Danica
Whaaat???
I looked at him in shock. Hold on; is he being serious???
Accompany him as a what?? Aa a date???
No; I’m probably dreaming. Probably dreaming.
“Danica?” He muttered my name, looking into my eyes.
I tried saying something but was cut off when Mrs Hayoon showed up.
“Where are your values?” She asked and I blinked rapidly to bring myself back to reality.
“Um….right here, ma’am”. I opened my manual and shwoed to her.
Afterwards, she took over – crosschecking our values with our current presentation and in the end,,she nodded and dropped the book, moving to another table.
I sighed with relief because she didn’t seem like she had a problem with ours. I looked at the prince and found him on his phone.
Oh my God! The date;
The prince really wants me to accompany him to a party??? But why? Why me?
I mean, who am I to him? I’m not even important, am I??
And….thinking of mum….
That woman is crazy and might kill me if I disobey her. But I really don’t wanna go with her. I can’t even imagine myself being used by the prince – prince Eric at that.
G©sh! No way.
“Still thinkng about it?” I suddenly heard a voice and looked to see it was prince Nathan.
Oh God! What do I even tell him?
“My prince…” I muttered. “Um..sorry to ask, but when is the party?”
“7” he replied and my eyes dimmed.
Whaaaat???
7 what?? P.m?? That late??
How can I possibly stay out that late?? Would grandma permit it??
“But you’ll need to come over to my place by 6” he added.
Okay; and now he’s making it more complicated. Come over to his place?? I need to go to his house before we leave???
Oh crap!
“Okay, students! And that’s it for today”, Mrs Hayoon said audibly as she rounded up her scrutiny.
“You all did extremely well. Well, most, not all”, she walked to the front of the room, flipping through her book.
“For those absent, its a 0% for you. And as for the results, I’d just become calling out the top three best while the rest of the results would be pasted later on for the rest of you to see.
“So,” she focused her eyes on a particular o ml page in the book.
“For the 3rd best, we have Bitna and Alex”.
“For the second best, we have Chinsu and Ella.
“And for the overall best, we have Prince Nathan and Danica.
“The rest of the results will be posted later. Good jobs, everyone”. She concluded and stared walking out of the clss and by then, the class had already become extra noisy.
Oh my God!! Hold on….we took the first position?!? The first position???
My cheeks flushed as I looked at prince Nathan. We actually did it!! Our efforts weren’t in vain!!
“We made it, my prince!!” I exclaimed happily, unable to contain my excitement.
We made it!!
“Yes,,of course. I knew we would. All thanks to the braniac” he said with a light smile and I laughed.
I spotted Bitna storminef out of the class, looking like she was gong to move a mountain.
Oh my! She looked terribly angry. But why did she come third?? Not even second, huh?
I could hear the students mumbling and talking about us – prince Nathan and I.
Well, they could say what they wanted to. It was none lf my business. The most important thing was, I made it. Came first at my first trial in school. Oh,,goodness!!
My happiness surely knew no bounds.
“Come on”, Prince Nathan tilted his head and started walking out of the class and I figured he wanted me to follow.
I took my books from the table and scurried after him.
“I need to know your reply..towards my proposal. Are you coming with me to the party or not?” He asked and I bit my inner cheeks.
Oh God! What do I tell him?
“Um…I’d love to, my prince. But the time…the time is so late. And I haven’t really been to any party before”, I said shyly.
“Well, this would be your first. And you don’t have to worry about the time. I’ll make sure you’re safe”, he said and I bit my lower lip this time around.
This might be a perfect opportunity to escape mum’s plans, even thou I might get punished for it.
I lifted my head to look at the prince.
“O…okay, my prince. I’ll..I’ll come to the palace by 6” I told him.
“Not the palace – my personal house. I’ll have one of my drivers come pick you up”.
Whaaat?? His personal house?? And driver??
No; what if I get seen by mum or grandma??
“Uh…don’t worry about it, my prince. I’ll…I’ll come over myself”. I replied.
“Why?”
“Well…I..I might not be at home before coming. Don’t worry, I’ll just come over myself. I still recall the road to the house”,
He was silent for a few seconds.
“Okay, then. If you say so. Try not to be late. And thanks”. He concluded with a charming smile and walked away, while I stood like a statue for a long time, staring at his back.
Oh God! I’d really love to go with him. But mum….if she’s at home, there’s no way she’d let me go out. What do I Do?

Jeong and Hana
“I swear, we didn’t do anything wrong. We aren’t the ones behind it”, Jeong squealed as they sat in front of the principal who was interrogating them seriously
“You poured the paint on her, right? And just when she’d gone to the bathroom for a bath, her clothes went missing”. The principal said.
“Well, yes. But it doesn’t mean we’re behind the missing clothes. Although, we really did pour the paint on her, but that was a mistake. A terrible mistake. But we’d never steal her clothes – over what reason? We aren’t that heartless”, Hana also said.
They where obviously paranoid. They’d missed the presentations already. Now, this?
The principal looked at them and scribbled down something in his book.
“Well, guilty or not, the prince has ordered for a suspension on both of you. You’ve been suspended for three days”, he announced and their eyes nearly left their sockets.
“Whaat?? But thats not fair!! You can’t just….You can’t just suspend us over nothing. You don’t even have strong evidence”. They’ objected.
“I don’t need to have strong evidence. The prince wants you suspended,and that’s it. You’re suspended! You can leave my office”, he spoke rashly and Jeong felt like crying.
Getting a suspension was really bad for them. What would they say to their parents?
“Sir..please. You don’t have to do this to us”. Hana pleaded but he didn’t pay attention to any of them as he continued writing in his book.
They looked at each other and stood pathetically, and angrily.
“Well, if you really wanna suspend us, then I guess Bitna would have to be involved” Jeong said angrily.
Hana gasped and tried restricting her from going any further, but the principal had already picked Interest as he looked at them.
“Why?” He asked.
“Because she’s the Master mind of it and we were only acting under her instructions. So, Bitna would need to get punished as well”, she replied blatantly.
