We sat in our beds Olga writing back to Dmitri Pavolovich, Tatiana knitting another pair of Gloves and Me reading a book im nearly finished of.

A few minutes later Alexei bursted in the door with all his toy's in hand "Alyosha! what are you doing here? Please knock before entering" Tatiana stated. He sat beside me and said "Mama scolded me. Im the Big Trio's boy now!" He exclaimed smiling at us. We went in for a group hug and started playing with the toys he brought with him in the room we played war which was loads of fun.

We played for a while until we got called for lunch. We headed in the dining room for lunch we sat in our chairs. Alexei sat between me and Olga. Mama and Papa came in and sat with us we started eating lunch "Dearies i have an announcement. We are heading to Germany to visit your cousins and relatives!" Mama announced. Anastasia clapped in happiness. "Yey! When do we leave?" Maria asked as she took a bite of her grapes. "Tommorow so you better pack after we eat lunch okay? Your lady in waitings will help you" Mama stated.

After lunch we headed to our room and started packing with the helps of our Lady in waitings and Mama. I packed my books my sewing tool's my Box camera and more important things to keep me busy during the trip. I realized i hadn't sent my letter to Andrei. I headed out of our room and sent the letter to the Mailman of the Palace. I headed back to our room to continue packing for the trip to Germany tommorow.

I headed in the library to sit and read peacefully until i stumbled on a newspaper I picked it up from the floor and red the title it said: "Did Rasputin had an affair with the daughter's of Nicholas and Alexandra?" I mentally barfed reading it. Ew Rasputin is our friend he would never have an affair with me nor my sisters. Who spreads this kind of rumors? For what? To destroy my Mother just because she's German and doesnt handle the Government well? How cruel of them! I thought. I crumpled the paper and throwed it in the trash Olga entered the room with a Book on hand. Thankfully she didn't saw me throw that Newspaper out does she know about this? Does Mama and Papa know about the rumor? I thought walking back to my desk ignoring Olga's presence.

"A newspaper!" Olga exclaimes picking up the newspaper from the ground. I ran up to her and said "What does it say?" I asked "It say's Sofia Nikolaevna Romanova's birthday Occured on 0ctober 24 in Alexander Palace!" She said looking to me. Thankfully it wasn't those disgusting Newspaper rumors. Me and Olga continued to read the newspaper about my birthday. We didn't notice Maria walks in until she sat next to me "Hey big sisters! What are you reading? She asked  "Oh its an article about our dear Sofi's birthday!" Olga answered. We continued to read the article with Maria it was fun until Tatiana calls us to head in the living room with a worried face.
