In the classroom after the last exams have been written
Giselle Mikal
(Sigh) Finally done with the examination. Hope I do well...Who am I kidding? Of course I'll do well. (Smiles proudly)
Giselle Mikal
Oh right... The girls asked me to meet them on the school's park. Better get going...
Giselle goes to the park and meets only one of her besties,Laura Kirry..
Laura Kirry

Giselle Mikal
Yeah sorry to keep you waiting (Looks around)
Laura Kirry

Laura Kirry
She went to get us ice cream
Giselle Mikal
Really? That great. I'm famished.
Giselle Mikal
By the way how did the examination go for you??
Laura Kirry
(frowns) Ugh!! It was suffocating. But thanks to you I guess I might do well this time
Giselle Mikal
Don't worry. You'll do just great
Giselle pats her shoulder
Laura Kirry
Finally you're here. Now where is my ice cream
Esther Hilid

Shows them a rubber bag with three ice creams in their cups
Laura Kirry
Yeah no kidding. I like the chocolate one!!
Takes the chocolate ice cream from the bag
Esther Hilid

Giselle Mikal

Laura Kirry
Hmm...mmmm.. Well that's good
Giselle Mikal

Esther Hilid

Both take their ice cream
They go to sit at their favorite spot. Giselle is reading a novel, Laura is playing games on her phone and Esther is braiding Laura's hair...
Laura Kirry

Esther Hilid
So I heard our school will be expecting some guests soon.
Laura Kirry
Wow really,oh no is it the supervisor?!
Esther Hilid
Nope... Those who were talking about it sounded like those guests were big deal. Probably rich folks...
A notification appears on Laura's phone
Laura Kirry
Hey guys, check this out. "King Richard of Zakaling Kingdom arrives with family at the Golden lake airport"
Esther Hilid
Whoa! King Richard of Zakaling Kingdom! He is one of the most powerful and richest kings. And his son is the perfect prince. Omg the perfect prince (holds her flushed cheek )
Laura Kirry
Er?? Ok... What do you mean Prince Louis
Esther Hilid

