Mrs. Summer walked towards Oriana and handed over her new pair of uniforms. Oriana rushed into the changing room and changed her clothes immediately.
After changing, her mom waiting patiently outside the room asked Oriana, “Darling, what happened to your clothes?”
Oriana replied, “Mom, just now I accidentally spilled a bowl of noodles soup on my clothes.”
However, Mrs. Summer worried about her daughter’s condition and brought Oriana to the clinic with her class teacher’s permission. At the clinic, the doctor gave some medication for her burns and told her mom not to be worried as the burn would not leave a scar if the medication was applied properly. Mrs. Summer and Oriana arrived at their home. Oriana asked her mom’s permission to take a rest in her room. Her mom was concerned about Oriana being gloomy all day.
After washing up and applying her medication, Oriana laid on her bed and had a deep thought of what happened previously. It had been almost five years since Oriana tried to approach and tried to be friendly with Eleo but all these seemed useless based on Eleo’s behavior earlier.
Suddenly, a ‘ding’ sound was heard from her phone. She received a message from Estella conveying an apology from Eleo as Eleo didn’t have her phone number. Oriana replied, “Okay” and sighed looking at the message as Eleo didn’t even bother to apologize to her directly. However, Eleo actually messaged Estella asking for Oriana’s number. Instead of giving the number, Estella asked the reason for Eleo to do so and he said he wanted to apologize to Oriana regarding the situation that happened during lunch break. Estella told Eleo that Oriana might be very angry with him about the incident so she insisted on handling the situation herself.
The next day, Eleo’s brother, a five years old boy named Adrian who was studying in the same school as Eleo and Oriana, approached Oriana. Oriana knew Adrian since he was one year old as Mrs. Horus would invite Mr. and Mrs. Summer’s family to Adrian’s birthday party each year. Oriana really adored Adrian and he always loved to play with her too. Her mother actually told the news about how she accidentally spilled a bowl of noodles and got hurt to Eleo’s mother. Eleo’s mother jokingly told her younger son to protect Oriana and never let her get hurt next time. Adrian listened and took this matter seriously, he was searching for Oriana since he reached school.
Once he found Oriana, with his serious-looking face he said, “Are you okay? Did you get hurt that badly? Why didn't you tell me anything?”
Oriana who looked at his serious face burst into laughter and replied, “Oh, my prince! Please accept my apologies.”
Then, Oriana carried Adrian in her arms because she was scared that the little guy might get upset with her answer and walked towards the cafeteria to buy him some sweets.
While walking she said, “It’s not a big deal, just some minor burns. I can take care of it.”
Adrian, who didn’t feel convinced with her answer said, “Are you hiding something from me? Does my brother bother you? If he does, tell me, I will scold him nicely.”
Oriana replied “Hye, big guy! Your brother didn’t do anything to me. So, don’t worry about it. If he does something like that I will surely tell you. Okay?”
Adrian nodded and said, “I will protect you next time!”
