First, he thought something off about the quote but since it is just a printed quote, he didn't think too much and put his thoughts on the flowers because black tulips don't represent love. They represent power and strength.

Then, what does that mean? Does she mean to say that he is strong or did she only send it because it was his favorite color? While it is only known to his friends, it wasn't a secret as he always wears black t-shirts other than school timings. Moreover, his power is also dark. So, the flowers might also represent him.

But why did she send a unique one on the sixth day? Is it perhaps, a different sender? As his identity as the foster son of the Divine Physician was well known in the city, he didn't feel it is suspicious that this girl knows his address.

For the entire evening, Azzy kept thinking. He didn't even eat his dinner properly. He thought of the images of the six flowering plants that appeared one after another. Is there any deeper meaning behind them or were they just different flowers?

The Reaper who was watching his thoughts nodded to himself, "well, I guess you need my help."

"Azrael, once you read the names of the flowers, you will find your answer." The Reaper threw a hint to him.

Upon hearing it, Azzy took a notebook and wrote them one by one.

Rose; Lilac; Camellia; Iris; Alstroemeria; Tulip;

"Chronos, what am I looking for, anyway? A name? There are girls named four of these flowers in our academy. But, this looked like the work of a single person. So, I guess there must be a hidden message. Am I right?"

The Reaper let out a laugh as he replied, "if you concentrate on it, you should be able to get it by now. Anyway, I'll give another hint. Sometimes, black is referred to as ebony too."

"Ebony?" Azzy frowned as he observed the names. He recited them again and again until suddenly, something caught his eyes.

R, L, C, I, A, E

He rearranged the letters.

"Claire?" Azzy eyes were widened in shock. "Is it Claire, the one who sent them to me?"

He then remembered something else. "Gideon… He was in this too?"

Four days ago, on the Propose day;

In the evening, after sorting out all the documents, Matilda left for the dormitory.

Lonely Azzy was reading the details. Aside from the usual confessions, there were also other cases like a few lovers getting caught while kissing each other within the campus, a couple of senior boys trying to force their crushes into accepting their confession, and also a few cases of usual bullying.

Nearly 100 documents are before him and he should decide on who needs to be punished and who is innocent. For example, if a boy/girl confesses to someone, then, if that someone accepts the confession, both of them are liable to punishment for breaking the rules or else, only the one who declared the confession.

Meanwhile, Vajra sits in the corner by itself, reading a language book. Azzy ordered it to absorb the knowledge from the books so that the Reaper can transfer the knowledge to him later.

Considering how the black wolf is a Celestial grade spirit, it was easy for it to read the human language.

Nearly at 4:30 p.m., Gideon arrived there. When Azzy asked him, the latter replied that he was on his way to go outside to play some arcade games and dropped by to see whether he was still busy.

"I'm only halfway done. At this rate, it will be 6 before I complete with this." Azzy said to him, feeling tired.

As Gideon offered help, Azzy didn't hesitate to agree with it despite Gideon being an outsider for the Disciplinary Committee.

Under Azzy's instructions, Gideon helped in writing the punishments. The progress now picked up.

For a while, Gideon was talking about usual things but suddenly, he took Azzy by surprise with a question, "What do you think of Claire? Do you like her?"

"Eh?" Azzy almost slipped his hand by the sudden surprise.

Before Azzy replied, Gideon quickly added to his question, "How do you feel if Claire is the one who sent those flowers?"

"Claire sent those flowers?" Azzy asked him. While his facial expression might appear indifferent, he was curious inside.

In response, Gideon waved his hands, "Nah, she's too busy with studying for final exams. She didn't even have the time to chat with us much less going outside, buy them, and preparing all of these. I'm just asking what if."

For some reason, Azzy felt a little bit disappointed that it wasn't from her. Throwing away his thoughts, he answered, "I'll be happy."

"I see…" Gideon let out a smile and quickly changed the topic, "oh, yeah, I forgot to even ask you about it. Now that we have signed the contracts and officially became members of WAMO, we need to go to headquarter for reporting, right? Shall we go on Sunday since all of us will be free?"

Present Day;

"Recently, Gideon is always the first to arrive at the classroom. He might be helping Claire to arrange the plants all this while…" Azzy got a little bit angry, thinking that he was being betrayed by his best friend but when he thought of Claire, his thoughts were shifted to the reality of the situation and his heartbeat suddenly rose for a moment.

"If it is Claire, then, considering tomorrow is Valentine's Day, will she propose to me directly? Then, how should I respond to her? Currently, I don't think I have romantic thoughts towards her. But someday, she'll be my wife. Did my future self reveal it to me for this moment? But then again, thinking of a future with her doesn't seem that bad to imagine.

Then, what if I reject her? Will I change the future timeline?

No… no… I will return to my timeline soon. Now, we are of the same age but when I return, she'll be aged. What's to say that I will even develop any feelings? Moreover, what if she will fall in love with someone else? But the future says… Argh… This damn future self of mine…" To clear his frustration, Azzy meditated for a while. Later, he slowly drifted into a peaceful sleep.

*knock* knock* knock* 

The continuous knocks on the door woke Azzy from his sleep.

*Yawn* "hmm, isn't it only 6." Azzy stepped down from the bed and dragged his body to the door to open it.

As the door opened, he found it was Gideon. "Morning, Azzy." Gideon seemed excited.

"What are you doing here at this hour?" Azzy asked him lazily.

Gideon reminded him about their visit to Silver City. Azzy widened his eyes immediately. "Does that mean everyone is here?"

"Yup, Mia doesn't want to come but Claire dragged her along though. Everyone is waiting for you downstairs. Fresh up and come down."

After a few minutes, Azzy comes downstairs to find Gideon and Snivy are playing a racing video game, competing against each other. Both of them seemed to be in their own world.

Mia and Affea seemed to be in a heavy discussion of politics early in the morning.

After greeting the two of them, Azzy asked about Claire.

"She's outside, plucking the flowers," Mia replied to him. Azzy nodded to her and walked straight.

When he stepped outside, he saw Claire was plucking a chrysanthemum.

"Morning, Claire…" As soon as he called out her name, she turned her head and returned the greetings. There was a look of excitement as well as nervousness on her face.

"Your garden looks great." She commented and turned towards the flowers. Placing her hand on a red rose, she asked, "I like the smell. I can pluck this, right?"

"Of course, it is yours after all," Azzy replied without hesitation. He then started to walk.

"Eh?" Claire suddenly felt her heartbeat quickened. "What do you mean by that?"

As he almost reached her, Claire sensed his presence and turned around once again. 

When their eyes meet, Azzy opened his mouth, "I solved your puzzle, Claire. I know that it was you that send all of those flowers."

Taking a deep breath, Claire stood up on her feet and faced him. They were standing only a meter apart now. Despite feeling embarrassed, Azzy was trying to look straight at her.

Biting her lip, Claire raised her arm. A bunch of different flowers was seen in her hands. "Happy Valentine's Day, Rael."
