Chapter 3 Three

When the clock strikes six o'clock, the two individuals have just placed an order for some food. To put it simply, they are incapable of cooking. They will be quite fortunate if Tiffany, the girl with the pink hair who lives on the higher floor, brings them food because this is precisely the moment when they will be able to consume food that has been cooked. Both of them ate in silence as soon as their order was brought to them. During the entire dinner, Patricia observed that her buddy was being silent, nevertheless, rather than questioning about it, she simply shrugged it off.

She had been accustomed to Dianna suddenly becoming absent-minded.

Immediately after they have finished eating, Dianna insists that they wash the dishes. When she is finished with the plates, she makes her way to the living room, where she notices Patricia in the middle of watching the television with great concentration. They chatted about their day and how their subjects were getting more difficult, but the two are low-key intelligent on their programs, so it is an easy piece for them to do. During the time that they were still in their first year of school, they even discussed how Dianna had performed exceptionally well on the integral calculus exams. Additionally, they reminisced about the time when Patricia was crowned the Miss College of Engineering and Architecture during their second year of schooling. You see, both of these individuals were stunning on the inside and out. In addition to their intelligence and attractiveness, they are also charming individuals who garner the attention of others, particularly women, with their expertise in dancing. At the beginning of their first year at school, they were selected to participate in a dance ensemble.

They retire to their own rooms and turn off the television after some time has passed and it is now nine o'clock. Dianna took the course outline out of her purse and did some preliminary reading on the two classes that she had scheduled for the following day. When she was in her Understanding the Self class, she began by learning about the western and eastern perspectives on the concept of the self. She gains an understanding of the distinctions between the two, as well as the philosophers involved and the famous lines they have uttered. As soon as she finishes her work at UTS, she goes and gets her book for the Theory of Structures class she is taking. She studied the entire syllabus, which stated that the first topic will be about beams and trusses, and she even did some research on various formulas and procedures that she may apply in the future. After she had finished her studies and felt satisfied with what she had learned, she put her book away and placed it back in her purse. Before she could get on her bed, she checked to see that everything was in its proper place. Dianna, who had lived in the castle for eighteen years, was of the opinion that her home should be kept in a state of constant organization. As soon as her back touches the comfortable bed, she turns her attention solely to the ceiling. The heavy thump that she heard on her bookcase coincided with the moment that she was about to close her eyes. As she turned her head in the direction of the commotion, she noticed that her book had fallen. At that moment, her eyes fell upon the letter that the Lord had presented to her earlier. She rose up and snatched it up.

Oh my goodness! "I completely forgot about this," she replied as she took the book and placed it back where it should have been. In order to open the letter, she takes hold of it and tears the golden seal.

When Dianna, my Marceline, read the way in which her father greeted her, she couldn't help but smile.

Whenever she would hunt for her Princess Bubblegum, she would always state that she was Marceline. She remembers these things. She returns her attention to the letter and reads the entire message to herself.

This is my Marceline, Dianna.

Dearest, how are you doing? Are things going well for you at the moment? I'm sorry, but Daddy is unable to come see you at this time. He can't even chat to you on the phone. Because he is so busy taking care of Norland, your father is a very busy person. Your grades are performing really well, according to what I've heard. When it comes to you, Dianna, I want you to know that I am extremely proud of you. Now, I am aware that you despise all of the cheesy words and praises, so here it is.

When you were five years old, do you recall, honey? You told me that you want a queen, not a king, right? When did you say that? Despite the fact that the memory is so endearing, I am aware that it has not changed throughout the years. As you can see, you have developed into a woman who is noticeably tall. I don't want to rush you, but I think you should bring your Princess Bubblegum to me. Your father is not getting older in reverse. I don't want to rush you. You will soon be able to wear my crown, and you will soon be in charge of our people. In addition, you ought to have someone at your side during that period of time. Have you found the princess that you have been talking about since you were five years old? Again, honey, I'm not trying to rush you in any way. I hope that you have a wonderful life and that you are constantly aware of how much your father loves you. I need to come see you shortly.

