I thought for a moment.
"At the rate I'm going, how long will it take me to become a first tier?"
Instructor Chrissie thought for a moment then answered.
"How old are you right now, Alex?"
It was at this moment I remembered that I had just turned ten years old five weeks ago.
I sighed, it was sort of depressing to think that, it felt like yesterday that I was in the Shampa Estate being a nuisance to my parents. I kind of wish for those days to come back, but I know that can never happen.
"I turned ten five weeks ago."
She nodded in response.
"Oh, then happy belated birthday."
I shook my head.
"I try not to be reminded of how long I've been in this god-forsaken academy. Instructor Chrissie, I'd like to humbly request that we make our whole Q/A session shorter, with no disrespect intended."
Instructor Chrissie nodded
"Sure."
I waved my hand in impatience.
"Okay then, let's move along quickly. I don't want anyone to have a chance to see you here."
