  Happy ever after when does that start? All I've been feelin' is annoyed ever since I got married. I mean jeez, does Cinderella seriously need to be so so...bitchy

"Charming! Charming,ugh come here this idiotic maid has just stabbed my scalp with a comb! Get rid of her!"

  Not to mention the complaining I mean she of all people should know how hard it is. She used to be worked like a slave by her stepmother but she spends five minutes  a princess and it's like she's an exact copy of her.

  "Yes my dear, what would like me to do?" I say trying oh so hard not sound as annoyed as I was.

"Don't my dear me you know exactly what I want you to do. Get rid of that imbecile." She spat out like venomous snake she was.

  "Love, that's the third hand maiden you've expelled this month. We can't keep firing them, the people will begin to...well  resent us." I said fighting myself not to lose my temper. This annoyed her she turned to me with the sweetest smile on her face in said "I don't care, Love." 

  "Very well then." I answered with a sigh. I motion the maid to go out the door. I mouthed wait to her as she passed.

  "She'll be dealt with accordingly." I said as I closed the door. I turned to frightened hand maiden.
 
  "Master am I...am I fired,because I really need this work my mum is..."she said so quickly she started to cough.

"Miss are you alright?" I asked genuinely worried about the girl.
"I'm fine Sir,I just breathed in to much air,am I fired?"she repeated.

  "No Miss your not just be careful not to let her see you for awhile okay."I said as I tried to sound reassuring. She looked up at me and sighed in relief.
