2. The morning

day of the Ball has finally arrived. It is a pleasant morning- "Aleesha!"... the screams of a desperate mother overshadowed those of the beautiful chirps. "Aleesha where are you".

The enraged mother met her eyes with a girl who's hands were covered with mud. Someone with a rough dress on and an oversized appron. "Greetings mother I was just planting a new flower but. I'm sure it will bloom beautifully one day". The girl was calm unlike her mother. "For goodness sake Aleesha tonight you will go to the grand ball ALONE. Go to yours room and get ready this instant!". "But moth-" "Now!!".

And this is how the my day began.

I looks my heavy steps and matched towards my room in a very tired manner. *this was exausting* I thought to myself. I whatsoever had no desire to attend this ball. For someone who wished not to be the center of attention and not that outgoing. This ball held no excitement in my heart. However it was important as "a girl needs to wed and this is the perfect opportunity for an eligible Nobel to give me his name" I revised in a mocking tone of my mother. It is true that I never particularly though of Marriage and nothing but a bond that is used to tag a women as the property of someone else. I hated this idea. There was no love, no care only duity that existed among the nobility, and I wished to be more then just an elegant face standing behind and under the shadows of a man. I wished to me more.

My "sinful" thoughts process was broken by the sound of the door and the maida surrounded me to prepare me for this Royal ball....how exiting....
