The Pianist's Stunning Violets Chapter 16 - The Arrival
Marie felt a mix of excitement and nervousness as she sat quietly in Icelander. An Indian movie was played loudly while the flight was carrying on. Her $578 fare was provided by the school. Due to her credentials and endorsement by her professor, her papers were approved right away. “This is it! I don’t know about tomorrow. I put everything in Your hands, Dear God. Thy will be done, she silently prayed while watching the movie once in a while. A piece of breaking news was flashed. According to reports, Prince Mharl of Denmark was engaged to one of the royal families of Spain. An anchorwoman reported that the palace arranged a secret meeting with the royal highnesses of Spain. "I cannot ignore him when I am here to work for his country. Despite his pretense of having something for me, he just played my feelings. What am I doing? Who am I anyway? This is enough. I can’t be like this.” Marie angrily uttered to herself in thought. Marie reviewed her schedule. Since she had already left
The Pianist's Stunning Violets Chapter 17 - The Interview
Marie called her parents early in the morning and they were happy about her news. But they warned her that one day the palace would reveal her medical history together with the lost artifact. It was the other news she heard before that kept coming. She felt it was like a warning for her to be prepared. “Mother, how are the kids? I didn’t see any of them. What happened to the living room?” Lan answered in a sleepy voice and as he yawned a bit, “We decided to put some of the potted plants here to make it more livable. And see how plants help to create the ambiance of a farm.” "Mar, do you remember when we returned home? When your aunt Shiela died, so did your grandmother and grandfather." Le asked as she made coffee on the table. The phone was put somewhere in between the table’s belongings so she could see Lan and her. “Yes, mother! You told us to pay for the house and lot in the Belair subdivision. And we have three months left to finish the payment.” Marie replied with a smile as
The Pianist's Stunning Violets Chapter 18 - New Journey
After Marie met with Dr. Hudrisch and Sharyn, her first week in Denmark was packed with exams, interviews, and demonstrations of teaching. Her experiences at Ramon Magsaysay High School suddenly came back to her. She continued praying harder as she prepared for her turn, asking God's guidance, "I need to visit the nearby church here later." Dear God, I don't know what may happen but I give You all my trust." Since Sharyn knew she was a bit uneasy about what might happen, she often told her, "Just do your part." Since these steps were just formalities, Sharyn urged her many times. Marie was thankful for Sharyn’s attitude toward her. She was kind and thoughtful. As soon as she had the time, she sent her messages or called to remind her about school papers. On the last day of her first week, after Marie demonstrated her teaching, Sharyn accompanied her to the Denmark Higher Education Office. She was interviewed and her papers were forwarded to the school. She was asked to have a pict

While the royal Danish driver played Danish music, Marie felt uneasy in her seat. Marie was sitting at the back of the royal guard who sat beside the driver while the two Danish officers together with the other driver were in another car. “Dear God if this is just a dream, I don’t want to wake now. Everything is magical. I was contacted by my professor who offered me a job and her niece who worked on my papers. Did I do something to deserve all of this? The Danish University of Higher Education is so strict and meticulous that it screens all application materials and documents before accepting an applicant. As a result, he is unlikely to be accepted into Danish City High School right away. Exception, Father? How can I ask for Your power when I know that nothing is impossible for you? Help me to face the royal family here." Marie's prayer lasted for ten minutes, but she kept looking left and right at the gorgeous houses. “We are now entering the castle, ma'am." The driver spoke while
The Pianist's Stunning Violets Chapter 20 - Bouquet of Flowers
Having found a church identical to the one she attended in New York and the Philippines, Marie was very happy. “Oh, I need to list down my To-Do List. Wait! Dear God, this is just a dream. Marie cheerfully expressed her thoughts on the contract. I need to buy my food first. Why do I feel hungry? She read the update to her apps on her phone." I walked almost three thousand steps!" she said as she read the update. She was about to close her door and go outside, suddenly, on the headboard of her bed, her phone rang. “Ma’am. I mean Sharyn. I didn’t know that…” “I am happy for you.” I hadn't signed the contract yet. So, you know all these things?” “Yeah! You must sign now and return to the royals. That shows how much you appreciate the opportunity they have given you. We knew everything about the event, even the tiniest details. Dr. Hurisch is happy for you, too. Instead of training in our school, you will receive instruction in royal administration.” “Actually, I found a church here
The Pianist's Stunning Violets Chapter 21 - Meeting for KSN
Marie’s thoughts were still on her aunt’s case. During her vacation, she secretly reviewed the messages her Aunt Shiela sent to her from the very first day that she arrived in Denmark. “Aunt Shiela was very happy with this picture. And the address that I was looking for… Father God, help me as I begin to dig into Aunt Shiela’s case here. Am I right to ask for justice? No one, not even the..." After her prayer, she thought of something. "Wait. There was no way I could ask about their history." As Marie read, she sat with a frown on her face as she scanned the pictures. It was Friday night after Mary had completed her Danish language training. She received a video call from Ralph. “Hej, Ms. Sieran.” “Hahaha. If I didn’t know you, I must say that you are Danish. You perfectly hit the accent.” “Really?” “By the way, I heard that all of you stayed in New York. Have you all applied for a working permit? “Yeah. Four of us are already a contractual teachers at Manhattan High School.”
The Pianist's Stunning Violets Chapter 22 - The Launching of the Project
The launching of the project came and the king and queen were the only royals who were there. The prince, on the other hand, who received the invitation on Spain Day and had signed it ahead of time, decided to attend the first activity. This was of immediate importance. “Your Royal Highness, I’m glad that we met again.” Marie smiled as she shook hands with the king and queen. As she gazed at the whole conference room 3 on the second floor of the castle, Queen Viela II asked, "How's school?". Marie smiled. “Oh! Before I had some time to learn Danish, but now I guess I am beyond a beginner, honestly.” The king laughed softly and replied, "Well, that's alright. You can learn the Danish language easily if you keep on practicing it now and then.” The host called everyone to settle down. Marie asked the royal highnesses then that she needed to go back to her seat. As the program continued on, Marie's eyes were fixed on her phone when a notification popped out. In a private message sent
The Pianist's Stunning Violets Chapter 23 - Disrespectful Manner
Because Marie regularly updated her social media accounts, everyone knew that her poetry book project would be realized soon. Her backache that had been healed before she came to New York returned one night as she prepared to sleep on her bed after visiting Sharyn's family. “I don't understand why I'm experiencing this pain again. It was healed years ago." Marie’s thoughts were on her back as she looked for something to get on her blue Denmark’s medicine first aid kit box near her brown folding study table beside her bed. She found an ointment for back pain and applied it immediately to the painful area. “Now, as you see the pictures, what can you say about the characters in the story?” Marie suddenly walked a few steps while asking her students as she felt a pain in her back and waist. She could no longer tolerate the pain and retreated to her condo hotel within the school's campus to take a break. “Dear God, what happened? Her tears fell as she lay down on the bed, chest and face
