21 Welcome to Earth

The sun was shining bright, the wind was not cool. The air did not feel fresh but had dust and pollution. The were constant sound of vehicles and motors. It was hot. And Fleur landed.

"Arghh..." her body hurt. She was hanging on a tree in some place. She tried to get down. But unfortunately the branch broke and she fell on the ground landing with a loud thud. "Ow.." her arms and knees hurt. But she spun from the ground and looked at her dress. "Oh my god this is an expensive dress, ma will kill me if something happens," she said out loud and checked it it was dirty or torn somewhere. "Oh right," she remembered. "I don't have home or family around me any longer," it hurt a little thinking that way. Tears whelming her eyes unknowingly.

"Where should I start?" Fleur thought. Looking around the place she has arrived at. She tried using her powers but got angry instead about how her father had sealed her powers before she left the hell since she couldn't do anything now except use her own hands and energy.

Fleur decided to find a place to live in the place she has arrived at. "Oh thank god no one saw me hanging down the tree," she thought. There were huge buildings, tall towers, lots of vehicles and so much varieties of food she craved to taste instantly.

Fleur walked down the grey pavements looking through the window of every shop she passed by. Some smelled so good as she walked past the hotels and pastry shops. She observed the kind of clothes people were wearing and compared them with her heavy black gown. As she walked on the road, everybody was noticing her and giving her looks. Some stared at her. Some even laughed. She later understood how ridiculous she must be looking among the humans right now. She saw a convenient store and took a seat outside their place. Sitting on a chair under the umbrella's shade. She leaned her head on the table. She let out a sigh and got up and she screamed suddenly. Somebody was looking at her, sitting opposite her.

"What?" Fleur asked the girl sitting in front of her.

"Nothing, I am just resting," she said looking weirdly at Fleur.

"Okay, rest," Fluer said and looked away.

"You look upset, is everything okay?" the girl aske her out of concern. She had a sweet voice like a little girl and long blonde hair. She was wearing a shirt, had chocolate brown eyes and chubby cheeks. She was wearing a uniform that had something written on it. Fleur looked at her for a second before she spoke to her again.

"No it's not," she said to the girl.

"Relax, it's alright, I get you, I work here in this department store, part time. I am studying in a college. What are you doing?" the girl said.

"Am not doing anything," Fleur told her.

"Did you run away from work? Are you an actress? you look like a queen who ran away from the palace," The girl teased her. Little did she know the truth.

Fleur was surprised. Her eyes grew wide. "How did you know?" Fleur asked her. For a moment Fleur felt there is hope.

"What?" the girl asked her, looking super shocked. She was only kidding.

"You're right, I did run away from home, but am not the queen, am just the crown princess, am send here to live as a part of my punishment for going against my mother and the whole human clan," Fleur told the girl. The girl looked in bewilderment and then laughed at her for sometime. She could not stop at all. Meanwhile Fleur sat there watching her, her arms folded until she stopped laughing. Fleur felt offended. "What is there to laugh in this? Does my life sound funny to you mortal?"

" What ? Mortal ? No No," the girl said. "Am Arya, what's your name ?" Arya asked her and extended her arms.

"Fleur," Fleur introduced herself and shook hands with Arya. "Nice to meet you," Arya got up from her chair.

"Have you had lunch? it's time for lunch, am on break," Arya said. "Let's go,"

"I haven't had anything since I left home yesterday," Fleur told her.

"Good heavens," Arya said. "Come with me then," she invited Fleur to follow her. Fleur got up and followed Arya to wherever she went. "My mother runs this department store, I help her during my weekends, I have money let's go get some food, I will treat you," She said and they stepped out of the store. Fluer's stomach was already growling with hunger. Arya took her to a nearby restaurant that was selling pizzas. "Trust me, this outlet sells the best pizza in the town, I always come here," Arya informed Fleur who had no idea what pizza is like. Fleur looked around the shop carefully and a card that was lying in front of her. She felt thankful for at least how she knows to read. She read through the menu and looked at pictures straight to them. While Arya ordered for them.

"What do you want?"

"Anything would do, I don't know what this is, " Fleur informed her.

"You don't know pizzas?" Arya was surprised again.

"I don't know anything, " Fleur said and looked at Arya helplessly. Arya for a moment stood still.
