Chapter IV

We just arrived at the mansion after 1 hour of riding a carriage from one place to another place. As I see my mother, father, and my brother at the center of the door waiting for me, I greet them and hug them.

"Where did you go?"

"We are so worrisome for you, you didn't tell us you're going somewhere"

"Oh, I'm sorry mother, father, and brother for not telling you, I was just finding a place for my business. "

"Oh it's okay darling"

"So darling how was it?"

"Hmn?"

"Eh?! um... I couldn't find interesting those places"

"Oh my?!" my mother replied

"It's okay darling" my father spoke

"Yeah it's okay my little sister I'm sure you can find something you want," said my brother

"Yes, mother" My mother called a maid to escort me to my chamber to take a rest.

After we talk, I go to my chamber to take a rest, then I take a bath, wear my nightgown, then I lay down to my bed and recall everything that happens today and can't believe that we could not find our own interest in those places.

Next morning

"Hello m'lady, how was your sleep?"

"It was good" I yawn.

After I take my bath and dress up, I directly go to the dining hall to eat my breakfast with my family.

"Excuse me, baron and baroness, this is an invitation for you " the butler interfered.

"What is this? Count Viles?" My father spoke.

"This invitation came from the imperial palace. An invitation for a ball which is held by imperial palace Grande Ball"

"Oh so we are invited to this ball, I guess we are going to be dressed up so well since it is a grande ball after all"

"Oh and Childrens are also allowed even, still they haven't had their debut." said the butler Count Viles.

"Oh well then, it is, so let's find our cute little darling a dress "my mother clap her hand one time and her face was full of excitement.

"Oh, you're right honey!" My father agrees so excited.

"When will the ball starts?" My father asks.

"2 months and 3 weeks for now on"

"Oh, so it will be starting soon." My mother replied.

"Yes, it was said it is an advance invitation since it will be granted of all these years." said the butler Count Viles.

Count Viles is a friend of my father who was helped by my father during a war between the Croaze Imperial Country and Trapoise Imperial Country, I and my family were from Croaze Imperial Country. At that time everything was miserable and many were got killed and almost got killed and one of them was Count Viles but luckily my father counts Delkash save him and was honored by his loyalty and kindness. And yes, Count Viles and my father are knights before but they retired because they want to make a new career path for them.

"Oh so we have time to prepare," said my brother.

"Yes that's, Right "

After 2 months, everyone in my family prepared so much for this grande ball, they also buy me a new one and it is a very elegant dress from a famous boutique in the capital city. My brother work hard throughout these 2 months and got paid, He and my parents picked my dress for this ball. I'm going to describe this dress because it's too beautiful, Elegant as I wear it. It is a pink pastel color dress, every design has sparkle, flowers, and diamonds, its layer of cloth has different kinds of color of soft pink, the off-shoulder of this dress is made by silk it is so comfy to wear it and lastly, it has a cute ribbon pink with a corset on it, before you all concerns about my body, my corset is customized so it's very safe for me, and oh it has a pair headdress it looks like a string but has a combination of diamond and hearts, its color was soft pink and clear white.

It's been 2 months and we still haven't seen interested and wanting store to rent or buy and I haven't started my business yet.

3 weeks later

Today is the day that I'm going to Grande ball with my family. We ride our own carriage to the imperial palace where the grande ball was held. Everyone can enter except Commoners, commoners are different from us nobles, mostly commoners are slaves, got killed and a victims from us nobles because some of them nobles treated them so badly like they are animals, they don't see them as human but animals, their pride our so high because of their status.

We had arrived at the ball.

"Baron Delkash and his family are going to enter, "Said the announcer holding his paper roll.

The big door open as we walk in, everyone was so surprised because of our clothes and our genes?! Yes, we baron family has great genes, but is it too stupid to think that they are so surprised because of it?!

As everyone dances at the ball, I go to the garden to take the air for a moment because it's too crowded inside.

After 1 minute I hear a crying voice and it came from behind the bushes?

"Um.. hello anybody there?" The cry becomes quieter?

I go in the direction where the noises came from the bushes.

"Uhmm.. hi, a-are you okay? "It is a young boy wh ok has blonde hair, blue eyes and its skin looks perfect and it's almost he looks like a doll when he looks up to me while he's crying. Oh, he is sitting down and his knees bend to support his shoulder to rest to his knees.

"Are you okay?"

"Why are you here? Who are you?"

"Uh uh I just got here at the garden to take in air for a moment but then I heard you crying behind these bushes"

"Am I that noisy?" He looks down

"No, it's not that noisy"

"Oh he wipes his tears"

"What happens?"

"Nothing"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes"

"I don't think so"

"Why you don't think so?"

"Because you are crying so hard" then he cries again, I comfort him and try to let him stay calm and relax after 3 minutes he then open and tells what happen and why he is crying. After listening to him I advise him of his problems, and I never thought that we that become friends later on after talking for a while.
