The Prince

'Alarm buzzing. Sarah didn't want to wake up and get ready. She watched True Beauty all night long, and she could barely open her eyes. Argh!! she grunts, switching off the alarm, and turns back to sleep keeping a pillow covering her ears. She checks the time and finds that it is only 6 am "Finally, I can rest my eyes for a couple more hours". A dazzling white light catches her in a whole new world. She sees a prince-charming guy waiting for her on the dance floor. She had dressed in a bright rose-pink dress with a necklace and a pair of green twinkling emerald earrings to match it. With her hair in place, and makeup done, she looks like a girl with whom everyone would fall in love. As she walked closer to him, the more curious and nervous she was to see who that might be. She walked closer to him, but he had turned his back, she led her hand forward and touched his shoulder. He turns about to reveal his face to her and...

"SARAH!" a voice came out of nowhere. Aaaargh! And there she goes down hitting the floor morning. Ouch! Sarah opens her eyes, she can barely open it, and sees her sister posing in her angry pose. Maya continues screaming, "Wake up you slug. Do you know what time it is?". She rubs her eyes yawns for a minute and checks her phone. Her narrowed eyes became wider and wider with every second. "Ohhhh NOOOOO!!!!!" she screams like anything. "I'm running late for school again. I knew I shouldn't have stayed up all night" she sighs and grunts. She stands up yawns again and rushes to get ready. In the bathroom, while brushing she says, " Oh, I was about to see his face. Bad timing*" Right at that moment her mom screams from the kitchen scolding her for being lazy in the morning. The fear of getting beaten up struck her right then and she rushed to her closet to choose a dress and started getting ready. After 45 mins there she was looking great and ready for school. She went to the kitchen took the toast that her mother made for her and ran to school.

In school, the teacher had already started taking attendance. Seeing Sarah by the door she allows her to come in. The moment Sarah stepped foot in the class, Mrs.Black started scolding her for being late. "Ohh Welcome miss, you are late again I hope classes aren't that important for you. And I must say this school must be run by your family, that's why you can come and leave the class as per your wish," she said sarcastically. "I-I....Umm, I'm sorry I had some important work to do last day that I had me kept up all night and so you know I was tired in the morning. Sorry." "Well then Sarah, you could have not come to the school then and would have spared us from your existence" answered Mrs.Black still annoyed. "Since you are late I'm obliged to punish you," she said excitingly. Sarah went forward towards the teacher's desk. The teacher reaches for her hand and beats her with a stick 'THUD'. "Now, go back to your seat," the teacher said trying to make herself look angry while hiding her enjoyment.

Sarah goes to her seat beside her friend Kiara. "Looks just fine from the last day. And I must add she was enjoying it, she's a devil for real!" says Kiara feeling bad for her friend. But it seems that something else was going on with Sarah's head. She was thinking all about the dream and a snap brought her back to the class. Sarah continues to talk about True Beauty she saw last night to Kiara."Ohh, so that was the important work you mentioned huh!" Kiara said mockingly. "Well, I saw it too at almost 3 am, and boy it was fun. But unlike you, I woke up early 'cause I have no interest in getting beaten up by the devil in the morning", Sarah nodded. Sarah turned to her friend's side and said she saw a dream, where a Prince-charming was waiting to dance with her. Both the girls continued to be curious and chit-chat, and it's a good thing the teacher was so into her teaching that she didn't notice them. Sarah continues, "Well the dream was amazing but could have been more exciting and wonderful if I could have seen the face. Aah, I wish I could today"...
