Isabella's POV:

It had been 2 months since my sister Amber understood that Daddy would always be there to help any of us, and to spend time with us

Right now, we are in the castle ballroom, where Amber was planning the annual berry banquet, where she wanted to go bigger than Hildy's Melon Ball in her castle

Amber and I spent time deciding what decorations, desserts, and berries to use for the banquet, especially the gigantic glass strawberry with jeweled seeds and the berry bowls with green swirled designs, her face painted on that she ordered    

I was standing next to James, Mom, and Dad, watching Amber instruct the servants to move the table 

Amber placed her right arm under her left elbow. "A bit to the left." Amber pointed to the left

The four male servants grunted, moving the table with a beautiful, large two-tier berry bowl with beautiful gold detailing, with a swirling golden top that held strawberries and leaves behind the strawberries

They looked at Amber, who wasn't satisfied with the place, raising her left pointer finger, "No, no." She motioned her finger closer to her nose, then instructed, motioning with her left hand in a vertical manner

The servants lifted the table and moved to the right

"Left." She instructed

They moved to the left

"Right." She instructed

They moved to the right

"Left again," Amber instructed

We watched the servants move the table to the left when she smiled

"Perfect." Amber smiles, holding her hands up

The 4 male servants lowered the table and exhaled in relief and exhaustion    

When we watched, Amber walked towards the barrels where they'd held blueberries, which are my favorite berries of all time, with Baileywick behind her holding a clipboard

"Now, Baileywick, I want the berries arranged by color and size," Amber instructed and informed him as she passed through the four barrels, then crossed her arms with a satisfied smile  

He glances at her, then at his clipboard, and notes down "Color and size."

We smiled before James and I looked at Sofia, who was holding a small basket filled with blueberries

"Amber," Sofia called, approaching her, "I picked some blueberries for you." She presented her basket as we smiled, watching her

Amber smiles in relief, leaning forward and resting her hands. "Oh, thank you, Sofia," She thanked her in relief

She grabbed one of the blueberries from Sofia's basket before beginning to inspect them. "Hm," She says before taking out a small telescope that inspect the shape and size of the item

But on this occasion, she inspected the blueberries before she made her decision. "They're not quite perfect enough for the main buffet." She lowered her smaller jeweled telescope and continued, putting the blueberry back in the basket 

"Everything has to be perfect for my Berry Banquet." She looked, motioning her hands towards the barrels, then hugged herself, then motioned to the barrels 

"The entire school is coming, and I've got to top the Melon Ball Hildegard threw last month." Amber continued, informing us with a slight concern 

Sofia and I smiled, remembering Hildegard's Melon Ball, where the cantalopes and watermelons were refreshing and delicious
