She looks like a goddess and her voice is just angelic. She's free as a bird, she doesn't have a care in the world. Sometimes I look at her and wish I had her peace of mind. She is everything that I'll never be. She has everything handed to her on a silver platter and wears the most gorgeous dresses. She's royalty and has everything in the palm of her hands. But me? I work hard everyday only for my efforts to be put to waste but that's just a life as a slave. She's a princess who gets everything. I'm a lowly peasant trying to stay alive and get a good works pay and sometimes I wish someone would just save me so I could live peacefully.
One day I was tending to the garden doing my daily chores as I water every flower to make sure they were nice and hydrated. I jumped a bit startled by a gentle but familiar voice "Heavens...I wish I was like these pretty flowers...beautiful and serene..." I jumped a bit startled at the girl's lovely voice. I then put on a small smile and look at her "but my darling princess you are the most beautiful woman anyone has ever laid eyes on...every time anyone looks at you they feel a sense of calm wash over them...you are just simply...breathtaking!" I saw her face form a sad smile as she sat next to me. "Those are very kind words...thank you" I look at her a bit concerned. "My lady is something troubling you?" I watch as she hesitates and bites her lip nervously she then looks up at me. "I'm being forced to get married to another royal but I want to marry for love. I'm sure whoever my fiance is will be a good man but...maybe I would rather not depend on a man for money or protection." I gently hold the princess's hand and give it a small squeeze. "I can assure you that your voice is heard...and no matter what you will be a great ruler with or without a man by your side." I look at her calmly as she gives me a warm smile. "Thank you...would you like to be friends?" I look at her a bit taken aback "Friends?" I stutter a bit "But I'm just a lowly servant.." I anxiously look away. "Nonsense! You are possibly the kindest person I've ever met! I'd be honored to be friends with you!....Despite my status we are both equal!" she smiles softly and before I could say anything else she smiles and bows "You may call me Fallon since we are friends now we don't need any more formalities okay?" I look at her before giving a sigh of defeat "alright Fallon...you may call me Maya..." I offer a small smile. I then look at her confused as she puts a flower crown of Roses on my head. "What is this for princess?" She then looks at me with her icy blue doe eyes and gives me a smile warmer than a campfire on a cold night she then says "It's a symbol of our new friendship!" she laughs softly as she puts her own flower crown of violets on top of her luscious rose gold locks. I admire her beauty knowing that this is the first chapter of something new and adventurous.