Affection,

A. Valentin

Dianna's eyes began to well up with tears as soon as she finished reading the document. One of the things that she pondered to herself was, "Why do I feel that Daddy is saying goodbye?" After cleaning the fluid off, she went back to bed and placed the letter in the box that she had hidden away. After hearing her father's message, she started to think about it. How is it possible for her to assume the throne if she is still unattached? Despite the fact that Dianna lives her life with the intention of being a typical person, she has not forgotten the responsibilities that she will have in the future. And because she is the only child, she cannot let it to be taken away by other people, particularly the predators who are all over the land and eager to take the kingdom they have claimed. Dianna goes to sleep since she absolutely does not want to get a headache.

-!

As it was twelve o'clock, it was time for lunch. At the cafeteria, Dianna was waiting for Patricia, it is the one time of day when students do not have classes during lunch. Dianna took a seat at a table that had four seats, and then she opened her phone and put her earbuds so that she could listen to some music. While she was in the middle of listening to Blackpink's song "You Never Know," she was taken aback when someone kicked one of the chair's legs from behind. She turned around and noticed a woman who was far shorter than she was. The woman's arms were crossed, and she raised an eyebrow as she looked at the older woman who was sitting. After taking off her headphones, she turned around to face the young lady.

She cried out, "Why did you do that?" which caused the other kids to gaze at them in their minds.

"That's my chair!" The young lady responded, unfazed by the appearance of the taller woman.

"This is a public institution, nobody owns it." Because she is now so angry, she didn't mind the audience looking at them because she was so angry. On the other hand, the girl chose to disregard her and proceed to take the seat that she had previously occupied.

"Take a step back! What gives you the right to be so impolite? Where are your ways of behaving? A recollection came to Dianna's mind after she had finished speaking. She thought to herself, "This is something I've seen before." When she was five years old, she had her first experience with Hilary, who at the time was her playmate. While she was sitting next to her, she cupped her face. In spite of the fact that the girl shuddered in response to the unexpected interaction, Dianna continued to ignore her and began to examine the girl's face. The young lady became immobile, her eyes having widened, and she froze. As Dianna thought about her eyes, she couldn't help but smile. She had just about finished her sentence when someone else spoke before her.

"Dianna, what are you doing?" Her hands were removed from the girl's face, and she turned her attention to the person who was speaking.

"Tiff, you're here!" It was then that she stood up to embrace the woman.

Another question that she asked, which caused Dianna to be perplexed, was, "What are you doing to my roommate Dianna?" Afterwards, she recalls what Patricia had said, she recalls that Patricia's cousin is going to be arriving today, and that she will be sharing rooms with Tiff. As soon as she was finally able to identify the girl, she jumped up and gave her a hug, which caused the girl to jump back in surprise.

"Oh my!" It's time to show off. Thank you very much," Patricia said as she arrived, addressing the individuals who were watching. After taking a peek around, Dianna noticed that everyone's attention was focused on them. As she was experiencing feelings of embarrassment, she pulled away from hugging the girl.

"Dianna, why are you hugging my cousin?" Patricia questioned while looking at the seat that was vacant. This caused her to roll her eyes when she realized that she would be sitting next to Tiff.

"Dianna, can you exchange seats with this cotton candy girl?" She went on to say it made Tiff angry.

"What did you just call me?" The petite woman was dwarfed by her as she stood up.

Sugary Cotton Candy! Is that a pink color in your hair? genuinely? With a chuckle" Patricia did not seem to care about the disparity in height between them and continued to torment the girl with the pink hair. The two individuals had just witnessed people insulting one another to one another. In an effort to prevent the situation from deteriorating further, Dianna intervened between them.

"Stop what you're doing! When they came to a halt, she sighed and added, "Many people are watching here." It was Tiff who rolled her eyes once again before taking a seat next to the new girl.

The new female spoke out in a loud voice, "That was a good fight," and she chuckled. The fact that the three were looking at her caused her to pause.

"What is it? However, that was a funny joke. Take it easy, all right? With a pout, she said, "I'm hungry, Pat." Then Dianna recalls the conversation that they had interrupted.

"Hilary," the young lady stared out at Dianna as she uttered those words.

She inquired with a perplexed tone, "You know me?"

This is Hilary, it's me. Her name was Dianna Hampton, and she introduced herself. She was under the impression that she had located her long-lost buddy, but as Hilary speaks, she sits back and feels a sense of disappointment.

"I'm sorry, but I don't know any Dianna."
