The Next Day;
Peachy is prepared with her flyers and posters, this time she needs to inspect the City again, she had a simple dress on, her pink hair tied in a ponytail.
She also carried a rucksack with her to hold the flyers and posters, Penzilvana arrived with a smile.
"Are you ready?"
"YES!"
"Alright, let's go"
The two exited the Palace and went to the waiting carriage, they went inside, and the coachman closes the door for them.
"Let me see"
"Promise me you won't laugh?"
"Yes"
Penzilvana readied herself when she promised the Princess gives her the rucksack, and she opens it and looks at the homemade flyers.
"..."
"How is it?"
She inhaled and exhaled, she then shows it holding her laughter.
"Peachy"
"YES?!"
Peachy's face is brimming with positivity, Penzilvana stared at the Princess face and coughed the laughter away.
"Why is their different colours on it?"
"So that everyone can see it?"
"What is this thing in the center? This strange drawing"
"That is so rude, that's a portrait of a man!"
Penzilvana placed the flyers inside the bag and pulled out a handkerchief, she spreads the kerchief and covered her face with it.
She started silently laughing her shoulders violently shaking, Peachy looked concerned for Penzilvana.
When Penzilvana was finished, she took the kerchief off of her face, she was flushed.
"Are you okay?"
"Never better" she suppressed a laugh
"...You laughed"
"NO! NO! I did not!"
"I know it looks terrible"
"Since you are well aware, then I will tell you the truth..." Princess Peachy braced herself "Yes, it's terrible, it's like your past self returned, your little self"
"I can never improve on this"
"Since this is all we have, let's hope people take this seriously"
"They will at least look at it"
'If they look at it without vandalizing it then that will be a surprise, else this will be labelled as a vandalism in the City walls'
Penzilvana looked at the poster, and she burst out laughing, she couldn't contain it any more.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, THIS IS WORSE THAN THE FLYERS!"
Peachy's face flush in embarrassment, tears already forming from the side of her eyes.
"Stop it!"
"Sorry" Penzilvana wheezed, the Princess started crying because of this.
The coachman at the front driving the carriage felt like he should be concerned by the loud noises of laughter and the Princess cries.
"I'm sorry, Peachy please stop crying"
"You said you wouldn't laugh!"
"Yes, Yes, I know, now please stop, I'm sorry"
The coachman minded his business, he was at eased when the noise calmed down.
"Next time, I'll supervise you when you do this again, but now this will have to do"
They arrived at the Veritus City at the Amaryllis Park, the carriage is parked in front of the tea shop, they start making their rounds and putting up the flyers and posters.
Peachy greets the citizens of the Kingdom, the people of Veritus are warmer towards Peachy than the Queen.
Some citizens give her gifts, she accepts them, but she knows all too well that she shouldn't open the gifts so hastily.
Flowers are alright though, she can carry it around Penzilvana knows flowers all too well, if there is a poisonous one she would just take the flowers away from Peachy.
"Princess Peachy! How are you?"
"I am alright, thank you for asking, how are you Lady Irene?"
"Same as you, by the way, I haven't seen this beautiful Lady before, may I know who you are?"
"I am the royal families close friend, please don't mind me, I am just escorting Peachy here on her rounds in inspecting the City"
"I see, I shouldn't hold you up too long, please take care"
"That was the first time someone asked and talked to you, Penzilvana"
"I don't usually talk to humans except for the people around the Palace, when she talked to me, I am just being polite"
"You are a bit intimidating, Penzilvana maybe my sister is rubbing off on you"
"That's impossible, I just have preferences on whom I would want to talk to"
"Well, since we are almost done with our rounds why don't we have a short rest?"
"At the Amaryllis tea shop?"
"Yes"
Princess Peachy and Penzilvana entered the tea shop and sat near the window, a waiter went towards them and took their order.
"What can I get for you?"
"Amaryllis tea for me"
"Chamomile tea for me"
"Anything else?"
"Is there anything special on your menu today?"
"We have blueberry cheesecake and Chocolate fudge cake on discount today"
"Hmm, what would you want?" Penzilvana turned to Peachy
"Blueberry Cheesecake"
"Do you guys sell plain bread?"
