Bernadette didn't reply as she got her phone back. Looking into her phone screen, she paused for a moment, wondering if it would be best to give her phone number out after all. After a second, Bernadette hesitantly typed "Bernadette." and sent it to Yael's number. Safety reigned in her eyes after all.
There was always the possibility to raincheck, she decided. It was not that Bernadette cared whether she was seen with Yael or someone out of her social status; most of her time abroad had been spent with strangers that had much less than her in life since she didn't always choose to stay in expensive spots. Yael just didn't seem like the kind to mix with her.
"I hope you have a safe trip home," Bernadette said as she watched Yael step out. She stayed to make sure that she got into the taxi safely before driving away.
In her last year, Bernadette had been left with upper-level degree courses and the thought of a challenge excited her. Her foundations were strong and she was ready for her classes to measure up. There had always been a debate whether to pursue an art degree; thankfully, Olympus' art program focused on developing each students' individual art rather than produce students with the same style.
The class she had taken was one she had been looking forward to, the professor was very well-known in the art world and revered by students. Having reached the classroom door, Bernadette stepped inside and took a seat besides one of her acquaintances.
