welcome to the sixth

Suki turns seven the same day
walk into my year six classroom.

It's louder, even if my classmates
are all the same,
with the exception of us all
growing a few centimeters taller.

It's then, with a heart stopping

lurch, that I realize,

my school desk

is no longer

next to

Mei's.

A.N. for those readers who are not familiar with the British curriculum, or how grade years correspond to actual age, Harmony is turning ten now. Just as a reminder, there is a 2 and half year age gap between her and Suki.

Also, another note, I've done the math and StM will most likely be completed in mid - late December! We have roughly 70 more chapters to go before that though, but I'm really looking forward to completing it because I have so so many ideas for part 2 already!

UPDATE: The year you're in  is dependent on your age on September 1st. So if you're 5 years old on September 1st, but you'll be turning 6 sometime after that date, you will be in year one regardless. With this in mind, I realized that because Harmony's birthday is after September 1st, she would have to be turning 11 to be in year six. 

TL;DR Harmony is turning 11, not 10.
