Lucy arose from her bed, went up the stairs, and down the hall to check on Alice. She was still sleeping. Thank goodness.. She thought. Lucy continued down the hall to the kitchen and began to fix breakfast for herself and Alice. She ate her plate before going to give Alice hers. She opened the door and saw Alice sitting up in her bed lusting over the food.
Lucy: Morning Alice. I made you breakfast.
Alice: Thank you.. Thank you ever so much.
She said before she began to chow down on the breakfast meal.
Lucy: Alice.. I have been taking care of you for quite a while now and I only want one thing from you.
Alice: I thank you kindly for your compassion. What would you like?
Lucy: I would like to know an important detail and only you know the truth.
Alice: Tell me what you desire to know.
Lucy: Alright.. Who is the father of your baby?
Alice: The.. The father?
She said alarmed as she stammered.
Alice: Why?
Lucy: Alice. I have the right to know. You know we are not allowed to have any other person into the palace.
Alice: I brought no one here! He came to me!
Lucy: Who?
Alice: None of your business!
Lucy eyed her.
Lucy: I will see.. When I deliver this baby, I will know.
Alice: If I tell you, will you keep your mouth shut?
Lucy zipped her lips and crossed her heart.
Lucy: Not a word out of me.
Alice: Good..
She sighed and on the other side of the palace, Princess Dameta was just beginning to arise. She smiled and put on a blue dress. She went up the stairs and knocked on a door. She heard something move and then a groan.
Janet: Grace! Today is the day you start your training!
Grace opened her eyes and sighed.
Grace: Alright Janet.. I will be out in a minute..
Princess Dameta left and Grace put her head back on the pillow she had.
Janet: And do not lay back down!
Grace: Alright! Alright! I am up..
She sighed and sat up. She stretched and washed up. She put on her work clothes and went straight to Janet.
Janet: Lesson one. Always know what to wear.
Grace: Pick a dress?
Princess Dameta smiled and nodded.
Janet: You got it.
Grace: Alright.. I want to wear.. This one.
She picked out a yellow dress.
Janet: Great choice! Now, lesson two. Watch me.
She began to walk around the room with a straight back and with a book on her head.
Grace: How graceful.
Janet: Thank you. Now you try.
She gave Grace the book and placed it on top of her head after helping her posture herself correctly.
