"Your highness, how did it go?" her assistant asked as soon as she stepped out with a gentle smile.
"If you have included an interview to my schedule, I want it cancelled immediately," she replied her assistant before continuing down the corridor.
Her assistant immediately took the order without asking any question since she was fully aware that the princess was in a foul mood.
She wondered what happened in the office with the lecturer and she felt a strong urge to go to the woman and ask her what she said to the princess as well as warn her not to offend the princess again.
She could only die within due to curiosity without enough courage to ask her unhappy boss.
She went to the beautiful garden library to read before time for her lectures for a time of peace without her guards and her assistant.
She closed her eyes and inhaled the beautiful scent of the flowers around.
This was definitely not a fun place or a place of relaxation for anyone who is allergic to pollen or hates flowers but for someone like her, it was the perfect place to inhale some beautiful scents and forget the troubles causing chaos on her mind.
She wore her ear pods and closed her eyes forgetting about the book on the table.
She chose the rose section which used to be occupied half of the time except now that most of the students are yet to arrive or busy with morning school works like lectures and others and she was the only person around.
Her time of peace lasted until she felt a foreign presence and she opened her eyes and looked around.
She did not see anyone and she closed her eyes again concluding that she was only being paranoid.
The place had very good natural lighting from the transparent roof and she frowned when she felt a shadow cast on her face.
She opened her eyes and met the black eyes of her sister, Anna. She sat up and smiled at her as she wondered what her guards were doing that they allowed this girl in without informing her.
"Good morning. We have not seen each other for a while now," Rose told the girl who was glaring at her like she stole her last piece of meat although that could not even be a reason for such a glare while they lived together.
"Yeah, right and I guess within such a short period of time, you have learnt a lot of tricks that makes me baffled and unable to recognize you," Anna said calmly but with a voice that carried enough spite to tell a listener that she was definitely not there for anything good.
"Why don't you sit down?" Rose asked in a calm welcoming tone hoping that makes Anna leave.
"Hmmph," Anna complained but she still sat down on the seat across the table.
"How have you been doing?" Rose asked warmly as she learned slightly forward.
"Hmmmph," Anna said while shrugging her shoulder.
She smiled softly. "Should I ask my assistant to get us both a cup of coffee each?" she asked waiting for Anna to leave because she could see no warmth in the girl's black eyes.
"No, I am okay," she replied sharply.
"I asked you about your well being but you obviously don't want to give me an answer," she told her seriously.
"You should not have time to worry about my well being when you are not doing well yourself."
Rose laughed at that. "What makes you think I am not doing good?" she asked although the question she had was why does she suddenly care.
"I need to tell you something. You might not be my sister anymore but a distant cousin but that does not mean we aren't connected.
"We did a lot of things together and uploaded a few on the internet after your competition so people will never stop to connect us together."
"Do you want me to have them remove every single trace from the internet?"
"No," Anna replied shaking her head. "That is not possible after all you told them in that interview that I was your muse. How do you want to clean that up?"
"I am sorry that I did that," Rose apologized since she had no idea what the girl wanted from her by telling her that.
"Now my point is that the fact that you were once my sister might affect the relationship between me and the first older friend I have gotten.
"She is fun to hang out with. She is nice but I don't think I can keep hanging around her because you stole her fiancé," Anna narrated.
"I did what?!" Meeting her sister's gaze, she asked coldly.
"You knew he did not like you because he was in a relationship with someone else but you did it nonetheless. You seduced him!"
"No, I did not!" Rose replied firmly. "I did not steal anyone's fiancé, okay? And even if I did, you alone must know that I have liked him right from the beginning and he was not in a relationship that time so stop making things up."
"I am not making things up. You liked him, I knew that for all these while but he did not like you too."
"That does not mean he was in a relationship with this friend of yours and I see no reason why I should have an obligation to give you an explanation and listen to your orders," Rose told her as she began to arrange her things to leave.
"The fact that you're a princess does not give you the right to take someone's man. That simply makes you worse than a whore," Anna spat in obvious disdain and disgust.
Rose was unwilling to listen anymore as she carries her bag and the book she was read when she stood up.
"You don't have the right to call me a whore, you don't," Rose warned her with a deadly glare.
"I am not afraid of you or what you think you could do with your identity as the princess."
