Looking at the piece of a card infont of her door step, she already guess what that thing was. Even though she saw it once yesterday, she was sure 8n the design outside the card. Without a doubt it was the invitation card they received yesterday. How did that end up to her room?
Picking it up, she went out to the dorm room, to her breakfast before heading to their comittee's office. She wants to know the details why they put it in her room.
It did not take her long, she arrived in their office to see no one was there yet. She waited but no one entered the office, so she decided to went back to her room. The dorm was too quiet since the festival in the school was on its final day. Most of the student went to enjoy the last minute of it.
Sighing she entered her room, she felt troubled by the invitation she received. She tripped onto something, she almost fell if she had not hold to the table beside.
"Who would put a box inside my dorm? How did that come inside?" she remembered her room was already tresspassed by one of the Rulers, Morgan. She can't imagine if the box was from him, which she would likely feel uncomfortable. Its impossible he would give her a gift.
She put the box on top of her bed and inspect the cover in it. It was simply a box, n8thing weird from it. When she carry it earlier, it was so light. What could possibly be inside that box?
She undo the ribbon on top of it and slowly opening th box, to reveal a well designed dress. It was too beautiful on Mandy's eyes, the color was also one of her favorite. Whoever gave her the dress, sure knows her very well.
Looking from it, it looks like she was very much invited to go. It was against her will to attend the ball, but the dress would go to waste if she would not go.
She lift up the dress to see much more from it, it was indeed to her liking. She can't resist to try it on, so she unconsciously went to her closet and check how it looks when it was on to her. It really fits her very well, and was too good to her. It really complements her hair, skin tone and body. It confirms that Mandy really liked the dress, how could she not accept it? But, she still have no idea who gave that to her.
A chauffeur arrived when the night arrived, the invited students were all been called. Mandy was hesitant to reveal herself downstairs, but a knock occur in her room. As the door opened, it reveal a creature in a black suit.
"Miss Frost, I am here to fetch for you. Your presence is needed to be there." he bowed, offering a hand. She was already in her dress, do some few arrangement in her appearance to look decent. She sighed and accepted the offer, it obviously she was going.
Going down the ground floor, she saw the other she was going to be with. She also saw Grace was there too, so she started to wonder why. She was about to go to her when the man who fetch her held his hand to stop her.
"This way Miss Frost" he said while while gesturing her to the other vehicle from them. It made Mandy to look at Grace with a troubled look, but they were also was told to get on the vehicle.
The whole ride was too quiet since it was only Mandy and the driver. She was alone in the vehicle that she felt nervous. She was afraid where would the driver would take her, but it was confirmed they were all headed in the same place since they followed the group ahead of them.
Until she saw a line of beautiful garden, with a fountain in the center of it, but the huge building with so much light from it could be noticed. Stopping infront of it, each of them exited the vehicle and check out the outer beauty of the building. When the two vehicle leave, Mandy thought she could finally talked to Grace when a servant came to her.
"Miss Frost, kindly please follow me." the creature bowed to her, facing the back of her to start to walk. Mandy have no other choice but to follow the servant, she mouthed she was going ahead of them and waved at Grace. She was curious where the servant would take her. Only to find out it was on the topmost part of the hall, where the whole place of the hall could be seen.
The servant suddenly offered her a mask, with an intricate design of it. She was told to wear it, before the ball will start.
Few minutes later, one by one the seats along side her were all occupied. The distance was too far from each other to make her greet them or to say something to them. She was not sure who just sat beside her since they also wore a mask. But, when a person arrived with a guy outfit gave her an intense gaze which was only focus on her make Mandy uncomfortable. 'Why is this guy looking at me intently?' she can't help but got curious.
"You dress up nice, not bad for a mere creature like you." the guy creature spoke out, that made Mandy to look strangely to the guy. She was not mistaken it was him. How could he know it was her in the masked they have? She wants to reply back to the creature but it was too far for her from where he have his seat.
