"Bella... Bella" my mother called
"Yes mother"
"I am so excited,  you're turning 17 already!!!"
"Mother,  I have until 3 weeks before I turn 17,  so you can calm down mother" I told her meaning it
"How can I possibly calm down" she says and waits for about 5 seconds before she continues
"I think we should have a grand celebration,  a very grand ball, which will be you're last before you go to college"
"Mother, do you think that is necessary,  I mean..."
"Of course it is" she cuts me off
"let me go inform your father" she says sounding really excited not even giving me the chance to reply before she  exits my room

Life as a princess is not exactly as people think it is
I don't have real friends,  or pets,  all I have are tons of ball gowns and tiaras with a whole kingdom to rule
Truth be told, I don't really think I'm fit to be a Queen yet,  life as a monarch is really stressful

As I'm thinking to myself,  I hear a knock on the door with the maid saying
"Princess Belle, please come down to the dinner room for dinner is ready"
I reply with
"Aye Madame,  I'll be there in 2"
"Okay my lady"
"I eagerly get off my bed because I am really very hungry,  and the feeling is a very rare and uncomfortable one to me
I make my way to the dinner room where I see my papa, mother and and little sister seated and it looks like papa just cracked a terrible joke because he's the only one laughing while mother and Diana are shaking their heads in disapproval.
" papa,  what is it you say now"
"Oh sweet Bella, I was just asking your mother why..."
"Oh don't Margrave, now don't embarrass yourself will you" says mother
"But..."
"Errrr,  papa was just asking why  the flavour of a food adds so much favor to it" Diana says shaking her head in disapproval
I burst out a big fist of laughter
"What's that eve...n supposed to me...an" I say still laughing I uncontrollably
"It doesn't even make sense papa"
"That's the reason why you weren't supposed to hear it" says mother
"Okay okay" papa says
"Now eat your food will you"
"Aye papa" I say trying to catch breath"

Minutes later,  I'm almost done with the delicious banquet we have here when my papa breaks my special bonding moments with my belly saying
"Belle dearie,  what colour of ball gown will you like for your  last ball" my papa says with a hint of sadness in his voice
"Papa its not exactly my *last ball*,  I'm still gonna visit England during my vacation an after I'm done with college"
"And I'll like royal blue and silver thank you"
"Okay Princessa" papa says
"You'll get just that"

He asks Diane and she says pink as estimated by all of us... She is what I call a pink freak
The rest of dinner goes silently and I think its because I'm going to be missed...
