Laureen was about to say something but she decided not to because they have already reached her dormitory room.

"Well, here's my stop." she lets out a polite smile, while looking a bit awkward.

"Yes. You'd better take a rest so you can feel better. I'll see you later at dinner, okay?" Prince Galen responded, while staring at her as if she's the most beautiful woman in the world.

"Alright." it was the only word that came out from her mouth.

After a few minutes, Galen started walking away to go back to the construction site to resume his work. And once he is out of sight, Laureen lets out a deep sigh.

"I need to finish my undercover mission as soon as possible before something happens." she murmured to herself.

Afterwards, she decided to go inside the dorm room to take a nap to relieve her headache...

    I squinted my eyes away from the burning sun as we made our way outside the airport. We just had a flight from Tokyo to Naha, Okinawa where I am standing right now. I silently stepped inside the car and once I closed the door, the vehicle accelerated its speed and drove away from the airport's parking lot. I noticed that we are now in the highway, and I can see a lot of tropical trees, and I can also see the ocean nearby. Some kids with the same age like me might be jumping for joy... When you're in Okinawa, everyone will think that you're in a middle of a vacation. A holiday. But sadly, it was the opposite. I had a different reason why I need to be here. I glanced at a certain lady who was in her early fifties. She warmly smiled at me, and I gave her a polite nod. Afterwards, I turned my attention back on the road. The lady sitting beside me is my adoptive mother, Chieko Nishikawa. She

    The next morning.I squinted my eyes as the rays of the morning sun clouded my vision. I yawned and sat on my bed as I tried to remember the previous events. The last goodbye with my real mother... The Social Services house. The adoption process. Boarding the plane to Okinawa. My sister Mika. And now,I'm sitting on a different bed.What happened to me for the passed few months feels like a dream. But she knows that she can't run away from the reality...My train of thoughts stopped in a halt when I heard someone knocking at the door. I groaned inwardly. I'm not yet ready to havea "talk" with the other members of my "new family."But then the soft knocks didn't stop. With a heavy sigh, I practically dragged myself out from bed,and walked towards the door. As I opened the door, one petite cute girl greeted me."Good morning, my dear sister!" I froze awkwardly as I st

    The next morning."Good morning, Doctor Nishikawa!" one energetic voice suddenly woke me up from my deep slumber.I stared at the ceiling, half-awake and half- asleep, while trying to recollect my thoughts."-How's your father? Is he taking his medications regularly?" I heard my adoptive mother's voice."Yes, it's all thanks to you, he's feeling a lot better now!" answered that annoying voice again.I curiously stood up and pulled open the window's curtain. I saw Doctor Nishikawa talking to a tanned-skin boy who's about my age. Or maybe a little older. He has this unique aura that can brighten up a gloomy atmosphere.I then glanced at his bicycle's basket and I saw a stack of newspaper inside."A newspaper boy." I whispered to myself.As if in a cue, the boy glanced up and he accidentally met my gaze. I couldn't look away as I froze because of shock.

I gasped in shock when I realized that it's almost lunchtime!Doctor Nishikawa and Mika might be back anytime soon!I was already walking at the sandy beach while I was holding unto my bicycle. As soon as I reached the main road, I faltered on my steps when I heard one, irritated voice."Would you cut it out?"I frowned, while thinking that the voice sounded familiar... I discreetly took another step to see what was going on.There were four boys throwing stuff to each other,while laughing out loud.And there's another boy watching them with a resigned expression on his face."Oh! You're the newspaper boy!" I suddenly blurted out loud, and my voice made them look at me. They all stared towards my direction.The newspaper boy frowned at me, and it was clear that he didn't like the way I interrupted their "fun." ( If you w

I heard the newspaper's voice again.The crowd lets out an enthusiastic series of shouts."You'd better prepare all the meal stubs, newspaper boy!" I glared at him."Oh,don't worry, I got them right here. See?" Van showed me 10 meal stubs on his hand.I gave him another challenging stare."I'll definetely won't lose to you, newspaper boy!" I muttered at him."Let's see about that." Van shot back, as he gave me a playful wink.At the same time, Van's brother, Ren, and Mika are just looking at them."Are you sure your sister wants to do this?" asked the worried Ren to Mika.Mika just sighed."Looks like it." she answered.Van started counting.
