"Katerina it's your time, you need to step up it's what they would want." My best friend said handing me my left glove.
"You dont understand Elie, they have been gone for one day and I have to become the leader of this kingdom all by myself, I didnt even get to say goodbye and they want me to act like it's not that big of a deal and that this is what I'm meant for! I dont care if this is what I'm meant for, im meant to be a normal 18 year old, I'm meant to be going off to college not stepping up and taking this throne, I'm not ready El...so not ready." I ended my rant with a whisper falling to the ground and letting my emotions consume me.
"Kat, I understand you need time to grieve, it's normal. I'm not saying you wont have time to do that but this isnt what they would want you to be doing, crying over them I mean...you need to get up, be fierce and stand strong! You are going to be the one holding this kingdom together, this is what they wanted, they didnt turn the crown over to you because they thought you couldnt handle it, they turned it over to you because you are the only one who could handle it." Elie spoke riding my cheeks of their tears.
"Your right, I am meant for this. I need to be strong for everyone, I need to be strong for you and for me. After all I am going to be queen..." I said standing up and fixing my dress.
"Let's go make it official." I said heading for the door.
"Let's go make me queen..."
