Making a Friend

This was the day my life changed forever, and I was just about to find out how.

Panic filled my heart as cabin's pulled by elegant horses pulled up to each house asking for their one lady, My cabin was pulled by two beautiful black horses and was driven by a man with brown hair ties in a man bun, hazel eyes and tan skin. The man got out with a pleasing smile and spoke with a voice that you could tell was a males, but was close to a females. He bowed. "Hello, I'm assuming your the lovely lady I will be helping today" I curtsied "Yes sir, That would be me." "Great!" he replied all of a sudden he seemed excited he opened the cabin door for me and held out his hand to help me in I gave him a small nod and a smile and took his hand, he gentle helped me get into the cabin, closed the door, and got back into his spot. "What's your name?" I asked politely "Carson, ma'am" He replied to be, his personality was so cute and soft, it went with his voice perfectly and his looks. "I'm Alice" I smiled he's not allowed to ask questions or make talk on his own. I wanted to know more about him, but it may make me look bad at the ball, communicating with a simple driver. ...It was silent for awhile "Please don't tell anyone that I'm talking to you, you seem like a nice lady" he said, he sounded a little scared but calm at the same time. "I won't, I promise." I laughed a little to reassure him "Your different than most people I have driven, there usually quite and harsh." he said quitely "Oh? is it harsh for all drivers?" I asked "Well depends, most of the drivers are rude themselves. There's only a few drivers that are actually kind." I felt sorry for him, I knew that he got paid little and slept in a bunker under the castle with the other hundreds of drivers, next to the drivers bunker it was the maids. "Well, I'm lucky I got you then." I smiled I truly was greatful I got such a kind driver "Would you like to be friends?" I asked. he froze for a second then replied "I cannot have any relationships with the people I work with, and work for, right now I work for you." he sounded a little disappointed while saying that, and I was too. "Well, If I get chosen I'll change that." we turned into the castle drive way, it was quite for the rest of the ride. I always had difficulties identifying my emotions, but I was good at understanding others. I could see a scar on his neck that seemed as if it went down to his back, he gets whipped.. I felt sorry for him at the same time it made me feel even more determined to help him, even if I don't get chosen. I had forgotten the fact If I don't get chosen, I'll be on the streets. He parked bringing me to reality, I wached him get down and open my door "We are here my lady' " He held his hand out, I grabbed it and he pulled me out. "Thank you for your services." I smiled, he nodded. Then he left..

I stared at the castle and sighed, but I was excited? I think, I'm not sure what I felt. It was huge, it looked like I was an ant looking at a 6'9 human.

I prepared to go in, well that's all I have to write today my husband is calling me. See you next time diary. love, Alice.
