"Better than I could ever imagine...
I made a new friend, prince Sebastian"
"Omgggg I love the name Sebastian" I say honestly
" I know right?? He is so nice to me, and we were partners during our dance lessons, he danced so well" she says and I can see pink stuff on both sides of her cheek, wait, is she what, BLUSHING??

"Wow, what kingdom is he from"I ask her
"He says he is from Camelot"
"Oh Camelot is it?? Papa invited the Royals for my ball so he hopefully will be there" I tell her and she starts jumping uncontrollably

"My_Oh_My My_Oh_My My_Oh_My" she says in sync with the way she's jumping dramatically

I'm about to say something before she starts
"What if he doesn't like my dress? What is he thinks I'm ugly?? What is he thinks the kingdom is ugly??? What is he thinks the whole world is ugly
Oh_My My_Oh_My My_oh_My" she raising her hands dramatically and gushing the questions out like a CRAZY PERSON

"Oh calm down now DD will you??"
"I mean you just met him today and you're this insecure already" I say, Oh love is crazy

"It doesn't matter if I met him today or just now, its called love at first sight" oh no
"There is no such thing as 'love at first sight' now DD, its just a mere infatuation" I tell her meaning it
"Now most truly I say to you, there most truly is love at first sight" she says like its the most correct statement she has ever made in her whole beautiful life

"Whatever DD, arguing with you about love is a dead-end" I tell her
"Now you've got that right" she says laughing with her mouth closed, is that even possible??

The rest of the day goes by fast, I spent my day with my little sister and I don't regret it

*knock knock*

"It is I Bella"I hear a voice which sounds so much as that of my mother
" mother??"
"Aye Bella"
"Oh come on in mother" I say as my mother starts coming closer to and opens her hands wide for a hug
"Oh mother, how did you sleep"
"Better than I deserve" she says but I get a feeling she's joking coz 'cmon, she's like the Empress of an Empire
"And you" she asks me
"Well, I'll say the same"

"I just made inquires about the college you'll attend, I and your papa will break the news to you during dinner"
"Oh that's lovely mother, thank you
And until then"
"No problem at all dearie"
"Aye"

*knock knock*

Is the sound that is heard on the door when I and mothers head tilt to the direction that the sound is heard which is the door
"Who's there" mother says before I could open my mouth
The door opens and I see a king_like structure, you know with the gold, potbelly and all... Papa

"Oh Margrave" my mother stands and goes to my papa and they share a what kiss??
Eeekkk such a disgusting sight
"How do you do my lady" papa ask mother still holding her waist, okay so am I invincible
"How do you do" mother says before my papas eyes evert to my direction
Finally, I'm vincible once again

"Oh princessa" Is what papa says as he widens his arms for a hug
"How do you do papa" I say as he squeezes me in a tight hug
"How do you do too Bella"

The three of us sit on the round coffee table in my chamber

"How did the meeting go" mother asks papa
"Oh it went well"he says
"But what didn't go well is that the "meeting" is called a "meeting""

*silence and intense gazes*

"I mean we already met before so it should called an 'another meeting'"
Okay that doesn't make sense
"Papa, i..." Mother cuts in before I can complete the sentence
"Don't bother Bella, it clearly won't make a difference"
"Well, I won't exactly argue with that" papa says while laughing he's butt out while Mother dearest and I are just starring like 'OhMyGosh'

The rest of the evening goes by at a rather normal pace before we're called for Dinner

"Hello papa" Diana say in her sweet little adorable voice
"How are you princess" papa says while standing to kiss her forehead
"I do well papa" she says
"Aye"

"So Belle darling" papa says while diverting his attention to yō (me)
He hands a letter to me

"So Belle darling" papa says while diverting his attention to yō (me)He hands a letter to me

I read the letter twice over

" Wow papa, that's lovely"
"Lemme see it" DD says and I hand it over to her instantly
Her eyes blooms with amusement and joy but then is conquered by sadness which she is quick to reconquer because she doesn't want me to know she's sad I'll be gone
"This is amazing" she says still looking at the paper
"Well thank you DD"
"Yea... It really is amazing... I find it hard to believe you're really going
" To be honest, so do I"

"Don't worry, its for the best" papa says
"Maybe you'll finally have a shot at true love coz these princes are most definitely not your type" mother says placing her left palm on the top of my right palm and grinning at me like I'm her desert
I take it that she's over_the_top outrageously grinning which is... Weird
"Maybe" I say in no mood to argue

"Who'd like to hear a joke"
"No
Stop
Don't" says DD mother and I at the same time
"I'm gonna say it anyway" papa says and the three of us cover our ears with our fingers singing "lalalalalala"

Papa takes us off guard when we've removed our fingers from our ear and says
"If the past tense of come is came, why is that of go not game"
OhMyGoodness I do not believe I just heard that, oh my poor ear

"Oh no Margrave" mama says laughing
and shaking her head in disapproval
"Hahaha" DD says sarcastically and that made mother and I release a big fist of laughter which papa eventually joins in

Such a lovely evening

*4 days later*

The last four days went pretty much normal- food, lesson, sleep, food, papa's boring jokes, mother's pep talks and DD's love speeches

I wake up to a very excited mother claping her hands like a crazy person
"Bella, tomorrow's your last ball"....
