I could still smell the roses, tulips, sun flowers and the other flowers. It was a great feeling to get out from the castle and to enjoy what nature had given me. Thinking about what I had seen today, I realised that the world changed a lot.

As I walked into the Castle draw bridge, I noticed the people walking around, buying and selling things, decorating stalls and much much more. There were children running around. Probably four to six years old. Merlin sighed a couple of times because passer by tends to knock onto him and his bag kept falling.

"Here... let me carry this bag." I sincerely asked. He dismissed my request with a little push on my shoulder.

He drew closer to me and said, " No thanks , Princess." He said sarcastically.

Distance to the castle doors were not too far. Suddenly, there was a little boy who was not over four, knocked into me and fell back. I looked down at the cute little angel and kneeled down. I picked him up to his feet and brushed the dirt off his clothes. There were silence. I didn't notice that it was awfully quiet. I brushed the little boy's hair to the side since it was covering his face. With my long sleeve, i wipe off a little dust on his nose. "Are you alright, little boy? Don't run around here alright..... it's dangerous..." I smiled at the boy. "Where's your mother?" I asked him in a very sweet and friendly way. He was scared, I could see it. He was about to cry. And.. then he did..

I stood up and carried him in my arms,"awww.. don't cry little one.. i'm not gonna hurt you.... shh shh shh. Where's your mother?" I wiped his tears and looked around me. Everyone was staring at me. Some were fear and some were anger. Then a man walked towards me.

"He's my son..." he said with his face flushed with redness. From that look upon his face, I realised he hated me. I gave his son to him and tried to smile, although I know it will never changed what the man's thought about me. Damn! I was an 'awful' person.

"I am sorry for making him cry.. didn't mean it..."I truly felt guilty, although I knew I never did it. The man walked away from me, carrying his son who had stopped crying. I sighed. I turned to face the castle doors when I heard my name was being called.

"katarina... you've changed... you seems sweeter.. and friendly... The last time I see you, you were beating that poor little kid..saw that scar on his face?" the man with those deep rough spoke. My heart just break when I knew I beat that little boy. I knew I would never done it but.. I did it. From a far, I see the little boy hugging his mother's leg, with his eyes red from the cries. "Well I am not very enthusiastic to meet you but my father made me.. so here I am..." the man added. "Are you going to see my face or not, birthday girl?"

I turned around to see this gorgeous blonde man. He had a beautiful smile spread across his face. "hello..." I smiled.

"Not going say my name? or did you forget?" he said,

"erm... im sorry.. I forget..." I lied.

"Caleb... Caleb Griphoenix ( (sorry for the terrible name))The man you kissed last year because you do not like Princess Ananta Petrova marrying me.." he smirked.

I covered my face with my hands and whispered to myself, "Gosh!" the look up and noticed Merlin was gone. Once more, I looked at him and said my last words before I left, "Hmm im sorry.. I have to er...leave.."
