As I pass by my mirror making the final changes, I look back to find the girl with long golden hair and shimmering emerald eyes. A turquoise off the shoulder dress with black linings accenting the eye colors. The black bow powering the brightness of the golden
light glistening by the suns rays. This is what Victoria Rosella, first born and heir to the Rosella clothing lines, looks like. Barely twenty minutes ago Viola Rosella, with her cyan blue complete turtle neck cover up dress and white skirt peeking at the left, the blonde hair messy and dull pulled back into a ponytail with her matching blue bow dulling out her green eyes, had passed by the mirror. Viola Rosella, the youngest child, twin of Victoria, was looking at her twin instead of herself. Her happy always kind sister compared to her bleak, slightly arrogant and angry attitude she present completely changes.
I, Viola Rosella, am looking at a perfect replica of my twin, Victoria Rosella, through this mirror.
-arrival-
Only halfway down the last flight of stairs, the knock on the door echoes through the quiet home, announcing the presence of, most likely, the earl Ciel Phantomhive. And just as quickly as the knock occurs Paulina had opened the door and my facade became evident. Only to be replaced by surprised. The male standing in front of me is the same one who was quietly crying over the red corpse just sometime ago. He looks as if that night never existed and stepped inside with no hesitation.
He, on the other hand, doesn't recognize me at all. I didn't expect him too and if he did I'd be quite surprised. That night I had been dressed like Viola, like myself and not like Victoria as the Earl sees.Then there's the butlers, well butler and chef/maid. They no doubt recognize each other and are playing it off as if they'd never seen their faces before.
I stayed locked in my position on the steps as I begin to introduce myself. "Greetings Earl, as you know I am Victoria Rosella, owner of the Rosella clothing company. It's a pleasure to finally be able to meet the Queen's guard dog. I was always curious as to who this guardian of the underworld was but I'd never imagine it was a boy around my age!" I say with a voice a pitch higher than my usual tone. I had clapped my hands together before I curtsied slightly before him.
The blue haired boy gave me a look of slight disgust. He doesn't fancy the energetic colorful ones huh? Or he might just not fancy girls at all..... Well that another matter.
"Yes, the pleasure is all mine. I am Ciel Phantomhive, Earl and owner of the
Funtom company." He said annoyance evident in his tone although his face was calm and emotionless, but still bowing down with the same respect.
"Well, if you would follow me to the gardens. I thought we might have tea as we discuss the current matters." I say with a sweet smile plastered on my face.
There at the center of the garden was a white table with platters of sweets and a tea set. The roses, lilacs and bluebells surrounding the simple fountain gave it a sense of a scene from wonderland. The tweets of the working birds, the slight buzz of the bees picking the nectar, and the spring wind briskly flowing through our strands of hair made the perfect environment. Paulina was standing at the center behind the table. She was holding a few letters,most likely for later, and some pieces of cake.
"If you would like to take a seat, we can begin when you'd like." I kept my facade painfully evident. It was a natural routine everyday, wether I'm out for a stroll or at home. I have few opportunities to be myself and there can't truly be any of Viola left.

So this is a relatively short chapter but I wanted at least this because I have no idea how to play out the meeting. Sigh I'll be putting a pause until I do the chapter for the other one. It's going in turns.
