We followed Tatiana to the living room we entered and sat next to Tatiana. Maria, Anastasia and Alexei was nowhere in sight. Papa stood next to Mama with a worried face.

Papa sighed and said "My dears there has been a rumour about you 5 (Olga,Sofia,Tatiana,Maria and Anastasia) having an affair with our friend Rasputin whatever you do do not say anything about it Do not speak up about it Understood?" Papa stated Tears started to drip from Mama's face. Everyone nodded their heads in agreement except for me "But not speaking up about it will make the situation worse! If we wont speak up they'll think that we actually had an affair!" I bursted. "Sofia i think we should just listen to Papa" Olga said looking at me. I nodded my head yes. "The reason why Maria and Anastasia aren't here is because their too young for this topics" Mama stated.

We left the living room after the meeting. I headed to my room to knit i think this time i'll knit a small hat. I was peacefully knitting in my room alone until someone knocked on the door i said Come in. Maria entered the room and said "Hey Sofi! Wanna go boating in the lakes?" She invited me i nodded my head yes and followed her to the lakes of Tsarskoe Selo.

Boating was loads of fun we splashed in the water run around all wet. Mama got mad at us so she sent us back inside to change. We decided that instead of boating we would just play hide and seek in the Gardens Anastasia was the seeker. I hid behind a flower bush. The guards knew what were doing so they covered me up "Thank you soldiers" i said quietly The two officers nodded their head

Minutes later Anastasia found me. I was the second one to be found after Olga. We followed Anastasia around trying to look for the others "Did Andrei got home safely?" Olga asked out of the blue "Yes he did he's in Yekaterinburg now with his family!" I answered starting to turn in a tomato again "Your blushing! Our dear Sofia now has a love interest!" Olga said. I rolled my eyes and shouldered her slightly. "Found Her!" Anastasia screamed as Tatiana walked out of the Tree "The Eldest 3 is now complete now only Mashka is left" Anastasia said we all followed her "Did you know they had an affair with Rasputin! How disgusting!" One of the woman whispered looking at us. I shot them a death stare "You wanna know what's disgusting? Your mouths! And if your gonna talk about someone like that at Least make it not obvious" I said shotting them a glare. They walked away how dare they! I thought "Sofia we are not allowed to speak anything about it!" Olga said "Sorry" i whispered.

We then found Maria who was hiding under the bench. We went inside to drink water and take some rest. I headed to my room grabbed my book and sat in the bed Tatiana was also reading in her bed "What if Rasputin is a fraud after all?" Tatiana said looking out of the window. "I dont know but lets hope not" I said giving her a smile. "I wonder who spreads this rumors like what for?" I said "I think they're spreading these rumors to destroy us or to make our Mama and Papa look like a bad parent eventhough they're not" Tatiana answered i nodded my head in agreement.

I layed down to rest my head about this situation i closed my eyes and started napping for a while until i was woken up by Olga saying that dinner was ready i looked at the clock it was 6:00??!! I slept for 3 hours Amazing! I thought. I fixed my bed and headed to the Dining room and sat down.
