Choice: Ask about their thoughts on Eitoku.
"So, uhm, what do you think of Eitoku?" you ask trying to continue the small talk as you both walk to the cafeteria. Part of you, a small part, hoped against reason, that they were also perhaps a scholarship student.
"It is what it is? I mean, most of students here are snobs. Not to mention the wealth hierarchy thing they have here. It's like its own little caste system you could say. It's pretty annoying. The more wealthy you are, the more you can get away with stuff because mommy and daddy can pay off the school with 'donations.' Some don't even have to wear uniforms! I would honestly would have preferred going to a normal boarding school than this place."
Well, that hadn't really been what you were expecting, but you learned more a bit about school life here than what was presented on the pretty booklet that was provided to you and your parents. Surely the people you've met today aren't jerks like that if they find out you're not rich or famous? Daichi had made that comment, but he hadn't told you to buzz off afterwards. That meant something right?
"This must be your first year here then, asking that type of question," Kaoru continues. "I already know you're a scholarship student because I googled your surname and found it wasn't connected to any one wealthy of famous. You do that with anyone's name here and you're going to get some results like that. Before you get all offended I googled you, I wanted to be prepared if I had to deal with a spoiled brat for a roommate. I'll tell you I'm honestly relieved. I'm not a scholarship student like yourself, but I'm what you would call 'new money.' My dad's business boomed and my parents wanted to fit in better with the rich society so I get sent off here to make 'friends' with other students here."
"Honestly," they sigh, "It's been a nightmare. I don't have any interest in making friends with snobs who only care about what designer you're wearing and what your parent's gross income in as well as your allowance."
"O-Oh," you stutter out, not sure what exactly to say to that. They were glad you weren't one of those they dislike, but what they were telling you worried you.
"Don't worry! If anyone hassles you, just tell me," Kaoru says after seeing your worried expression.
You both reach the cafeteria and enter. You had been here for a tour earlier and had thought it was way too extravagant for a cafeteria, and returning you still felt that way. Unlike normal schools with generic and cheap tables and chairs bought in bulk in dim colors, these were all high-end wood tables with matching cushioned chairs and tablecloths. You didn't go down a lunch line with a tray here. No, you sat down at a table and ordered from a menu!
You anxiously follow after Kaoru who leads the way to a smaller table next to a window, sitting down and picking up a menu. You do the same and within sixty seconds a waiter is there asking for your order.
What will you order?
