{Your Point Of Veiw} "Wow", I say in awe as we walk into the palace. "This place is enormous", I gasp. "It doesn't seem too big to me considering I only ever visit three or four rooms", Camila shrugs. "You don't explore this place," I ask. "Mm no, I would rather explore a book", Camila giggles. "I wish I could read," I sigh. "You can't read," she asks. I blush in embarrassment and shake my head no. "Why are you blushing, you shouldn't be embarrassed by that. Why don't you let me teach you," Camila smiles. "That would be the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me," I say. "Well then, it's done," she shakes my hand and I giggle. We walk up a flight of stairs and she takes me into her bedroom. "This seems like you", I say. "What do you mean by that", Camila chuckles. "It's so... vibrant.. and happy," I say. "Shouldn't it be," Camila asks. "If you believe in those things, I don't see why not," I say. "And you don't believe in happiness," Camila raises her eyebrows in disbelief. "Not at all. I have never had a 'Happy' life," I explain. "How so," Camila asks. "Since a was little I have done nothing except work for my parents! Farming, walking and selling, that's all," I sigh. "I wish I could've done those things! I have been stuck in the creepy palace for sixteen years," Camila says. "Well maybe we both aren't so happy," I smile sadly. "Or maybe you just need a different perspective," she smirks. I quirk my eyebrow at her. "Ally," she calls out. "Coming darling," a hear a woman's voice say. "Yes, Cam- Ahh," she squeals when she sees me, and places her hand over her chest. "Are you okay," Camila asks as she walks over to place her hand on Ally's shoulder. "Fine dear, I just wasn't expecting company." "I apologize, I had no intentions of startling you," I say. "Oh its fine, no need to apologize," she smiles warmly. "Y/n this is Ally, my fa- my godmother," Camila says. "Ally this is my new friend", Camila finishes introducing us. "Any friend of Camila's is a friend of mine," Ally pulls me into a hug. I smile at her and she does the same. "So Ally, I need your help with giving Y/n a new look", Camila says excitedly. "Sounds fun," Ally cheers. "I will be right back," she smirks. A few minutes later she comes back holding two arm-fulls of clothes, making my eyes widen. "Oh god," I mumble. ~~~~~ "I really like that on you," Camila says.  "It suits you," Ally agrees. "You think so," I ask looking into a mirror. "Absolutely, you look stunning," Camila says before biting her lip. Just then there is a knock on the door. Camila opens it and steps outside briefly before walking back in. "Camila, I'm going to prepare for your lessons," Ally says. "Okay", Camila smiles brightly. "It was loving meeting you Y/n," she says. "The pleasure was all mine," I reply. Ally then leaves, so now its only Camila and I. "Here you go," Camila hands me a bag of cold. "CAMILA WHAT IS THIS," I ask in shock. "It's your profit from today", she giggles. "We don't even make this in two months," I say. "I wanted to give you something special, for your family." "I can't take this from you," I say. "Its nothing, please, take it," She says. Even though I really don't want to take from her, I feel like she isn't going to allow me to say no. I sigh and put it in my pocket. "Thank you", I say genuinely. "You're more than welcome," she giggles. "Buy something nice for your Romeo," she suggests. I gasp and look out the window and find the sun setting. "I have to go", I say as I gather my things. "Wait, will I see you again," Camila asks sadly. "We will meet again, you have my word," I say before rushing out the door. I run through the woods to get back to my home before dark. I walk in and find Romeo sitting by the fire warming his hands. "You're late", he says. I stayed late to make a few extra sales, I lie. "I already made dinner," he sighs. I walk into our small kitchen area and find a loave of bread. I break off a piece and it melts in my mouth. I feel bad, he worked all day while I enjoyed the day off at the palace. "Hey Romeo", I say making him look at me. "Where did you get new clothes? If you spent mama and papas money they will kill us! What did you do," he asks scared. "Calm down, I did nothing wrong", I say. "But, tomorrow I want to take you somewhere special," I smile. "Special? Where are we going," he asks curiously. "Somewhere that will make you happy", I say. "I thought you don't believe in that", he says confused. "I don't! I just... have a new perspective", I say.
