The invitation

The first thing she thought about was the possibility that it was an invitation to a party. But who was holding a party so early in the year? 

"Bear can we pick this up later?"

"No, we have only two weeks left to release our first issue of the magazine or we will have to push again. I have hired writers, creative designers, editors, photo copying machines and so many others things. We have spent money, now we need to earn it back." bear was insistent. 

Chi Lian had taken the file off her eyes and she was looking at her phone. She was reading an email, in particular this email had been sent by a Princess Clementine of the American empire.  The princess had extended an invitation to her to attend the Starlight ball. 

Chi Lian kicked her shoes off and curled her body as if she was preparing to sleep. 

"Bear," she said, "Do you know anything about the starlight ball?"
