She's my Prince

New friend

SAMANTHA's POV

It's a great morning for me. I feel like my day will be great today. First day of school and I hope my first day goes well and I hope it'll last for the rest of the year.

I prepared myself to go to school and since I have my personal maid with me here in my condo for today, I don't have to cook for myself. But she was here on weekdays and go home at 5 in the afternoon, nevertheless, it's still convenient for me.

"Ma'am goodmorning, your breakfast is ready." She politely told me when she saw me descending the stairs.

"Thank you, Mich. " She's only 5 years older than me, so I just call her by name. "And please don't call me ma'am anymore, just call me Sam."

"Yes ma'am— I mean, Sam."

Mich is the daughter of our maid in our house back in Europe. I told to Marie that I was looking for a maid, so she told me that she had a daughter here and asked me to find her.

I just answered her with a smile. "Join me here." I tapped the empty chair next to me.

"Thank you Sam. " She smiled and sat across me and we started talking random things while eating.

I decided to go to university early because I hadn't memorized the place yet and I was still looking for my designated rooms.

I parked my car properly and before getting off I first looked at myself in the rearview mirror just to make sure that I look decent. When I made sure I looked ok, I got out of my car and I noticed someone who came out from the car and students rush into that person. He was surrounded by many students and their backs on me. Maybe he's an actor because he's wearing casual outfit, I decided to ignored him and walked away.

She's so beautiful.

Wow! She's so sexy.

Damn, she's hot, is she new here?

Students are whispering as I walk down the hallway of the BSBA building, when suddenly someone approached me.

"Hi? I haven't seen you around here, freshman?" The man in front of me, asked. I looked at him from head to toe, not meant to be rude but in fairness he's handsome. Tall and with a masculine body, he looks like he belongs in some sports club here and because of the jersey slung over his shoulder. but I just needed one scan and I know to myself that he's not my type. I know, I'm assumed too much but yeah, I'm stood on my ground.

"Uhm yes. I'm looking for room 312. Do you know where it is? "I asked him politely.

"Ah yes I know that. I'll bring you there, by the way I'm Arc and you are? "And he offered his hand.

"Sam." And took his hand for a handshake. I was surprised when he lifted my hand and kissed my knuckles without tearing his gaze from my face.

I blushed for what he did and I could feel sharp look that's burning on my back behind me.

"Nice to meet you Sam. Let's go?" He said, not even aware of the girls showing how envious they are at me. I immediately obeyed and decided to ignore those eyes on me as we both walked towards the other building.

Hey who's with Arc?

She's beautiful and they looked good together.

Who's that girl?

I looked at Arc to know if he could hear them and he was also looking back at me. He smiled to show his perfect white teeth. His smiles are like those smiles in commercials for a toothpaste. "Don't mind them." He said.

"You didn't told me that you were famous, I'm just hoping that no one would pull my hair." I joked.

"Please ignore them. Those were my fans" He bragged with a shrugged. "We're almost there." He pointed a room in the middle.

When we got to the in front of the door I thanked him immediately. "Thank you Arc for accompanying me."

"You're welcome, but lunch together in the cafeteria will be good."

"Sure, see you later then?"

"See you!" He's smiling widely as he waved his hand to me and walked away.

I entered the room and all eyes are on me, maybe because I'm a newcomer in this university. I sat near the window and where I can see the students walking on the hallway. When the professor came, we started to introduce ourselves as transferees like me.

"Smith and his group are all absent again!" The professor hissed while looking behind me. I looked over my shoulder to see five empty seats there and I assumed that's their seats. The professor just let out a rugged sigh before he proceeds to the lesson.

I finished 2 subjects in the morning and while I was packing my things, someone called me loudly which caused everyone to snapped their heads at the door. "Hi Sam!" When I looked up, I saw Arc smiling widely at me.

"Hey arc. ”I smiled in response.

"Let's go?"

I nodded at him as I clings the strap of my bag on my shoulder and we both head straight to the cafeteria. When we arrived at the said place, there were already lot of m students having their lunch. We sat at the end corner because that was the only available table.

"I'll order the food. What do you want to eat" Arc asked.

"I'll have spaghetti and pineapple juice." I answered and open my purse to get my wallet but he stopped me and shook his head.

"No need! It's on me. Besides I'm the one who invited you." He smiled again. Isn't he tired of smiling? because I do, for him.

"Ok if you insist. Thank you." He just nodded and left me.

I wander my eyes inside the cafeteria and they landed in a certain group across our table but they are at the very far end. They make noise too much and they're laughing out loud as if they are not bother by the glares they're receiving from other students who just want to eat their lunch at peace. I also got a glimpsed on the other table, a group girls who are glaring at me, butut I decided to ignor them andI looked back at the group.

Two women and three men, five in total if you don't know how to add them up. The two women who are facing me maybe noticed that I was looking at them, their eyes landed on me and they smiled. They nudge their heads to my direction, as if telling the others about me. The first guy on the left looked over her shoulder and that's when I found out that she's a lesbian, the other two also turned around but suddenly—.

"Hey what are you looking at? Here's your order." Arc suddenly interrupted and blocked my view. My stomach growled when I saw the food so I focused on it and forget about the group from another table.

