Celeste actually looked at Euphemia in shock when she laid it out to her so bluntly. She had never considered the fact that she might be handing to someone such personal information. Maybe it was because she had never given such importance before to those little details, considering them mundane and something other people would see as unimportant. Like who'd care if she had a hair appointment at 5 next Wednesday, or that she had to pick up Azure from some activity next week?. All that had not seemed like something anyone would want to know, or so she had thought.

"I will talk to the office, and see if anyone turned it in?" she conceded hesitantly, now also a tiny bit worried that maybe someone had found it and was somehow interested in her latest bread pudding recipe or when she had her next student interview.

"Perhaps that would be for the best." She said with a nod. "In the meantime, I would also suggest you keep a closer eye on your possessions."

After speaking, she frowned a moment at Celeste's expression. Her reaction left her feeling a little guilty.

"I apologise if I have caused you any duress." She eventually added. "I do not mean to worry you. I am sure no one intends to cause you any harm, I am merely suggesting caution."

"No. You are right. I should be a lot more careful with my things," Celeste said when Euphemia began to apologize for upsetting her. "I really had never considered the implications before today," she told her assistant, feeling a bit sheepish now as well because she had just shrugged such a thing off as unimportant.

"By the way, how is everything going with you lately?" Celeste asked, realising that they hadn't had a moment to sit down and chat recently.

"Things have been satisfactory for me as of late." She said with a short nod. "Though I must admit I've been concerned somewhat with the upcoming exams."

She frowned a little bit. Euphemia had certainly been doing much better in terms of academics, especially compared to when she needed Celeste to tutor her way back when she'd first been enrolled at the academy. But her first year of high school was almost over, and she did feel just a tiny bit anxious to know how she was doing. She needed to know she was adapting well, and this would probably be a good sign.

"Oh?" Celeste said, immediately putting aside her own concerns for the time being when Euphemia mentioned she was feeling a bit apprehensive about her upcoming exams.

"Is there anything that I can help you out with?" she asked her assistant, genuinely interested in the young woman's well-being and wanting to make sure she was okay.

Euphemia shook her head.

"I believe you have done enough, Ms Forestier." She said. "I am not sure how else I can prepare, you have done plenty to help me catch up already."

Besides, she was likely to be just as busy around this time of the year. Best not to take up any unnecessary time, she figured.

"For now, perhaps we should head out? The next class is starting soon."
