Chapter five: Tally

My brothers are 7 hours away. They started their selection yesterday. Mother called to tell me who she was rooting for, how she could have any ideas on the girls yet is beyond me. I don't think she has even met any of them yet.

Lars and I are living happily, our room in the palace is so amazing, and much more practical than having separate suites like they do in Illea. I am adjusting well to life here I think. The maids and butlers are all so nice and helpful. The citizens seem to be accepting of me. Lars is so busy I don't see him very often during the day. We wake up together and have breakfast in our room then he rushes off to work and I am left to fend for myself. I have lessons with the queen whenever she is free, she is teaching me what being a Belgian princess entails. She is also preparing me for the work of the queen. Lars' parents claim that the day he turns 21 they are stepping down as king and queen and we will take over. That gives us roughly 3 years.

Something I never expected is how much I miss my brothers, I expected to miss mother and father, but not them. I have always resented them deep down. If they had not been born I would have been the only heir and could have stayed in Illea. I love Lars with all my heart and Belgium is wonderful, but the country you are raised in will always be home.

We have no other news at the moment, the king and queen advise that we have children before taking over the thrown, but I am just not ready yet.