"Thank you, but how did you made it too fast?" I asked while eating.

"Well I've used my charms." He cockily said and wink at me.

"Conceited" I said and playfully rolled my eyes at him and he just laughed. After I finished my food, I noticed that the noisy group stood up and they were still laughing. When the three turned around, it was exactly that Arc stood up, blocking the view for the second time, so I didn't see the faces of them.

"Come on, you might be late for your next subject. I'll accompany you, you may still get lost. "

"Thank you." I said with an irritated smile but I didn't let him notice it. Arc always has the wrong timing, but I don't know why I'm too curious to see those two, I feel like I'm watching a show that kept me hanging in cliff in every episode.

While Arc and I were walking towards my next subject, I saw the group earlier in the cafeteria and now they are in the field. The three still turned their backs at me while sitting on the bench and the two women stood, their hands on their waist. It looks like the three are being reprimanded for the reason I don't have any idea.

The other stood up and hit the two women before running away. I can't but to smile at that, they are seems too close and comfortable with each other that's why they can do something like that.

"We're going to take the elevator to the 2nd floor. "I turned my gaze to Arc.

"Thanks you, You have helped me a lot." I told him.

"No worries. We're already friends, right?" He asked.

"Of course. You treat me lunch." I joked as we get inside the elevator. There were also some students with us who were looking at us or should I say, mostly at me, but I keep ignoring them.

Arc lead me to my room and excuse himself because he still have training in basketball. He's a basketball Captain that's why he's famous.

I sat down again near the window and wait for the professor to arrived, and when he did, I sat straight. I was surprised when suddenly two women entered, walking through the professor and not giving a care if they're late or what.

The two women in that certain group earlier. It was as if they were looking for something in the empty seat behind me, then their gaze landed on me and they smiled again. I returned the smile shyly and looked away.

There were five empty seats behind me and they sat there. When they sat down, they started talking so loud as if there was no professor in front of them. I didn't mean to listen to them but they talk to loud.

"They didn't attend the class again!"

"Yeah, where do your think they go?"

"Yhen told me that she's going home while C—."

"Ms. Cariño and Ms. Beltran mind if you'll share with us your topic out there?" Our professor asked which caused us to looked at them.

"Sorry Sir it's confidential." Answer by the relatively thin woman with a lump on her forehead, we laughed. Our professor's nose continued to smoke with anger and the smaller girl next to her, laughed.

"Oh?! I'm sorry for interrupting your confidential cases that your discussing with ms. Beltran!" The professor said sarcastically.

"Don't worry sir. You're forgiven." Ms. Cariño said with a mocking smile.

The whole class laughed more loudly. "Oh my god! You're unbelievable Keisha! I will tell this to your mom!"

"Dont worry sir. I'll just tell her on my own so you won't be bothered." The laughter of her friend next to her grew louder, then she looked at me and winked. I shook my head at her silliness before facing the front again.

"Whatever!" It looks like our professor didn't have a chance to win with the debate so he just continued his discussion.

They're brats for sure, but they seems not those brats that bullied weak students like me.

I just focused my attention on our professor until my afternoon class ended. I have nowhere else to go so I decided to visit my bake shop. When I arrived at the University parking lot I immediately got inside my car and sped away.

When I got at the parking lot of the bakeshop I noticed someone standing near the counter, she's too tall not to be notice actually. I was immediately greeted by Edgar, my guard when he saw me walking towards him. "Good afternoon Ma'am."

I turned to him and smiled "good afternoon too." I greeted back and when I returned my eyes inside, the tall guy was no longer in the counter. So I went straight to the manager's office, my crew also greeted me and I just smiled at them. I have my own office but I meed to talk to the manager to ask about the progress of the shop.

I knocked first before entering. "Come in" I heard Alex yelled inside. When I opened the door I saw her behind the mahogany table, reading some folders

"Hi!" I greet cheerfully. Her head automatically looked up from the folder she was reading and smiled widely upon seeing me.

"Hey! Baby girl!" She sprung up from her swivel chair and greeted me with a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

"Stop! I'm not kid anymore!" I whined with a pout.

"You're still my baby girl.. how's your school?" She asked, ignoring my whines.

"Well.. I must say that it's great. I have a new friend e. Arc, an athlete. " I answered.

"Hmm that's good to hear baby. By the way, what brought you here?" She asked

"Nothing, just wanted to know if there's any news? How's the progress?" I asked back as I walked towards the couch.

"It's a hit baby girl. We have a lot of costumer everyday and we're getting great feedback from our customers."

"Well that is so good to hear!" I clapped my hands together and decided not to sit, instead I grabbed her hand and dragged her out of the office.

When we came out, I stood on the corner of the counter while watching the shop. I noticed the person standing earlier at the counter, sitting at the far end near the floor to ceiling glass His back still turned against me while he's talking on the phone. I think he's also the one I saw at university, the one with belong to that group. I was just staring at him when he suddenly stood up. He was about to turned when Alex suddenly popped out and blocked my view. So it wasn't only Arc who loves giving me frustration.

"I told you, your shop is doing great."

"Huh? Ah yeah." I answered, I looked at that person but I still couldn't see his face and he was already riding his car.
