Today is the day me and my family are moving in with the baron. I hope it'll be better than living in the village..Carriages are comfortable to ride in but I'd prefer to walk. "I looked out the window and sighed." The sun is to bright.. mother why can't we close the curtainsss.. "she replied* enough with your complaining your lovely little sister wants to look outside and she likes the sun..Yea! The sun is so cool, it's makes us feel hot and make us sweat! "Lilly then said happily"
Why are you so happy? "I questioned" big sis! Of course I'm happy. We're going to be the barons daughter... I scoffed at her.. we? It's more like you"
What do you mean big sis? "She said nervously with tears in her eyes." "I was stunned . I didn't expect her to cry' i- "my mother quickly spoke up"
Listen Lilly. Esra won't be staying for a long time.what why not! "Lilly shouted." Lilly dear let's talk about this later. Alright? But mommy! I want to know "she yelled" Lilly dear the baron won't be happy to have a daughter who would act like this.
The second Lilly heard that she calmed down. I'm sorry mommy.. "she said" it's alright dear.
Mother how long will i be staying? " I questioned" Esra let's talk about this later.. not in front of your sister. "She said coldly" I just nodded and looked back out the window..(2 hours later we reach the barons estate)
The minute I got to the estate my eye widen at the beautiful mansion and all the flowers. The maids and butlers were standing outside bowing welcoming us. I was ecstatic. Mothe- before I could finish what I was saying lily got to it first. Mommy. This house is soo big! I cant wait to live here.
Lilly turned and smiled at me" big sis I cant wait to live together forever~ I scoffed when she said that.. yeah I am to Lilly "I said." Esra, Lilly make sure you act polite and remember don't cause any trouble.
After we had a decision we went into the estate and had a big surprise waiting for us. My love welcome. "The lord said" I have brought you and my daughter a gift. "The lord hands over my mother a ring and a box with a dress inside and then he gives Lilly jewels and flowers then he looks at me and then looks back at my mother and Lilly ignoring my existence."
(2 weeks later)
After moving in my mother and sister started treating me even worse. I'm planning to leave in 3 more days.
As I was walking through the garden I came across Lilly sitting down in the grass playing.
Lil! What are you up to? "Lilly turned to me and smiled." I'm playing with birds wanna join? "She said" I had a confused expression.. until I walked closer and saw her sewing a dead bird together with another one.. l-lily! What do you think you're doing! "I yelled with a terrified face" she suddenly throws the birds into the river."Hmm... big sis do you not like killing animals?" W-what of course not! "I replied" listen I don't want harm animals or people it's wrong to do that. Unless it's necessary.
Necessary? Esra you're supposed to destroy the world! I don't want to hear that rubbish from you!"She says as she rolls her eyes." Ya know mom should've thrown you out! Cant you see you're just a nuisance.
Even though she's right. It's not okay to just kill animals without a meaning. She's only 14 and she's so darn twisted..
Yeah you're right Lilly but still your 14 you shouldn't be doing stuff like that. Don't try to be like me..Alright? "I stated, hoping that she would never do something like that again. I don't want her to cause trouble furthermore she should just live peacefully unlike me. I'm the devil of the family I'm the one who should be acting like this not her."
Lilly looked up at esra and smiled. Okay big sis!
From the distance the maids were walking towards us rushingly. When they reach us they turn to me.
Lady esra. "The maid says" yes what is it? " I replied"
The lord has summoned you..thank you I'll go now" I replied." so then I went into the estate. As I walked through the halls. All the servants looked at me terrified and nervously.It wasn't any different than usual. But still it makes me uncomfortable when t people act that way around me. I stepped into the lords office and bowed. Good evening. Father you called for me. " I said" yes I did. Welcome Esra I have a gift for you. "He replied." He opened a box and gave me a black dress and a two cloaks one brown and the other black" father what is this for? "I commented."
As you know Esra your a crimson haired child and your born to cause chaos. You were supposed to leave in 3 or 2 days but now you'll be leaving early.
I was shocked and confused." Why father? Why must I leave this early? "She questioned" The 3rd prince will be coming over. "He said" father he's the 3rd prince what type of importance does he have with you! "She exclaimed."The 3rd prince is currently 14 furthermore I want lily to be engaged with him. "He says" B-but father! What if Lilly doesn't want that?! "She shouts" Lilly has already agreed. "The lord replies and looks at esra coldly and full of hatred."
You'll have to leave tonight. "He says and hands her a bag of gold" you can find a way to make more money. "He says" father! How am I going to survive with this hair color of mines! "Esra complained at the thought of having to survive like that."
Listen here Esra! You're a witch and you belong alone! I don't care if you die or live. I want you out of my house tonight! "The lord yells." Once he said that Esra realized she wouldn't be welcomed anywhere but she still had hope. "Fine! I'll leave tonight but I want one more thing from you my lord."she says."
The lord looks at her wondering what she's going to ask for. Give me a dagger "she says"
Are you sure? That's all? "The lord questioned"
She nods.The lord walked over to a cabinet and grabbed a dagger and handed it to her. Thank you.."she says"
As she says that she walks out the office and heads to her room.The lord watches as she leaves. He doesn't care if she dies or not. But he can't help but wonder how will she survive and if she'll actually destroy the kingdom.
Esra is walking down the halls and finally reaches her room. She reaches for the doorknob and glances down the hall and sees her sister and her mother smiling and laughing together. At the sight of that her blood boiled. She quickly went into her room and slammed the door.
