[that same night]
Hey, diary! So my birthday gala is over now. I'm happy, and everyone else is happy too.
Nicholas has been stuck in my head for the past few days. Thanks to him, everyone often sees me in a daze whenever I walk somewhere around the palace.
There's just something strange about him that makes me feel comfortable around him, and it feels as if we've known each other for years. His features remind me of the one person I've been trying to locate for a while now.
Nicholas makes me feel things that only Clay Moorington was able to make me feel.
They may be different people, but they make me feel the same feelings when I'm around them.

[a day later]
I took a walk around the palace to take my mind off some things—Nicholas and Clay, to be more precise. I was walking my way through the halls until I heard a few voices coming from a nearby room.
I heard the voices of my father and the prime minister. Though the peep hole at the door, I saw the royal parliament. They were focusing something important, something that even I, the crown princess, wasn't allowed to catch wind of.
Whatever it is, I will find out.
