Something New

Mourning

Rapunzels POV

"Why?" I thought to myself. "Why me?" Tears rolled down my face as I buried my it into my arms. I recently revived the very worst news! My husband, Eugene, has died. The Twins wanted they're revenge. So they went and killed my husband. I have been sobbing for hours upon end, thinking this is all just a dream, but no. It's real. My arm is aching from pinching myself to hard. I lifted my head to receive a blast of cool winter air. Winter. Usually my favorite time of year. But not now. A week till Christmas and here I am sobbing while others are laughing and having a lovely time. I heard a soft knock on my door. "Come in." I said. My Mother stepped into the room. "Rapunzel." She cooed "I know your grieving but you have to get out. Make some new friends." She walked over and wiped my tears. "It was very sudden, it surprised us all. He was a hero when he died. And he wouldn't want to see you crying." I listened to my mom carefully. I knew she was right, but I just couldn't find anything to distract me of Eugene's death. "Mom, I try to get my mind off it, and I feel like I'm falling apart. Don't you see, Eugene held me together, I don't know what to do without him, I- I." Soon tears started forming, I choked back a sob. I buried my face into my hands. My mother soon walked over and hugged me. We stood that way for a while until my tears came to a stop. "Mom," I began. "I don't know what to do..." She quietly listened. "Shhhhh, Rapunzel I know times hard hard for you but you have to have faith that things will get better, because they will." I looked at the floor. My mother spoke once more. "Get yourself dressed and come down for breakfast, your father wishes to speck to you.

I slowly walked down to the dining area. The hallways I walked through were full of my painting, my dreams. I got to the kitchen soon enough. The smell of freshly cooked biscuits filled the room. I walked over to where my mother and father were sitting, and took a seat. "Good morning Rapunzel. How are you this morning?" The king asked. "Fine, how are you father?" I responded. "Very well myself. I have big plans for today!" "What kind of plans?" I asked. I was very curious to know. My father didn't consider just anything big. "Well, lots of big plans, and one of them involves you." He stopped. I gave him a 'continue' look. "Rapunzel, how would you like to give Princess Merida a tour of our kingdom?"

I know it's short but I promise the next will be longer!!!! Thx xoxo Pay
