"What are you trying to do Debby?"

"I just got a call from my sister," she said showing the screen of her smartphone to her two friends before running out of the room to talk to her sister who called her.

"I thought she wanted to take a picture," Anna said sighing in relief.

"She wouldn't," Rose told her shaking her head at her sister but also happy that her sister was cautious. Debby was smart enough to know it won't be appropriate to take a picture of the work she was creating.

"My sister wants me to come back home," Debby said when she returned to the room.

"Why?" Anna asked surprised.

"She did not give me any reason it was a command," Debby replied frowning. "I really don't want to go home."

"From what you said, I don't think you have any choice," Anna said shaking her head.

"Yes, too bad," Debby murmured with downcast eyes.

"We could still study together in the library while you go home to sleep every day," Anna suggested knowing her friend needed her help.

"Yes, that is possible. I will do that," Debby agreed raising her head and smiled at Anna before throwing her hands around Anna and hugged her tightly. "You are a lifesaver."

"I doubt," Anna said under her breath as she pulled away from her friend's hug.

"You look happy," her mathematics teacher observed when she made herself comfortable on a chair in his office.

"Hmm. My sister and I made up," Anna replied naturally.

"Did you two fight?" he asked confused as he took the seat beside her and made himself comfortable crossing his legs.

"Yes, for a while. She won't tell me who she went out with that night and I want to know," Anna narrated.

"I guess you are bothered because she made you worried," the teacher told her.

"Hmm I was worried. I waited for hours before she came back," Anna narrated with a frown. "But she forgave me for being to childish."

"Were you being childish?"

"No, I was only trying to show her that I care," Anna replied. "If I get to fight with anyone, it shouldn't be my sister. I love her," Anna said now smiling dreamingly.

"The fact that she is okay means the person she went with was nice and did not hurt her," the mathematics teacher continued.

"Yes I guess so. She said he is a brother of a friend but I can't think of anyone," she complained her smile disappearing at his statement.

"A brother of a friend?" the man asked with a supposedly uninterested look on his face as he picked a book and began opening its pages.

"Eric is her only friend, at least the only friend I know of but Eric has no brother and it can't be his cousin who is supposed to be in a university in Star city."

"So . . ." he began but stopped to yawn as he continued going through the book he held.

"It can't be Jace's brother or Wayne's brother. Wayne would have known if it was his brother and Jace's brother . . . that my sister is scared of him. He hates us . . . At least that is what I think and we are too little to be a concern to him, he cares about nobody," Anna continued to speculate verbally.

"Have you thought of going to take a tour around the university you want to go to?" he suddenly asked as though tired of her endless speech.

"A tour? Wow, that will be cool. I want to take a tour. I heard you are went to the Royal University," she said with her eyes shining with excitement.

"Yes, it is the best university in the two former kingdoms," he replied nodding his head as he lowered the book.

"Oh that's right. I want to go to the Royal University. They have almost everything anyone needs to be the best in a field. People come from all over the world to attend the university," Anna said happily. It was a dream to go to the university and it was a dream about to come to happen.

"They have everything. It is not a child's play to sit at the top above every other universities for over

five decades now," he informed her proudly.

She smiled when she saw the sincere pride he had for his school in the way his eyes shone. If he could be this happy talking about his school . . . "How about you take my sister and I on a tour in Star city?" Anna blurted out but immediately wished she didn't when she knew he could reject her immediately. "Oh never . . ."

"Sure. I know the school well," he replied almost immediately.

"How about after the examination. For now, my sister is busy and won't be able to come with us. When the examinations are over, we will go on a tour," Anna jubilated. "Thank you so much."

"You are welcome. I was only trying to help since I know the school well and . . ." he began accepting her appreciation but stopped when he felt her soft hands holding his hands.

He looked down at her beautiful black eyes which shined happily at his at he could not resist the urge to pull her into a tight hug.

Anna froze at the feeling his warmth surrounding her like a thick blanket but she could not deny the feeling of comfort it gave her as she closed her eyes and decided to relax in that embrace.

"Let's go on a tour around Star city," Anna said when she settled down to eat lunch but could not hold back the news till lunch was over.

"We have our examinations and no time for fun," Wayne replied shaking his head.

"We will go on the tour after our examinations. I got someone who is going to show the whole of the Royal University to us," Anna explained quickly impatient for them to share her excitement.

"Really? But will I ever get into the university?" Debby murmured rhetorically as her dropped with a sad countenance.

"Why not? You are going to go with us," Anna replied rubbing her friend's hand.

Eric looked at Rose who seemed to be uninterested and raised an eyebrow at her when she met his gaze. She shook her head and continued eating.

"Rose? Will you go?" Anna asked expectantly.

"I will think about it," Rose replied looking at the appetizing meal before her as she took from it to continue eating.

"The fashion show mum is planning, I will get us a ticket to it. What do you think?" Anna asked trying to lure her with a thing she loved.

"I watch it on the TV all the time," Rose replied uninterestedly although she was way more excited than anybody else at the table with her to visit Star city but she was scared.

She was scared of what could happen to her if she gets too close to the kingdom's capital perhaps she might never return to B city alive.

Too many people lived in Star city that hated her and she was not even sure at this rate if who her enemies were. It was best to stay in her safe haven.

"You are still going to go to star city but a tour before we move finally to star city is not bad, right? It will make it easier for us to fit in," Anna began the task of convincing her sister to come with them.

"I will think about it," Rose tried to conclude the discussion and end the persuasion. She wanted to make the decision on her own.
