"What's a royal ball? After all, I suppose it would be frightfully dull, and boring, and completely ... completely wonderful."
or
the one where Kairi Cosentino is treated like a servant by his family and Mattia Polibio is one of the richest princes...
As soon as i shut the door my step father was on my ass shouting about who i was talking to. "kairi who was at the door ?"
"it was someone from the palace , step father."
"are you talking back to me" he huffed out. I looked at him if he was stupid "i mean thats how a conversation works right?" i spat. ever since my mother passed ive been treated like dirt by this guy. Not a day goes by where i wish my mother never married this man , but she was happy and thats all that i cared for.
Her happiness.
"Watch that mouth of yours , Cosentino. Who was at the door"
"it was someone from the palace. they're having a royal ball and they invited us." i frowned.
" a ROYAL BALL??" he gasped out loudly
as soon as he said royal, Ale and Roshaun came running down the stairs. you see, Alejandro and Roshaun are my step brothers. they're actually really chill , but they don't want to get ob their dads bad side so they usually make me do what they tell me too unless Michael isnt here.
" wait dad- did you say royal ball?" ale stared with wide eyes (👁👅👁)
"yes son, i did. we here were invited to the ball , now skidaddle and go find a outfit because we have to look our best"michael smiled at him.
" bro thats SICK, roshaun come with me to go look for suits" ale screamed while running ip the stairs as roshaun followed.
when they left i saw it as an opportunity to ask step father about what mattia told me.
"i want you there kairi. please."
i opened my mouth but quickly shut it again. " Step father-"
"my name is michael , kairi."
" im sorry- Michael , i was wondering if maybe i could go too ? i'll do all my chores and i wont embarrass you i promise" i started going on.
" kairi , did you just ask me if you can go somewhere ?"
"well , i just thought maybe this one time i could-"
" i'll tell you what. if you do all your chores and finish , cut the grass, and do this list that i write out that you have to do , you can go." he glared at me with a smug smile on his face
" wait- really?? Oh god, uh Thank you , i'll finish , and it will be the cleanest it has ever been" excitedly i stated with a huge smile on my face.
" yes, thats IF you finish." and with that slapped a piece of paper on the table with chores on it. As he walked away i walked over to the list and thought to myself "i hate it here"
Chores for Kairi. •Clean the dishes •cut the grass •mop the floors •clean alejandro and roshauns rooms •clean the bathroom •take out the trash • water the grass •.........
the list went on and on and i really wanted to break down and cry. they always treat me like im some servant but im not and im so tired of it.
*couple hours later*
Cleaning the dishes , i heard the door slam open and ale and roshaun come in with their newly bought suits for the ball. a part of me wanted to be as appreciated and loved as them , but sometimes its better to be alone.
"hey kaikai, can you help me put this on ? im not sure if i have my tie on straight" ale came down the stairs looking stressed as ever
"of course ,ale" smiling, i dried off my hands and went up the stairs following ale to his room.

while fixing his tie , i backed up and told him he looked handsome. some part in me always thought that he was the more handsome one and i always compared myself to him. he's all that and im... not.
after a couple of more minutes it was 8:30 pm and my "family" started heading out the door.
"we'll see you when you're done kairi. but just remember. they wont let you in looking like that" michael said. then they were gone.