Laura Kirry
Well... I don't know what's so great about that pretty boy (blushes)
Esther Hilid
Haha, you like him too. don't you?(teases)
Laura Kirry
What of course not (shakes head while blushing)
Esther Hilid
Haha. Ohhh... What about you Giselle?...
Esther Hilid
Eh?! You're not even listening to us!?(Irritated)
Giselle Mikal
Huh?What?( hadn't stopped reading ever since the gossip started. actually didn't hear a thing )
Laura Kirry
Ugh! What are you ready anyway. Is it more important than spending time with your besties 😤
Giselle Mikal
Hey cut it out. Give it back 🥲
Esther Hilid
No way... Hey Laura over here over here. ( signals Laura to throw it over)🤗
Throws book to her. The three start to catch the book when it's been thrown by the other
Giselle Mikal
Esther! Please cut it out. Don't throw give it to me....
Esther Hilid
Haha... No way ...Haha try and catch it
Giselle Mikal
No please wait
Esther throws it hard. No one is able to catch and it falls on the ground at the feet of someone. He takes it and walks towards them. He gives it to Giselle..
Giselle Mikal
Ummm... thanks (Looks at the boy and gasp ...)You!!😨
Louis Galaton
Long time no see... Giselle
Giselle Mikal
What are you doing here brat 😠
Laura Kirry
Omg... prince Louis Galaton. It's the perfect prince..
Esther Hilid
Prince Louis?!! Oh my God!! It's you , really you...
students gather around. Everyone,a fan of the prince. Some even start taking pictures. Girls are screeching and blushing at the blushing.The boys are admiring his fancy clothes. All except Giselle.
Esther Hilid
Oh wow...but Giselle, why's he looking at you. Do you know him personally? Say something (nudges her as she whispers to her)
Giselle Mikal
Hmph! I don't think I have something to say to this arrogant brat...
Begins walking away but someone grabs her hand.
Giselle Mikal
you... let go!!
Louis Galaton
Let's talk first
Louis Galaton
Would you listen ow
Giselle bites his hand and he let go
Giselle runs but stops in front of a sophisticated looking couple with bodyguards
Giselle Mikal
Uncle Richard... Aunt Lana...Why... what are you doing here
Queen Lana
Hello darling...we want to talk to you
King Richard
Yes Giselle. It's an important matter
Louis Galaton
Mother, Father...this animal bit me
King Richard
Louis Galaton, watch your tongue
Queen Lana
That is no way to talk to a lady as beautiful as Giselle
Louis Galaton
Hmph!! Beautiful?...More like hideous (Murmur)
Louis Galaton
(Sigh) I'm sorry Princess Giselle ( bows slightly) Please forgive my insolence
Giselle Mikal
Ppt... Whoa,whoa...Wait, wait ...Did you just call me princess (Laughs)
Louis Galaton
(annoyed)I know right? you don't deserve to be called that...
Giselle Mikal
(annoyed)Well...
King Richard
Enough!! Giselle, Louis we didn't come here to watch you two argue. We came here to talk about a private matter.
Queen Lana
Right,... Sir John please clear the area!
Queen Lana
And you Ruth, arrange a place so we can have our conversation
John snaps his fingers,and other bodyguards take the students away...
Laura Kirry
Hey what are you guys doing,let me and my friend go... Giselle!!
Esther Hilid
Oh no, they're taking us away. But what about Giselle....
Laura Kirry
Yeah...Hey Giselle... Will you be ok?
Giselle Mikal
It's okay, I know this people. I'll see you guys later. BFL!!
Esther Hilid
Well alright... BFL...
Laura Kirry
Take care Giselle BFL. Come on Es, let's go...
Ruth
Your majesties, everything is set. Please follow me...
They follow her to a tree. Where under there is a table, chairs and tea
Everyone one sit except Giselle...
Queen Lana
come sweetheart,sit beside me and in front of Louis
Giselle Mikal
Ok Aunt Lana...
King Richard
Now... let's start...
Given to me
Queen Lana
Well... it so happened that Louis here is betrothed to someone...
Giselle Mikal
Pft... really,is that so?😏😏 (glancing at Louis)
Louis Galaton
I seriously wouldn't be laughing if I were you...😒
Giselle Mikal
Why? You're seem to hate that you've been betrothed. So I just can't help but tease you...(Giggling)
Louis Galaton
I warned you 😒😒
King Richard
(Giselle seems not bothered at all that Louis is going to marry, she's even teasing him. Does she really have no feelings for my son)
Queen Lana
(Giselle doesn't look bothered. I thought she had feelings for Louis, turns out I was utterly wrong. Even after keeping them together for years when they were young,they still don't have feelings for each other. They even don't seem to be friends. How on Earth did it go for them when they were young...?)
Giselle Mikal
Anyway,why are you telling me auntie?
Queen Lana
Well because (hesitate) ... Because you are the one he is betrothed to.
King Richard
Yes,my dear. Years ago you two were betrothed to each other.
Giselle Mikal
I...I don't understand!!! I thought royalties marry royalties. And I'm no royalty, I'm not even that rich!
