Bryanna's POV

A week later Bryanna and the servants at Hillsburry was barely starting to get over the excitement of the ball. She was pleased and guilty that her friends did indeed do her chores and much, much more then was necessary. When she had arrived home she had asked them why they did so much, and hadn’t taken the time to rest, before her steps got back.

They told her that her steps would get upset if only the things they had asked to be done, was the only things that got done. She knew they were right, and as it were, her steps still got after them, but they all could tell that they were surprised at how much had got done. They could tell they were also trying to spite them.

“Bryanna, clean off this table, I’m trying to read and drink my tea in peace and quiet, and…” She said with emphasis.
“In a clean environment!”
“Of course I will, Lady Linda” She said as she removed a single pen from off the table it was the only thing on the table except for the built in vase at the center. The vase was filled to over flowing with black-eyed Susan’s,baby’s breath, ranunculus, and lavender.

She was in the middle of thinking that she wanted a bouquet just like that for her wedding when Iknoll came in and said,” Miss Bryanna…”

He was stopped in whatever he was about to say when Linda shouted at him,” Don’t you dare call her miss, or lady, or mam; She’s a servant, A SERVANT!” She shouted,” And if anyone and I mean ANYONE calls her that they will be let off, and I’ll make sure they won’t be able to get another job. In fact if anyone calls her that I’ll let off the whole staff, GOT THAT!”

Iknoll looked bewildered for a moment then he recovered quickly and replied,” Yes My lady.” He bowed then turned back to Bryanna and said,” Robert said to tell you that one of the rose bushes by the gate needs your attention.”

He watched her eyes grow wide then her face flushed, and Linda of course had to remind her that if the estates grounds looked like a dump she would let off all the servants and wouldn’t hire anyone for a month and Bryanna would have to do all the work. He kept his cool but just barely, he couldn’t stand the way these people treated Lady Bryanna, for that was what he would always remember her as, they treated her worse than the actual servants.

When they were out of site and earshot, he put his arm around her and squeezed. He wanted her to know that even though they had to disrespect her they still loved her for who she was. He knew all the servants wouldn’t be too thrilled about calling their mistress by her given name, but they would do it for her, not for themselves.

Lady Bryanna might not know it but the servant’s loyalty run deeper then she could imagine, and they would never betray her.

“Do you want me to send one of the maids with you to help with the rose bushes?” He asked feeling sympathy for her.

“No, you need to spread the news about my name. To be perfectly honest I don’t mind if everyone calls me…” She stopped for a moment and thought about how she had told the princes servant that her name was Ann, if he asked one of the other guards where Miss Ann was she would be found out.” I want all my friends to call me Ann from now on it doesn’t matter who they are speaking to, As long as anyone else is concerned theirs no longer a Bryanna here.”
