Hannah Hughes
I woke up as soon as I heard the song of the birds.
As if they know exactly when I get up my ladies enter my room. They begin to ask me things. If I am going to have breakfast, if I am going to bathe? The only question that remains is if I want to keep breathing. Don't think I'm a bad person. It's just that I'm sick of this kind of life it is so repetitive. I cannot do anything, I must always be presentable and have impeccable manners. I'm tired of living in a golden cage with someone else rules.
I am supposed to be a person and people are free, obviously the freedom of a person goes until when it begins to affect another people freedom, like my case. There is nothing to entertain me anymore. There is nothing that separates me from my sad truth. What did I do in my past life to make me feel unpleasant in this one?
Many girls would be proud to be in this world full of luxury. There are even people who envy me and are jealous of me. I wish I could change my life even one day ,one miserable day, I want them to be in my shoes and feel the pressure and the loneliness. I want to be in their shoes to see what normal life is like.
All I do is mistakes and more mistakes, they are never happy or satisfied. But you know what father and mother? I'm not perfect even if i try i'm never enough. I'm not elegant enough, dainty enough, feminine enough, I am very intelligent and that scares people. They are afraid of me because they know that I am not the same as others. That I don't follow the rules without asking where they come from. I am a powered woman and they are shitting their pants because in the future I will overtake them and destroy them.
I'm fed up, I'm sick of the behavior of the others. They think they are better than me because they are liars who prefer to carry the current with others but they don't even reach my heels and they would never reach my heels I'm not letting that happen.
I go down to get lunch trying not to forget table manners and be a Lady. My parents and I eat in silence you, heard nothing else but us eating. This is always the same since I took control of my life, I don't talk to my parents so much and they do nothing to change it. It's a win-win well played.
This was not always like. Before I was "normal" but I grew up and the silk fabric that covered my eyes fell off and I saw the truth of how the world is handled, Of how i was treated. They don't care about me, it is more important to leave their only daughter in the hands of a stranger at the age of 18 to form alliances.
I am a weirdo because i have a different think, a different perspective of life?
- Hannah now that you are 18 you should search for a man to settle down - My father said
- I heard that the Davises are interested in finding a wife for their son - My mother continued - The prince is going to participate in the annual dance - she finished her sentence with a small smile trying to convey tranquility
- Thanks for the offer but I have to deny it. I just turned 18, no one is rushing me to get married and besides, the prince is a despicable person. I don't care who he is or who I could become if we connect ties - I answer as slowly as I can biting my tongue and keep my words inside
- I do not understand why you did not want to establish a relationship with him - Father said- you were great friends, what happened? -
- Some people grow up and some stay in the past and they can't get over it -
Nobody really knows the Prince. Neither his family nor himself. What's the use of having a pretty face when you lack personality? Everyone is desperate, he's 20 and can't settle down. Not because he doesn't want to, no one has the patience or the decency to be in the same room for more than a minute. Do you want to know why? Because you start to feel like the air is leaving you, A very cold and tense air.
Everyone talks about him, how precious he is, how cold he is. But they are all assumptions, nobody knows him. Those who know him do not speak out of fear. What a waste...
- Anyway you know the answer- I said - I never go to those annual dances and this year will not be the exception - They know about my desire to be queen, a queen without a king by my side.
- Hannah Cassidy Hughes we want a future for you. And in that future you are not alone, You will have to learn where is your place. Because I don't want these statements of yours - Said angrily my father
