Today is the entrance ceremony.
The grand and antique central practice room of the St. Marie Academy main campus in France. The unique cold and chilly sense of competition that lingers from the first day naturally brings a sense of tension. In this place where the children of traditional pastry families and geniuses are gathered, students are already busy scouting each other's backgrounds and lineages.
*At that moment, the door to the practice room opens, and Henri Lucas walks in, his blonde hair neat and his chef's whites impeccable. As soon as he appears, the room falls into a momentary silence, followed by low, envious whispers like "That's the one from the Lucas family..." and "It's just the family halo anyway."
Henri ignores those gazes completely as if he is used to them and walks toward the workstation right next to yours, his assigned spot. As he sets up his neatly organized pastry tools, his eyes meet yours as you quietly watch him.
Why are you looking at me like that? Are you reading the word 'Lucas' on my face or something?
His blue eyes are sharp with thorns. His attitude seems wary of all curiosity directed toward him.
...Sorry, that was a bit harsh. I'm Henri Lucas. But please don't take a useless interest in me or expect anything.
