A bodyguard

"But dad"I whined as I followed him to his and mom's bedroom."I am too old for a bodyguard"." You think I don't know that?

Sienna I am doing all this for your own good.I love you and I am worried about your safety that's why I'm asking you to please accept your bodyguard"."Mom please tell dad that I don't need a bodyguard I am too old for that". I said to mom as we entered the bedroom.

"Baby you know I love you and I think a bodyguard will be good for you. You're the heir to the throne and your safety is all that matters to I and your dad so I can't take your side this time". she said and dad smiled. "End of discussion go get ready he will be here soon." Whatever", I mummured under my breath but I think they still heard me.

I left their room feeling like the world was coming to an end.

I walked into my room feeling dejected,"how could my parents do this to me, what will my friends think of me" I thought laying on my bed. Marita my personal maid stuck her head into my room," your mom says you are to be ready in 5 minutes". "Sure Marita, will you help me dress up"? "Yes dear", she said entering my room.

"You know your parents don't mean any harm they are just concerned about your safety". "I know", I said sighing. I thought about all that my parents said to me, they are right I thought,although I am 16 I am still the heir to my father's throne and a lot of people are trying to get rid of me just for the throne.

I sat up to look at Marita who was bringing out different choices of ball gowns for me to choose from. "Can't I just dress casually? besides it's not a big deal". "It is for your parents", she replied.
