Thick black curly hair, round eyes, light baby pink lipstick, the same black suit as that of Ren , a wireless connection wire which came up from her waist to her right ear. Her hair was tied tightly in a low pony and her attire perfect and bold. But there was a gentle smile on her face. She looked older but not older than the guy sitting on the chair in front of the table. He was partially hidden  by the bodyguard in the front, Lucinda.

She didn't look like a bodyguard. Her aura was itself completely different than that of Ren's .

She looked glad to see the girl, who was busy figuring out the external chara of the girl who looks older than her by some 5 or 6 years.

"Nora , this is your new teacher , his name is Stephen. He will be teaching you all Commerce and Business along with Marketing, Computers and Language. And ,you might have met him before....He was the bartender in the party..”
Lucinda added.

“ Wait , what !? Its that guy , the guy who looked like he cared, but he needn't...." Nora ,yet again without thinking ran her mouth.
“.. I thought you were just a bartender, seems like you have other jobs. ”
Nora asked astounded, but then accepted the fact as fast as a metro train.
Nora doesn't know why she should or shouldn't be astounded or surprised anymore. So many things have been happening all in one go.

She remembered the day when she entered the household as a maid and now she has a boyfriend and is an official staff of the biggest and largest company in the world , Jacques Enterprises. Now the split has caused all the effect. Now its The Lorentz , name of Dan's  grandfather .
Mr. James weren't in good terms with his father Lorentz Jacques but Lorentz in his old age realised his faults ,except the fact he was the one to bring up the Jacques Company, he did love his grandchildren. He got to love them only for 6 years and then passed away. The only person who liked Dan in his family was was his grandpa, even though Lorentz was bedridden when Dan was 5 years old , his grandpa used to tell him stories and all things good. They  loved each other dearly. And told him importance of family.

Ren knew everything and by time he told so much to Nora. And each day as the time passes she keeps on realising the bitter truth about Dan before she came to the house. The bad memories which haunts him and the good memories which he treasures more than his life.

The new teacher had a smirk on his tanned face .
"Well , what shall we start with , miss Nora.?”

"You know, we have met each other before and you were a bartender and I thought you were.."
Nora was suddenly interrupted by the teacher's words.

"..just a bartender ?.."

They looked like they would just get along well.
The teachings started and they went on just fine.

........
“....What the hell!! Why didn't you tell me earlier all about this...?..Why now? Are you seriously playing around or something! Just because you got all the information and an active Oracle still running in your brain, doesn't mean anything..."
Dan ran to his bodyguard and friend Ren, pulled him by his collar and yelled at him with burning eyes..

Ren kept on struggling, the words kept on coming ..
“..sorry I knew you would react that is exactly why I kept it out,...I am sorry..”
Ren was sorry and he was still under his master's hands.

“...so why now , of all this time , why now....?”
Dan was desperate , he was scared , he didn't want this to happen, and each time when he finds the light closing on him, he can't bear...of loosing chances. Cause this will be the last and the final time.....his last chance of proving his ' blazing will ' would come true....

“...you have her now ,and I was sure that when you get her ,you would be able to control your powers...if I had told you then , then you would have gone berserk, and it would end badly....master this is only a possibility,  that this would happen....”
Ren said with his head down.

“..I can't take chances for her....” Dan said loosening his hands on him.
Ren crushed to the wall , came to his feet, sighing. He looked up to his master, feeling relieved , that much worse could have happened. He was happy that his master had changed that he became more matured.

But soon his face went back to the emotionless , with a tinch of fear...
"..you have no choice..." Ren said.

Dan halted his steps and he turned back ,turned back to Ren.
"Then, I will make the choices, I am not going to let her go to the fate made by some old historic ruins or anything...this is my life, and I will decide.... "

He said and stormed out of the room.
Ren left alone in room, straightened out the creases which was there on his suit and looked at the glass window, lost in his own thoughts about what might happen. Dan's decision were always concrete and was most of the time predictable. Even though Ren didn't know what might be the exact decision. He would atleast know, that his decision would be like a full on bowling. Complete points on the first try itself. Knowing this and thinking about the situation now would be a worrisome.

.....
".. Finish this by tomorrow and don't delay it. You should summit that sheet on the coming week's Tuesday...so that's it for today... "
The teacher, gleed at Nora.
Nora who looks so tired brightened her eyes and face on the words of the ' that's it.'
"... That's it? Seriously? This is the first day and I already have tons of homework. Why are you doing this? Was my first impression that bad? "
Nora looked really concerned about the situation.

".. I had got the news that the assistant, would really be brilliant. Dan said this to me personally. And I wanted to test you..."
He smirked.
"That crazy, idiot did this on purpose to torture me. "
Nora was at the brim of her anger.

Nora thanked her teacher and left the room along with her bodyguard.
Nora was pisssed of by her boyfriend. And if she would see him now, then his handsome face would be, by now disfigured.
Nora was disturbed by the screeching, grunge noises in the talkies. Lucinda was just behind her and she was talking on her microphone, connected to her ears.
The moment she finished, Nora enquired about what was happening.

".. What happened.? Something wrong?.. "

" Yes, Master Dan, wants you to get ready now. He wants you to go to Japan now, with him... "

" What?..!.. Japan?... " Nora looked completely shocked?

" Yes Mam. "
