"Sister, shouldn't you be in your room preparing for your grand appearance at tonight's party?"
I told my Sister Amelia, who suddenly barge in my room in this very early morning, even before I was awake, forcing myself to he awaken at a freaking 5 o'clock in the morning for who knows whatever she wanted from me
"Sister, I'm here to confirm something" she told me as I sighed "Shouldn't that wait later? After breakfast?" I told her as she gave me a 'really' look
Which then struck me,
"Oh, geez...how presumptuous of me to forget that you won't eat because you need to get ready for your birthday, and by the way...my apologies for my late greetings, but Happy 18th Birthday sister" I told her as she gave me a small smile
"Here's your refreshments my ladies" Ellie said as she entered the room, with refreshments in her hand, serving it to us
"Have a drink sister, I shall assure you that there's no poison in it, so tell me... what's wrong?" I ask her, taking a drink of milk......
Trying to make sister think that I have still have a baby teeth, I can't have her be suspicious that I, no longer her sister whom she despised
"Sister, I know that we haven't spoken like this since 2 years ago..." She started as I chuckled lightly,
" Ah yes, the time when I think it's when I'm formally engage to his highness" I uttered as she nodded
And the beginning of her hatred to me, what on earth did sister even see at the crown prince?
He's nothing special, other than his possession and title, well...maybe she fell in love with his title perhaps, the future Emperor...who wouldn't like that?
"By the way sister, I have an esteemed guest for us to join this evening" she started as I raised my brow and looked at her "An esteemed guest? You mean His Highness the King? Or our dear Cousin?"I asked her as I place down my cup in the table gently
"Ahh no, it's quite obvious that they'll attend...but I'm talking about the Viscount Nizel's daughter whom is quite not known to everyone" she stated as I froze in my spot
Wait....
"Whom did you say it was?"I ask her as she gave me a small smile "The Young Lady of Viscount Nizel, his precious daughter who lived in the countryside...Mother personally told me to personally invite her, for who knows what's reason" she clarified as I blink my eyes in shock,
I mean.... The Heroine, Catherine, is gonna show herself much more earlier, or should I say months earlier than she originally ought to be,
Wait-
Shouldn't that be a good thing?
For I can finally gotten rid of the Marquis and the Prince?
And sister and the Princess would no longer terror me,
It seems that my plan to ran away, shall be cancelled....it seems that my saviour had arrived earlier, just like I hope for.
"I see, then why are you telling me this?"I ask her as she gave me a smile
"Since it's my birthday, I want to ask a favor, can you please attend the young lady, for she is still not been settled in society, and I'm gonna be busy tonight and I don't have time, that's why I'm asking you" she told me, giving me smile
She's basically told me to get busy so I won't have time to seduce her prince charming,
When the person she just invited is gonna be a much more dangerous than me, for she is the heroine and will always ends up with the male lead
Well, I don't care ..as long as I have those men get off me, I would be gladly to be as busy as possible
Well I suppose I will have Ellie send a word to Kian that the plan would be cancelled tonight,
And if I'm ever so lucky, the King would be enchanted as well, seeing how his secretary's remarks that obviously stated that they wanted me to be their queen,
And I've been avoiding that talk every morning, luckily that Grandfather also helped me,
"By the way sister, is there a word from the King?"she asked me as I only let out a poker face, not trying be so obvious that I hated how he brazenly acted
"What about the King?"
"Well, It seems that the King had intentions for your hand, isn't it such a good proposal sister? If I were to be the Empress of this empire, and we will be able to have a good relationship with the Northern Kingdom, where you'll reside as the Queen" she explained, as she gave me a look
A look that screamed that I should become their Queen, the queen of the northern kingdom and finally leave the Empire for good,
Even if I were to be the queen, sister can't be the Empress for there's a heroine who had a destiny that is for her,
A destiny to rule the empire alongside with her own beloved, the Prince
"Sister, I'm quite bewildered of your suggestions but, I believe that I won't accept any proposal for the mean time, since I wish to establish myself...I don't want something like marriage to be cage me" I stated as she looked at me confusely
"Sister, I don't know why are you being cautious of me when I don't have any more plan on getting back to the Prince, I've rejected him now and I am not a person who would ran back to her own ex" I assured her, she's being to much
I mean, I've broken up with his highness, shouldn't she be happy for my decision? Am I right?
"I see, that's a good thing then, but for me to ensure his highness..you should get married sister" she told me
As I sigh loudly, can't she understand the word that I don't want to get married?
So dumb...
"I'll think about it, now I believe it's time for you to get ready, for today is your big day... Along with brother of course, now go and get ready, my dear sister" I stated, as I lead her outside of my room, smiling brightly
"I'll see you later tonight sister, and I hope that you won't be too dress up this evening, for I am the heroine of tonight, ok?" She told me as I nodded, waving goodbye as she went back to her own room
She? The Heroine?
How absurd,
Even if it is her birthday, she will be outshined,
Not by me,
Not by the princess,
But the original Heroine....
For she is here, to claim what's hers,
