I opened the door and walked in and at first, and my eyes beamed at the sight in front of me.
Wow! The room was beautiful.
I strained my eyes more, searching for the prince, and there I found him, beside the window. He held a mug with him.
Oh! Geez…..he looked really…cute.
He wore a short and white shirt which really fitted him in the morning weather.
“Good morning, my prince”, I bowed my head, my heart racing so fast.
He turned from the window and sipped from the mug which probably contained tea or coffee.
“Yeah, morning” he mumbled casually and sipped again.
I looked around the room and discovered there were lots of equipments there already – burner, volumetric flask, crucible, spring balance…..just everything we’d probably be needing.
“Okay. So, we can go straight to the point? I’m having an appointment in less than an hour”, Prince Nathan said as he started walking closer, his steps bold.
Wait….what??
One hour time???
H’ll! There’s no way we’d be done by then.
“Y….Yes, my prince” I just nodded, anyway.
I walked to where an empty table was and dropped my bag, I opened it and brought out the manual.
“Uh….my prince, we’ll need to…” I turned as I spoke, but surprisingly, I found him staring keenly at me and my words were cut from my mouth.
Huh? Why’s he staring that way at me?
I furrowed my brows as our eyes locked, but I noticed his eyes were actually on my hair.
“M…My Prince..?” My voice trailed off.
I was uncomfortable with the way his eyes were on me.
He blinked rapidly and turned away, then sipped from his coffee.
Geez! What was that?
I itched my head and turned back to my book.
Okay…..I really need to focus. The better I focus, the earlier I can get out of here.
I took the manual to the table where the lab equipments were.
“Your name is Danica, right?” I suddenly heard the prince ask and I lifted my eyes to look at him.
He was still starring keenly at me.
“Y….Yes, my prince” i answered calmly, and he nodded and turned to back me.
‘Danica” i heard him mumble.
Oh God! What’s he thinking about? Please, don’t tell me there’s a problem.
I gulped nervously and tried to focus on the manual and what needed to be done.
A knock came on the door immediately and I couldn’t explain the relief I felt, knowing I wouldn’t be alone with the prince. G©sh! What am I even thinking?
Its just….the way he stares at me makes me so very nervous.
I looked behind at the door which was already opening and….oh! It was princess Mabel.
She walked in and her eyes caught with mine. Wow! She was looking so beautiful.
“Nathan, where did you say you kept the journal?” She asked tiredly as she came closer.
“Its close to the wardrobe, Mabel. I told you I’d be busy in here” the prince replied.
“Good morning, my princess”, I bowed my head when she got to where I was.
“Yeah…Good morning”, she stopped to look at me.
“Hold on….aren’t you the lady we almost knocked down the other day?” She asked and I nodded quickly.
“Oh! Wow. What a coincidence” she smiled at me.
I thought she was about walking away, but she came to me and touched my hair.
“Wow! You have a pretty long hair” she said as she touched the tip.
Oh geez.
“Thank you, ma’am” I smiled and tried to focus on the manual in front of me.
I didn’t even want to look at Prince Nathan. No, I couldn’t try it. I just tried as much as possible to keep my eyes on the book.
“Hm” she sighed and walked away, making me nervous as Nathan and I were the only ones left in the room again.
I actually had a feeling he wouldn’t want to participate much in the practicals, so I just went ahead to do the basics myself.

Nathan’s Pov:
There was something about her. Yes, something familiar.
Her hair being dark and long, the way it swung in the air when she flipped, and the way she walked. It was all familiar
And…her name was Danica. Danica.
Could this be a mere coincidence?
I brought my phone from my pocket and searched for a particular number.
