Why Vater?

"Go now you have done a lot for today" says Garfil .... and gives me that money ...

I thank you and get up brush my disheveled dress and put on my cape.

Mother father left me a few days ago ... why I do not know that.

I'm going out ... direction market street ... I'll buy some fruit with my earnings ...

The streets look great .... A woman hangs her wet clothes to dry many children play on the streets .... I go on and see that some people in the bakery room buy bread .... yes this baker has great bread ....

I greet friendly people.

I got 10 euros ... for 6 hours of work .... it is little but I am very satisfied with what I got ....

The work as a tailor makes me very happy so I like to do it .... but I also like dancing ...

Dancing makes me feel free as a peder .... then all the worries are gone ....

I already see the markets ....

I'm worried ... is my parents well ... even though they left me alone here ... anyway they are my parents ....

Well, I hope they are fine.

I just wanted to stand for the apple but then .... rode many horses towards me ..... they are the guards of the kingdom .... all verbäugen and I knixe.

"Alice Kandell ... they come with us because of orders of the king" says the one seriously .... why?

We ride to the kingdom.

What's happening ?

Did I do something?

It looks so beautiful .... that kingdom is so great .... just beautiful .... but I get a nasty stomach feeling.

The guard takes my arm and leads me in .... everything is set up so noble ... definitely 100% gold ....

These are the most expensive things I could never afford in my life ... everything is so clean ... it shines so nicely here .....

But I should get ready.

Suddenly the guard pushes me into a big hall .... my eyes are lowered down ....

I'm watching and the king is sitting there ....!

"Do you know what your father did?" Asks The King ....

"No, Your Majesty ..." I say softly and I think father did something bad ... maybe mother and father are gone because of that!

"Your father has sent valuable information to our enemy country," the king says sternly and a little aloud ....

"You will pay for it" he says ....

"Behead them" says the king behind ... and a fear comes over me ...

I can not say anything so I get up and go to the waking ones myself ..

It is something to wonder that I was ready to die because of my parents but I can not break even the other debt!

The 2 guards come to me take my arm and wanted to get out but he stopped us ... "wait" says the prince.

"Father she could work for us ... it's not her fault that her father did something like that .... and if you want her to pay then she should work as a dinstem here" says the prince .. he rescues me or misunderstand me.

"Girl what can you ask" The prince .... "Dancing and sewing" I say and look down .... "Father that's something you can use well ... dancing for the entertainment of our guests .. .. sew our clothes ... "says the prince .... I do not dare to see the two up ...

"Oke .... you'll start tomorrow," says The King ..

"Thank you, Your Majesty," I say, watching the prince look at me, "thank you for letting me live," I say to him ... "I just do what is understandable," he says, then breaks his gaze from...

I'm brought out ..... and then had to cry ....

Why father?

Father, why did he do that?

I am hurt but also very relieved that I could stay alive ... I could already be dead now but no I have been allowed to keep my life .... I am very happy ...

But it offends me so much about my family .... why?

If something like that happened then you should take me with you!

I'm crying out and just want to go home ....!

I looked at the floor and am very sad ...!

But then I riche burnt .... and when I looked up then I see how my house is burned down by the guards ....

I quickly ran to one of the guards .... "please stop that, please gracious sir," I say crying overflowing tears .... "no it's an order of the king ...." says the guard and takes off his helmet. ... he looks me in the eye and I realize that he has compassion with me ....

"I have no staying please stop" I say.

"Men there was enough fire laid as walk" and so these men rode away ...

I see how house burns and I fall on my knees.

And grieve that I have because of my father's mistakes no more roof over the head more and was left in the prick.

It's a big bluff.

Nobody comes to help me, only they know now all what my father has done for a mistake.

Where should I find only one place now?

My savings were everything in the house.

And what I just do with me do that is only 10 €!

I get up and think: maybe my best friend can pick me up!

I run away and I am very embarrassed ... people are staring at me ....!

We are a big village .... but who is taken from the kingdom ... that face and the actions you do not forget so fast again ....

In the worst case, something bad can happen to me when villagers see me as a threat!

When I see that the way has an end and only one staircase is available ... I also see the front door.

I very much hope that I can stay with her ...

I knock ... for safety I knock twice on the door.

And then comes the face of a familiar person.

"What are you doing here ... are you crying?" She asks and closes the door behind her .... I hug her and we stay like that for a moment ....

"Jessi I have no staying ... the guards burned my house .... where should I go now?" I ask her desperately ....

"Come on in for a while ..." she says .... "Jess who can not get in" says the little brother of Jessi.

"Now wait a minute" she says and I sit down ...

"Here drink .... eat .... money I can only give you 100 €" she says .. "no wait I want that money not ...." I say to her "we are friends best friends. ... just take it .... "she says ..." no .... I just need a place to stay .... do you know someone I can stay with "I ask ...." yes but you tell me everything that happened to the king "says Jessi ... I nod ....

"Okay, but you have to go to the other half of the village ....." she says .... "no, all would then," I say anxiously .... "you're not a witch because of your bright violet eyes," she says. ..

I have bright violet eyes ... different from the others .... many thought in the village I was a witch ... or something ... but I'm not.

My parents have brown eyes but I have these eyes .... it's always hard to meet new people ... because they think a lot of morons about me because of my eyes and then because of my golden hair.

I am also glad that the king has not seen my eyes .... only the prince .... not that he killed me then ...

"Look at me .... this man to whom I send you .... he is familiar a childhood friend ..... he can also protect you since he is also guard in the kingdom .... and I think he will take you for a few weeks .... he is also wealthy, "she says.

"Okay ... it's not that he has money .... I just do not want to fall to the last one" I say ..... "you will not ... I'll order you a carriage" she says .. ... Jessie her dad works as a cook in the kingdom .... and Jessie's mother is a teacher and Jessie herself is a trained seamstress .... but I'm still getting known ... my dad is a cheater and my mother as well .... both have screwed up the reputation as parents ..... I think they thought since I'm 18 years now they can leave me alone here .... that is so cold violently.

I hug Jessie one last time .... "I'll come to visit you ..... always show this attachment when you go out ...." she says .... it covers my face ... and so on You can not see my eyes like that.

I sit in the carriage and am curious .....

In between, I'm fine.

We ride over the bridge .... the other half of the village ....

It's already dark ...

Many rascals are outside .... that scares me ....

We stop .... "Madame, we are here" says the driver ...

I thank you and that house is great .... Jessie was right he is wealthy ...

I walk slowly ... to the door.

I knock on ..... and a light goes on in the house .... what I can see from the windows.

The door is opened ... I look down ....

I guess he is 2 or at least 4 heads taller than me .... so 1.97 m.

"Ehh, pardon me for disturbing her .... Jessie Willson sent me ..." I say.
