In a distance
Time has passed but I was still unable to go outside my palace, I tried to go out through a window near the guest parlour, but a knight noticed me, and have pushed me back inside.
I guess Father found out and had put more knights around the palace, making me a prisoner.
I spent my time, just wandering around the Ruby Palace, then going back to my room. The maids avoid talking to me but still serve me appropriately.
However, I am bored. I cannot go outside, I can roam around the Ruby Palace, but I lived here since birth, so I've already memorized every room there is in the palace.
'Have Father received my letter yet?'
'I hope he answers quickly.'
I thought which made me smile while I stare out of my bedroom's huge window. Up until I saw something— no I saw someone.
Upon looking at it more, I saw them.
Athanasia grew up beautifully, I'll admit to that.
She was walking with father who looks like haven't aged a bit during the years.
She was wearing a white, lavender and light blue coloured dress with ribbons in the dress and in her hair.
While Father wears the same siodonna robes that he always wears before. Athanasia was also carrying a bundle of flowers in her arms.
If someone sees how she walks with confidence, laughs in a graceful and elegant manner and having that kind of smile, she really looks like a royal.
'Do I look like that too? Do I have the same look as her when I do that? I hope so!'
I had my fair hair of etiquette lessons, so I'm hoping I look elegant as her.
I tried really hard with my studies, making sure that I can have a high remark so that my tutors can say this when my father asked them.
But I never got any news about it. No one mentioned it.
I felt a pang of pain in my heart as I saw her and father together taking a stroll around her garden and with Sir. Robane also.
I removed my gaze and went to my bed to lay down. My hair was sprawled on the mattress and my arms stretched at my sides.
Looking up the ceiling, I only see the image of them after not being able to see them for years. There weren't any royal balls or gatherings around high society's noblewoman nor young girls.
The only thing that sometimes makes the whole royal palace alert and flustered is when she receives something from father.
I've heard from the maids gossiping that she has received two gardens that only belong to her, a whole lake that is much wider than any lakes inside the royal garden, and a huge greenhouse. Just for her only.
While I only receive a couple of dresses and jewels on my birthday. but she receives gifts anytime.
I need to calm down. As soon as my father sees my letter and reads it, I'm sure a lot of things will change.
My remarks in every subject have improved, but the tutors always mention that Athanasia does not need to re-take her exams, unlike me.
Regardless, it's still good remarks. My debutante is coming up, I know father at least will acknowledge it. I just have to wait.
I DO NOT OWN THE CHARACTERS.
