Chapter 4

The school had just ended, but not for Seri. She had to study for her scholarship test. Seri had never taken a test before, but she wasn't nervous, she seemed like herself, bright and cheery. Seri had studied hard, learning topics which she hasn't even learnt in school. 

It was test day, right after school she went to her house and got ready for the test people to come and test her. She had 1 hour to answer 30 questions about Maths, and English, a question or 2 on science, and 2 about history. She thought the test went well. 

A day after the test was over the Nakamura-Jung family went on holiday to Europe. While the kids went with their grandparents exploring the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, France, and Denmark, James and Mina worked in all of those countries to discuss Japanese and Korean foreign relations. But they did carve out a few days to spend with their family each time they went to a new country. 

One night, in Copenhagen, Denmark, the family was getting ready to meet the Danish Royal Family for dinner, when they got an e-mail saying; "Congratulations Seri Jung, you got a 92% on her test!". The family was ecstatic, to say the least. 

 They all went to Christiansborg Palace with a smile on their face. 

"You all look rather delighted. Why is that Eu Ae?" asked Queen Margrethe of Denmark.

"Oh well, you see my granddaughter has gotten an amazing test score for a scholarship test, so my son and daughter-in-law are deciding where to send her," replied Eu Ae, in her American-like accent. 

"Oh, your granddaughter who is 5 got a scholarship? To which school may I ask?" asked Queen Margrethe, sounding excited and curious. 

"I am not very sure about the names of the schools, but there is one in Korea, one in Taiwan, one in Japan, one in the UK, one in Sweden, and finally one right here in Copenhagen." proudly stated Eu Ae. 

"Really? One right here in Copenhagen? Could it be the Danish Royal Academy?" asked Queen Margrethe. Eu Ae nodded. 

"Oh,  Frederik attended the Danish Royal Academy. Oh yes if they do move here or to any other country will Seri be in boarding or will one of you move with her?" asked Queen Margrethe. 

"Well, to be honest, I am not sure of anything yet, but Seri is too young to be in boarding school, so maybe one of us will move with her so she can achieve her dream," stated Eu Ae. 

"Well I am so proud of her, and if they do decide to send her to Denmark, she can live with me, I will treat her like my very own grandchild." Queen Margrethe said to her longtime friend, Eu Ae.
