"Haz omg!" I shout
" Des why are we shouting!" She shouts back
" Haz are you ever early?" Devika says playfully
" Dev do you ever stop eating," Haizea says back laughing at Devika and pulls her into a hug
" Aren't you gonna give me a hug as well?" I ask Haizea
" Of course, Des you don't have to be an attention seeker," She laughed at me
Haizea was always late she was never early and she gave the best hugs. She was supposed to join us for tea, but she, unfortunately, slept in so she was not able to come. Haizea was a character but was a wonderful friend.
" Your grace," The announcer bows to us," Who will be entering next?"
" I will," Devika said
Devika turned to us and said," See yall on the other side"
She winked at us and then checked to make sure that she had no crumbs on her dress.
" The most Honorable Lady Devika de la Roux Marchioness of Acqua, Casca and Areia and Daughter of the Duke of Okyanus! " The announcer said
" So what have you been up to Des?" Haizea asked
" Well you know my parents have been on Avyanna ass because she has caught the attention of a Duke," I said rolling my eyes
" Which Duke Des? That's great news for her," Haizea said excitedly
" I have no idea, I am hoping that I get to see him tonight hopefully he marries her so I can get her room," I said
" Aren't you gonna miss her?" Haizea asked
" My ladies, who is gonna go down next?" The announcer interrupted us
" I'll go," Haizea said
she turned to me and said," We will finish this conversation later,"
I smiled at her then let her go.
" The most Honorable Lady Haizea de la Fontaine Marchioness of Arbre, Dahon and Heyvan and Daughter of the Duke of Coedwig! " He announced
Would I miss her if she was gone? I mean she is my sister but was she really my sister? Did I really know her? What would I miss about her?
"Your grace you are next," He said to me
I stood in front of the door scared. I mean there are gonna be a lot of people looking at you constantly and judging you. If I did not look, good people would judge my family and my reputation would be ruined before it had even begun what would happen then. I was dragged out of my thoughts by the announcer's loud voice.
" The most Honorable Lady Desiree de Vere Marchioness of Ouro, Argento and Dragulj and Daughter of the Duke of Aberatsa! " The announcer announced
I looked down at the people there they all looked up at me but some ignored me which I was thankful for. I scanned the people trying not to stare at anyone. After 2 minutes of standing there, I turned my head to the announcer and he reassuringly nodded at me. I started to walk down the gold staircase and thanking my mother for putting carpet on the staircase because God knows how many times I have fallen on these stairs.
