She was an ordinary girl living with her parents happily in a village that was reigned by a powerful family.
Until the day she dreaded the most came, where all girls needed to participate in an activity where they will be tested so that the one...
"Well, you need to eat fast because I have to put lipstick on your lips." Nicole said and I nodded.
I was in my bedroom eating obviously. I woke up late so I didn't get a chance to join the King and the jerk, yeah I decided to call him that, for breakfast. I was wearing a blue vintage styles dress. It's very simple and I can easily move around in it. I was wearing white heels too. My hair was in a bun but some strands of hair were left out of it. Lastly, my makeup is light as usual.

"I'm really sorry I woke up late, Nicole." I said and she smiled.
"It's okay, Sel. At least you weren't late for everything." She said as she glided a lipstick on my lips. I smiled.
"This is stressing." I told her and she nodded.
"I know. By the way it's such an honour to be your maid. You are really kind, Sel." She said and I smiled before hugging her. A knock made us pull away.
"We need to go." The jerk said. I nodded and gave Nicole one last smile before following him.
"Remember, we need to act like we like each other and prove my dad that i'm indeed giving this a shot." He said and I nodded.
"This is really stressing." I said and he raised his brows at me.
"Well, get used to it." He said and I looked at him. This man has no heart. He suddenly held my hand and I was shocked but when I saw his dad or the King in front, I rolled my eyes.
"Ready, Miss Selena ?" He asked. I nodded and smiled. So, we roamed around the village for good 3 hours. I wanted to stop and hug my family who were watching from afar but I didn't want to waste any time. It was tiring but worth it because I saw people smile after seeing us.
After the parade, I ate some croissants and went to have an interview.
"Hello !" I greeted cheerfully and they all smiled.
"How are you, Miss Selena ?" A girl asked.
"To be honest, i'm tired." I said and they all chuckled.
"Are you happy that you're the chosen one ?" A man asked.
"I am. I mean, this is every girl's dream and living it is overwhelming and feels so surreal." I said and he nodded.
"What are your plans when you became the next heiress ?" A woman asked.
"Uhhhmmm...That's a good question. Honestly, I haven't thought about it properly but one thing that I do have in mind is to help those whose are struggling for a living. I want to be their voice and their inspiration. I want to be the one to save them from the insults of those who are higher than them." I said and they all clapped. I just smiled.
