Surprise! What's the meaning of this?

Being able to graduate as a top-notching student with outstanding academic achievements to a prestigious royal academy. It was one of the best days that happened to Chartiana, as her friends send her off to her carriage. Chartiana didn't also forget to bid them farewell as she hugged them tightly before getting up from her carriage and leaving.

" You guys stop crying 'cause you're making me feel like I'm going to cry as well."

" We knew that your parents wanted to see you again, but we just can't help but miss you a lot, and it's been three years since we've become friends, I couldn't help but miss you all."

Hearing her friend's statement, she smiled and held their hand as she reassured them that she will never forget them in her life.

"I promise to you all that I will never forget you all as you all accompanied me through my hardships and comfort, You all are my true friends, and I know that someday we will meet again, and when that happens I'll hug you all again like today." Her words were pure and passionate as she made their uneasy minds reassured.

"Miss Tiana, it's time to....."

Hearing the Coachman's indication of its departure, she immediately gave its response.

" just a second!!!.. Guys, Thank you so much for everything and I hope we'll meet again."

As the coachman started to whizz its noose, Chartiana immediately went in and wave them a farewell.

" Good luck with becoming your dream businesswoman, and always remember we're your best friends."

"If you don't I will tell everyone the most embarrassing thing you did!!!!"

"You guys, I'll be missing you all a lot." She thought as she leaned her head to the right side of the corner where she can see her friends waving at her a farewell.

As she looked at them so genuinely, she sighed in relief while holding a letter from her parents.

While waiting for time to pass, she rejoiced as she can finally be free from everything and especially that certain someone who made her known as the academy's 'Luckiest girl of all

" Being reincarnated as a daughter of a noble family was a blessing...As I vividly remembered my past life, I was the abandoned child who graduated with the highest honors at the most popular university in my country, but unfortunately died from saving my biological mother's son, my stepbrother." Remembering her unfortunate death in her past life, she sighed while sporting a weak smile on her face.

"But at least, I was given a chance to live my life, having a sweet and supportive family who was proud of my accomplishment, and not only that. Even if you think into consideration that I'm only a daughter of a mere Noble family, My new looks are amazing! like looks of a celebrity." She thought as rewound her parent's reaction when she got accepted to the most prestigious royal Academy of the empire, Aurelius.

"At last, I can finally fulfill my dream to become a businesswoman and helped my family to its glory."

" Also that jerk!! Who made my life at the Academy so annoying and miserable!!"

"Well come to think of it, at least I survived! Right?"

" Those four years I spent being the most hated girl in the academy was worth it, and besides I can no longer see that jerk, and even if we meet again that will be impossible."

Thinking about the years she spent in the academy, She fell asleep and soon woke up from the crowd of people. As she steps out of the carriage she can see her mother and father welcoming her with a warm hug.

" Mom! Dad!!"

" Ohh sweetie our precious daughter, you've grown so much and are so beautiful."

" Well why come bother travel here to the capital?!" she queried as she felt suspicious and also worried.

Looking at her parent's reaction gloomed, her mood slowly distress as she felt even more suspicious about her parents.

"Is something wrong mother? Father?"

"Sweetie, it's better if we talked this out once we return home."

" No, we'll talk this out once we get to a carriage." The stricken feeling she felt right now made her worried.

" I understand that you're worried sweetie, but how about you take a rest, your father and I had already reserved a room for us to spend the night."

"Fine, we'll talk this out once we return home..." As she heeds her parent's request, Tiana spends the night thinking of what could make them look so anxious.

" What could it be? Why do I feel so uneasy?... " Thinking of any possible reasons for what made them hesitant to speak up, Tiana could've only hoped that it wasn't as bad as she imagined.

**************

" We've already been sitting in here for a few hours now, are you still not planning on telling me what's going on? You're worrying me!" Looking at how hesitant they are, Tiana heaves out a shallow sigh and hold both of her parent's hand.

" Mother, Father... I reassure you that I won't freak out and help you with everything in my power... So how about you tell me what is going on..."

At that moment, Tiana's eyes widened from thunderstruck as her parents told her everything that happened and made her furious.

" They did what!!! "

" Please calm yourself down, you promised us that you won't freak out..."

" So you're telling me that my brother is indebted with a fucking two million golds from his vice addiction!!! And flee with making you the guarantor of his debt!!!" As she gasped in disbelief, Tiana still couldn't believe something like this could happen and her plan of becoming a businesswoman might not be followed as planned.

" Well how about, Margaret... I heard she was not feeling well so that is why the engagement of ceremony was postponed for a month..."

" Well, about... Your sister wasn't sick at all, but—but instead she—"

*Sigh* " Mom, just tell me straight to the point on what's going on, you're scaring me..."

"Your sister had eloped with its lover a week before the engagement ceremony, so we had no choice but to postpone the engagement day for a month..."

" What?! She did that?...haaaahh" the trembling voice of her as she thought she heard it wrong. As this day should be the best day of her life but it seems it wasn't.

" Did her fiance know about this?..." She queried as her jaw dropped from frustration.

" He didn't know anything about it, but finding your sister may take several months to find her, and then we need to set this marriage to pay off half of your brother's debt and restore our business..."

" Ohh God, those brats!!! Then, how can I help?..."

" Well, your father and I have already been thinking about this for a while, We thought of you taking your sister's place and becoming her fiance—"

No! No !!! I'm not gonna do it, even if she and I are twins, I can never be her! You know that... My sister and I are exactly the opposite!" Objecting to her parent's request, Tiana didn't want to be someone else's fiancee, for she knew that being engaged meant she can't pursue her dreams of becoming a businesswoman.

" We knew that sweetie but we don't have any choice right now, besides once we pay off your brother's debt and found your sister, we would help you with your business career... And we want you to meet him as soon as you agreed to do it." Looking at how awful their feeling right now, Tiana's love for her parents is unparalleled for she has never been loved by her parents in her past life.

" Huh? Why?.."

" Of course, you must at least know him before the engagement ceremony...*sigh* We're truly sorry for you about this, sweetie... But please, just this time..." Pleading for her daughter's acquiescence, Of course, it was hard for them too, for they love them so much.

" I need some time to think about it..."

The moment they arrived at the mansion, Tiana immediately opened the carriage door and run rushed to her room, closing it with outrage. On the other hand, her mother felt heartbroken and felt awful about herself Tiana's father felt the same way yet hide his emotion and comforted her wife.

" Let's just give her some space, I'm sure she'll understand, and our Tiana is a smart and loving child, I'm sure she still loves you."Holding her hand, while giving her a gentle kiss on its forehead. Tiana was now truly blessed with such a loving family were also had its flaws.

***********

Meanwhile, In Tiana's room. " What should I do about this? Taking her place—means I need to hide my true self, right? Moreover I, myself need to hide my true identity for 3 years..."

" I guess I have no choice, but no one will stop me from becoming what I want even if the rest of it will be hidden..."

At that moment of silence, a knock was heard.

*Knock! Knock! knock!*

" lady Tiana...?"A maid peeked its head in while looking for. But as soon as she notice her, The maid was shocked when she saw Tiana lying on the floor.

" Miss Chartiana!!!"
