If my guess is real then he's too young, probably in his 23rd, I guess.
"Yeah, sort of." He answered.
But looking around, he's the only person I saw not wearing a suit in here. Well, all I saw were men in black except him.
"Well, thank you by the way, for the opportunity. I wanted to work for the government in the future." I leaned closer and whispered "Especially in a secret organization." I wanted to know many things such as, if aliens were real, if and the others if.
I wanted to know what are the secrets they have been keeping, remembering the dreams I had at the plane, I think the government knows why it would happen or it is already happening but people are not aware especially me. I have to be aware.
He laughed "If you choose to be here and you graduated from the Geniuses Academy probably you will end up here."
I smiled at the thought.
"By the way, I dropped by to tell you something. You will join the entrance examination, right?" He asked.
"Yeah," I answered honestly.
Of course, how could I enter the school without the entrance exam?
"Kelly, the world is full of secrets-" he started.
"I know. That is one of the reasons I am here." And I know that he knows everything about those secrets. That is their advantage in working in a secret organization of the government.
"People are unique Kelly and the Geniuses Academy is a school of special students with unique abilities and incredible talents." He explained.
I gasped "Are you saying that..."
He nodded "Powers are real... and you're not alone."
"How did you know I have a… power?" I asked, still in shock.
Since when did he know about my power?
"The moment you helped me. By the way, that is not the point. As I was saying, the examination is not just to determine who will be chosen to enter the school but to determine where you belong." His face held seriousness.
"What do you mean by that?" I asked, feeling the curiosity building up on me.
He looked at his watch "I don't have time to explain everything but I'll give you some brief explanation..." He said in a hurry "As I said, the examination will determine where the students belong. All of you will be examined to see what course you fit in."
My forehead furrowed in curiosity wanting him to continue "The Geniuses Academy is composed of three courses-" he added.
"What are those courses?" I cut him off and can't wait for an answer.
"The Fighter Course is composed of the students with the best fighting skills. Genius Course is composed of students with the smartest brain. While the Special Course is composed of students having special powers." He explained.
"Oh my gosh! Really!? Will they also determine my course? What if they discover that... I-" I frantically stated but he cut me off.
"They will, with the use of the examination."
I stopped the moment I heard those words and now I'm becoming hesitant whether I'll join or not.
I looked down, sighing "But, I told my dad I'll hide it the best that I can..." my voice held sadness and defeat.
"Well, if you want, I can help you." I immediately looked up to see his now smiling face.
"How!?" I asked excitedly.
OMG! I still have a chance!
He took something from his pocket "Here, eat this, minutes before your Body Scanner Test." He lends me a...
"Mentos!?" I asked in surprise but suddenly I got a vision of me in a glass tube with a scientist outside the tube looking right at me.
What was that? Is that what he calls… Body Scanner Test?
He laughed "It's not just a Mentos, okay? It's more than that..." then he turned serious "It will freeze your brain for half an hour, just enough time to complete the test." He stated and then looked at his watch. "I think I have to go now."
I smiled gratefully at him "Thank you so much!"
"Well, I owe you my life and that's the only thing I could help you with." He stands up, not leaving a smile on his face.
Then he turned his back and started walking away.
"It means so much to me! Thank you!" I yelled to his retreating back.
I saw him raise his hand "See you whenever I see you!" He yelled back and I laughed.
"Yes sir!" I shouted.
Suddenly, I remembered... Oh my gosh!! I forgot to ask his name!! So stupid of me! I got so fond of talking that I forgot to ask his name.
Aish, the next time I'll see him, I will ask his name.
"Ow, sweetie. I'm sorry it took longer. We got fond of talking with him." My mom and dad are back taking me out of my thoughts.
I faced them "It's fine mom. By the way, how is it?" I asked.
"We just got your application form!" Mom exclaimed, waving the papers and my dad laughed from my mother’s childish action.
I smiled.
"He also explained to us what you have to do and where exactly you will go on your examination day. But for now, let's take a rest." Dad said and I nodded.
"Yup, let's go sweetie." Mom said then she continued when I got near her "Mr. Malaya is too kind, he already reserved a hotel room for us and everything is at his expense."
"Really!?" I asked surprised but suddenly felt disappointed "I wasn't even there to thank him personally." I said.
"Mr. Malaya wasn't there sweetie. It was only his assistant, he said that today, Mr. Malaya got some important appointment. But, he assured us that next time, Mr. Malaya will meet us personally." Mom smiled weakly, I could see that she wanted to meet him and thank him personally.
I nodded. How come Mr. Malaya wasn't there if he knew that we were coming today? Well, they said that he got some important appointments.
