     Marbeloan was a great man , so I had to meet his family . His step mother's name was Trestima (The Queen) - (Marbeloan's real mother died from sickness) . His father's name was Motalango (The King) . They were both very nice , but something seemed very different about his step mother . I don't exactly know what though .

     Trestima was a very interesting queen . She wore black lip stick and a big purple dress that squeezed her . She just wasn't fit for a queen . She fake smiled at me when we met , and then sneered at me secretly as I shook Motalango's hand . I knew something was up . 

     Marbeloan and I walked to the fields to talk and watch the sunset . Honestly , he hadn't spoken much , only with his eyes . They were beautiful though . I asked him why Trestima was so cruel to me when we met , yet I did nothing to her . He spoke softly , but calmly . " She is just that way , Trestima will never change . She is simply jealous ." Of what ? " Of you . She knew you were coming , she doesn't like you . " Well I can see that , but why is she so jealous of me ? I was so sweet to her , I - I really don't know what I di- " She has 2 daughters , Cecilia and Prosephina . She been looking for a husband for them since they were young . Sadly , she hasn't found one yet . And I'm the most handsome prince in my kingdom , which is exactly what she needs . But I have refused and refused to marry those childish princesses . I can't stand them sometimes . They don't love , they want me for money , and looks . " Oh I see , I'm sorry Trestima is like that .

"It doesn't matter , as long as I'm with you .

     They headed back over to the castle to meet up with Trestima and Motalango . Trestima quotes to all the beings in the castle , " Welcome , my dear friends and family , greetings to all of you today . We are having an annual dinner tomorrow night at six , you are all invited , please dress your best and be prepared for anything you might need . I'll see you all tomrrow . Thank you . " As the speech was over , we came over to them and politely said hello , trying to please Trestima and not get her in her temper . She said hello quick and short , in a stubborn way .  Motalango shook my hand and showed me around the castle , like a normal , polite , man . His room was a big as a golf course it felt like . Mostly red and golden paint . The bed was king size , ( of course ) . Testima's room was dark purple , like a monster , and and black striped . That's mostly just her personality painted all over her wall . 

     Marbeloan's room was perfect . The walls were painted sky blue with clouds and bright green blades of grass were painted at the bottom , as if they were real . When you looked at his bed , you could already feel how soft it is . Now his room , was the best . It felt like home to me already . 

     I'm still suspicious about Trestima , but I'm sure we'll get along fine sooner or later . Family can change , or sadly , stay the same . Marbeloan's family should be able to keep under control though , I'm positive , especially with him there . <3
