chapter 2

   I woke up expecting to see my father in the living room waiting for me only to see a woman there sitting with him I hesitantly walked over to the both of them I clear my through once I make it  to the center of the room I clear my throat to get  my fathers attention who's attention was on the floor. 

 "father" I try to say with confidence not liking the woman that is seated next to him "who may this be" I try to say politely.

 I check her out looking at her posture seeing that she wears royal clothing is this the queen no it couldn't be if so what would she want with my father all these questions ran through my head that I didn't register the look my father gave, me the look of sadness and anger but longing .he looks at me and starts to speak"This Selene is your- the queen she came here to take you to her palace were you will live a royal life"In which that statement causes me to freeze I was one, upset. two, I did not know this woman. I do not want to go with a stranger.  

"father are you joking with me,If so you scared me"I say not looking at the woman laughing sadly at my father not believing that this unknown woman is going to take her away "Selene I am not joking I have raised you for your 7 years that you were alive you are able to go on with out me"he starts to cough"you will be treated nicely there Mrs.Parlin moon will explain the rest to you during your ride there" he finishes with more coughing I look at him and decide that I should go for my father  I know that I should fight but I can already tell that I was going to go whether I like to or not.

 "OK father I trust you are right  but promise me you will take care of yourself"I say looking at him  waiting for his answer "I promise my little raven I am only in my late 30's I lived this long and someday we will be back together  and I promise I'll have my arms open for you to run in" he says I nod knowing that if I said a word I would cry but I am strong for him at least.

I got to my room and collect all the things that I need I grab my special dress that my fathers friend made especially for me and I packed my journals and locket a picture of me and my father when I was a baby I almost reach the living room when I hear the lady and my father talking.well more like angry whispering i laugh in my head at that.hearing the lady talk brings me out of my head.

" why didn't you tell her who I was to her"the woman says "I do not want to call the woman that left my baby girl on the doorstep her ''mother'' you are just a person to her right now you must earn that title " he says then marches off to the kitchen.

 I'm shocked she couldn't be she couldn't be the woman that I always dreamed of she didn't seem sweet or soft or cuddly I laugh in my mind at that to she's not a dog but anyways she seemed stiff and always grumpy I decide it's my time to walk out. And show myself. I look at the woman trying to look at he facial features and compare them to mine  she smiles at me I turn from her and go and hug my father "I love you papa" I say holding in my tears"I love you my little raven always remember that"he says he walks me and the woman to the door " hold on" he says tugging me back a little "heres the present I was gonna wait to give you when you turn 10 but here and this ones for your 16th and 18th birthday"he chuckles handing me the 3 different shaped boxes I hug him one last time hoping this was just a nightmare he lets go of me  and watches me and the woman get into her carriage I give him one last wave and smile he does the same but I can see the tears that won't come out of his eyes.

I look at the woman but not feeling like talking. I glance outside of the carriage and look at the beautiful earth that accompanied the fiery rocks in the sky I silently cry dreading my new life that is about to start.

    Authors note 

I wonder if other people spell the word BEAUTIFUL by using the way Jim Carrey did in a movie that I remember cause I have trouble remembering how to spell most words even if deep down I know how to spell them.
