Students in the elite class had to often pass a trial to remain in the session because they had to represent and carry the image of the school. Having two new students simply meant that old students who weren't good enough were going to be demoted.

"Excuse Mr Andrew, how is it possible for them to join the session without having a test?" asked a girl with dark brown eyes and light blond hair, seemingly not so happy with Lorena's smile. We all know that the only way of getting through into the elite session is passing the trial, however school just resumed today, and we didn't get any information about any trial taking place. Moreover, I have never heard of new students coming into an elite class without going through any trial, we all had to do our best to prove ourselves. It is unfair for some certain people to claim spots without having to do anything for it."

"Lucien and Lorena weren't just allowed into the session without having to prove themselves, they had a trial in presence of the school principal, the head teacher and the founder of our school, if you have a different opinion to theirs, you are welcome to share your thoughts with them", Mr Andrew answered the brown eyed girl.

"My sister and I don't mind singing to prove that we are worthy of this class, she is right about stating her rights and opinion, however I will not accept someone labeling us as thieves. You don't anything about us, don't go around talking bullshit, I hope everyone understands this, forgive my rudeness, but I may be very uncivilized sometimes."

"OMG Aurielle isn't he cool? I wonder how his voice sounds, I would love to hear him sing" Tisha squeaked to her friend.

"I don't mind asking them to allow you to sing with them, I mean, the both of you will make a wonderful couple on stage," Aurielle replied.

"I'll pass on that one, didn't you notice the glares he was sending at me today during class, I bet it's because he didn't get to sit beside you. A scholar has to be able to recognize incoming dangers which might endanger their life."

"You are exaggerating, Tisha."

"Alright, everyone, please listen attentively. There is an event coming up, and all students will be offered the chance to participate.

It is an international singing competition, numerous schools around the world have been chosen to take part. There is going to be a selection of student who will be sent to represent the school."

" Excuse me, Mr. Andrew, what genre of music is expected of us?" asked a dark skin boy with pink colored hair.

" Every genre is accepted there are no specializations or exceptions, the name of the event is the "international blooming voice". Officially, two representatives will be chosen from our school. The winner will be offered the title blooming voice and will sign a contract with the phoenix's voice academy, which is a subsidiary of our school. "

"Wow! That's a very huge opportunity for us to get a contract and get famous", the students whispered among themselves, truly fascinated with the offers presented before them.

"Everyone who is interested in taking part in the contest should stay behind after today's class is over. I have chosen a song which will be practiced for the next sessions to come, it is called "fox rain". However, let us begin with exercising your voice, I am sure most of your voices must have turned rusty and dusty after not practicing for a whole 7 weeks", grumbled Mr. Andrew, while giving them the side eye

This made most of the students feel guilty as they were offered the chance to practice in their summer holidays, but they had wasted their time doing less reasonable things or traveling, which of course was the most important.

"We will start by taking a deep breath-breathe in, breathe out, loosen your jaws, exhale deeply. Everyone should do a lip thrill, support the corner of your mouth and your cheeks with your fingertips, do this your 5 minutes and afterward, we shall begin with "Le Secret" to deepen your practice. The teacher began to sing as the students sang after him:

Je veux que le matin l'ignore

Le nom que j'ai dit à la nuit

Et qu'au vent de l'aube, sans bruit

Comme un larme il s'évapore

Je veux que le jour le proclame

L'amour qu'au matin j'ai caché

Et sur mon coeur ouvert penché

Comme un grain d'encens il l'enflamme

Je veux que le couchant l'oublie

Le secret que j'ai dit au jour

Et l'emporte avec mon amour

Aux plis de sa robe pâlie!

"Once more, loudly, pour your souls into it", Mr. Andrew said to the class, not quite satisfied with their performance."

The class sang "Le Secret" 10 times in a row till Mr Andrew was satisfied and ended the afternoon session.

Most of the students hated this song because it was a punishment Mr. Andrew always made them sing anytime he was pissed at them. They happily packed their stuff and left the room as if they were fleeing for their lives.

While preparing to leave, the teacher walked towards Loren and Lucien and asked them" I hope you both are coming along with the lesson, I am quite surprised that you both knew the song and could sing along. "

"Thank you for your warm welcome, Mr Andrew! I really enjoyed the practice, I can't wait till our next lesson, we always had singing lessons at home and our teacher practiced this song with us on and often," Lorena answered him with smiles beaming all over her face.

"Well, it was quite ok," Lucien told him.

" I am happy to hear that, if you have any questions concerning our session, Aurielle and Latisha are the best ones to ask, they are my best pupils", Mr Andrew said brimming with pride.

"Thank you very much and have a nice day, Mr Andrew," Lorena told him while running after her brother, who dashed out of the class all of a sudden.

"Lucien hold your feet right there or else, I'll throw my shoes on your head," she shouted running furiously behind him.

"I am sorry tweenie sweetheart, but I have got to go," he yelled back at her. Tell Aunty Helena I will be coming home late.

"Don't you dare move one more inch, Lucien, or else I will tell Aurielle about your secret".

Screeeeeeeeech, the sound of his shoes made as he stopped abruptly, which sounded throughout the whole hall, making the siblings receive more stares from the students standing in the hallway.

Name of song: "Le Secret" Gabriel Faure
