Iris woke up a bit late the next day, she rolled and rolled on her bed with no thought of what to do when she gets up. She checked her side and tears threatened to fall from her eyes.
If not for the bch that elope with her fiancee they would sleep and wake up in each other’s arms.
She say up and rub her eyes slightly, she went into the bathroom and walked out after easing herself.
Her stomach grumbled and she decided to have breakfast before taking her bath, she was surprised to meet a strange lady talking to Diana with a book in from of her.
Draco was busy writing too, she hasten her step and asked as soon as she got there, “what’s going on here?”
“The queen is finally awake,” Draco uttered with his gaze on the book he was writing on. “Good morning ma,” the lady greeted.
“Who are you?” She asked ignoring her greeting. “Nicole ma’am,” she answers.
“What are you doing here?” She asked. “She is our teacher,” Diana answered.
“Who hired you?” Iris asked. “We did, you refused to let us go to school and we don’t want to end up like you,” Draco blurted.
“What do you mean like me?” She asked. “It’s a puzzle,” Diana stated. “Meant for you to solve,” Draco added.
“Alone,” they said in unison. “Wow, perfect who is going to pay the teacher you hired?” She asked folding her arms underneath her bbs.
“You,” Draco answered. “Well not directly,” Diana added. “What do you mean by ‘not directly’?” Iris asked.
“You do have a chicken brain, don’t you? You are lucky I’m in a good mood so I’m going to tell you, that we will be paying from your account,” Diana answered.
“Stop messing with that account,” Iris glared. “Why not? Someone keeps sending money, we get both debit and credit alert, it’s like we never spent it. Is that a wizard account? Like Harry Potter?” Draco asked.
“I am done dealing with you two, Miss….” She trailed off waiting for the lady to complete her sentence.
“Nicole,” she said. “You will have to leave, I’m sorry these two made a fool out of you,” Iris apologized.
“No one made a fool out of her but you might be making a fool out of yourself,” Diana stated. “I will rip that mouth off your face if you don’t stop talking,” Iris threatened.
“Go ahead, give it a try. We are going to report you to the police if Miss Nicole moves an inch,” Draco said keeping a straight face.
“Are you threatening me?” Iris asked with her finger pointed at herself. “No, we are warning you,” Diana said.
“This is my house, I dictate who stays and who leaves, so she is going to leave and you two are going to apologize for everything you just said,” Iris declared.
“Apologize my foot! It’s not like we wanted to come here, your rule doesn’t work on us,” Draco glared.
“You should go and take a shower or get more rest, you are distracting our class,” Diana said. “Where is mom?” Iris asked staring around angrily.
“Aww, baby needs mommy to fight for her,” Diana clapped her hand. “Too bad, she went to the market and won’t be back early, don’t worry she’ll fght with you when she returns,” She added.
Nicole simply stood there surprised, these kids were acting all nice to her when she got there, and now they are rude towards Iris.
“Miss Nicole, I’m done with this you should check it,” Draco said giving Nicole his notes. Nicole was hesitant in collecting it but she collect it.
Iris scoffed staring at the lady who attend to the kids, she went back to her room angrily forgetting she was hungry a few minutes ago.

Romina smiled as she stared at the watches in front of her, Steve was done with it and she must admit that she is surprised and happy.
She didn’t expect him to be that fast, “why aren’t you saying anything? Don’t you like it?” Steve who was waiting patiently for her comment asked.
“I love it, I’m just surprised that it’s done it is faster than I anticipated,” she said walking around the table where the watches are kept.
“I thought you been a spy watch you need it a little early,” he stated. “You are quick-witted,” she compliment and he smiled.
“How do they work?” Romina asked. “About that, it uses a wireless remote,” he said walking to another table.
He pressed a few buttons and a small remote was brought out of the table, he picked it up and gave it to her.
“You are going to listen to everything the person is saying when you press this,” he pointed at a button.
“You press this to record and this to stop, this to give you the identity of the speaker,” he pointed at two more buttons.
“This is cooler than my design,” she said, the only thing she didn’t add is the identity of a thing.
“Your design is cool too,” he said. “Don’t flatter me,” she hit him playfully and he smiled.
“Lets test these babies,” she aded walking closer to the watches. She pressed the listen button and he remote speaker vibrated.
“It’s going to pick up the littlest of sound,” he whispered but Romina heard loud and clear from the remote.
“This is amazing,” she smiled. “I know,” he said and Romina pressed the button to reveal the identity, it displayed Steve’s full name on the small screen behind it.
“Am I going to control everything with one remote?” She asked. “Yes,” he respond. “How?” She asked.
“There are numbers on it,” he replied and showed her the three numbers which are 1,2,3.
“This is watch one,” he pointed at the one meant for adult. “And two and three meant for the kids,” he explained.
“You are the best,” she said and side hug him. “Thanks and keep this a secret,” she added and whispered the last part.
“You have my word,” he replied and she let go of him. “Bye,” she mutter and took the watches.
Romina kept the watches in her car and drove out of the company, she parked close to Iris house and waited patiently for her to come out.
Iris stepped out of the house and got into her car, Romina followed immediately but drove a little distance away from her.
“She’s driving at a normal speed today,” Romina muttered as she watched the car. Iris stopped by a restaurant which got Romina confused, “why is she here?” She asked no one.
‘To dine, what else do people do in a restaurant?’ Her subconscious mock.
Romina took the wrist watch designed for adult and got out of the car, she scan the restaurant with her eyes and found Iris sitting in a secluded area with a bottle of Cola.
Romina ordered a small amount of food and went to sit beside her, “Iris, right?” She asked as she sat in front of her.
“Romina, it’s nice to see you again. I have been praying for us to meet again since the last time, my prayers has finally been answered,” she giggled.
“Why did you want to meet me?” She asked. “You saved my life, you were friendly too,” she replied.
“You don’t have to feel indepted to me,” Romina said and her gaze went to Iris left wrist, just like she wanted it was empty.
“We can be friends right? Close friends,” Iris requested. “Of course we can be close friends or better BFFs,” she said.
“I would love that, I have never had a friend,” she blurted. “You never had a friend?” Romina asked in a low tone.
“Yes, but it is fine I had my mom,” she said with a sad smile. “Since we are friends and I don’t want my friend to be sad, I will give you a gift to make you happy,” she said and dropped the watch on the table.
“You don’t have to do this, I don’t need it you accepting me as your friend is enough,” she said. “I want to give you this as a friend, I’ll be hurt if you reject it,”Romina pouted.
“Thanks,” she muttered and Romina wore it for her. “It suits your wrist, don’t ever take it off,” she warned.
“Even if I want to take my bath?” She joked. “Except that, I want you to wear it all the time,” Romina said.
“I will wear it, thank you for this,” she said rasing her hand to flaunt the watch. “I think I’m going to have a dream of thank you,” Romina joked.
“Wanna know a secret?” Iris asked. “Do you want me to know?” Romina replied with a question.
“This is the first gift I’ll be receiving from an outsider,” she said. “Well I’m not an outsider but your BFF,” Romina said.
“That’s right,” she nodded in agreement. “I’m your friend okay,” she said caressing her hand.
