So, she saved a helpless child, it was off instinct.
She was no hero, and she knew that. She never expected to be treated like one either.
And she wasn't...

THE NEXT MORNING, I woke up an hour earlier then need be.
After what Vivian told me, I was determined to speak to Prince. I won't name Vivians name specifically.
When I woke up at 6:30 in the morning, there was already an outfit laid out at the foot of my bed.
I took a shower and brushed my teeth. I stood in the bathroom in my strapless bra and black underwear as I brushed my damp hair. I decided to wash it so I could straighten it.
As I bent down in the bathroom, looking for a hair straightener, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" I shouted from the bathroom. I peered my head from the bathroom doorway and watched as the person on the other side of the door knocked again.
"Um- come in!" I reluctantly said.
It swung open and revealed Maria. I smiled to myself at the familiar face.
"Maria!" I jeered as I stuck a leg from behind the doorway. "It's good to see you."
"You as well." She smiled. She held a small plate of food in her hands as she fully walked in.
"What's up?" I questioned.
"The Don ordered the cooks to make you breakfast." She answered as she placed the plate down.
Eggs, bacon, and a small chocolate chip muffin was what the plate consisted.
"Thanks that's... thoughtful?" I tilted my head.
"Yes, it's unusual for the Don to do something like this." She admitted quietly as she glanced back at the plate. "What are you looking for?"
"Oh, a hair straightener. Wanted to try a new style." I said with a laugh. She nodded and walked into the bathroom, past me.
She turned around with said hair tool and I smiled.
"Thank you so much."
"No problem."

After my hair was straightened, I stood in front of the mirror.
"You look amazing. Still." Maria reassured.

I didn't know why I was so hell bent on looking good today. If I was going to talk to Prince, I had to make sure I looked professional enough to get his attention.
Plus, all men are the same.
"Thanks." I say as I look at her reflection in the mirror. She gives me a smile before looking down.
