Bitna
“Come on, girls. Please, just do it for me”, I pleaded. “I wouldn’t want my parents to know about this. Just do it for me, please”. I pleaded, but they still didn’t loll convinced.
Dmn it! I couldn’t let them do this to me.
“We’re going to miss the presentation!” Jeong cried out.
“G©sh! We need to get going already, to avoid further consequence” Hana said and started walking out.
Jeong stood and glared at me, then walked out as well.
A frustrated tear ran down my cheek as I stared at them. What’s happening?
That bch!
I sniffed and wiped my tear off, then walked out of garden as well, headed for class.
As I walked pass the students, I could clearly hear them talking about the incidence. And it hurt me to the last. I bit my inner cheek and tried not to pay attention to them, but it was impossible as their voices kept penetrating.
Oh! How I hated the sound of it.
I finally got to close and my heart melted at the sight in front of me – Danica and the prince, standing together.
The teacher was already in class and the students stood all around her, ready for the presentation.
What’s it about this girl, huh? Why does she have to be the lucky one? Of all the students in school, including me, why does she have to be the lucky one?
As I stood by the door, staring at her, I suddenly saw something on her neck, something that looked familiar.
I strained my eyes to have a look and little by little, the image became clearer to me.
It was a birth mark, just a jor dot. But it looked so familiar.
Suddenly, my eyes dimmed when I recalled where I’d seen it from.
Hah!! Of course!
It was the same mark I’d seen on mom’s neck the other night.
Oh my God! It was!
Now, I know why it had looked so familiar when I’d seen it on mum’s neck. But why?

Danica
I couldn’t think of a better way to thank the prince for what he’d done by helping me to class. Seriously, I wouldn’t know what to do if I had to walk alone after that incidence. There’s no way I’d have done it.
But with the prince holding my hand,,I was able to cover my shame and get successfully to class.
All eyes were on us and I didn’t even want to know what they’d possibly be saying. I guess the most important thing was getting to class successfully for the presentations.
Mrs Hayoon came in not long after and we all gathered around her.
“You still recall the formulas, huh? My head is totally blank” the prince whispered to me and I smiled.
Mrs Hayoon gave out the instructions. Each group was meant to work with their partners and in the end, the results were to correspond with that in the manual. If they don’t correspond, it only meant everything done in h last three days was a waste of time.
When we were about to commence, that was when I spotted Bitna with her partner. But her eyes were pinned on me and this time around, I returned a glare before looking away.
Prince Nathan and I walked to our own side of the table and got ready to carry out the experiments.
“So, what’s the first thing on the list. Huh?” He asked as he adjusted the conical flask.
I could feel a lot of eyes on us and it made me wonder if they’d ever be able to concentrate.
“Um…we’ll be going with…this, first”, I took up the required element and poured it into the flask.
He assisted with the things I needed and it was a perfect pair.
“Would you be chanced…..for tonight?” He asked and my hands shook a little, making some of the elements pour on the table.
Oh…my!
“Danica…” He hushed my name and quickly grabbed a napkin to clean it off.
Geez! What’s wrong with me?
“I’m….I’m so sorry, my prince. I….” I paused and moved my hair behind my ear.
Well, I didn’t know what to say. But why would he ask me that?? I mean…what plan could he possibly have for the night that’d involve me?
I looked at him and was about saying something when the teacher showed up.
“Is there a problem here?” She asked and I quickly shook my head.
“Then, concentrate. There’s no time”.
I bit my lower lip and turned back to the experiment. The prince didn’t say any other thing either.
“Um…I’m so sorry, my prince. But can you help me with the carbon?” I asked since it was close to him. And he chuckled.
‘Is that the reason you had to beg that much?” He asked as he handed the carbon to me and I just smiled shyly.
The class was so busy and it went on for a long while.
The prince and I were almost the last persons to round up with our experiments as the rest of the students had concluded with theirs already.
Mrs Hayoon went around, inspecting every body’s work and taking notes. And as she did, the students mumbled.
Prince Nathan turned to face me since she was far from us.
“I asked you a question…but you’re yet to reply” he spoke calmly, trying to make sure the rest of the students couldn’t hear him.
I felt my lungs become dry as I looked at him. G©sh! He was making me so nervous.
I was about telling him I’d be free, but then I remembered mum.
Oh God! She was taking me to Prince Eric..
I stared down at the floor, bashfully.
‘Is there a problem, my prince?” I asked, my eyes on the floor.
The thought of mum taking me to Prince Eric suddenly ruined my mood.
“Well…”, he drew closer.
“I wanted you to accompany me to a party – as my date”.
I lifted my eyes sharply to look at him.
Whaaaaat???
