ROYALTY

CHAPTER 1

Debby’s pov

It’s my coronation day, the day I become Queen of Arthis. Nervous cannot even begin to explain how I feel.

One of the maids, Mia was helping me do my makeup, apparently, she’s a better makeup artist than the Royal makeup artist. I should really fire that makeup artist, she’s rude.

“Your highness, I pledge my loyalty to you!” Mia said abruptly, interrupting me from my thoughts.

Well, that came out of nowhere…

I am guessing someone wants to pit her against me, well, I’ll find out later.

“Um…thanks my royal subject” I said and smirked while she smiled.

“So, you’re almost rea…” She was interrupted by a phone call.

“I’ll get it” She went to pick it up.

How on earth did I end up here, let me tell you.

I am a Nigerian, I’ve lived in Nigeria all my life. I’ve never been on a plane before. My parents weren’t poor but according to them, they rather use to money to invest than to travel around since travelling around is a big deal in Nigeria. P.S I have two younger siblings.

Flashback

I ran to hug my mum as she came to pick me up from school, I just completed my final exam SSCE, which means Senior Secondary Certificate Exam.

We went home while talking. I told her all the drama that happened in hostel. I and my mum got home and my younger sisters tackled me to the ground. Since today is Saturday, dad was at home. I went to hug him after releasing myself from them.

“Welcome back kiddo” I smiled.

Few hours later:

“Your post utme exam is a week from now, are you prepared?” My mum asked after setting dinner on the table.

“Yeah, I have been reading for the exam along when I was reading for SSCE” I said and was feeling two tugs on my skirt.

“Yeah?” Grace, the stubborn one out of the twins pouted.

“You said that you’ll bring Naruto home, you’ve not showed it to us yet.” I sighed.

“Your exam is next week. How about we do it like this … I’ll let you watch Naruto after you finish your exams but if I don’t see you reading, no Naruto. Deal?” I asked giving her that playful-serious expression.

“Yes!” Grace and Glory jumped for joy and ran to watch TV.

One week later.

Phew! My exam went well, admission into University is sure so I can study my dream course, Computer Science.

Ding…

I received an email from Royal College.

Royal College?

Royal College!!

Why am I receiving email from them?

I opened it to see that I have been given admission to Royal College!

I screamed and passersby gave me the ‘shut up’ look.

Royal College is only the best University in the World! Only few get selected to go there and it’s an opportunity of a life time. If you go to that College, you are worth more than a person holding a PhD certificate. I gotta tell mum and dad. I rushed home immediately.
