chapter warning: underage death, car/truck/traffic accident (?)

" Aaah, I'm bored. "

Margaux sighed as her eyes flew to look outside, focusing on the pedestrians walking below her window. It was a rainy day and she couldn't go outside, so here she was, studying in advance for the final exam of middle school, the French National Brevet diploma... or Brevet for short. 

She would have to take the exam in four months, but she had no choice but to prepare a bit earlier.

The reason why?

It wasn't the first time she was taking it. 

She had to repeat the school year because she failed the exam last year. She didn't want to fail it again. Not for herself, but for her parents who wouldn't stop reminding her of her failure. Even if they tried to appear quite accepting in front of the teachers, they had been extremely disappointed by her results.

It wasn't even because she had failed to study correctly. She had read everything she could to succeed, even going as far as to seek other sources to broaden her knowledge. But the moment she'd found herself in front of her exam papers, her mind had gone completely blank. The teachers had said this could've been the result of too much stress... Stress that her parents had given her. If anything, it was their fault she had to repeat the year.

This wasn't the only thing they were strict about.

Every time she brought up her dream of being a singer, they would shut down immediately. They had tried to make her quit her hobby multiple times, in vain.

She just liked singing so much. It made her feel alive.

She was reviewing her last physical chemistry class papers when she heard her phone's notification noise. She picked it up and went to lie down on her bed for a bit. It was a text from her friend Fanny.

"Hey wanna, hang out tomorrow?"

- Sure, why not. If I can convince my parents lol.

- Just tell them you're coming to my house so we can study together.

- You know they'll call your parents to confirm, right?

- Well, too bad for them! My parents are going out too! Wanna meet at the park near the school?"

- Haha! xD Okay then, see you there! "

Margaux closed the text tab and hesitated.

Uh, I don't want to go back to studying, I've been doing this all day... I'm taking a break.

She opened the Internet tab and decided to go read a bit. Margaux loved fantasy. She was attracted to drama stories of princesses struggling with their status or just, royal stories in general. One day, she stumbled upon a story called " Lovely Princess ".
