Princess Of The Land Of Light

Flora was pensive in front of her bedroom window. The girl who a few days turned twenty years old was staring blankly outside the house, as if she saw the shadow of someone walking hand in hand there. She felt there was a missing part of her body after the death of her sister a week ago. Understandably, Flora is an introverted girl who is accompanied by Rose—her sister.

Also oddities invaded her mind to this day. Because when a doctor tried to save Rose by needing some blood gourds, Flora and her parents didn't have the same blood type at all. Everything is different.

Flora did not dare to ask her parents about the difference in blood types. She, who is mostly silent, is used to only accepting prohibitions and orders. The rest if she want something or there is something she want to convey to her parents, Rose becomes the intermediary.

A few questions popped into her head. Is there something wrong with the blood type results? Or is it true that Flora and her sister are not the biological children of their parents?

Flora ruled out any possibility. Because in fact, from childhood to adulthood, her parents have always behaved like biological parents who love, are responsible, and fulfill their children's rights. They never showed a bad attitude at all.

A knock on the door interrupted her thoughts, Flora immediately grabbed her bag and opened the door. It turned out to be Lorenza—her mother, as usual this week Lorenza would ask Flora to come down for breakfast every morning. Because Flora was reluctant to come down if she didn't want to be alone.

"Nania has cooked chicken sausage, spaghetti, chicken nuggets, and egg omlet, let's have breakfast now. Dad is waiting downstairs." Said Lorenza.

Flora just nodded. Preferring to see every inch of her mother's face, who is very young at the age of fifty years. It turned out that apart from the difference in blood type, she and her mother had absolutely no resemblance even though they were both white and tall.

They both walked down the stairs. On the table there was Jonathan—her father who was said to be waiting, he was also going to check out the fields soon to be harvested. Flora felt no resemblance at all to her father. Should Flora now find out her suspicions, what's more the difference in blood type had become part of the evidence.

Flora chose chicken sausage to devour. Usually, beside her was always Rose who offered her all kinds of food. But not this time, even for a single smile it felt heavy.

"Do you want Dad or Simon to take you?" asked Jonathan. He often offers time to take Flora to campus, even though he often gets rejected.

"Just Simon." Replied Flora. Yes, her little heart said that being escorted by the driver would be better. For some reason, after knowing that her blood type was different, Flora felt that there should be some distance from her parents.

No more conversation after that. By now, Flora was in the car right behind Simon who was ready to drive. In Flora's hands at this time was a food box containing the bread that Nania—the housekeeper had given her, to eat this afternoon. Because Flora is always lazy to come to the campus cafeteria, what's more now there is no Rose to accompany her.

"Simon?" asked Flora.

Simon who was asked was quite surprised by the girl's call, then he turned to look in the rearview mirror. "Yes, Flora?"

"Does Mr. Simon know something why my parents always change the maid and driver every three years?"

Simon, who was asked, was confused by the question of his employer's son. In fact, he only found out now about his employer always changing maids and drivers every three years. Even though Simon has been working for Jonathan's family for almost three years.

"No, Flora."

Flora didn't ask any more questions, until thirty minutes later she arrived at the campus where she had been staying for six semesters. Flora stared blankly at the gates of the University of California campus. In addition to something missing in her house, in this place also Flora felt empty without her sister.

In fact, in three days her sister's twenty-third birthday. And they will celebrate together because they were born in the same month, December. But a tragic accident has taken the life of Rose so evil.

Then Flora walked to the campus garden while waiting for the lesson to start. She sat down on an empty iron chair and took out a thick book from her bag. In addition to many students passing by there, there are also many who chat and read books like her.

She had read two pages. Suddenly her head felt dizzy and spinning. Immediately Flora took water from the bag and drank it. She tried to hold on as best she could. Until finally the dizziness disappeared and suddenly there was a black paper on top of the book.

What paper is this?

Flora was confused about where the paper came from. She also read it, and the contents of this letter asked her to go to the back of the campus. Despite her hesitation, without many words Flora went to the back of the campus. There's no one there. Feeling that someone was teasing her, Flora also intended to return. But when she turned around she was surprised by the presence of someone. A beautiful woman wearing a white dress carrying a star scepter.

Amazed. Flora felt that her campus was not holding an exhibition or some kind of theater. But why are there students who wear clothes like angels?

"Who are you?"

"You mean?"

Again the woman just smiled. "I can't really explain much. My time is limited in this realm. I just wanted to tell you to get out of your house and stay away from your parents. Don't be late before you turn twenty."

"But-"

Flora was surprised, because in front of her own eyes the woman disappeared in an instant. It was as if she was being devoured by smoke.
