So, without further ado and too much delaying, Diamond took the bucket bag from Ruby, which didn’t seem to be heavier than the laptop bag, and hooked arms with Ruby as they headed for the building.
As for Garnet, despite maintaining her pace alongside the sisters. She was busy checking the photos, which were pouring into her gallery.
And it was all thanks to the invisible drone of Diamond which she didn’t forget to bring. As she wanted to document the first day that Ruby was going to university, she was going all out.
Andrea was in charge of controlling the drone while Garnet was in charge of receiving enough content to last for weeks once edited well.
On the other hand, Ruby ignored other students who kept on calling her sister’s name as she chatted with Diamond.
With the noise her sister had caused on the first day, she had a foreboding inkling that her sister wouldn’t be coming to her school as much as she wanted.
It was already a blessing that she was able to come and send her off. After all, Diamond was busy and had a lot of things that needed to be taken care of. And yet she woke up very early to accompany her.
And knowing that her sister might not be accompanying her much in the future, she decided to hoard her all to herself. As for the students who recognized Diamond and were eager to have a word, they should make an appointment first.
With the two sisters not minding others, it didn’t take long before they were in the place they should be.
Members of the student council who were part of the BA faculty and in charge of helping the freshmen warmly welcomed the sisters and led them into the hall where the orientation was going to take place.
Diamond refused to sit in the front. After all, with how short her dress was, did they want to make her uncomfortable?
As a result, she and her sisters sat in the second row and shorty the others’ seats were filled as well.
Starting from eight, the teachers in charge began to enter the hall one by one and take their seats. At around half past eight, the orientation started.
And just looking at how they were at it, Diamond was reminded that things never change, no matter where you are.
Orientations were still the most boring things a student could attend. But thankfully, despite the boredom she suffered, she got to learn more about the school.
For example, there were a lot of sports and clubs the university was offering. So, the students can’t only focus on their studies but have time to refresh and pursue their hobbies as well.
The studies were flexible. The school offers both full and part-time studies to students.
The day starts at eight from Monday to Friday and ends at four in the afternoon.
Unless there is an emergency lecture during the weekend, the students don’t have to go to class. So, the weekend was used to rest, and do assignments and those with club activities, sports or part-time jobs could do so freely.
Every lecture was one hour long, so in a day, a student could have a maximum of six lectures. But the minimum a student could have done daily was three to four.
In other words, there was no rest for the student, which was something Diamond agreed with. When you keep students idle for a long time, their dirty minds tend to go far.
If she didn’t have too much time on her hands back then, would she have found time to go out and seduce a second-rich-generation scumbag?
This orientation lasted until eleven to noon there before the students and the guardians were released.
Diamond sighed with relief upon hearing that and couldn’t wait to go around and see her baby sister’s class and possibly the club that she would be joining. After all, if the freshmen didn’t use the opening day for that, they wouldn’t have too much free time on their hands.
The top three universities were serious when it came to students’ academic issues. Why waste too much time trying to make them adjust when they could be spending that time learning more?
So, on the way to see the class, Ruby and Diamond got separated, but it wasn’t that serious as Ruby was chatting with a classmate who had been sitting next to her in the hall.
As for Diamond, she had spotted some familiar faces she got acquainted with when she came to register for Ruby the previous week.
"You look prettier and classy than Friday, dear. How do you do it?" another woman, whom she could still recall clearly as her mouth was so capable of spewing sweet words and her demeanor very graceful and approachable, asked curiously, with no hint of malicious intent in her eyes.
The other few guardians whom Diamond was acquainted with as well joined in the fray, and Diamond could only respond helplessly without minding her time with Ruby getting stolen by them.
As she looked at these women, she couldn’t help but recall a certain business of hers which, for a moment, she had nearly forgotten. Because no one in 2079 had ordered and bought anything, the business was nearly forgotten. And it was the beauty cream business.
Before the year ended, her customers had purchased large quantities, which was why they were still quiet even now that January was halfway through.
So now that she recalled it, Ruby was for a moment left to her devices as Diamond began to entertain the ladies. In her eyes, they were going to become her loyal customers.
So why should she grumble?
Besides, it wasn’t like they were calling her vulgar names. They were being polite and treated her pretty nicely.
Maybe it was because she was pretty or rich. Whichever reason they were being like that, she didn’t care. As long as she gets what she wants at the end of the day, she is cool with anything.
With that thought in mind, Diamond became the center of attraction as she shared her tips, which she was certain would be bringing her money by the time she was done that day.
"You see, the procedures are a bit too much, but for now, since we are in a public setting, I will share with you what I usually do daily. As for the others, I will share in our group. You are all there, right?" she stated and asked as she looked at the ladies to confirm.
"We are there, darling."
"You can send it all once you are settled."
Seeing them agreeing, Diamond heaved a sigh of relief.
"I am glad to hear that, then. So, it goes like ...."
Honestly, there wasn’t much that Diamond could share with these ladies that could really work. After all, she was someone who took a water pill when she started.
Took more additional pills as time passed and finally received a heavenly divine replenishing art which was currently working as she was speaking. Her physique was a blessing from the deities, so how could she compare with the ladies?
However, there were other things that the ladies could do as well which didn’t require the use of the pills. So, she shared that with them.
" ..... but above all, I use a special concocted medical beauty cream. It’s good for every skin tone and doesn’t cause allergies whatsoever. The cream will make your skin smooth, and lighter and remove any blemishes." after sharing her small tricks she finally went straight to the point.
"Heh! What kind of cream is that?"
"Is it readily available?"
Hearing their eagerness and curiosity towards the cream, how could Diamond let them down?
