The night was young, the moon shining brighter than any star. It was almost time for me to make my way to the one place where he waits patiently just to see me. Every night at this time, he would appear in the middle of the ballroom, standing and waiting for me. I never questioned how or why he was in the mansion, but I knew he didn't have any evil intentions.
We danced in the ballroom, the earth playing the melody of hope and love. The moment was perfect. I thought it would last forever, but no. Once the clock struck for daybreak, he disappeared.

**Next Morning **
"Ms. May I enter your room?" the maid asked.
"Yes, you may. The door is unlocked. You don't have to be so formal; I'm not queen yet," Octavia gently smiled.
The maid entered the room, making sure she didn't look directly at the queen-to-be. She spoke, "My queen, those who are not royalty have no right calling you by your name."
"Who decided that? The world doesn't work like that. I don't want to be treated like I'm better than anyone. We are humans by nature, we all have skin. So tell me, who decided that royalty is that special?" Octavia turned slowly on her chair to face her.
The maid had no response. She stood still, waiting for Ms. Octavia to give her the right to look at her. "My queen, may I look up now?"
Octavia looked at the expression on the maid's face and knew she didn't want to work at the mansion. Her face reflected a child who is doing way too much for something or someone.
Octavia smiled, "Tell you what, I'm Octavia, and I would like you to be my personal maid. And what's your name?"
"My queen, I'm not allowed to tell you. Maids and royalty have limits. The maids should never cross the line and believe that royalty can be friends with the low."
Octavia frowned, "Fine, take this. It's a gift, a special hairpin. I command you. Also, I command you to be my personal maid and tell me your name."
"Okay, Oct... Octavia, my name is Sasha. And thank you, no one in the royal house has ever been this nice to me," Sasha smiled, "Thank You."
