# February_12th_Monday_2018 *
I woke up Monday morning in my enormous and gigantic be-d,
I yawned lightly and stretched my perfectly fit b©dy a bit.. Not
to br@g but I do have a perfectly fit b©dy,.. I sat properly on my
be-d and turned to my right to glare at my alarm, which didn’t
wake me up, “nice work Genevieve” I said to my alarm and
threw her in the waste bin, I do have a pretty awkward habit of
naming things, I got out my be-d and walked to the bathroom
to have my bath .. After that I put on my school uniform and
brushed my golden blonde hair down, I hurried out to the door
without my school bag and head downstairs,..
I live with my dad, mom and step mom, my dad he’s kind of
an unsatisfied person, after getting married to my mom, and
after my eight birthday, he brou-ght in Delia, which is my step
mom saying he wanted to get married to her, my grandpa
agreed but grandma wasn’t happy about it..
He later got married to Delia and now she and my mom have
becomes like the best of friends ever, I have a step sister
who’s Delia’s daughter and who’s eight years old , who’s
name’s emerald and who is very very polite
.
“break fast mi lady” our house cook Martha said placing a
plate of omelet on the table and smiled
“sure thing” I said and sat down, my dad c@m£ downstairs
wearing his Tuxedo as always, he’s a pretty business man,
always traveling from this county to that country, he doesn’t
rest
“good morning dad” I greeted and he sh0t me a glare, and I
corrected my self “sorry good morning father” I said and he
nodded, he prefers me using the term ‘father’ he said dad
sounds disrespectful
“that’s more like it, so I’m off wish me luck I’ll be back
tomorrow morning or maybe tonight,” he said and I nod.. He
st©pped like he wanted to stay somewhere but he just shook
his head negatively and walked away and I faced my food..
And sighed , after eating i called one of the maids cleaning the
floor to take my plate to the kitchen, I stood up and sighed
heavily,
“mi lady, this is your bag” I hear our Martha’s voice behind me
and I turned swiftly.. I took my backpack from her and said
“my dad’s gone now, you can call me Lia” I said and she
slowly nods
“yes miss Amelia” she said and I sighed, well I’m kind of used
to her over respective attitude..
I held my backpack firmly and was about to walk out of the
door when my mom approached me..
“honey, ” she called and I smiled and turned to her
“good morning mother” I greeted politely
“yeah good morning dear, did you see your father go to work
this morning?” she asks and I nod
“yeah.. I mean, yes it hasn’t been too long since he left” I said
and she moved closer
“he didn’t break the news right” she said
“what news? ” I asked
“uhmm never mind baby I’ll see you after school,” she said
and pushed me out the door and I wondered what was wrong,
I also left out one little detail my family c@m£ from a very long
line of royalty…. And that’s what made my dad to be living in
billions.. And I don’t really know how they work but I don’t care
actually..
as I closed the door behind me I saw my very best friend
Derrick Standing beside my driver Klaus, both of them were
waiting for me beside my car.. I wouldn’t call it my car since
I’ve never driven it though, but still it’s my car..
“hey princess” Derrick called and I gave him a small smile..
“good morning miss” Klaus greeted
“and to you too” I replied and he opened my car door and
derrick and I entered..
I’ve known Derrick since 5th grade and we’ve been friends
since then, close friends he’s actually the only one I know who
un-derstands me, who gets me he can be quite funny, but
annoying sometimes but that’s Derrick for you..
Klaus finally pu-ll-ed over and Derrick and I c@m£ out of the car,
“Klaus my man, see you after school” Derrick said and tapped
his shoulder but Klaus didn’t give him a reply,
We both walked in school together and as usual I heard
greetings from different places.. In school, not to br@g I’m
pretty popular at school, one I’m the School’s president and
two for my royalness I guess I got to my clas-s and so did
Derrick.. We are both in the same grade but not in the same
clas-s.. …
I got to my seat and placed my backpack on the desk, time to
start another day, I stood up and went to the back of the clas-s
to gr-ab my text book from my locker, as I opened the door of
my small locker someone bu-mped into me and pushed me
forward, I swiftly turned after gaining my balance and Amanda
Barcl@ywas standing there smiling devilishly
Amanda has been my rival since like forever she’s the school
vice president , she’s jealous because my dad is more
wealthier than hers and because I’m from a royal family..
Childish right?
She competes with me with like everything, people call us
twins though even though they know we’re enemies and still
not related, they say we both look kind of alike because we
both have the same blonde hair, green eyes, the same height
and we were both born on the same month but different d@t£,
what a stupid coincidence..
