The rest of the vacation was good. We went skiing, toured the surrounding towns, we even went camping. It was freezing, but very enjoyable. I learned so many new things about Austria, I also got to know about their culture and tradition better. On our last day, we went to a spa not so far away. It was so relaxing and calming.
On the way home, I remembered that I had not received a single letter from my grandmother. I was a little worried, but again I thought it was stuck somewhere in the carriage. I tried to call her, but she wasn't answering. I called Petra and Ana and asked how they spent days in the palace without me. I also called Mariella.
Me: Hello, Mariella. How are you?
Mariella: Your majesty, we have a problem.
Me: What's wrong?
Mariella: It is about your lady.
Me: Petra or Ana?
Mariella: Ana, your majesty.
Me: What about her? I just called her and she sounded fine, like always.
Mariella: I think that it is not okay to hear this from me. You need to ask her.
Me: I hope it is nothing very bad. I swear, if she touched royal jewellery and Nicolas' mother caught her, she is in danger!
Mariella: It is way worse than that.
Me: Oh Jesus. I will talk to her as soon as I arrive. Did you receive any letters from my grandmother?
Mariella: Unfortunately, not. Not a single letter.
Me: Okay. I hope everything is okay.
Mariella: Did you try calling her?
Me: Yes. She is not answering.
Mariella: I hope that everything is okay. Your majesty?
Me: Yes?
Mariella: I am ready to tell you about my past.
Me: I am so glad that you trust me enough now. I can not wait to hear it.
Mariella: Okay. I will wait for you in your room.
Me: Okay. Oh, and...
Mariella: Yes, I will make you a hot bath with rose petals.
Me: Thank you!

After a few hours of travelling...
We stopped at the restaurant to have lunch.
Hostess: Willkommen, haben Sie eine Reservierung?
(Welcome, do you have a reservation?)
She looked at her list.
Hostess: Ähm, Herr? Ich fragte, ob Sie eine Reservierung haben.
(Um, sir? I asked if you have a reservation.)
She looked at us and eventually bowed down.
Nicolas: Nein, wir haben keine Reservierung.
(No, we do not have a reservation.)
