 Berlin P.O.V

On a beautiful day, I standing outside in the mourning slipping some tea I had made. I was observing the nature outside our house. I notice that the leaves were changing to many colors like a rustic red, a golden yellow, and a bright orange. Also there was a nice breeze from the east. I could tell that it was the beginning of fall. Fall was my favorite of all the seasons. I soon notice that I was out of tea, so I decided to go inside. I put my cup into the sink, and then I head upstairs to get changed for the day. I knew that today is when both of my brothers go to the world meeting that they have every month to talk about the world’s problems. I was never able to go to one because my brother Germany was worried that my enemies that I had made when I was a pirate would recognize me. But this time it was held were we lived, so they didn’t have to leave earlier. Today I wanted finally wanted to go to one since it was held here. So once my brother woke up I would ask him, but that wasn’t going to be easy. So I stayed up in my room getting ready as if I was going already. I was wearing a gray shirt with a dark green jacket with some black shinny jeans and converse. I also had my skull bracket on as well. I have never taken off that trinket unless I go to bed or take a shower. My brother says its dangerous to wear, but it’s like I can never leave without having on. By now it was 9am, which when I started to hear movement in Germany’s room which indicated to me that he was awake. I give him a couple a minutes to truly wake up. Soon, I walk up to his room. Come on you can do it, just knock on the door and ask him, I thought. When I was about to knock on his door, the door was opened my no other than Germany himself.

            “Oh, good mourning Berlin, why are you up so early?” he asked

            “Um, I wanted to ask you a question,” I said hesitantly.

            “Well, what are you going to ask me?” he questioned.

            “Um, wellIwaswonderingifIcouldgoththemeetingtodaywithyouguys?” I answered really fast.

            “Whoa, say that again, you said that too fast,” he said.

            “Ok,” I breathed to gain confidence, “I was wondering if I could go with you and Prussia to the meeting.”

            “No,” he said with a straight face.

            “Please,” I begged.

            “No.”

            “I’ll make a deal with you. If I go to this meeting, I will never bug you about it again. I promise,” I asked.

            “I see about, “he answered with a questioning face. By now he was downstairs cooking breakfast. I really wanted to know if he was going to yes or no. So I went up to him again and asked him, “Have you decided yet?”

            “No, not yet,” he answered.

            “Oh, come on. It’s not a hard question to answer,” I said back.

            “I’m still thinking.”

            “Just answer me already.”

            “Ok, here are the terms….” he said, but immediately I started jumping round and saying, “I’m going, I’m going!!! My first meeting!!” Suddenly Germany yells at me, “Quiet!!!” Then I stop right then.     

            “Ok, you can go, but there are going to rules. One, you stay by me all the time. Two, you talk to no one unless I say so. And three don’t ever blow your cover about your past.”

            “Ok, I promise.”
