Find your faith

Chapter 56: Subject combination fair

Ethan's POV
Concourse
The concourse was bustling with activity. Many of my juniors were filing around, finding out about the subjects they can take when they became Secondary 3 students too.

Let me break down the plan for 3 Faith (and the one 3 Love) student helper(s) for this fair. I'm in charge of Geography, Crystal and John are right next to me in charge of Literature in English, Iris is in charge of Science representing all Pure Science students, Keira is in charge of POA and Nicole represents A Math.

"What?" I asked my juniors in confusion. "Geography and history are not the same." I passed the junior the geography textbook for him to read, and showed them the volcano we had to do for our geography project. I explained to them things we would learn about once they chose geography as their upper secondary humanities and even had to make a specific disclaimer about how math and science based it was, feeling like biology in some sense.

That was a quartet I was talking to. Half the quartet broke off after that to see my friend's booth. I entertained the remaining duo with their geography related questions.
Crystal's POV
"You have to stay back?" A bunch of people chorused when I answered their question on whether they had to stay back for literature, and I nodded.

"It's a minority subject, unlike those two humanities over there," I explained coolly. "But it's fun." I then spent the next few minutes convincing them why they should take literature and the fun they would have and how sweet their teachers would be. After all, I was taught under the same sweetheart that taught me the previous two years so I knew how wholesome literature is. We were also a tight knit class and never stuck to one group in class. I'm sure as long as my juniors had the passion for literature, they would enjoy it to the fullest with the staying back.
Iris' POV
"So what's the difference between physics and biology?" A junior asked me with life and excitement shown on her face. I showed her the diagrams and started talking about the different things she would learn in the different sciences, reminding her to choose the number of sciences based on overall academic capabilities and her science based on interest. She thanked me and bounced off, chanting about considering triple science. Maybe she really was academically inclined enough for that option, but I also saw her bounce to literature. Was she considering an 8th subject?
Nicole's POV
"Is this the real deal?" A group of juniors chorused as they flipped through the pages of the A Math textbook. I nodded and then explained about the difference between E Math at the upper secondary level and A Math. All of them looked at each other in fear and doubt and back at me.

"Do you think we'll be able to do it?" They asked me.

"Yea, if you bother to practice, you'll be fine," I replied coolly. And that's when the group all ticked down A Math as their 7th subject choice.

I couldn't help but smile. A year ago, we were wide eyed Secondary 2 students exploring our options. A year later, we have stuck to our guns and are shining with the choices we never regretted. I hope to come grow with my friends as we walk towards a brighter future together, with our specially curated subject combinations meant for us.
