The little girl leads her to a woman lying down with no life. This shocks Selene, she calls the Moon's Guards to take the woman. Selene covers the little girl's eyes while she looks at the woman. She has a flashback.
" Take her out of here, she disgusts me. "
Selene's Father kicks an old woman and orders the Moon's Guards to take the woman out of the kingdom.
" Help me, please. All my relatives are dead! I have nobody! "
The woman sobs, she cries and cries. The woman passes out and is violently dragged by the Moon's Guard. Selene witnessed everything, she was watching behind the door.
Selene could not do a thing. She didn't want to get in trouble.
" Miss? Miss? Miss, are you okay? "
" She might be in shock "
The guards tries to wake up Selene.
Selene gasps and passes out while holding the little girl. The little girl gets pushed away without anyone helping her. Selene gets treated right away. She wakes up after a day and orders the guard to find the kid.
" Selene? Thank gosh, you're fine. "
Trevor says to Selene.
" I mean-- Selene- Miss Selene. I'm glad you're doing good. "
Trevor stutters.
" Find the kid. "
Selene whispers.
Trevor couldn't hear what she said.
" Pardon, miss? "
Selene slowly gets up with Trevor helping her. She gets up and speaks louder.
" The little girl, the girl that was with me. Find her, now. "
" The little girl, miss? Okay, right away, Miss. "
Trevor answers.
" Miss Selene? I found the little girl, she was at the market holding your image. She was asking where you were. "
Trevor tells Selene the news.
" Hello, little girl. What's your name? "
Selene asks the little girl.
" Yumi, my-- my name is Yumi. Yumi Koh. "
The little girl answers.
Selene remembers more from her flashback.
" Help me, moon god. Help me! My name is Mary Koh. I have no more relatives! "
Selene gasps, she remembers the trauma she received and she cries and cries. Trevor tries to helo her but Selene refuses.
" Hello, Yumi. Let's go somewhere. "
She says with a smile while still teary eyed.
" Here it is. You can keep it. It's 1 million moon crystals. It's very expensive, spend it correctly, alright? "
Selene tells the little girl.
The little girl nods and hugs Selene.
" Find her a nice home, also. Let me visit her once every week. She's a very sweet child. "
Selene tells Trevor.
" Yes, ma'am. "
Trevor replies.
The two split and Selene sleeps sweet and sound.
" You did good, Selene. "
A woman's voice says while a shadow gets close to her.
" Mother? Is that you? "
Selene asks the goddess-like figure.
" Miss? Miss, Selene. Your breakfast is ready, your coronation will be next week, we have a busy week so, I'm afraid you won't get to go to Yumi. "
Trevor stops Selene from dreaming and tells her.
" What? What day is it? "
Selene says while the sun shines in her face and is annoyed by it.
" It's sunday today miss, please come downstairs to eat your breakfast. "
Trevor says to Selene and leaves the room.
Selene whispers to herself.
" Was it mom? Was she praising me for what I did? Mom? "
Selene gets teary-eyed as she remembers her mother.
She wipes her tears and goes to dress herself.
" Hello, miss. I see, you've finished breakfast."
Trevor tells Selene.
" Yes, what's my schedule for today? "
Selene stands up and asks Trevor.
" Well, miss. You have. Lunch with the minstar regarding your father's disappearance. You have to meet with Saturn's Prince, Prince Grian Voldurichts IV. And the rest of the day, free. "
Trevor replies.
" It's not much of a busy day, slip in a 1 hour meeting with Yumi. Around dinner time, Trevor. "
Selene orders Trevor.
" Yes, miss. Right, away. "
Trevor answers.
" Good. "
Selene replies as she walks outside.
" What do you mean, failing? Father has been gone for a day and your saying our statistics are low? And have you found dad, yet? That should be your first priority. "
Selene tells The Minstar with anger.
" Yes, miss. Our statistics have gone down by 7% in the last day because of businesses shutting down. "
The Minsar replies.
Selene asks The Minstar.
" And, why is that happening? "
" Miss, rumours got out that the Moon God is missing and that you're meeting with The Prince of Saturn this evening. They thought since The Moon God isn't here that you'd sell the moon to Saturn. "
The Minstar Replies.
Selene scoffs and says.
" Is that how bad my reputation is? It was one mistake! I only skipped one class because Sapphire was having her period. "
" Everything matters, one mistake can destroy you. They don't accept any excuses. "
The Minstar replies.
Selene gets the flashback.
" Selene! Selene. I need your help, I'm bleeding. "
Sapphire screams in Selene's class.
Selene acts fast and grabs Sapphire's hand to go to the bathroom.
" Here, put this on. This will help the bleeding. Don't worry, this is normal. Nothing is wrong. I knee it'd happen one day or the other. "
Sapphire sighs and gets out of the bathroom stall.
" You're a lifesaver, Selene. I'll see you at dinner. I have a class to get to, bye! "
" Miss, Selene. I'm afraid, I have to leave. I have a meeting with the Moard and we'll see what they'll do to find the Moon God. "
The Minstar wakes Selene up from the daydream.
" Okay- okay-- okay. I have to get going aswell. "
Selene leaves.
Moard - It is like a company board of directors but in the moon. The first part - ( Mo ) means " Moon ". The second part is - ( Ard ) means Board. This means, the board of directors of the moon.
" Good morning, miss. Trevor was not here today because of a family issue. I'll be here to serve you, just for this week. "
The head maid tells Selene.
" Alright, Maya. Can you tell me my schedule for today? "
Selene asks the head made, maya.
" You have a rescheduled meeting with Prince Grian Voldurichts IV. He is in wrath because you did not come on the scheduled day. Also, you have another meeting with Sapphire. She says its very urgent. The rest of the day is yours. Also, you can visit the Minstar to ask for what is recently happening with your father's disappearance but it is optional. It is okay if you don't want to com--
Selene speaks, not letting the head maid finish.