"Yes"
"Alright" Penzilvana looked at his nameplate "Nick, thank you that's all"
"Let me repeat the order so that we are clear about it. One Amaryllis tea, One Chamomile tea, One Blueberry Cheesecake and One plain bread"
"Yes"
"Please wait for a few minutes"
"Penzilvana?"
"Hm?"
"What happens if we fail this?"
"We won't"
"Shouldn't we have a plan B?"
"Actually-" Penzilvana paused thinking "You're correct, we need a plan B"
"What will our next plan be?"
"Let's relax and think for a moment, so we could come up with one"
"Okay"
Their beverages and dessert arrived, and they started eating, they discuss plans, but it's not really a proper and solid one.
"Since I've been drinking Amaryllis Tea, for some time now, I feel like this courses through my blood already"
"Isn't flower essence coursing through your body?"
"Yes, but part of it is Amaryllis Tea now"
Peachy laughed, she notices the plain bread that Penzilvana is eating, she then mentions it.
"Why do you eat plain bread when having Amaryllis Tea?"
"This is already sweet, too much sweetness rots the teeth and body, that's why you need to be careful eating and drinking too many sweets Peachy, maybe one day you'd wake up your flesh is suddenly rotting"
"EHEM!"
One of the patrons that was enjoying their tea and cake glared at Penzilvana's words, Penzilvana gave a mischievous laugh at her.
"Oops"
The patron looks away minding her business once again, while Penzilvana was occupied with the person that scold her, Princess Peachy was distracted looking outside.
She abruptly stands up and exited the tea shop, Penzilvana followed but before that she left money on the table.
"PEACHY! WHERE ARE YOU GOING?!"
"There's a man collapsed at an alley"
"Seriously?!"
Peachy goes towards the man, he then asks if he was alright in which he groans 'food'.
"Let's help him"
"He is a run away slave"
"We can use him!"
Penzilvana gave a look of disbelief at the Princess, she couldn't believe that the innocent Princess would say such a thing.
"Are you Peachy?"
"Let's get him food, help me"
Penzilvana cast a spell on him so that his smell doesn't grab on their clothes, he cast another so that his smell doesn't waft through the air.
They drag him inside the Tea Shop, and let him eat, he was like a savage beast when he ate, they watch him while he eats everything clean.
"Uh..."
"Yes, more food"
Nick the waiter didn't even complete his sentence when Penzilvana answered, Nick quickly got food and served it to them again.
"Um, hello!"
"Peachy called out"
"!!!"
The man suddenly stood up and kneeled in front of them his head touching the ground.
"DUDE! DON'T DO THAT"
"I AM IN DEBT TO THE BOTH OF YOU! PLEASE USE ME AS YOU WISH!"
"Shhhhh!"
Penzilvana shushed him, grabbed his arm and sat him again.
"Stop that! We are in a public place, and shush your voice!"
"You are now my masters, what shall I do for you?"
"Calm down Penzilvana, first what is your name?"
"I have no name..."
"Nothing to see here people!"
Penzilvana waved to the people dismissing their attention, they turn their attention away from them.
"What was your last name that you remember?"
"You are my masters, you should be naming me...!"
"I want you to name yourself, now, what is your name?"
"Zero"
"There we go, I am Princess Peachy sister of the Queen and this is Penzilvana the family close friend"
"Your name is really Zero? Are you sure with your name?"
"Yes master"
"I'm not your master dude"
"Now that we are introduced we want you to become a suitor for my sister"
"T-The Queen-"
"Shhhh, Shut up, lower your voice"
"My apologise, Master"
"Stop calling me that!"
"My apologise again"
"Penzilvana calm down, so what do you say? We will compensate you, and you can temporarily live in the Palace, you can eat three times a day, and your clothes are also free"
"I-I WILL ACCEPT!"
"Remember we are not your masters, my sister is also not your master, you will be a suitor to her, so be formal and be romantic towards her"
"Peachy...are you sure about this?"
"This will be Plan B! Look at him he is also good looking, with a bit of grooming he will look like a proper person, I also don't want to return empty-handed...he is a reassurance if no one is interested"
"...Alright"
'I need to have a background check on this man later' Penzilvana thought
