I'm Only 7

"Kyoko!!" my father hollered from the end of the hallway.

"Coming~" I yelled back. I ran down the hallway to get to him. "Do you need something?"

"As you know, you will be taking my place as queen when you're 24." He said to me, "I have a prince from another kingdom coming to meet you. He shall be your prince and the king when you two are older and can take my throne."

"But dad.. I'm only seven.. Why so early?"

"No questions." He commanded me, "I will have Rosita come and help you pick out your clothes for this occasion."

"Alright.." I said quite sadly. I didn't want to have a prince. the thought of having a relationship with a boy made me quite uncomfortable. It didn't feel write but I knew I couldn't tell father as he would be very mad..

I walked back to my room with Rosita, my personal maid to go pick out a dress for the meeting. We walked into my closet and I began to undress.

"Ms. Rosita?" I asked, "Don't you think it's a little to early for me to find a prince.. I mean I'm only seven.?"

"If I'm being honest.. I do think it might be a tad bit early.." She responded, "But please don't tell your father I said that! I could get fired! You know how strict he is.." She pleaded, looking quite anxious.

She looked really nervous for some reason.. Did she think I would tell my father? I felt the same way..

"Don't worry, I feel the same way.." I responded calmy, trying to calm her nerves

"Thank you.." she said sounding much more calm. "What do you think about this dress?"         She held up a magenta colored dress with white and violet colored flower scattered all over the bottom in a pattern. The dress was short sleeved with poofy sleeves. She also held up a pair of plain white gloves and flats that matched my dress.

"Wow.." I said amazed, "It's so pretty!"

Rosita giggled at the expression on my face. She started helping me get dressed. While she was dressing me I couldn't help but think who this prince may be. I mean, he could be from any kingdom since dad didn't tell me. I wondered how he looked and what his personality was.

She finished dressing me and I walked over to the mirror. It was gorgeous.

"Let's go do your hair" she said smiling.

"Ooo~ Yes Yes!!" I said excited. I always loved watching Rosita do my hair. She always did it so perfect!

"Alright let's head over to the vanity then." She said.

We walked over to the other side of the closet and I sat down. Rosita got her hair stuff out as I watched her on the mirror.

She started by taking two small clumps of hair and clipped them together at the top of my head. She then pulled out her curling iron and turned it on. When it was hot enough she started curling all the other hair that was left. After about twenty minutes she was done with the curling. She took the clip off of my head, making sure to keep ahold of the hair and started braiding them. When she finished braining them, she grabbed a rubber band and tied the together. there was a little bit of extra hair at the bottom of it, so she curled those before putting away her curling iron. She added a flower clip on the rubber band to finish it up.

"Wow! It looks great Ms!" I said smiling.

"I'm glad you like it." she said smiling back at me. "Let's go out and wait for them to arrive."

"Alright! Let's go!" I said smiling again. Deep inside I was really nervous. 

We walked into the room we were meeting in. Dad was already sitting and was waiting for us to finish before they got here.

"You look very nice Kyoko." He said.

"Thank you father" I said with manner.

"The family should be here in no longer than ten minutes." he told me "You are excused Ms. Rosita."

"Thank you sir." She said with a polite manner. Before she turned away she looked at me in my eyes, smiled, and mouthed "Good luck". That made me a little bit more calm.

I turned to my father and said "You said family right? Who all is coming then?"

"The parents, your future prince, and his twin sister." he responded to me.

I turned back around and sat patiently, waiting.

About 6 minutes later, the doors started opening. I sat up straight and gulped down the nerves. I smiled very awkward as a family of 4 walked in.
