Not having one clue about the remaining subjects, Tom decided to go through Theo's memories and see if he had experiences or knowledge relating to them.

Noticing Tom's strange expression the reception lady became worried. Used to students picking subjects within seconds, she couldn't help but think that all of Tom's expected subjects were taken.

Pushing the brim of her glasses she explained her reason.

"I'm sorry none of these subjects are what you expected honey. Since you didn't come to our official induction day the day before the school holidays last year I can only fill you in these subjects. I'll also add in that within the first two weeks subjects do change between students."

Pointing out the subjects one by one she started to explain each class to the best of her ability.

"Horticulture, you'll be gardening, growing plants, learning about plants needs, landscape design and produce marketing."

"Citizenship is about politics, human rights, media, government and the legal system."

"Chemistry's a fun one, You'll be learning about acids and bases, atomic structure, the periodic table, chemical bonds, and chemical reactions.

"Economics is a hard one hmm, I think it's a great subject for your future."

Noticing the reception lady's feint smile,Tom realized that she avoided saying that it was just about money.

Through Theo's memories, Tom had a rough idea of the subjects. Hearing the reception lady's detailed description, Tom wanted to hear about her views and descriptions on the subjects adding more details other than Theo's biased memories.

Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.

Noticing his thoughts drifting off Tom continued listening intently.

"I done textiles back when I was your age, I made cute little sweaters. I think you learn more about an apparel approach in this day and age.

"and the last subject is learning Korean language which is self explanatory."

Noticing the reception ladies expectant gaze Tom quickly told her the two subject he decided to pick.

Recalling Theo's memories Tom noticed that he was passionate about one of the subjects, out of respect for the person who gave him the opportunity to live a new life Tom decided to pick that subject.

After picking out his own choice of a subject the reception lady reached out towards a newly printed paper and passed it towards Tom.

Doing these actions Tom noticed her slight wink towards him.

"Honey, don't you lose those times tables, if you do you'll have to pay a dollar for another copy."

After thanking the lady, Mr Nelson headed over towards Tom with Ryan dragging his feet after him.

"Theodore, I'll be taking my leave.

I was expecting to be able to show you around the school because of my past years teaching here. But through my inquiries my request was deemed beyond regulations. Therefore I've scheduled my ride to come now.

Looking back and forth at Tom and Ryan, Mr Nelson continued.

"You two have a great first day at school, I'll be seeing you two back at Hilton."

"I'll try" Ryan replied under his breath.

Hearing Mr Nelson, Tom reached out his hand giving a firm handshake.

"Once again thank you for giving me this opportunity Sir."

During these actions, Tom spotted Ryan rolling his eyes.

Noticing this, Tom's opinion on the guy became slightly worse.

Upon leaving through the door Mr Nelson held it open for another figure before leaving.

Tom could still count the amount of people that he had interacted within Theo's body with his hands.

And this person was one of them.
