Gwen and Aurora arrived in the evening with no news about their parents. They found themselves to be lost. Gwen kept on ranting about what might have happened, while Aurora just kept to herself. She was busy thinking about every possibility. What could have happened and why. "Do you think it has something to do with the debt." I asked. "Possibly, but what could have happened. Could they have hurt them?""I don't know Gwen." Getting to the entrance, we saw some bags in front of the door. "Who do these belong too?" Gwen asked. We went in and saw Aunt Christiana with two bags and she dropped it on the ground. "Glad you're back. These are your bags, I need you two to leave my house." She said. "But, why? What did we do?" I asked in shock. "You girls are a threat to me. Your parents are owing people money right? They've run away, that's why we can't find them.""How did you know?" I asked. "Those people came to confront me and they told me all about it. I can't believe your parents

The next day; Aurora and her sister decided to search the village for their parents. They thoght they could find some clue that could help them. They first went to their parents shop, but as expected, no one was there. Then they searched other possible places, but they didn't find anything. "What should we do now?" Gwen asked."I don't know, we could just head back." They were approaching a sloppy path. On that same path, there was a woman who sold some coloured pieces of materials. The woman on seeing the two ladies thought she could persuade them to by an item. "Girls, would you perhaps be interested in buying some materials. They are very beautiful and I believe they will suite your taste." She said with a smile while batting her lashes. "Sorry, but we're not interested." Gwen told the woman. The smile on the woman's lips faded. But she kept on talking. "Are you sure, why don't you just take a look."I went over to the woman and took a look at the materials. It was obvious she

Miss Madeline was knitting a sweater when she heard a knock on her door. She wondered who it could be. She got up and went to open the door. There she saw her long time friend Martha."Martha what a suprise, please come in." She said sweetly. "Thank you Maddie, it's been a while." "Yes it has, have your sit." She went and brought some tea for the both of them. "How are things at the castle. "Terrible. It's even more worse than when the former king died." Martha said softly. "Yes, prince Edwin's death was tragic.""It indeed was, princess Ella didn't take the news well at all. She's actually just started getting over it.""It's not possible to get over it. This war as come with many losses." Said Miss Madeline."Some of the maids have already resigned because of it. They say that they prefer helping their family who really needs them. Most of their people have been displaced without having a place to live." Said Martha. "I understand. How are you coping with it?" "It's difficult.

It took at least fifteen minutes before they got to the gates of the palace. They rode in and Gwen was left in amazement. She had been here once, during the king's coronation but she didn't have time to marvel. She knew that she was only here as a maid but she was excited for some unknown reason.Meanwhile Aurora kept on fidgeting internally in her seat. For some reason unknown, to her she felt like her being here wouldn't turn out good for her. She thought she was just being paranoid because of everything that had happened. She turned to see her sister who was smiling wholeheartedly as she looked through the carriage's window. It finally stopped and Martha got down. The girls also came down but with their heads bowed. They treaded slowly behind Martha. Aurora stared at the mighty walls of the palace. There were two guards at the front entrance but they didn't go through this part, instead they headed to the back to get in.As they walked through the halls, Aurora saw some maids clean

The next day;So apparently, being a personal maid for the royal members includes waking up early to get them prepared for the day. Lisa and I got ready and we headed to Queen mother's chambers. Lisa prepared the bath while I was to pick out her clothes. I found myslef at crossroads. I didn't know anything about dressing up. 'How will I choose her clothes now?' I decided to choose a random dress and shoes I thought would fit. It took about an hour to get her ready and I realised she wasn't that picky. I put all of these in mind.When I was done, I went to princess Ella's room. I knocked on her door but she didn't answer. "Princess Ella, it's me." I knocked a few more times until she responded. "Come in.""Good morning princess Ella." I said with a bow.She yawned. "Good morning Aurora." I almost laughed when I saw her. Her hair was a total mess and so was her bed."I'm here to get you ready. Shall I prepare your bath?"She gave a confused look. "Ok, but do you know how to?""I believe
