Chapter 11

2 Weeks Later...

Lexi's POV

These few weeks have been hell for me, Mikayla won't talk to me at all and now she she is hanging out with Leah as if they are now best friends. When I see them in the corridors they always look at me but then continuing their conversation laughing and smiling. That use to be me and her, I need to find a way to apologise to her but how? Luckily, I have Francesca or I wouldn't be able to cope without her and I am so thankful she is best friend but also the person I confide in the most. I still remember how we met all those years ago.

11 years ago

The little 5 year old me was chasing a 7 year old Christian who took my favourite dolly in which my mama gave to me on my 1st birthday, which I cherished everyday since. Christian was picking on me again because the week before I poured a bunch of ants into his pants and embarrassed him in front all his sword fighting class. Me and Adam couldn't stop laughing that day but he got his revenge by taking my precious dolly away from me.

That's when he went inside his room and locked the door and I spent hours knocking but it was useless he wouldn't budge open. I slide down the door and began crying, he knew the doll was the last important memory that I had of our beloved mama. She died a year and 2 months after me and Adam were born of child bed fever after giving birth to Brianna. My papa spent hours mourning for her and he didn't know what to do with us so he just pushed us aside into another home and didn't usually come see us. The last time he came to us was over a year ago for Christian's 6th birthday.

Anyway, papa got married 1 month after mama's death to keep his important men that he talks to happy and he married a rude, cold lady that doesn't like us, who took our papa away from us and now I have 2 little sisters that I have never met and the maids whispers around us that when they will grow up that they will more beautiful than me and Brianna, even my papa loves them more than us but I didn't cry, I just didn't care as long I have Adam, Christian and Brianna I was fine and one day I was going to be crowned the Queen which will be more than those my 2 little sisters will ever be.

I just sat at the ground lent back on Christian's door and cried for my doll, I loved it because whenever I looked at it, it makes me feels as if my mama is there watching me and telling me it's going to be okay. That's when I heard a voice say

'Are you okay?' I looked up and saw a girl my age hovering above me.

'No. My brother Christian took my precious dolly from me.' I sniffled.

'Why don't we steal it from him later when he comes out for dinner. It could be a secret mission for me and you.' She smiled at me and I returned it.

'That would be awesome. Then we could get revenge on him and by the way I'm Alessandra.'

'I would love to and I'm Francesca'.

She lifted up her hand and I grabbed up and she pulled me up and then we started walking together as we walked down the corridor to my room discussing how we were going to retrieve my doll. And from day on we were Best of Friends.

Since the day I got fired I have tired to not cross paths with Charles, I got fired thanks to him but I am grateful I got a job to work with Francesca's household. Instead of being her personal maid, I am on her lady n waiting like she once to me. I think the other 2 ladies that she employed don't like because of my closeness to Francesca and how she would prefer to talk about gossip with me. As whenever I see them they always give me a rude look and whisper behind my back presumably about me. But I don't care.

Me and Francesca were walking down the corridor with are arms linked together and we were giggling at the time when me and her were 12 and we shoved the Duke of Castro's son in the fountain as he tried flirting with us. I looked across the room to see Valarie talking to some ladies. I had to hide immediately.
