Chapter 3
"Ow!" I yelled as Daisy was tightening my bodice.
"Alright now for the dress and then the hair." She got my emerald green dress and I pretty much had to climb into it. I buttoned it up at the front slipped on my boots and ran down stairs. Into the dining room my mother and brother were sitting and eating. She looked up and down at me then looked blankly at my face.
"So, what have you been up to?" She questioned her eyes looking vicious starring me down even though I was standing up it was still quite frightening.
"I was mainly hanging around the house," I said as ordinary as I could. But she didn't look satisfied.
"Your mouth says one thing but your hair says another." She stated. My hair! I completely forgot, so close... "You were in the woods again weren't you?" I just stood there left her complaining that I am not elegant and not ladylike. My brother just sat there eating with a smirk on his face. I can't wait to wipe that grin off his face. My mother finally stopped and finally let me eat, chicken and vegetables freshly made yum! I dared not look at my mother in the eye or say a word. A couple of awkward minutes later Fernace decided to break the silence.
"So where's father?"
"Oh, he is organizing a visit from a Mr. Fotheros, Apparently he is also an amazing swimmer, they have lots of water sports and competitions where they Lord Fotheros!" She exclaimed. The crocodile king why would my father invite him? "He has a son; he loves the outdoors he wins every single time." She went on looking at me. I looked back down at my food my brother next me started laughing, I kicked leg and he bit his tongue. Then I started giggling.
