(This is the vacation house , just imagine it's bigger , with two stories and the "lake" deeper )
After a 45 minute long drive , we arrived at the vacation house , I always loved staying here as a child with my father . We would always go swimming in the Lake and adventure around in the wood behind the House . He always told me that this was our special place , and only ours , I don't think mother even knows we own this House . Which gives me an advantage .
I pay the taxi driver his 120 Dollars , which is quite a lot for a 45 minute drive in my opinion , but what can you do . I pick up my bag and go to the front door , I already know where the key is , since we never took the key home with us , my father hid it under a window ledge , never the same one tho . So I had to find the key by feeling what's under every window ledge , and finally after about five window ledges I found the key . My Father hired a maid to come clean , buy groceries week and warm up the house every week , so that we always feel welcome . He also told her , that she can live here if she wishes to do so . I wonder if she still does her job , or if she quite after father died .
Before I stepped into the house , I looked for my phone that I put into my bag to look at the time , as I finally found it , it was already 5: 09 pm . If the maid isn't here I'm just going to order some food from ubereats .
As I stepped into the house it was warm , clean I guess our maid did stay in the house after father died , which is quite convenient for me in this moment , because I won't freeze and sleep in a dirty house , it is better then sleeping on the streets but still . I heard footsteps coming to the door , I couldn't remember the maids name . Think Sage think , what is her name ?? I remember it's Mrs . Marie , she always told me to call her by her first name .
" Mrs. Marie ? It's me Sage , Sage Petrova . " I yelled out , hoping that there isn't a serial killer inside the house , trying to kill me . God I hope not .
" Sage , is that really you ? " Yelled Mrs. Marie while stepping out of the living room . " I haven't seen you since your Father died , how are you my dear ." She said with a smile on her face walking towards me , with her arms open going in for a hug , I hugged her back .
" I am fine , needed a break from my family , how are you Mrs. Marie ? " I was so happy to see her , one of the reasons I loved coming here , was because of Mrs.Marie . She is so much like me and always understood me , she also liked reading and painting , she fought me how to read over one of the summer's , that I stayed with her . I also always loved her food , it was never made to look professional like you are only supposed to look at it , but it always tasted the best .
" I am just preparing food , my dear if I knew you were coming I would have made more ." Mrs. Marie said , I could see that she was feeling guilty about it .
" Don't even worry about it Mrs. Marie , I am just going to order some food , and besides I came unannounced to your House ." The House isn't really hers but she has lived in this House , for as long as i can remember .
" Whatever you want my dear , but the House is yours not mine ." She said with a smile on her face . At first I didn't realize what she just said , but then it hit me . Did Father leave this House to me ?
"Mine ? This house is mine ? " I asked still in a shock / confused way .
" Well of course this House is yours , who else would he leave it to ? "
I mean that's true , Father had a special place with all three of us , and he did once tell us that the special places we have together would , be our once he passes away . I smiled to myself , following Mrs. Marie to the kitchen . I know Rose will get the city view apartment , because that was their special place , and Jasmine would get the greenhouse , with all the tropical flowers . When we were little , we were very close . You could always find us playing together , talking about every single detail . After Father died , I became distant from everyone , I guess it's also my fault that we are not as close as we used to be .
" I am going to go to my room now Mrs. Marie , just to unpack , hope that is ok . I am also going to order some food already if they get here before I am done , here is 60 dollars which should be enough to pay and Tipp . " I said with a smile on my face and left 60 dollars on the kitchen counter and went upstairs to my room . My room has as huge triangular window , with a beautiful view of the Forste and the lake . I sat my bag down on the bed , and admired the beautiful nature I front of me for a while .
I decided to order food , I ordered some noodles with a salad . I got all of my clothes out of my bag and put them in the closet , I also took all of my jewelry and money and put it in a safe that is Inside of my closet . Father always made sure that there were safes everywhere , so it would be hard to rob us . Every House or apartment we ever bought , has its own code for the safes . I put the code in and the safe opened , surprisingly I still remembered the code . I put my diamond necklace and earrings in and also the stack of money . I didn't want to lose those items or get robbed , because otherwise I would be left with nothing .
As far as I know I am the oldest of me and my sisters so rightfully I get the Thron , but I don't think mother wants me to be the future Queen . I believe that mothers love all of their kids equally , but she just doesn't think I fit in , I can just feel it . But I will fight for my crown , because I also deserve it . I know I do . My sisters would not care about the people of our land , they would just use all of the money on themselves , for their party's , dresses and so on . They don't care about the well-being of other people and that is just one of the many facts , that makes them horrible for the role of Queen .
I have to go pick up my dress for tomorrow and buy my shoes , I already bought my dress weeks ago , it's a black long elegant dress with thing strapes . I only need to buy the shoes and get my hair done , i can do my own makeup .
As I was done unpacking I went downstairs to see if the food has already arrived , and there were my noodles and salad , I was starving because I haven't eaten all day .
I sat at the table with my food , and Mrs. Marie was also there with her food , I know I can trust her with my life and I need to tell someone otherwise I will explode . So I told her about my plan and what I want , because I believe that's what father would have wanted . I am next in line for the throne , as I am the oldest and I can help the people of our land , not like my sisters . Mrs. Marie told me that it would be risky , but also told me that she would support me trough it all , because she also believes that my Father would have wanted me to take over the kingdom when I come of age , which is 16 .
I am also pretty sure that I don't need an invitation considering it's my birthday party also , after me next in line is Jasmine , but I know how much Rose also wants the Crown , so if something happens to Jasmine at least we know who it's was . After the meal I go up to my room and get ready for bed . Tomorrow is going to be a big day , considering I am going to crash the ball . I set an alarm on my phone for 6 a. m. and went to bed .
