The next day.
Ten years old Jemmy was lying on her bed while studying for her upcoming exam.
Though passing the exam would be a piece of cake for her as she was an A+ student but she knew she needed to study harder as the entrance examination of Royal Queens is quite tough.
The school is not only an expensive one as it can only be attended by the lads of the Rich and influential in the society. The educational standards of the school are also high and often only a minority of students could pass their entrance examinations.
Therefore, Jemmy knew she had to study harder.
" Jemmy you've been studying for three hours straight you deserve a break. " Emmy's robotic voice rang in the room as she walked towards Jemmy with a cup of warm milk in her hands.
Jemmy sat up and collected the glass of milk, Emmy handed it over to her, she took sips of it before looking back up at Emmy.
" But, Emmy. I need to study hard, you Know the .... " 
" The cut-off mark of the school is high, isn't that what you want to say? " Robot Emmy cut her off.
" Yes. " 
" Don't I Know This? " She queried, " Haven't you heard the quote, all work no play makes Jack a dull boy? " 
" I have but.... " 
" What time is it now, Jemmy? " 
" 11:30, why? " Jemmy asked confused.
" You've been studying for three hours and thirty minutes now! You deserve a break! " 
" But... " 
" Do you want your brain to explode? I know you have to study to pass your exams but you have to take breaks too, you know. " She advised, but seeing Jemmy not relenting, she continued,  " You can continue studying later in the afternoon. " 
" Okay. " Jemmy drank all the milk in one goal before standing up, " So what are we going to do now during my break as you call it? " Jemmy enquired.
" Um..  why don't we... " 
" Hey, Jemmy!!! " Lucia's super enthusiastic voice rang all of a sudden in the room interrupting Robot Emmy from her words.
" Hey, Big Sis! " Jemmy squealed as she ran towards Lucia who was putting on a purple and white top on denim jeans.
Lucia Embraced Jemmy the minute the latter got to where she was.
" How are you doing, Jimmy? " She enquired when they broke the hug.
" I am doing great, Big Sis. " She grinned.
" That's good to hear. " They both walked towards Jemmy's bed and sat on it.
" Um. What would you like to have, Miss Lucia? " Robot Emmy asked.
" A glass of water is okay. " Replied Lucia.
" Alright, I'll go get it. " Emmy said as she began advancing towards the door.
" So what have you been doing all morning, Jemmy? " Lucia inquired.
" I have been studying. " Jemmy announced proudly as she showed Lucia the books she had been studying.
Glancing at the textbooks on the bed, Lucia caught sight of the science textbook, she picked it up and checked the cover. " This was the textbook I used when I was preparing for my entrance examination. " She announced.
" Wow! Really? " Jemmy inquired Suprised.
" Yeah, it's just that this one is more advanced than the one I used. " 
" Yeah. " 
" So what's your best subject so far, Jemmy? " 
" I love maths and French. " She announced.
" Oh, what about Science and Technology? " 
" Well, I like them but they are not my favorite subjects. " 
" So what's your future ambition? " 
" Well, I want to be an actress. " Jemmy Replied smiling.
" Oh wow! I bet you are going to become a great actress! " Lucia said ruffling the young girl's hair.
" Yeah, Thanks! " 
" What about you, Big Sis? Why did you choose to be a singer and a model and not something else? " 
" Well, that's because I just love being in the spotlight and it's also what I want to do. " 
" Okay. But I guess Nowadays some students don't have the opportunity of choosing what they want to become in the future as their family decides it all for them. " 
" Yeah. And it's really sad, as they are often forced into becoming what they don't want to which is quite disastrous if care isn't taken. " 
" Hm. " 
" Do you know what, Jemmy? " 
" Uh? " 
" Sometimes when we are confused and can't seem to make a decision, I guess it's a good idea to follow our heart and not our brain, as our brain might be wrong. " 
" Why, Sis? I thought the brain is always logical.." 
" Yeah it is but sometimes in life, we can't just follow logic. Take for example you want to become an artist but because you think you might not earn from being an artist, so you decide to be a lawyer and you end up becoming it. Though you might end up being a great lawyer and earn millions still, the longing will be there. You might find yourself not being Happy with what you are doing despite the millions you are earning from it. " She explained.
" Oh, but I once heard someone saying that money can bring one happiness. " 
" Well, some people think that way but I don't. True happiness can't be bought with money, Happiness sometimes doesn't revolve around material things, it's finding love in people and things around us. Can you imagine being Ruthlessly rich but being lonely? Can we call that happiness? " She queried.
" No. " Jemmy shook her head negatively. 
" I have heard of a lot of rich people who aren't happy but are wallowing in Depression. Since they have money why can't they just buy the happiness they need? " 
" That's Impossible. " 
" Exactly! You Know, a person might be poor but still, be happy. Happiness comes from being contented and satisfied with what one has, it also comes from being yourself and not comparing oneself with others. " She explained.
" Hm. " 
" So Jemmy, sometimes we just need to follow our hearts despite the odds. " 
" Okay.." 
" Umm. Miss Lucia the Water. " Robot Emmy handed the glass of water to Lucia.
" Thank you. " Lucia said as she took the water and drank it.
  " Um. Why don't we go out shopping, Jemmy? " Lucia suggested.
" That's a good idea! " Jemmy squealed.
" So it's decided then. " Lucia took out her phone and sent a text to Lucia asking for the latter's permission.
She got the reply to her text in just five minutes, it was like the latter had been waiting for her texts.
Aunt Lucy: It's Alright, Lucia. Just make sure to take care and since you'll be shopping at Queen's Mall you don't need to pay for your purchase. Just inform the cashier who you are and it will be taken care of. 
Lucia: Alright, thanks.
Aunt Lucy: Hm, have fun, Make sure to come back before dinner.
Lucia: Okay.
Aunt Lucy: Hm, Take care.
Lucia then dropped her phone and looked up at Jemmy.
" I think you have to change your outfit to something more casual," she said.
" Okay, " Jemmy Replied before heading towards her closet and bringing out a Red and White Loose-fitting top and Red pants.
" That's nice. Go change now. " Lucia urged and Jemmy nodded before going into the bathroom.
" Will you be okay alone at home, Emmy? " Lucia turned to the robot.
" Of course and I am not alone as the housekeeper is around today. " She replied.
" Oh, that's good then. " 
" Hm. " 
They left for the mall minutes later when Jemmy finished dressing up.
They purchased lots of Stuffs and enjoyed shopping to the fullest.
The duo didn't have to worry about spending too much as their bills will be well taken care of so there's nothing to worry about!