“oops I didn’t see you there” Amanda seethe with a sm-irk
“you never will” I said and took my book then closed my
locker door.. As I walked back to my seat I purposely stepped
on her,
“oww” I heard her say and I turned swiftly and smiled
“oh sorry dear, didn’t see you there” I said and walked away
and she just huffed and walked to. Her seat too which next to
an empty seat which was clearly right beside mine..
Everyone got re-ady for clas-s that morning as our clas-s teacher
walked In with someone beside him I didn’t get to see the
person’s face since I was too focus on my book..
“good morning students, we have another new student, plea-se
introduce your self young man” I hear Mrs Hilda our clas-s
teacher said..
“Uhm.. I’m Noah, Noah Clerk” the New student said and I
looked up to see this Noah of a guy, I smiled admiring his
pretty face and shyness, he gave Mrs Hilda a look that says
that’s-all Mrs Hilda nodded and said to “me”..
“Amelia dear, plea-se do care to show Noah around the school
during lunch time”
“yes ma’am” I Said and Noah smiled at me “take a seat” Mrs
Hilda said and walked out,
Noah walked to the empty seat in between me and Amanda
and said
“can I.. ” and gestured his hand toward the seat.. Before I
could reply Amanda said “of course you can” And then Gave
me an “i-won” look like I was fighting over anything, Noah sat
down and sighed and then moved his hair backwards..
“I’m Amanda” I hear Amanda said and he smiled at her and
shook her hands, I rolled my eyes and faced my book..
.
# BREAK_TIME
As everyone heard the bell they all stood up and I fixed my
chemistry note in my bag and tucked my hair behind my ears,
sighing calmly, just then Derrick bur-st In the clas-s and smiled
at me waving
“hey there princess” he called and walked up to me.. I stood
up and rolled my eyes
“you are so loud” I yanked and he laughed.. “oh forgive me
princess for being loud” he tea-sed and I rolled my eyes again,
he knows i hate being called princess ..
“come-on let’s go eat” I tell him and was about to walk away
when Noah said
“Uhm Amelia, ” I turned and he stood up.
“remember earlier, you told Mrs…Mrs.. Hilda you’d show me
around the school” he said and I suddenly remembered
“oh yeah I’m sorry plea-se come-on let’s go” I said and he
nodded
“but what about lunch” Derrick said while I sh0t him a glare
“lunch will have to wait Eric” I said and he sighed
“how about you guys go get Lunch and I’ll show Noah around
the school” amanda offered while I shook my head negatively
“no thank you, Noah let’s go” I said calmly and he walked up
to me, and we both head outside with Derrick too..
*
we introduced ourselves and I showed noah every single thing
he had to know about the school and he seemed perfectly
happy and fine about it but Derrick had to be annoying about it
“and lastly this is the school’s cafeteria, which have anykind of
food and dessert you want” I said with a small smile
“well thank you Amelia” Noah said nodding his head
“you’re welcome, it’s my job you know” I said
“your job?” he asked
“she’s the school’s president” Derrick quic-kly said and I rolled
my eyes at him..
“oh ” Noah breathed out
“yeah and Noah plea-se just call me Lia” I said and he smiled
and nods
Derrick pushed his brown hair backwards and said “so
princess I’m gonna be inside eating I’m starving when you’re
re-ady you’ll come join me” he said
“why do you call her princess anyway” Noah said scratching
his blond hair
“because she is one duh” Derrick backfired
“okay.. ” Noah said not getting a hint of anything and I smiled
at his confused state
“Lia’s great great grand uncle is James mark sapphiron”
Derrick said, okay Derrick is going way to far, I hate telling
people I’m from a royal family, Dang it..
“oh my, James mark sapphiron?? So wait wait you’re like a
princess now” Noah asks me
“no not really, James mark sapphiron was actually my great
great step uncle so we’re removing from the line of royalty” I
said and he nods and say
“okay whatever you say princess”
“Noah you too? ” I yanked and he laughed, such a sweet
laugh..
“come-on let’s go eat” Derick said and we all walked in the
cafeteria
.
# SCHOOL_CLOSED
Klaus drove Derrick and I home, but dropped Derrick In front
of his house before driving me in the estate ,
“miss” Klaus called
“what is it” I said picking at my f!ngers
“we have a problem” he said
“what is it” I asked
“there are cars parked in front of the mansion , so there’s no
where left for me to park” he said
What the heck ..
“it’s okay, just park somewhere here and we’ll trek to the
mansion” I said and he nods slightly and parked the car, and
we both c@m£ down
Who the heck parked a car in front of our mansion.. I thought
.
