Danica’s Pov:
My heart skipped immediately.
What problem is she talking about?
“Wh…What is it, Nana?” I asked anxiously and she pushed the door open and walked in.
“The results are out” she said in deep breath.
“The results for the scholarship exams you took”.
My eyes dilated as i gasped and covered my mouth in shock.
Whaaaat???
Thank goodness granny wasn’t around.
“Oh my…Oh my God! Did you check for my name? Was….Was my name there?” I asked, my eyes beaming.
And she nodded.
Oh my God!!
“My name was there???” I squealed.
“Yes. I’d have printed it out for you but…”
I turned around and bit my nails.
Oh God! My name was there?? Meaning….I just gained a scholarship into the Royal High School?
“You….didn’t tell your grandma about it, did you?” She asked and I shook my head negatively and turned to look at her.
“I…I need to see it for myself. I need to print it out. Take me there” I told her and she nodded and we left the house together.

Nathan’s Pov:
“So…you’re assuring me he’s going to be fine?” Mum asked the doctor as they stood in the room with me.
“Yes, your highness. It wasn’t critical. Besides, someone else already treated him before he was brought here to the hospital. So, the person was helpful” the replied and my mind quickly drifted to the strange lady.
It left a sting in my chest that I didn’t know her.
“Okay doctor. If you say so. Thank you so much” mum said.
“You’re welcome, your highness. I’ll be in my office in case you need something else”.
“Of course. Thanks”.
And he left.
Mum sighed and came to sit on the edge of the bed.
“How’re you feeling son?” She asked calmly, her hand on my hair.
“I feel a lot better. You don’t need to worry” I replied.
But that look of perturbance didn’t leave her face.
“Did you see who $tabbed you? Could you recognize any of them?” She asked and I shook my head sideways.
“Those guys were just hoodlums, mum. They were only paid to do whatever they did. There’s a master mind behind it” I replied and she frowned.
“But who would make such an attempt on you? For what reason??
“Ah! I wish we could find him. I just wish we could find the monster behind it. I’ll personally make sure he pays with his life”. She said angrily.
I didn’t say anything to that, but slowly reached for my pocket and brought out the bracelet.
“The lady that saved me….this belongs to her” I said fraily, holding the bracelet up.
Mum stared quietly.
“I need find her, mum. I…I just wanna know who she is. And perhaps, she might have an idea on what happened to me”.
“But…you said she’d ran away, right?” She asked.
“Yes. I think she was just being scared or shy or something. But, I still need to find her. I think this is her name” I stated, staring at the letters – DAN.
“So….how do you intend finding her exactly? What will you do?” She asked and for a moment, I was silent.
Thinking.
“I’ll put it up on media. I’ll let her know I’m looking for her”. I replied and her eyes beamed.
“Are you sure? You really want to do that? She asked and I fixed my eyes on the bracelet and nodded.

Danica’s Pov:
My eyes were glued to the paper as I walked out of the cafe with Nana.
My heart beat rapidly. something that should be a thing of joy to me was now a thing of torment.
I really passed the exams. I just gained scholarship into the Royal High School. I had a possibility of going to school again.
But mum…
She was never going to consent to it. I seriously don’t get why she hates the Royal family that much. And I know she’s never going to let me school there.
She won’t.
“What are you going to do, Dan?” Nana asked and we stopped walking to face each other.
“I really don’t know, Nana. I’m…I’m confused” I said with a glum look, staring down at the paper.
“I really want to go to school. I don’t wanna be one of these ladies who end up learning trade for the rest of their lives. I want to live a better life, Nana. I want to go to school
“Grandma can’t afford my fees. And at the same time, she’d never let me grab this opportunity of schooling on scholarship. She’d never let me go to the Royal High school” I replied sadly and Nana was speechless for a few seconds.
“Ahh! But why doesn’t she like the Royal family, huh? What could he reason be?” She asked, making me wish I had an answer to that question.
I sighed and folded the paper, fixing it into my back pocket.
“I need to hurry home now. Its getting late” I told her, even if the sky was still very bright.
“Okay, then. Mum sent me on another errand. Bye” she replied.
“Bye”.
And she went her way, while I boarded a cab home.

Getting home, I discovered the door was opened.
Huh? Is grandma home already??
I hastened my steps and walked pass the door, to the sitting room.
And I was shocked when I found her there.
Wasn’t she a bit early?
“Granny?” I called, but she didn’t spare ma glance as she focused on what she was doing.
Whaaat???
The first aid box!!!
Oh my God!!!
I’d forgotten to return it to her room.
“Did you make use of this, Danica?” She looked at me and asked.
“Why am I finding bl©©d stains on it?”