Queen Lana
Oh no dear, you are wrong. You are royalty,you are the princess of Kristin...
Giselle Mikal
What!! no,no,no ... I'm not a princess of Kristin. I'm just an ordinary girl... If I were a princess, I would be living in a castle and wearing fancy gowns. And vital of all,my parents would tell me...
Queen Lana
They would, but they had to keep it a secret for... some reason.
King Richard
Your uncle is recently the King of Kristin. However your father was supposed to be the the recent King, and you the next heir, but due to some unknown reasons Your uncle became the king...
Giselle Mikal
But why did they never tell me 😢
King Richard
We don't know, but maybe they would tell you if you ask them...
Giselle Mikal
Ok I will uncle...But I want to say something to you...
Queen Lana
Go ahead sweetheart
Giselle Mikal
I...I don't want to marry Louis!!!
Queen Lana
(worried)But why ... Louis is very suitable, he's perfect for you...
Giselle Mikal
No he is not, he's mean and ugly....
Giselle Mikal
I don't want to marry such a person...
Louis Galaton
Whoa, whoa, whoa, who are you calling ugly? You are so arrogant. You think I want to marry you? I know your character, I'm only putting up to this because my royal duties require me to do so. Of all the girls in the world, one thing's for sure, I don't want to marry you.!
Giselle Mikal
Then don't, cancel it. Since both of us don't want this marriage then let's cancel it...
King Richard
Enough! You can't... This marriage is very important, for both our kingdoms. It is in fact the order of The Great King...
The Great King refers to the grandfather of King Richard . He is still alive, and very wise. He brought the idea of getting Giselle and Louis married. it was agreed on , since no one could defy his order
Giselle Mikal
The Great King?? He is known as.one of the greatest king who ever lived and ruled. He is really powerful,no one can go against is order. Does this mean I have no choice? I have to marry Louis?
Queen Lana
Dear listen, I know you do not want this,but what I do know is that if you and prince Louis could hang out a little more. Maybe a miracle might happen
King Richard
Yes you two could fall for each other,thus making it easy to accept your marriage. So please give my son some time to court you ...
Giselle Mikal
hmmm,so we are having a deal right?
Giselle Mikal
Since it was your grandfather who made this decision, I can't defy it. But if I must marry you, I don't want it to happen right away. I want time. So give me time and I'll...try to marry you
Giselle Mikal
Ugh deal?(extend hand)
Queen Lana
Splendid!! You two have no idea the joy you've brought us
King Richard
Precisely, I tell father the good news
Queen Lana
So Giselle,you are graduating weeks later right ?
Queen Lana
well after you graduate,do you think there will enough time for Louis to court you??
Giselle Mikal
Well yeah, I guess
King Richard
Good,then we shall take our leave. we will speak with your principal first, so you chat. Louis, I'll call you later
The king and his queen get up to leave. Leaving the two teenagers alone with some bodyguards
Moments after the two endured silence. Giselle heard a chuckle...
Giselle Mikal
What's funny??
Louis Galaton
Haha you really think I didn't get your deal
Giselle Mikal
W...what are...you talking about
Louis Galaton
ha! you said you'd try to marry me, not you would marry me
Louis Galaton
In the end,after I court you and it's time to face the deal, you would say you only promised to try to marry me
Louis Galaton
I'm not stupid, princess
Giselle Mikal
Don't call me that!! Anyway if you knew I was trying to trick you,why did you agree
Louis Galaton
Because I also want to ' try ' to marry you
Louis Galaton
(Sipping his tea and getting up)I just want to warn you. If anything goes wrong in my family because of your deal, I won't let you off
Louis Galaton
I know you hate me,but you were given to me by royalty. You have to be my wife
Giselle Mikal
(Blushes) does that mean you want to marry me...
Louis Galaton
Like I said earlier,no. besides I'm already in love with someone.
Louis Galaton
Well then, I guess I have to cooperate with you to make your deal work
Giselle Mikal
Yeah, that way we can both be with the ones we truly love
Giselle Mikal
sure,but if....
John
My prince,the king sent me to get you. we are going back home
Louis Galaton
Ok I'm coming (Turns to Giselle and takes her hand and kisses the knuckles) we'll meet again future wife
Giselle Mikal
(Blushes hard) W... what...you...how could you...
Giselle Mikal
Jerk! I will never fall in love with you . Never!!
Tell...
Giselle Mikal
(Turns around) Laura, Esther... hey
Laura Kirry
Girl what happened over there
Esther Hilid
Yeah do you really know their majesties of Zakaling Kingdom??
Giselle Mikal

Mr.George Mikal

Mr.George Mikal
