Summary:

Athrun Zala is just the typical kind of dad that is such a workaholic and never attends in any of her daughter's school activities. One day, a fairy cursed him and he turns back into his 18-year-old self. What will he do? Please R and R!

Chapter Thirteen: Announcement

Four hours had passed since the second day in school for Athrun Zala. Now, he is half-asleep in the lesson of Mr. Dulindal, their Computer Science Teacher. Athrun's gaze shifted at Ezrael who was busy writing down notes. Then he looked at his seatmate, Mark who is drooling and some of his girl classmates staring at him hotly. He sighed. It is hard if you are good looking and at the same time, smart. At the back of his head, he could imagine Yzak contradicting that thought. Unconsciously, he laughed lightly. This made Dulindal stare at him.

"Mr. Schweiger, what is an electronic spread sheet and furthermore, please give us a little background about its history." He snot up a glare.

He stood in front, "Spreadsheet software is commonly used for accounting. The first spreadsheet program is VisiCalc, an abbreviation for the word Visible Calculator designed by Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston. Then, Sorcim designed a better version called the SuperCalc. It was then followed by Lotus 1-2-3 designed by Mitch Kapor and Jonathan Sachs. It was widely used until Microsoft launched its own spreadsheet software called the Microsoft Excel. As of today, its latest version is Microsoft Excel XP."

Dulindal nodded and slammed his book at the table, "Thank you Mr. Schweiger. And now class we wi—"

A sound of clearing a throat was heard through the sound system, obviously belonging to the platinum blonde, Principal Yzak Joule. The voice of his secretary was also audible.

"Good morning everyone." Yzak greeted, "I like to announce the change of school activities and I like to see Ms. Zala and company in my office."

"Now?" Ezrael inquired.

"As in right now!" Yzak tried to adjust his voice to a calm one, as if he will have one like that, "And Mr. Schweiger as well, come to my office right now. Again, this is Principal Joule speaking and saying, have a wonderful day and Godspeed!"

"Ouch." Ezrael rubbed his ear. Yzak sure knows how to fight kids even though he is an adult.

Therefore, the officers went to Principal Joule's office.

Inside Yzak's Office…

Yzak gestured for them four, namely Alex, Athrun, Mark and Ezrael, to sit. "Do you know why did I call you four here?"

Ezrael raised his hand, "For us to do one of your dirty jobs?"

"Some other time." There was a hint of guilt in his voice, "I called you because you four will arranged this year's graduation party and prom."

Some murmurs were heard from the four teenagers.

Alex face him, "Okay."

He smiled a little, "Good. You have three weeks to present your plan to me."

Then the four left the office of Principal Joule.

Alex clang on Athrun's arm, "I'm so excited! How about you, Antoine?"

"Me as well." Came his short reply with a simple smile but she frowned a bit, "Is there something wrong?"

She shook her head, "It's just that dad can't come and I don't really expect him to come to my graduation."

"I see." He felt sad.
