My sister teases about my own selection all the time I just hope she'll stop before mom and dad start to consider it. It is getting late so I thought I should get ready for the coronation ball soon.My guard (officer huxland) opens my door to the princess suite and my maids (Meeka, Kelly and Jill) do up the corset back onto long red ball gown. The sleeve are 3/4 length and it has beading around the top and it flows out at my waist.

  The ball was filled with photographers an people I didn't know but luckily all I had to do was say hi and smile. I had been asked by many to dance and I willingly took them up on their offer as we don't get to have this fun very often. Although the Palace seemed very relaxing and easygoing it was a heap of paperwork and straight focus followed by exquisite lessons on manners, history and other stuff. As the night became morn I headed back to my room to get undressed. I found my maids sitting in my chair reading "what do you think you're doing?" I questioned. They all rose to their feet " um your highness-" I interrupted " I was just kidding I'm glad you found time to relax." They all smiled in relief " let's get you into the bath miss," Meeka instructed.

  The next morning I woke and was told to go to the recording room for our segment ( we get about a 5 minute segment on the news). We all sat in our places as Rodger said "and 3,2,1 we are on." We all sat up a little bit straighter and father began to talk " Over the years and generations you've see each one of the heirs grow up and settle down well I am happy to announce Abri will be her own selection in exactly three weeks," I looked at him with my eyes almost burning out of my head, " 28 men from across the country will be selected but only one can win.  Starting tomorrow go to your local town square to enter, now princess Abri would like to add." I was speechless but this could be dealt with after " My selection is a serious matter this is my husband I am finding so please come with the right intentions or you will be immediately escorted from the premises, thank you all and have a great day." I stormed out of there as I would If we were under attack. I ran to my room and buried my head in my pillow wondering why I ever got up this morning and trying to process the last 10 minutes. Then I heard a knock on my door "go away," I commanded. Mother and father thought they had the right to barge in anyway." Honey I am so sorry your father got out of line." Dad clearly thought he knew best "oh Kay you were wanting this to happen all along," they continued fighting until I yelled," JUST SHUT UP both of you." Silence dawned on the room  " both of you have thought you know what's best for me my whole life I am sixteen for pity sake I want to live my life not get married and have commitment before I am ready and don't even start how you went through the exact same thing I AM NOT YOU!" I slammed the door an ran, ran as far and fast as my legs would take me.
