The future Queen // Book 1

Getting ready for the party

I was just falling into a nightmare , I know it was a nightmare the sky was black and the grass was grey , the water around me blood red . Every step that I took I saw some kind of face , like a spirit haunting me , wanting some kind of revenge on my family . I know that because it was screaming this exact sentence into my ear : " Your family burned me to death , now it's your turn to burn ." It wanted to say something else , but the alarm on my phone went off .

"That was not a pretty nightmare , . Well time to get up and get ready and ruin my own birthday party . "

I sat up straight on my bed , I don't know why but I just need a few minutes until I can get up . After around five minutes I stood up and went into my bathroom to take a shower , I also needed to wash my hair so the hairdresser can finish sooner . While in the shower I go over the plan , a few times in my head . All I need to do is make sure everyone is in the ball room , before getting started I walk in in my black dress , with which my mother won't be very pleased . Then I announce to the guest that , that Thron is rightfully mine and hopefully my mother won't make a big scene and crown me since I am the oldest .

After about 25 minutes in the shower I am finally done with washing and drying my hair , I get dressed in just a normal black jean and a white long-sleeved crop top . I also of course wear underwear , I still haven't gone mad the future Queen can't be seen wearing inappropriate clothes , otherwise my own people will doubt me . People's minds or opinions haven't changed much in the last few hundreds of years , so I have to be careful with every word that comes out of my mind , every decision I make and with anything I ware .

I sat down at a table and did some light makeup , so I could add onto it later without it looking bad , I just put on some concealer , bronzer and mascara . By the time I am done applying my makeup it's already 7 : 45 and I have to be at the hairdressers shop at nine , and it isn't that far away from here but better be early then late . So I call an Uber driver that said , he would be here in twenty minutes so I packed everything I need in a smaller bag , I took my phone , credit card , and money with me . Before I left to go downstairs , I took some platformed sneakers and a jacket with me .

I quickly rushed downstairs , said good morning to Mrs. Marie ,  grabbed an Appel  out of the fruit basket and sat down in a chair by the kitchen island .

" Today is the day Mrs. Marie , either is going to go well , or I am going to be the worst view person in history . I am hoping for the second one ." I said while taking deep breathes , my nerves are really getting to me today . I hope this would make my father proud , standing up for myself and the people of our land . I don't want to get married I just want to take the crown , so my sisters don't ruin our land , and then when I find the right guy I can get married .

" Am I doing the right thing Mrs. Marie ?" I asked , searching for some kind of comfort .

" I believe you are Sage , your father would be very proud , you know your just like him . You don't just look like him , you also have his heart your a good person . " Mrs. Marie said with a smile on her face , I really do hope she is right . I don't know how anyone will react to the show I will put on , I am scared my own people will look at me in a bad light , I got to take the risk .

While finishing my apple and overthinking everything of course , it wouldn't be me if I didn't overthink every single moment of my life . I got a notification from my Uber driver , saying that he'll be there in two minutes .

I got up and threw the remaining Appel into the trash can , put my shoes and jacket on . Grabbed my purse and checked if everything was there , and said goodbye to Mrs. Marie there's no going back now .

I got into my Uber and told the man , the address of the hair saloon I wanna go to , the drive is about 20 minutes away from here .

I know I am being a little bit selfish towards my sisters , but they told me themself's that they don't really want the thrown , or to get married . An arranged marriage almost never goes well , no one is happy in it . I still want to go to med school , I have the grades for it and the money to pay for my college tuition , but I also want to find someone that I really love , I don't want to get married to someone who just wants me because of the thrown , or the money .
