    I awoke to the sound of a knock on my door. I sat up and wiped the sleep out of my eyes. "Enter." I say. My handmaiden Carlotta came in. "Sorry to wake you m'lady. I have a letter for you." She said handing me a scroll of paper. "It's quite alright Carlotta. Thank you. Will you please fetch me a quill and ink. Plus some parchment?" I ask. "Of course M'lady. I will fetch that now." She answered rushing off. I open the scroll to see it was from my best friend Natalia.

~In Spanish
Estimada Elise,
Hola, Como estas? Me preguntaba le qustaría reunirse bajo el viejo árbol de sause. Me encantaría verte.
Amor, Natalia.

~ English Translation
( Dear Elise,
Hello. How are you? I was wondering if you would like to meet under the old Willow tree. I would love to see you.
Love, Natalia.)

Carlotta came back with a quill, ink and a stack of parchment. "Thank you Carlotta." I say. "Your welcome princess." She says leaving me to my Letter.

~In Spanish
Estimada Natalia,
Hola, estoy bien. Me gustaria le recibirá bajo el árbol de sauce. Me gustaria para verte así. Echo de menos ver uno de mis mejores amigos.
Amor, Elise

(~English Translation
Dear Natalia,
Hello, I am well. I would love to meet you under the old willow tree. I would love to see you as well. I miss seeing one of my best friends.
Love, Elise)

I called for Carlotta to come, she ran into my room breathing heavy. "Yes m'lady?" She asked. "Give this to the royal messanger. Tell him to bring it to Natalia Cleary." I said. She took the letter in her hand and exited.

~in Turkish
Sevgili Christine,
Natalya ve I toplanti vardir eski altinda _üt a_acl. Umuyyordum yapabilirsin bize katilin.
Ask, Elise

(~english translation
Dear christine,
Natalia and I are meeting under the old willow tree. I was hoping you could join us.
Love, Elise.)

Once again Carlotta ran my letter to the royal messenger. I smiled and waited.

-Later that day-

    I walked under the willow tree to see Natalia and Christine sirfing there talking. "Elise!" They squealed. I hugged my two best friends and we talked. "Elise how is your familia?" Natalia asked in her Spanish accent. "They are wonderful." I smile at them. "Alright enough with the small talk. Let's go have some fun." Christine said in her thick Turkish accent. I smiled and we ran off.
     We walked around and bought little things including matching bracelets. I paid for our lunch and we sat by the river talking. "Christine, how is you father. It has been far to long." I say. "My father passed away a few weeks ago. My brother is now the sultan." She says. "Oh my condolences. I did not mean to upset you." I say hugging her. "Its alright you did not know." She said. "Its ironic. My father and your brother were best friends paracticlly brothers when my father was a boy. Now here we are all these years later best friends practically sisters." I say. "This is true." She laughed. "Natalia my dear how is your familia?" I ask her. "Muy bien. (Very well.)" She said. I smiled and nodded.
    Soon the sun began to set and we had to go home. "I'll see you girls soon." I say hugging the two girls. "Sí. (Yes)" "Evet. (Yes)" They answered. I smiled and ran back to Castle Dracula.
