Is it a curse or a blessing? - Chapter 3：Royal School

After 5 hours of travelling,I finally arrived.The school was gigantic,it was like my castle,but double the size!How am I supposed to find my way out!I guess I should ask Ally for a tour, since she has been in this school for a long time now.Then I walked out of the carriage.I climbed up the stairs and open a big door.

-Why hello Miss Crystal,said the secretary.

-Hello…I said.

-I’m Miss Emily, one the secretary of the school.

-Eum..May I get my dorm key and some information paper please?I said politely.

-Of course!Here you go,she handed me my keys,and some documents.

-Thanks you very much!

-Your welcome,now go find your dorm.

-Oh!Yeah!Well good evening Miss Emily.

Following the map that Miss Emily gave,I head to the locker aisle.I’ve found my locker!Then I put my code and open it.Inside had a 3 uniforms fit for me.There was the normal and casual uniform that I had to wear everyday,a sports uniform for P.E,aka.the worst subject in the world and last,a fancy uniform for a school announcement or meeting.After grabbing the uniforms,I closed the door locker and go to my dorm.I open the door with my key and I look around.Wow,this place is like an apartment,it has a kitchen,bathroom,dining room and an bedroom.At least this place is affordable and not princess like. After exploring,I start to unpack my things.The wall of my small bedroom was a light purple,I guess I don’t have to waste an hour of my life just to paint,the school is really amazing!And they also gave me a little comfy bed.After 3 hours,I finally finished unpacking and decorating my little dorm.I am very hungry now,better start cocking my ramen.

When I finished my dinner,I go outside of my dorm to explore the big school.According to my map,my room is kind of far from the classes.Well that’s what I get for getting a cheap dorm…If my calculation is right,it should take me 10 mins to get there,great…Well I should really get use to this routine.I should visit the cafetaria,since it’s in the middle of the school.The cafeteria was really big,and was supposedly filled,but since that right now is 8 pm,there was no one.On the menu there was croissant,sandwich,soup,coffee and a lot of other foods.But all of them was really expensive…Like one cup of coffee was 6$,soo expensive!The king only gave me 500$ to spend,but this is not enough for a month of food.I don’t want to go back there every 2 weeks.I guess I have to work or make my own food.GREAT…Then I’ve explored more,the classroom,bathroom,ect…At 9h30,I returned to my appartement and go to bed.

Next day…

So I wake up at 5 am because class starts at 7h30.I took a nice warm shower and put on my casual uniform.Then I go to the cafeteria.I buy breakfast menu which cost 15$,this meal is a plate of eggs,toast,bacon and milk.So expensive!Well at least it’s only for today.I took my tray of food and look for an empty chair.When I walk around I saw people stare at me,closed the empty seat next to them and I also heard people muttered at their friend somes things.

-Block sit next to you with your bag,hurry she’s coming!A girl said.

-Ew…She has two different eyes!

-Isn’t that the emotionless eyes?

-No,it’s the unlucky eye!Another said.

Why are they so mean to me,I did nothing to them.Just ignore them Moon!I cover my other eye with my hair and I go to the back.

-Over here!A girl screamed.

Wait,is she talking to me?I think so…I go towards the girl.The table that she sat on was kinda close to one trash can but close to a giant widow with a beautiful view.

-Hi!The girl said.

-hi…I said.

-So I can see that you were rejected by the others…She said.

-Yeah…But what about you?I responded.

-The same story…

-ahh…

Then an awkward silent just passed by.

-Oh!You can sit here,eum,you must be tired of just standing there.She said.

-Thank you,I said.

So I started eating my breakfast and she continued eating.

-Well,I’m only half blood royalty.My dad,a prince,married a normal woman,no royalty.And I like normal clothes not big dress,and no makeup,always in a ponytail and glasses.

-Ah…Your very lucky…You aren’t a real princess so you can always wear anything you want,I’m always supposed to dress.I really want to be free and fly away…

-Poor you…she said.Ah!I haven’t introduced myself yet,my name is Jennifer or Jenni for short and i’m from the Heart family.

-Well,my name is Moon,or Moonlight Crystal.Nice to meet you.

-So…eum…She quietly said.

-Eum…So back to where we were,do you want to hear my story?It’s okay if you don’t want…I said.

-Oh!Of course!I’m kinda curious about you,i’m sorry if i’m peeking to much in your life.She responded.

-Oh!Not at all!So when I was in fourth grade,my mom,or the queen died.So i’m with my dad,which I don’t really get along very well.And just recently I got a stepmother and a step sister.I don’t get along with my stepmom.And my stepsister,well I’ve never really talk to her sooo I don’t really know her…

-I’m very sorry about your loss,but what is the name of your stepsister,I might know her,because it’s been a long time since I’ve been here,and I work as a student council,even though I’m judge.