Getting to the mansion it wasn’t in only a car that was parked
but like hundreds, I’m just exaggerating, it was actually nine
cars, eight BMW’s and a white limousine at the front, I saw my
dad’s car too , I thought he’s coming back Tonight or
tomorrow morning what’s going on.. I said to my self as I
opened the door and walked in..
I saw unfamiliar faces and men in suits surrounding our hvge
couch..
“oh sweetie you’re home” my mom said and ran to hvg me
and everyone stood up, ap@rt from my family there was a
middle aged woman, an old woman, an old man, and a
woman who looks like she’s in her early 40’s
I greeted them all politely and the old lady Gave me a big, very
big heart warming smile which seemed kind of creepy..
“sit Down sweetie” Delia my step mom said and I politely did
and everyone sat Down too
“Amelia Elizabeth sapphiron mark” the old lady called my full
name staring at me and I replied her very politely and smiled..
“she’s a beauty” the woman in her early 40s said
“I know, we mustn’t waste any time” the old man said ..
“yes it’s true” my dad said giving me a look I didn’t un-derstand
“honey.. ” my mom said and I turned to her and she sighed
heavily and said
“you’re getting married”
Wait..
What? What? What?
WHAT??????!!!!!
“m.. Mmm… Marr.. married?” I repeated and my mom and
every other person nods..
Oh kill me..
EPISODE 2
Married?..
I’m getting married
I started to sweat unexpectedly and my mom took my hands
In hers and whispered In my ear, “that’s right, you’re getting
married sweetie I’m sorry I can’t do anything” …. I swallowed
my saliva and took a good look on each and everyone’s face
around me..
My grandma looked plea-sed, my dad looked happy my step
mom and my mom looked worried.. But held a fake smile..
That moment I just wished someone should tell me I’m
dreaming but no one did. ..
The old woman stood up carefully and smiled at me
“Amelia dear, you’re one beautiful girl your father’s right, you’re
beautiful polite and perfect, you’ll be perfect for Logan, you’re
getting married married to crown prince Logan brown kludge
he’ll be turning nineteen in the month June, oh I feel so happy
you’re perfect honey, we’ll be back tomorrow there’s alot to
do” the old woman said and the old man stood up and they
both walked away the middle aged man pushed a paper in
front of my dad and he signed in there and the rest of them
stood up and walked away,
Okay I’m alone with my family now someone should tell me
what the heck is going on..
I turned to my dad to give me an explanation and he sighed
and started
“Amelia, dear, I know it must be ha-rd for you, but.. But.. How
can I explain this…. Look dear as the family grows larger
everyday so does the royalty dies, I want you to get married to
Logan so we can continue to live in or live like royalties.. ”
“what? Da.. Father it’s like you’re selling me off” I said as my
breathing got ra-pid
“st©p saying nons-en-se Amelia, I’m not selling you off, if you
get married to Logan, we will all continue to live in wealth and
power and our royalties will never die” my dad seethe and I
angrily stood up..
“no.. Father I’m not getting married to anyone, I’m just
seventeen” I yanked
“and he’s just eighteen, in royal marriage, age doesn’t count
and you can’t say no to this, you’re getting married young lady
whether you like it or not” he ponjured and I sighed sadly..
I can’t do anything
I’m going to get married.. For the record I hate being born in a
royal family..
As I walked in my room I closed the door angrily and threw
my bag away sighing angrily.. I flew my self on my be-d and
screamed in my pillow…. I’m going crazy,.. I stared at the
ceiling not knowing what to do until I fell asleep
.
I woke up later feeling worn out, I just had the Most scariest
dream ever..
I can never get married at this age I laughed at the dream, and
stood up only to find out I’m still putting on my school
uniform. I crawled out of my be-d and re-moved my uniform
and slowly head to the shower..
As the cold water ran down my n-ked b©dy, I closed my eyes
and suddenly everything pla-yed back in my head, I suddenly
opened my eyes and held my breath, it wasn’ a dream I’m
actually getting married..
I turned on the shower and tied a towel around my b©dy
heading back to the room, my mom was sitting on my be-d
staring at the floor..
“hey sweetie” she called seeing me
“hey mom” I said sadly and slowly and sat Down beside her
“sweetie I know you must be thinking about this marriage stuff
and all, I know it must be ha-rd for you to even think that all
this can happen but have I ever told you that that’s how I got
married but mine, I was sixteen then” my mom said and I
turned to look at her..
