"Good morning, sisters" Says one of the triplet daughters of the rich and famous Adrian: CEO and founder of Nasod Technology; the world's leading company in AI development. This daughter had hair braided above her ears, as she really fancied being more sophisticated compared to her two other sisters, utilizing the servants at home to max potential. She's intelligent, responsible, often taking care of her sisters and the family whenever their father leaves to attend business. Her father calls her Escencia.

"You too" replies one of them. Her hair long and messy. Compared to her other sisters, she is the rebellious daughter, often sneaking out of the house when she was younger, often fighting with other girls, and her sisters, specifically Escencia. Escencia often is there to stop her before things get too out of hand. She doesn't enjoy the idea of being pampered, she wants to do things on her own, get her hands dirty. Her father calls her Ultima.

"The day is indeed beautiful" the third sister replies. Her hair is long but is neatly kept unlike Ultima's. Her personality is completely different from her sisters. She is calm, often staying neutral whenever Ultima and Escencia quarrel with each other. She is quiet, giving her best results but never speaking a word about it. Her calm personality makes it hard to depict what she feels or is thinking inside but she is still loved by her sisters regardless of what everyone else things. Her father calls her Sariel.

Escencia looks at the two sisters in their Velder Academy uniforms. Ultima is messy, as always, her polo isn't tucked in properly, and there are folds here and there all over her shirt, her hair looks unbrushed, split ends appear everywhere, her coat is nowhere to be seen, Escencia rolls her eyes, silently sighing at Ultima to which Ultima only responds with a puff. Sariel's uniform, is neatly worn, her hair tied together in a ponytail, her bag hanging on her one shoulder, while her coat is folded tidily inside her bag, as always, Sariel's expression is blank but Escencia nods at her with a smile of admiration. Escencia's uniform is what everyone expects it to be; perfectly tucked in shirt, properly ironed skirt, her jacket is clean and already worn on her back, her bag is organized thoroughly, not a smudge out of place.

"Are you all ready for first day at Velder High?" Asks Escencia. Sariel nods calmly while there is no reply on Ultima's side. Ultima raises her hands to brush her hair with her own fingers but in a split second, Escencia catches a glimpse at her knuckles: red and swollen.

"What have you been doing, Ultima?" Escencia asks almost angrily. The rebellious girl just rolls her eyes, ignoring her sister. "Ultima?" She asks again.

"It's nothing, okay?"

"Doesn't look like nothing!"

"Look, I don't question why you have to be so spoiled"

"Spoiled? I am merely utilizing the things given to us!"

"Sounds spoiled"

"I am not!" Escencia stops herself before she gets out of control. She breathes deeply, as the complexion on her cheeks start to return to normal. "it's fine, let's just go" Escencia sighs, and just as they finished, Ophelia, the family maid arrives in front of the door in their nice black limousine.

"Let's go" Escencia comments one last time, being in front of the three sisters while Sariel is at the back.

The ladies sit silently in the leather chairs with provided drinks and snacks for their needs. Escencia, sitting on the left side, on her phone, silently texting her friends and former colleagues. Ultima is in the middle of both of them, just casually watching the car move forward, watching the scene as the car moves. And Sariel is holding a small book in her hands, silently and plainly reading whatever is written on it; neither of the two other sisters know what is on it since she is so fixed on keeping it only to herself, having it tucked under her pillow every night or inside her locked drawers during the day.
