Nathan
I was fixing my buttons in front of the mirror when a call came info my phone and I rolled my eyes on seeing the caller. Oh, geez! Not again.
I picked it up with reluctancy and put it on speaker.
“Hey, Nathie. Why have you been snubbing my calls? Do I look like a lady to you?” He teased on the phone.
“You’ve been pestering me, dude. What exactly do you want?” I asked with a huff.
“Well, I just wanted to know what’s up with you. Have you gotten a date yet? The party’s tonight”.
“And why’re you so interested in the date, huh? If I’ve gotten a date, I’ll let you know. So,,chillax”.
“Well…you know,,all the ladies are being expectant. So..”
“Yeah, just get off my neck. I’m running late”
And I ended the call. Geez!
And talking about the party…..who would my date be, huh?
Ugh!
I rounded up with my buttons and just then, the door opened to mum walking in.
I stopped to admire her as she looked so beautiful in her long pretty gown, jewelries covered her hands.
“Nathan”, she smiled as she walked towards me.
“Good morning, mum”.
She got to where I was and planted a kss on my cheek.
“Going to school today?” She started adjusting my collars
“Yes, mum. I’m having a presentation”. I replied, and she mouthed an “oh”.
Has there been any progress on the search of the disciple?” I asked after a little pause, but she didn’t reply immediately.
“Well…some of the boys I have working underground has actually gotten some news on her”, she answered, making me enthusiastic.
“According to them, the woman that had stolen the child, relocated to a place, far away. So, they went there and people from the neighborhood told them the woman had relocated – again.
“They made some more research and discovered the woman might actually be here. So, they’re looking for her”.
“Wow”, I mouthed. “That means they’re close, right? There’s a high possibility of her being found soon?”
“Yes, son”. She replied with a smile.
I nodded in agreement, hoping they succeed. Well, I just wanted father to get better.
I glanced at the time and noticed I was running really late.
“I need to leave, mum. Bye”,
“Take care of yourself, son”. And I pecked her cheek before leaving.

Scott
I walked into the building, a litted cigarette in my hand.
Danica – how could she? How could she think of going against me even after my warnings to her? I couldn’t believe another car dropped her off at home the previous night. Where were all these cars coming from, anyway? How did she get such connections?
I felt bittered and thought of what to do. No matter what, I’m getting Danica back. I know I’d wronged her in the past, but I’m ready to make amends and have her back. All I need is just a chance; one last chance. Is that too much to ask from her?
I walked angrily to the building and met the rest of the boys there.
“Whst took you so long, Scott? We were beginning to think you wouldn’t show up”, Evans said as I got to where they were and I threw the burning cigarette on the floor.
‘Something came up. What do we have?” I asked huskily, looking at the opened book in front of me.
“Well, the woman we’ve been looking for under the order of the second queen, we have a feeling she’s here in the city”. Another replied and I looked at him.
“The 12th disciple?” I asked and he nodded.
Oh.
“So…where exactly is she?”
“Well, that’s what we don’t know yet. But we think she might be close”.
“We need to find this lady, Scott. The Queen’s promising us a lifetime fortune”.
I sighed and looked down at the book.
“How exactly do we find her? She could be anyone. And we don’t even have a picture”. I grouse.
“Well….the Queen has actually given us a hint. She said there’s a mark on her waist”.
I looked at him immediately.
“What mark?”

Danica
Getting to the ladies room, I went straight to my locker and took out my towel. I changed from my uniform, tied the towel around me and walked into the bathroom.
G©sh! These ladies could be so annoying. How can I be sure they didn’t do this on purpose, huh? Just to humiliate me?
I turned on the shower in the bathroom and enjoyed the bath, washing my hair and body. Perfect, now I’m wet!!
I tried to make the bath brief and when I was done, I dried my hair properly before walking out with the towel.
The place was empty,probably because everyone was in class already.
I walked back to my locker and opened it, but my jaws dropped when I couldn’t find a single cloth in it – not even my uniforms.
What the….
I flinched and looked around, wondering if they’d fallen off or something.
What is going on? Where are my uniforms??
Where are my clothes????
