Princess

Two days later...

Bang, bang, bang!

'Is that him?' Maddy thought to herself, she's been jumpy ever since Jeff told her about her brother. To say she's terrified would be an understatement. She would have to live with a complete stranger! She couldn't bear the thought.

"Maddy, come here." A voice said interrupting her thoughts, "I want you to meet someone"

"Down in a jiffy mom!" Maddy said loud and quickly.

She walked down the steps to, not surprisingly, find a strange man, about ten years older than her, standing with her parents.

"Maddabelle Monroe, you look so grown up! The last time I saw you, you were still in diapers." The strange man exclaimed, teasingly.

"Maddabelle, this is your brother, Charlie Venom Monroe, he's going to take you to georgeabelle." Maddys mom said quietly, almost ashamed.

"Yea, I know." She announced with anger swelling inside of her.

"Wait. How do you know? Oh, never mind, that doesn't matter." Maddy's father said, his voice confused at first, then growing more confident at the end of his statement.

"Yes it does! Because you're not the ones who told me. Do you know how hard it was for me to hear from this Anonymous person that I have a brother and he's taking me half way across the country?" Maddy said, her eyes watering.

"Wait, Mads didn't know about me?" Venom directed this question towards their parents, but Maddy answered anyways.

"Nope! Well at least not until two days ago when Mr. Anonymous told me" Maddy said, slightly more enraged than before.

"How could you expect me to take my sister half way across the country and have her not even know who I am?"

"What, it's your idea to send me off? What do you think I am? Someone when you've had enough of you just throw away, well I have a news flash for you, I'm your daughter and you can't just throw me away. You can't just hide my brother from me and make plans for me and expect that everything will be okay, I'm my own person I think I have a say in things too and also, I want to go with him. Maybe I won't be lied to every waking minute of my life!" I scream.

Father takes back his hand and slaps me across the face causing me to clutch my check in pain, and after he did that he looked like he felt bad, but only for a sec because then it's replaced with anger and he storms away with a raging older brother of mine storming after him.

Mom come over to me and hugged me, "I'm sorry honey. He didn't mean it and you know we love you but we have to send you away, and I can't explain why it's too much for you to understand."

"It's fine mother." I grumble and storm to my room, what kind of family do I have? I swear the only good one is my brother and I've only known him for like a couple hours.

Ugh! It's times like these that I wish I wasn't a princess, I wish I could live a normal life with normal people. Wait... I could have that with my brother!
