I avoided Nicolas for three days, and I avoided his mother as well. This place is very good for avoiding people, it is big, there are always a lot of people, and there are a lot of places to think that no one goes to. I still haven't received a response from my grandmother. I was a little worried, but it must be just somewhere in traffic. Petra and Ana went to private etiquette classes, I have to choose their husbands soon. I worry a little bit about all this with the marriage merger between my ladies and some strangers, but it has to happen.

Nicolas's room... (Nicolas' POV)
Me: Lady mother, I decided something.
Lady mother: Say, child.
Me: I decided that I am going to give Sofia a crown.
Lady mother: No, absolutely not!
Me: You do not understand.
Lady mother: Why do you think she deserved the crown? You can not give her the crown anyway, but the people.
Me: I don't think she deserves it.
Lady mother: Then why crown her? The people don't even know her.
Me: I will ask permission from the pope. And I will send a request to Rome.
Lady mother: Why did you change your mind about her so quickly?
Me: I have my reasons.
Lady mother: What happened when I was not present in the palace?
Me: Nothing. Now, please leave. George is going to be here for our chess game.
She came out without a word. I guess I'm doing the right thing, I thought. Today I will send a letter to Rome, and tomorrow I will talk to the pope. I sat on the armchair and looked at the fireplace. Suddenly I started thinking about Sofia. Why? That girl annoys me so much. But there is something in her that attracts me. What the fuck am I thinking, this is my fourth whiskey, and it's only been three hours since noon. I need to stop.
George: Hey
He interrupted my thoughts.
Me: Oh, hey.
George: What are you thinking?
Me: How long have you been here?
George: Minute or two.
Me: I am thinking about nothing, let's just play.

Hallway... (Sofia's POV)
I was talking in the hallway with Princess Angela and saw Nicolas' mother. Oh, frick. I can not run now, I will have to talk to her.
Her Majesty, the king's mother: Hello Princess Sofia, Princess Angela.
Princess Angela: I have to go, excuse me.
I looked at her like "why are you leaving me with her". I read the word "sorry" from her lips.
Me: Your Majesty (I bowed down).
Her Majesty, the king's mother: I have not seen you since I came back from Salzburg.
Me: I know. I was busy.
Her Majesty, the king's mother: Busy? With what?
