Danica
I woke up the next morning, took my bath and got ready for school. Getting to the sitting room, I found grandma setting the dining and went ahead to meet her.
âGood morning, grannyâ, I said lightly, my eyes surveying the dining. It was just scrambled eggs and bread.
âGood morning,,darling. You ready for school?â She asked and I nodded.
There was a brief silence.
âCould you get your mum for me, please? She should be in her room. Tell her to come down for breakfastâ, grandma said and I felt a little twitch.
âUmâŠ.okayâ, I replied nervously, dropped my bag on the table and left.
I knocked on the door of her room, but there was no response. Then, I opened the door slowly and had a peek before walking out.
âMâŠMum?â I called with a crack in my voice, but she didnât seem to be in the room.
Huh? Where could she be?
âMum?â I called again, walking deeper.
Then, I found sâ±0tted something on the bed â a photograph that was laid downwards. It looked so familiar like it was rhe same photograph Iâd caught mum staring at the other day.
I walked closer to it and picked it up. And my eyes drooped when I discovered it was Bitnaâs picture.
Whaaaat??? Bitna?? What is mum doing with her photography?
I arched my brows as I stared at it, feeling confused and surprised. Why would mum have Bitnaâs picture with her? And the way sheâd been staring at itâŠso enthusiastic.
I sure heard footsteps from the bathroom and quickly, I dropped the picture back on the bed and moved away from it. The door opened immediately with mum walking out.
She seemed to had just taken a shower as she looked w-t and had a towel around her neck.
âWhatâre you doing here?â She asked, her voice as hĂŠrd as usual.
I lowered my gaze.
âGood morning, mum. Grandma asked me to call you down for breakfastâ I replied lowly and could tell she was glaring at me.
âFine. You can leaveâ she said grumpily and I turned around and left the room.
I returned to the dining and took my seat quietly, next to grandma.
âIs she coming?â Grandma asked and I just nodded.
Thinking of the fact that i was being hated by my own mother, hurt me so much.
Mum didnât show up until I was done eating. And when Iâd stood up with my bag, that was when showed up.
âIâll be on my way now, granny. Byeâ I mumbled to grandma after taking my bag.
âBye dear. Take care of yourselfâ.
âMake sure youâre home early today. Remember we have something to doâ, mum suddenly said from the stairs and I turned to look at her, tears burning the back of my eyes.
Oh God!
I just sniffed and nodded and walked out of the house and as I did,,I heard grandma asking âwhatâs that?â
Well, I was sure sheâd either ignore her, or lie to her.
As I gor far from the house, a tear came strolling down my cheek. How can mum do this to me, huh? How? How can she just give me away to the ruthless prince?? All for money??
I felt cur$ed,,rejected. What did I do to deserve such a mother? I loved her, but she doesnât and it was killing me slowly.
Good lord.
I got to the roadside, boarded a cab and in a short time, I was on my way to school.
I leaned my heas on the hĂŠrd window and continued thinking â thinking about a lot of things. I tried as much as possible not to weep anymore. I had a presentation with the prince and needed to put on my best mood.
I tried to detach my mind from my present condition and after a long while, I was there in school.
Ah! At last.
I got off the cab and continued the rest of the distance to the gate.
The earliest trick seemed to have helped me as I felt a lot better. I got to the gate, showed the security my pass and walked into the building.
I was on my way to class when suddenly, two students, holding a rubber of whatever, ran towards my direction and seemed to be fighting over it.
âI said let it go!â
âLet it go!â
âIâm going to smack you in the face, Jeong!â
Hold onâŠ.I recognized them very well. They were Bitnaâs companions.
They ran towards my direction with the argument and as soon as thy got to where I was, they poured it on me.
Oh myâŠ..God!!!!!!
âAhh!â One of them shirked.
I opened my mouth agaped as the entire paint poured on me. It was pure paint, and stained from my hair down to my skirt.
Holy Christ!!
âYou caused this, Hana! I warned you, didnât I? You caused this. Look what youâve done to this poor ladyâ.Jeong squealed, but I was speechless.
How could theyâŠ.
âOh! Danica, weâre so sorry. It wasnât intentional. Please,,forgive usâ, Hana said apologetically.
âWas this really necessary?â I snapped.
âPlease, it wasnât intentional. You can make use of the bathroom. Weâre so sorryâ.
I glared hĂŠrd at them. Gosh! And the presentation was just a few minutes from now.
I huffed and walked away, headed for the ladiesâ bathroom.

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.
âHey, Nathie. Why have you been snubbing my calls? Do I look like a lady to you?â He teased on the phone.
âYouâve been pestering me, dude. What exactly do you want?â I asked with a huff.
âWell, I just wanted to know whatâs up with you. Have you gotten a date yet? The partyâs tonightâ.
âAnd whyâre you so interested in the date, huh? If Iâve gotten a date, Iâll let you know. So,,chillaxâ.
âWellâŠyou know,,all the ladies are being expectant. So..â
âYeah, just get off my neck. Iâm running lateâ
And I ended the call. Geez!
And talking about the partyâŠ..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.
âNathanâ, she smiled as she walked towards me.
âGood morning, mumâ.
She got to where I was and planted a kss on my cheek.
âGoing to school today?â She started adjusting my collars
âYes, mum. Iâm having a presentationâ. I replied, and she mouthed an âohâ.
Has there been any progress on the search of the disciple?â I asked after a little pause, but she didnât reply immediately.
âWellâŠsome of the boys I have working underground has actually gotten some news on herâ, she answered, making me enthusiastic.
âAccording 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 â again.
âThey made some more research and discovered the woman might actually be here. So, theyâre looking for herâ.
âWowâ, I mouthed. âThat means theyâre close, right? Thereâs a high possibility of her being found soon?â
âYes, sonâ. 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.
âI need to leave, mum. Byeâ,
âTake care of yourself, sonâ. And I pecked her cheek before leaving.