-Well her name is Alice,I think that her full name is Alice Maria Crystal,I think.I don’t know if they already changed the family name.

-Mhh…No I don’t know her,I think she is new like you,so maybe she is not a full blood royalty,that went in this school.

-Yeah,probably…I don’t have a lot of information about her past nor family.I said.

-I could search some information for you if you want.I can get info really easily because of the student council.Plus,I literally have nothing to do in the office.

-Sound like a plan!Oh!And thank you very much for helping me.But what can I do for you in exchange?I respond.

-Well…I really want us to be friends if that okay…I’m really getting lonely lately.

-That’s sooo fine,I mean,yeah i really want to be friends,I don’t want to be lonely and just being judged alone.

-I totally understand you,she said.

Then the bell rong.

-Oh No!We are late,she said.

-Euh,see you at lunch!I said.

We rushed to our first class of the day.But of course we went separate ways because she is a senior.After running through the hallway,I opened the door of the class A-4.

-So Moonlight Crystal isn’t here?A man said.

-Euh…I’m here…I said,breathing loudly.

-Miss Crystal,you’re late at your first day,you should be ashamed of yourself,he said.

-I’m very very sorry mister,I responded.

-Please take a sit miss Crystal,anyway let’s get back to taking the attendance.

I go sit at the back,where it was quiet.

-Alice Crystal?The teacher said.

-Here Mister Pouletin,Alice said.

-Good,everybody is here.Now let’s begin the math lesson.

Ah…I think she will be the teacher’s pet.

-So can someone tell me the answer to number one?How about Moonlight?He said.

-Euh…I muttered.

If square minus 6,it should be 18, right?

I stand up.

-Eum…I think that the answer is 20…

-Wrong,miss Moonlight.Now can somebody else answer the question?

Embarrassed I sat down.

-The answer is about 0,2449,Alice said.

-Correct!Bravo Miss Alice,the teacher said.

Ah…Now is the right time to call her a teacher pet’s…

After the class ended,the teacher told me to wait.After that everybody left the classroom,he started to talk.

-Miss Crystal,take a seat,even though it’s not gonna too long,he murmured.

I sat on the chair.

-Lady Crystal,do you know that being late to the first day of class is very bad?He started.

-Yes,I know that very clearly…i said with my head down…

-Do you know the consequence?

-No I don’t,Mister Pouletin…

-Well,you can be expelled…

-What!But-but!…

-I know this very not fair…but this is the school rules..I have no control of it…i cannot leave you without a consequence,so…You have to go to detention after school…I’m sorry,but that’s the best I can do…

-….Ok…Thank you sir for letting me a chance,I promise I won’t be late for class for the rest of this semester…i owe you a lot,sir…

-You may leave.

-Ok…i politely said.

I walk out of the class and close behind me the door.Well,detention or expelled is better?Detention!Duh!What can go wrong???

———————–After the last class—————————————

Now where’s detention?I go to one corridor to another trying to find detention…Just how big is this school!Finally!After 15 min of running around,I finally find a door,where it is written “detention” and a beware sign?Why is there a danger sign?What is inside a detention that’s so dangerous that someone had to put a sign?A dog with three head?A demon?A spider?A torture device?Anything that is from the haunted house?But…This is a royal school…Who would dare to torture or scare a royal blood?Anyway, what could go wrong…I open the door.what I find is a not so clean room.Well it’s not that it is an attic from the 90es …But it hasn’t been clean for…One month,I guess?Anyways,I don’t see any clown or some sort…So why is there a danger sign?I look at every corner,I found no one…Except chairs,a board written”you are in detention,reflect on your problem”,tables,etc…What is there to you make die?Jumping out of the widows?Well every classroom have a window…Makes no different…I look around, again,to make sure that it is really safe.

-Whaaaaa!I screamed.

I found a guy sitting on the floor.He was handsome and dreamy…”Stop Moon!It is not the time you start dreaming about a guy!”I thought to myself.Anyways,I see blood dripping from his arm,leg and face…What caused this terrible wound?Was he bullied?Abused?If so,why would he be in detention and not in the nurse’s office?Should I help him or not?I kind of feel sympathy towards him…Even though I don’t know the reason behind his scars…FINE!I’m gonna help him…I look around and find a medical kit.I wash his legs and arms,put bandages.While cleaning his wound on his face,he wakes up.

-What are you doing!?A grumpy voice was heard.

-Whaaa!!I screamed,again.Well I’m trying to help you can’t you see,anyways don’t move,I’m trying to clean you face.
