Year 1575; Lorraine, France
"GIRLS COME INSIDE it's time for lunch"
The modulated voice of the Queen of Lorraine, widely known as Marguerite de France, echoed in the gardens of the palace.
She was right, it was already 3:18 p.m. and the three little girls had been playing outside since they woke up around 10 a.m.
"We are coming mommy", the one girl answered
It's pretty obvious, this girl was Queen Marguerite's daughter. Named Angélique Elodie, her friends would call her Angela.
There was no person in this world who wouldn't stop to admire the girl's beauty. Her light brown hair were like wheat in times of harvest. Her ocean blue eyes make you think that you were lost in the planet's widest ocean. Her soft light skin was looked like pure silk. Her pink lips were always curved into a smile that could instantly melt your heart. Her eyebrows were not shaped, which only made her more unique. She had two or three small moles in her face but there was nothing wrong with that. Her face had the perfect harmony. She had he perfect harmony.
But she wasn't just a beautiful girl. She was much more than that.
Every friend of hers could assure you that she had the ideal character. She was always kind, loving and sweet even to those who didnt deserve it. She had generosity, integrity and parsisatnce. More than that, she was decent but also devoted. She was a princess after all.
However, as a human being she had some bad character traits. She didn't forgive easily and she was impatient. But the most important thing was that she didn't want other people to force her do things about her life. From a very young age she wanted to take care of herself and she couldn't stand people who impose their opinions and put pressure on her.
The other two girls with her were her childhood best friends, Marié Odétte Payne and Estrella René Bauer. All of their parents were kings and queens of different areas of France so they knew each other. The was no rivalry between their parents, actually they were preety close and had a strong friendship. As a result, the three girls grew up together with each other's company.
"We will continue later what we were doing", Angela said
"Let's go inside"
The 7 year-old girls run quickly inside where they faced their mothers waiting for them.
"Tu es enfin venu!" (finally you are here), Queen Anna of Bretagne answered
She was Mary's mother and they were alike- both in character and in appearance. She was a beloved queen.
"Lunch is ready", Queen Ella said loudly form the kitchen
Queen Ella of Aquitaine, Estre's mother, was also a great Queen for her kingdom.
People loved her and everyone was hoping that Estre would be like her someday.
The food was ready and it could be nothing else than the national food of France, Pot-Au-Feu.
Of course the little girls eat quickly so as to finish first and go play. After everyone is done, they go upstairs in Angela's room.
Every detail of it was decored carefully. Just with a look you could understand the money spent on it.
The three girls sit on the chairs around the pink tea table and talk.
After some time the girls are bored. They are kids after all.
"You know what would be cool?", Estre asked
"What?", Angela replied
"To make a promise. Like a friend promise", Estre continued and her eyes lit up from excitement
"Oh my God that's so cool! Let's do it", Mary said excited as well
"Okay let's do it", Angela said and smiled bright
They held each other hands making a circle.
"We promise to always love each other, support each other through hard times and be by each other's side", they all said in unison
You know what they say? People with good intentions make promises. People with good characters keep them.
Little did they know, this promise was real and it would last for a life time.AUTHOR'S NOTE
