nola
Palms sweating. Hands clammy. Nola was crying from inside out. Yet no emotion showed in her face. So dissociated she was from the rest of the world. She didn’t realize the many people crowding to get a first glimpse of her. Why was she so scared? After all she had already knew her fate.
A rock julted the the golden laced carriage removing her from her thoungts. A simple look out the window turned into a longing look for comfort but it never came.He’s face never showed. she wondered what he was doing right now? Was he watching in the crowds of people? Was he thinking of her?
Nola wanted to snap out of it. She couldn’t be thinking of him right now. Not when the whole kingdom was thinking about her. They all knew. She knew why everyone was here. For it had be planned since her birth. Her desity was hes and hes hers.
The crowed giggled and cheered. Some looked to have already celebrated. If she didn’t already know about the proposal. The crowed would have given it away. Though her mother already did that for them. Making sure she knew what was expected of her since she could understand words. ‘Nola, when you are older you will be a beautiful princess. The kingdoms princesses. Alexander princesses.”
Alexander she thought. But no emotion came not even sadness. she was empty when thinking about him.
The carraige came to a stop.She peered out of the glass window behind the carriage cutains. The crowed had made a moon shape around the carrige. Trappinge her and alexander. Uconciously she locked the carriage doors. It wasnt meant to be him.