“sixteen? It must have been so ha-rd for you then right?” I
asked but she shook her head negatively
“it wasn’t I was excited even, you know why, because I loved
him, I love your dad” she said and smiled
“well, you loved him because you knew him but I don’t even
know the douchebag I’m getting married to” I yanked
“watch you ton-gue honey!” my mom warned
“sorry, but who knows who Logan Is anyway” I yanked and
sighed heavily
“check the internet” my mom said and pat my back
“the internet!! No way, ” I rolled my eyes
“well he’s coming over tomorrow so you’ll get to see him in
person” my mom said and stood up. “I’m going to leave you
alone now” my mom said and walked out.. Oh kill me…
I changed into mufti and la-id on my be-d, I started to think
about all this, my life su-cks …
:
During dinner time we all ate silently with everyone staring at
me like I was going to die, I was the first to finish my dinner
and I quic-kly head upstairs..
That night I la-id on my be-d staring at the ceiling till I finally fell
asleep
.
# THE_NEXT_MORNING
I woke up and stretched a little bit, the idea of taking a shower
and going to school wasn’t welcomed in my head, so I just
la-id still On my be-d, I mean what else was I supposed to, I’m
just a cheesy teenage girl who was born in a royal family and
is about to get married to a boy she doesn’t know where else
she’s alre-ady starting to like a cute h0t dude in her clas-s,,,
such is life …
I heard a soft knock on my door but didn’t bother to answer it..
The knock bec@m£ thicker and louder but I didn’t answer,,
everyone should just Leave me alone.. The knock continued
but I just pretended not to hear it.. I heard a sigh and the door
cli-cked opened and Derrick walked in,
“seriously princess, morning silent treatment?” Derrick heaved
and sat on my be-d
“just get out” I gro-an ed while he shook his head negatively
“look princess, get out is a strong word,.. What’s wrong aren’t
you going to get re-ady for school” he asked while I shook my
head negatively..
“why?” he asked, and I sighed and sat up ..
“Derrick, have you ever felt like committing suicide before? ” I
asked and his jaw fell open
“Lia, are you okay or what, ” he asked and got closer to me
tou-ching my forehead, but I tap his hand away,
“I’m getting married Eric, I’m. Getting married” I yanked and
la-id angrily back on my be-d..
“married??” he asked his tone comes in high pitch
“yes” I gro-an ed
“how come?, to who? when?” he asked rhetorically
“turns out my dad still nee-ds power and royalty in his blood so
he decided I get married, and I don’t know who the hell I’m
getting married to, but i do know his name is Logan kludge” I
said and sighed bitterly
“wait you mean crown prince Logan brown kludge?” he asked
surprisingly
“well why am not surprised you know him” I said sarcastically
and rolled my eyes …
“if you want to see him just check the in….
“look Derrick don’t you think all this is crazy” I yanked
“not really” he shrugged
“because you’re not in my shoes that’s why” I said and got
down from the be-d..
“look Lia, you’re getting married to Logan, do you know how
many girls have died because of him, you’re lucky you know,
he’s nothing like Noah just so you know” Derrick seethe and I
quic-kly throw him a look
“who said anything about Noah” I ponjured
“come-on Lia, don’t lie to me I saw the way you stare at him,
you like him” he said and win-ked at me
“oh just shut up” I said and he rolled his eyes
“still won’t you go to school today?,” Derrick asked
“no.. ” I replied plainly and he shrugged
Just then my step-mom bur-st in and said “honey, you have to
get re-ady, he’s here” and then she left
“great” I said sarcastically while Derrick nudged me and
breathed out an “hmm… ”
I took my bath and wore my clothes why Derick was busy with
my phone, I didn’t know what he was doing though, he was
still with his school uniform, since I’m. Not going to school he
said his not going either.. He’s such a sweet friend always
there when I nee-d him..
I sat down on my be-d again and then la-id down but placing
my head on Derrick’s th!gh..
“life su-cks” I breathed out while Derrick rolled his eyes
“you should be thankful for life princess, don’t be selfish okay”
he said and pu-ll-ed my nose while I sl@pped his che-st..
“Amelia?!!” my mom voice trailed up to my room..
“ugh I guess they’re here” I said and stood up
“goodluck” Derrick said
“wait you’re not expecting me to go down there Alone you’re
coming with me” I said and held his hand and he had no
choice and he sighed and trailed behind me..
As I walked down the stairs with Derrick behind me, I sp©tted
everyone in the living room staring at me.. I breathed in and
out trying to control the nervousness taking over me..
Just then I sp©tted him and my jaw dropped open.. He’s..
He’s.. I can’t find my words, but I know I just saw an angel..
I’m getting married to him..
Oh my goodness…
