"It's too..... Grand"

"Nonsense, it looks fine"

"I agree but I supposed something like this is.. not suitable to Seraphina's style"

"I think it looks great!....but Sera does look a little....sparkly.....too sparkly even."

"very well then, bring in the other dress"

A maid pulled me back to the dressing room, despite my protest and unwillingness, it was the Empress order and therefore must bs respected.

You might be asking? What's happening?For me to answer that question, I'll have to take you back this early morning.

I sighed in satisfaction, holding my coffee mug with my hand, I inhaled in the beauty of the day..... My rest day, my day where I don't have to see any royal faces, my day all to myself.

Sitting on my porch while watching the sun raise higher in the sky, the usual workers got out of their houses and greetings me with a smile.

The usual roses arrived earlier than expected, probably because Leo knows I get up early on my rest days, usually the two of us will sit on my porch
