Origin stories? I think yes 😌😌
Also, if there is anything you would like to read for filler chapters, such as maybe letters being written, a day in the life of Momo, who knows! Let me know, give me your suggestions! The story would go on longer!

Momo

Your father was best friends with her father when they were young. Your family was royal, and their family were very wealthy nobels.

Your father's friend was almost like an uncle to you; He was always around, and your father insisted that you called him that. He didnt mind that of course, in fact, he was honored.

You were almost two when your father told you that your uncle had a child. You were very excited, and wanted to act as an older sister. You always wanted that.

Their plan was to send her to a private school and to university across the world when she grew up. But father told them no, that they would have the scholars in the palace educate her. The same scholars that would educate you.

Once she was old enough to finally walk and talk, around four years old, you both finally met, rather than just being told stories about each other.

You both got along so quickly. And after the both of you would finish your studies, you would have tea parties with your stuffed animals.

When you were ten and she was eight, thats when you started to spend more time together.

"Princess, would you like help with your studies?" Momo asked.

"You dont have to call me that, Momo! We're friends after all! Call me Y/N." You smiled.

She smiled widely and nodded. "Okay Y/N. Would you like help?"

She was very intelligent. And you were too, but sometimes you needed help.

"If you wouldnt mind."

You were never ashamed to ask for help with your studies. Your mother was a bit worried, when she caught Momo doing your homework for you one day, but Momo was happy to help.

"You know, my dad wants me to travel with him." She said, smiling.

"You should go! You'll be coming back though, right?"

"Of course. Its mainly just for business. And I'll be learning about another culture and languages."

"Yes! I think that would be very beneficial for you."

"Maybe I could teach you when I get back?"

"Mhm!" You nodded. "If you wouldnt mind, could you also keep note of things?"

"Huh?"

"Here." You ran up from your desk and ran to the corner of your room, and grabbed a notebook. You flipped the pages to make sure that nothing was written in it, and handed it to her. "Will you write in it about the things you see? The food you taste? The things you hear?"

Momo looked at the book in her hands, and smiled brightly. "Of course I will. And I will write letters to you."

About a month later, she left with her father. During that month, you were lonely. You didnt know what to do without your only friend. But during that month, your younger brother, Ryu, was born.

With Ryu, it was sorta like having a pet around. You took care of him, but he didnt know what was going on. But it reminded you a little of how you took care of Momo.
