Instead of jumping with joy after hearing of the supposed good news, Jet couldn’t help but fall into his sea of sadness upon returning to the Academy. According to him, he was very expectant that he will be the one leaving the Academy tonight, and he believed that his family felt the same way.
With much excitement, he even started to pack his things early on, so that he could leave as early as possible upon hearing of his exit. But upon hearing the public’s decision, he couldn’t help but tell his co-Scholars that Sheng needed his position more than he does.
According to him, the source of his eagerness to leave the Academy is primarily his family. He kept on saying that his family needed financial support—his financial support for that matter--something that he couldn’t provide them while staying inside the Academy.
His dilemma, on the other hand, was that he couldn’t be firm with his decision to give up because he was somehow concerned that this move may disappoint his supporters. Aside from that, he also admitted that doesn’t want to be labeled a quitter.
Since Jet seemed to be problematic, Teacher Monet and Headmaster Ryan Cayabyab decided to comfort him. Direk Joey was also invited to join them, but he declined. His last words before actually walking out the Academy door expressed great displease on what was happening.
Inside the boys’ room, the two Mentors made their way towards Jet. Headmaster Ryan did most of the talking. He tried his best to get Jet out of his overwhelming emotion.
