Ana's P.O.V.

"Ana ..." came in my mother's familiar voice" Get up or you'll miss your bus , and I am not going to drop you this this time"

I took 15 minutes to get ready and Thank God! I wasn't late today...

Sitting in my bus in my usual seat made me feel good.

At last things were back to normal, at least for some time.

On looking out of the window I noticed something , I saw someone familiar...oh , it's Owen!

I tried to rotate my neck to it's fullest to view him, he was standing there at the newspaper stand buying a city map and newspaper , he was still dressed in his usual butler clothes which made him look quite odd among the other men .

'What was he doing here?' I wondered.

He has surely come to meet us.

On reaching the school I ran up to my class to find my three best friends who were playing 'join the dots ' on the blackboard.

" I want to tell you all something important!" I exclaimed dragging them outside the class to a secluded corner.

"While coming to school I saw Owen at the newspaper stand " I began.

" Whaaattt!" interrupted Belinda.

" When will we get rid of this burden..I hate it" Erica muttered.

" I think he has come to meet us"Zeh added " Lady Ariana must be in trouble , we ought to go..."

" Hey Zeh , you are not going anywhere " imposed Belinda taking out her cell phone.

" Whom are you calling?" Zeh demanded.

" Your mom " Belinda replied casually " She'll hold you back"

" Stop it Belinda " Interrupted Ana snatching away Belinda's cell " we need to observe this and not act hurriedly ... Stay calm maybe the man wasn't Owen , I said 'I presume it was Owen' I am not sure of it." I added to stop attracting the attention of our classmates because people in our group never fought and specially me , so people were eagerly watching me snatch Belinda's phone.

" Oh Bel.. I am soo sorry...I'll come with you" I said to make our classmates believe it wasn't anything serious.

" What's happening...GET IN!" came in Ms Stacy's voice , our English teacher.

" Take out your books and turn to The adventure and read it silently." She shouted.

Quickly we got back into our seats.

We occupied our usual seat , me sitting with Zeh and Erica sitting with Belinda

" Zeh dear ... Come here" came in Ms Stacy's voice." What were my orders to you " she demanded.

Exerting her mind she remembered it.." To keep one eye on Alice and the other on the class" Zeh muttered proudly because she still remembered it.

" Yes and dear prefect Did you follow it" She Enquired.

" Yes" Zeh said.

" I met Alice outside the staffroom" she said twisting her wolfy eyebrows while Zeh's heart skipped a beat.

" Where's your vice prefect ?" She demanded.

I stood up , and she ignored me , after saying a few words to Zeh she sent her back and began talking to Derica.

" Why are you standing Ana" she Enquired .

" Oh , sorry " I muttered confused, I felt it was better than being insulted for not standing and according to her ' not giving appropriate respect to the teacher' .

" Enough now , start reading 'The Adventure' " She shouted.

" Hey Zeh...I am damn sure it was Owen whom I had seen" I muttered so that only Zeh could hear.

" Ari must be in trouble, we ought to help her ." Zeh added .

" These two would never agree"

" True..."

The bell rang and at last I was time for Ms Stacy to go.
