Afterlife Of Ember And Rhea

Chapter 21: The Prince Of Brit High

"I'm excited to meet the prince." Rhea said to Ember as she walked towards their class.

"Which prince?" Ember asked.

"Array, that famous businessman, Mr. Helberg's son studies here."

He chuckled a little. "Do you know him?"

"No. Dad told me about him but I never met him. I want to see him!" Rhea smiled.

"What's so special about him?"

"He's. A. Prince. What else is needed to make him special? And hey why is everybody starring at us?" She whispered.

"Ignore them. So, don't you think I look like a prince?" He smirked.

"I don't think so😒"

"Whatever!😑😑😑" He sighed.

"He might be a prince." She thought. "But I was only seeking for you."

"Why doesn't she recognise me as the prince? I know she's talking about me. But...don't I look that good enough?" He thought. "I finally found you. But you don't seem to recognise me. Oh well, how can you? You don't even know me!"

"What happened?"

"Nothing. Well, lemme tell you, the prince is a bit flirty." He smirked.

"He might be. But not more than you!" She chuckled.

"Did you mean that I'm flirty?!" Ember pouted.

"Yes, I think so." She burst into laughter.

"It's not funny miss Arorhea Laghari!" He smirked again.

"Haha, it's funny, Mr. Ember-" She paused. "What's your surname?"

"My last name? What if I don't wanna tell? Didn't you hear yesterday at the declaration of the winners?"

"I did but I forgot. But YOU did! Don't you think my name's pretty hard?"

"For me? Not at all. I have photographic memory-'hyperthymesia'."

"Isn't it a...disease?"

"Why? It's an wonderful gift."

"Uhh." She was confused.

They reached their classroom and the other students started coming. But Rhea was waiting for Nikki. She noticed some girls were trying to flirt with him.

"Why??? Why is he flirting back?!" She thought.

"Why are you so angry about that? Are you jealous?" Her heart asked.

"No." She thought.

"Don't lie to your heart. He is the one you were searching for."

"Shut up! I hate him!😤" Rhea shouted.

"Whom do you hate? Me?" Ember asked, turned back as the girls left him.

"Did I say that loudly?😅" She asked nervously.

"...yes?" Ember replied. "What where you thinking this whole time?"

"Nothing."

"You can't hate him. You're attracted towards him." Her heart whispered.

"Is he a magnet that I'm attracted towards him?!😣" She did that again, a little too loudly.

"Wow, you're attracted towards me?" Ember smiled brightly.

"No."

"Aw come on. That was rude." He said with puppy eyes.

"Oh my, the prince is absent." Rhea thought. "Ugh my head is paining!"

"Rhea, what happened to you?!" Ember asked and she fell unconscious. "RHEA!"
