'I should have followed Genie's instructions to Aladdin about making wishes — you should be specific to the wished you make to avoid complications and misunderstandings. And in my case, I've brought trouble to myself.'
People meet regret at the end of everything, seriously. Rosewell could only shook her head in mind because of that.
"You can not run away from us forever, missy," the lady with sharp eyes and calm face said while staring at the young girl's cold expression, "You can not avoid the things that destiny has given you. Your life has been planned even before you were born in this world. And now, you have to do what you are ought to do."
If only looks could kill, this lady must have been called double-dead.
The lady did not receive any responds except for Rosewell's glaring stares. She then sigh before giving signals to the school's bodyguard to bring the missy out and guide her to her dorm room.
Before the young girl could turn her back from the lady, the latter mattered words she hated the most.
"If you are afraid to face your responsibility, you should have convinced her to stop."
"If I were you, I will shut my mouth to the things that does not concern me. Or else, someone might do something to shut me up," the lady felt the hair on her neck raise.
She felt the danger in the young girl's aura. She did not even have any idea how the young girl manage to be on her back in a blink of an eye.

The dormitories is located on the east part of the school. May it be for the school's staffs or the students' dormitory.
It was designed as if you are choosing between which castle suits you the most because right after you passed through the only tunnel to the east, those are aligned and all facing west.
"This will be your room, m'lady," a sweet scent welcomed Rosewell's nostrils when they entered the room, "Every room has their own bathroom but you could also use the shower room for everyone in the first floor. It doesn't have kitchen because everyone is ordered to eat together in the dining hall that is located in Margot's building, first floor. The academy still has a cafeteria beside that hall for those who are late and just want to eat some snacks," he said pertaining to the door on the right corner of the room, then he handed a small box, "That contains your room key card, class schedule, academy's rules and regulations, and your identity card. Your identity card will serve as your wallet—it pays your expenses and receives your rewards."
Finally, after so many etcheras, the bodyguard left the room. He did not even bother to introduce himself and just left the girl alone.
Rosewell continued to roam her eyes around the room before coming near the study table. In front of every study table is a window that gave a clear view to the Eastern Forest.
While staring at the forest, a light showed in the middle of the forest but she could narrow her eyes, it was gone.
'I must be really tired,' she muttered to herself before she pulled down the curtain — causing to miss the chance to see the light that reappeared.
After she removed her shoes and finally rest on the bed, the things that happened in just one night came to her mind.
After sleeping all day, she have to get up at night to work. She then started her routine and took her bag to leave, not knowing that some people are waiting for her outside the apartment to get her.
"My wish did came true — no more chasing because they finally caught me," she sighed and closed her eyes — not having the least idea that the light that caught her sight appeared right on top of her head.

In the middle of nowhere, the young girl's heavy breaths could be heard. She is running with a her might.
Her heart is beating so fast every time she would turn to look upon the things at her back just to see nothing but blank and black. She couldn't help but to question her sanity because her body could not stop from running and she feels like someone is after her though she could not see anyone from her back chasing her.
She brought back her stare on her way and gave her best to run, "I wish this shit to end!" she shouted at the top of her lungs that echoed to that place.
"Damn it," she felt like her life reached its end when she came at a dead end, "Not this end, man!" she stomped her feet when she could no longer run further.
Thw place is so quiet, that every breath she takes, she could hear it echoes.
Her nerves started to affect her way of thinking so all she could do is to slam the barrier that made her stop her track.
The beatings of her heart slowed down as it felt that the something behind her stop. She blinked her eyes a few times before she enhaled a deep breath and turn around to exhale only to stop herself from breathing because of the blinding light together with an overwhelming sound that entered her being.
"Holy sh—!"
She was covered with sweat when she woke up from her weird dream. She held her chest and breathed heavily as if she managed to escape from karma's grip — which is kinda similar to what she have been through in her dreams.
When she finally manage to calm down, she then realized the sun rays that manage to sneak despite the windlow blinds and blocked her sight. She raised her hand to cover her eyes and look upon the clock beside her bed only to find out that she have to get up to start the day.
Rosewell could not help but to frown while standing in front of the body sized mirror.
Why this red skirt with white line on its tip has to be two inches above the knee?
Why these black socks only reaches my knee?
Why we still have to wear long sleeved polo with red necktie if we have to put a cloak on top of it?
I could tolerate my waitress' uniform, but not this!
Why am I even in this position?
Those are the things she wanted to shout to the world and could not help but to roll herself before releasing a sigh of defeat. Besides, she could not do anything about it.
Because she entered the school year that started a month ago, everyone already has their own company. Thus, ceremonies and announcements are removed from the list that the school traditionally does before eating.
They have 4 long tables for everyone and they have a separated table for the headmistress and maestros that is elevated a bit from the students.
After finding a seat, she roamed her eyes around and cocked her head when her stare landed on a table that placed away from them. It was even elevated than their normal height.
Rosewell could not help but to frown un her mind when she heard someone cough in front of her, 'He should have stayed in his room if he is sick.'
Everyone stood up when the breakfast time has end, then we all turned to proceed to our own respected classrooms.
They still have twenty-five minutes before eight-thirty which is the time for their first class. Even Royals are studying in this academy, chitchats before class could not be removed.
"Did you know girls that the princess finally entered the academy?" a girl with yellow hair started the topic.
Rosewell arched her brow when she heard those.
"Oh really? Where did you get that? Is she pretty?" this one has blue hair and petite.
Rumors can be found anywhere, there is no doubt with that.
"I bet she's weak and ugly. Maybe that are the reasons why she is not showing up to any royal ball," she said while playing her curly orange hair.
These school girls are acting as if they are the only people in the hallway.
"Right! She did not even showed up when almost everyone in the kingdom is fighting for their lives, such a coward princess we have!"
The first class is about to start but Rosewell chose to stay beside her classroom's door. Silently listening to the girls that are chatting.
"She don't deserve to be our princess, duh!" while this one has purple hair.
The young girl is just staring at her nails while listening and she didn't bother to stop herself to roll her eyes in their direction.
Because she got bored, she decided to enter her room but was stopped when she heard another person speak.
"You seem to know the things to be a princess? Care to share? "
