" So you ended up getting your first detention because of this right? "
" Yeah... "
" Not bad... At least you'll have something to serve as a warning next time you want to have an argument with your best friend. "
" That's really mean. "
" It wasn't meant to make you feel better, really... Just try to work things out with your best friend... Apologise to her and talk to her about this, okay? "
" Well... I'll try. "
" That's the spirit. "
" Hm... Btw, what's your work in our school? " Mary had always been curious about this as the latter was always around...
" I work here as a student's counselor. "
" Oh wow. Really? "
" Yep... I counsel student who are going through a thing or the other. I also give them advices on how to solve their problems and become a better person. "
" That's really cool, sis! "
" Well... Yeah. Advising people makes me happy... It gives me immense joy especially when I see the students I counsel become better versions of themselves, I feel proud! "
" That's really nice, sis... "
" Yeah... You know, making people smile automatically brings a smile to my face too... "
[ A/N : Same here's... ]
" Aw... I love that trait. "
" It's obvious. "
" You know, I also have a sister like that too... "
" Oh, biological sister? "
" Nope... We are closer than blood sisters though. "
" Really? "
" Yep... "
" So why don't you tell me about her? "
" Hm... She's also an African like you... She has dark long hair, her skin is brown in colour... Her orbs are dark... In total she look stunningly beautiful. "
Already, Gabriella had already began envisioning someone who looked like that in her mind.
She of course found that description very familiar but she couldn't connect the dots yet...
" Oh... What's her name? "
" Hm... Malisa. "
' Malisa, Malisa, Malisa.... ' That name kept ringing in Gabriella's head until she finally connected it...
She saw flashes, the memories, the chats, the promises and all that...
" Malisa Bree? "
" Yes... Do you know her, sis?
" Yep... But how did she become your sister? " To say, Gabriella was surprised by this whole set up would be an understatement... She still found it difficult to believe that, Malisa who was supposed to be in the village in Africa was now in Paris...
How could that be possible?
Unless she was brought over her by someone...
But who would have done that possibly without expecting anything in return?
Or could it be possible that her supposedly husband brought her here?
But that too is impossible...
As those old geezers in the village were illiterate and don't care about women...
So many thoughts ran through, Gabriella's mind as she awaited Mary's answer...
It felt like the latter was contemplating whether to tell her about it or not...
Well... She too would understand if it was a secret... As this whole set up seems like a fairy tale to her too...
" Well... It's like My brother and I rescued her from death and brought her here... "
" For real? "
" Yep... " Mary said as she went on to tell, Gabriella the whole story...
She excluded the fact that her brother was a billionaire, she also avoided mentioning his name.
Listening to the entire story, Gabriella felt a pang of guilt... She didn't know why but she felt very guilty...
Perhaps she felt responsible for what happened to, Malisa
Maybe if she had been more responsible then, Malisa would not have gone through what she did...
Still, she felt thankful that her best friend/little sister was rescued timely...
She still couldn't believe that her people could be so wicked and cruel to women...
It sucks really!
And, for the first time, she felt truly disappointed in her dad.
He was supposed to be the king who gives justice to women....
Yet, he sits still even when women are being abused.
" So, Malisa is staying with you, guys, now? "
" Yeah... By the way, how do you know her? "
" Well... We are from the same village. I happen to be her best friend... "
" The king's youngest daughter? Princess Gabriella? " Mary was stunned by this realization.
" Yeah... "
" Oh wow! It's almost unbelievable! Sis Malisa talks a lot about you. "
" Really? "
" Yep... She told us about how you were her only friend... And how you usually help her with practically everything and everything. "
" Well... I just did what any other person would have done... "
" I guess... "
" So can I meet her? "
" Well... " Mary's cell phone rang interrupting her from her words...
She brought out the phone from her backpack before picking up when she saw that it was her brother calling.
" Hello, Brother? "
" Hey, Where are you? "
" I am in the school... "
" We are currently at your school and couldn't find you... "
" Oh... " We? " "
" Yeah... Malisa and I... "
" Okay... I'll meet you in the school compound soon.."
" Alright... Take care... " Aiden said before hanging up the call...
Mary turned to face, Gabriella who had been looking at her expectantly...
" Well, sis. If you want to see, Sis Malisa... Then all you have to do is to come with me now.." Mary said while packing up her hair.
" Really? "
" Yup... Let's go, Sis... " She said carrying her bag.
The duo headed out of the detention room...
Only then did, Mary realize that it was already closing time.
She wondered how time could fly so fast when you are with someone you feel comfortable with...
.....
A/N : Hm... What do you think, guys?