I walked into the building, a litted cigarette in my hand.
Danica â how could she? How could she think of going against me even after my warnings to her? I couldnât 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, Iâm getting Danica back. I know Iâd wronged her in the past, but Iâm 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.
âWhst took you so long, Scott? We were beginning to think you wouldnât show upâ, Evans said as I got to where they were and I threw the burning cigarette on the floor.
âSomething came up. What do we have?â I asked huskily, looking at the opened book in front of me.
âWell, the woman weâve been looking for under the order of the second queen, we have a feeling sheâs here in the cityâ. Another replied and I looked at him.
âThe 12th disciple?â I asked and he nodded.
Oh.
âSoâŠwhere exactly is she?â
âWell, thatâs what we donât know yet. But we think she might be closeâ.
âWe need to find this lady, Scott. The Queenâs promising us a lifetime fortuneâ.
I sighed and looked down at the book.
âHow exactly do we find her? She could be anyone. And we donât even have a pictureâ. I grouse.
âWellâŠ.the Queen has actually given us a hint. She said thereâs a mark on her wa-istâ.
I looked at him immediately.
âWhat mark?â

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 didnât 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 Iâm w-t!!
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 couldnât find a single cloth in it â not even my uniforms.
What theâŠ.
I flinched and looked around, wondering if theyâd fallen off or something.
What is going on? Where are my uniforms??
Where are my clothes????

Scott
âWhat mark?â I asked curiously, my brows furrowed at them.
They opened another page of the book and showed it to me.
âEach disciple had a mark according to his/her number. So, the 12th disciple should have the number 12 as well â on her wa-istâ. He replied and my eyes dimmed as everything sounded familiar to me â looked familiar.
The number 12.
The markâŠ
Iâd swear Iâve seen that mark before. Definitely.
But where�?
Good lord!!
My heart leapt immediately.
Danica!!
Danica
My heart skipped as I looked around. Where the heck were my clothes???
Oh my God! What happened to them?? Who took them??
Conniption gripped me as I looked around. Why was I suddenly having a cranky feeling about this? Bitna and her friendsâŠwhy was my mind drifting to them?
No; but they wouldnât do this to me. What have I done to deserve such cruelty from them?
I suddenly saw something familiar on the floor â close to the door. I gasped whe when I recognized it.
Oh my God! My underwear!!
My eyes dimmed immediately and I rushed to get it. What was it doing on the floor?
I looked and saw another, a distance away, after the door.
What?? How did they get there?? I ran to it and picked it up.
I looked and saw another. Then, I discovered it was being done on purpose. They were purposely lined up that way. But who couldâve done such ev1l???
I ran to it and picked it up.
I looked and saw more of my stockings, shoes and books,, spread on a straight line and I dolefully followed them â picking them up.
In all, I was still yet to find my main clothes. Who could have done this to me? Bitna? Iâll definitely make sure she pays.
Tears pricked my eyes as I continued following the trail and finally, I ended up in the courtroom. Oh my God! The basketball court room.
A little practice was going on there by the boys with few students around and everyone tyrned to look at me as I showed up.
âWhat theâŠhâll?â One of the girls chuckled. All eyes were rotating around me.
Good lord!
Even the boys stopped playing and looked at me and it dawned on me again that I was putting on just a towel. A towel?! In front of so many people!!
âWhoâs she..?â Others laughed.
âIs she crazy?â
âOr she missed her way?..â
âOhâŠcrap!â
My clothes were there on one side of the floor and I bit my lip as I walked towards it, trying as much as possible to stop my tears from falling.
My eyes sâ±0tted Bitna and her crew alongside the other students, and they had a triumphant smirk on their l-ips. Obviously, it was from them.
I lowered my gaze to the floor as I went to where the clothes were on the floor. I held my towel tightly to my chest before bending to pick them. I had to struggle and be so much careful to prevent my towel from falling off. I felt so much humiliation. How would she do this to me?
Over half of the students were taking pictures of me with their phones. I could imagine what theyâd tag me as â Crazy student in towel, walks into the Basketball courtâ.
Oh,,Bitna Iâd never forgive you for this. I just had a strong feeling she was behind it.
But surelyâŠ.thereâs no way Iâd be staying in school after this. No way â not today â not after all this.
I heard more noise and lifted my eyes to see more students running into the hall. Oh God! Has the news gone so far already? What do I do?
I had to drop my shoes and books so I could pick the clothes properly and as I did, I suddenly felt a hand support me â a hand touch my clothes.
A tear dropped from my eye as I lifted them slowly to see the prince, squatting in front of me.
