Chapter 6: The Rural part of the Kingdom

prompt: make chapter 6 with john and sophia visiting the rural parts of the kingdom with a carriage and sophia starting to gain feelings of love and from sophias POV.

---------------------------------

I sat in the carriage, looking out at the passing countryside with a sense of wonder and excitement. John and I were on our way to visit the rural parts of the kingdom, a place I had never been before.

I had always been fascinated by the stories of the simple, hardworking people who lived in the countryside. They were so different from the nobles and courtiers of the castle, who were often caught up in petty politics and social status.

As we journeyed further from the city, the landscape changed from bustling streets and towering buildings to rolling hills and fields of crops. The air was fresher, the sky clearer. It was a whole new world.

John, who had been sitting quietly beside me, spoke up.

"Are you enjoying yourself, Sophia?" he asked, his voice laced with concern.

I turned to him, my heart racing. He was looking at me with those piercing blue eyes of his, his face etched with a look of concern and affection.

"Yes, I am."
