Chapter 14 - She wants to prove to her parents that they don't know her at all

Back at Hohenzollern Castle, Belle Rose allowed Mia, Cora, Madison, Luna, Aria and Abigail to change the bandage every two hours. Prince Willem knew that Belle Rose was staying with him after she had recovered from the injury that Luke gave her, and she wanted to prove to her parents that they didn't know her at all and how on earth is she going to get back home. Prince Willem went to see Belle Rose, and he helped her sit up in bed. Belle Rose knew that she had to take things easy before she did anything else, and Prince Willem brought a chair over to the bed to sit down as he asked.

"How are you feeling, and did you sleep well?" Belle Rose nodded her head, and she replied. "I am still in pain from yesterday, and I did get some sleep last night. But I would like to know how long the wound is going to heal up so I can move around and eat at a table rather than in bed." Prince Willem knew that Belle Rose was telling the truth, and he waited for the person who works at the castle part-time to stroll through the door. At that very moment, the part-time doctor strode into the bedroom, and he strides over to Belle Rose as well as Prince Willem.

Belle Rose allowed the past-time doctor to check her wound, and he knew that she wanted to know how long the injury needed to heal so she could move around the castle. The part-time doctor looked up at Belle Rose, and he spoke. "The wound is healing nicely, and it should heal up in two weeks. It would be best if you didn't reopen the wound again, and I know that you don't either. So I want you to rest and try to walk around the bedroom first and don't try to bend if you can. As that will make the wound worse, and it can reopen." Belle Rose nodded her head, and she knew that she had to be careful with the knife wound.

Belle Rose was heartbroken that she had to stay in bed for another two weeks so the wound could heal up; however she knew that she could walk around the bedroom. Prince Willem knew that Belle Rose wanted to walk around the castle and explore so she could feel safe and know where everything was. The part-time doctor left the bedroom, and Prince Willem knew that Belle Rose would need something to keep her occupied. Belle Rose still had her backpack on another chair, and she asked. "Can you please give me my backpack as I still got a drawing and colouring to do?"

Prince Willem saw the backpack as he nodded his head and stood up. Prince Willem strode over to Belle Rose's backpack, and he got hold of it by the handle. Prince Willem was surprised to find how heavy the bag was, and he queried. "What on earth have you got in here, and how many did you bring?" Prince Willem brought the backpack over to the bed, and he gave it to Belle Rose as she replied. "Two books, three notebooks, four pens and two metal tin of colouring pencils. A quill pen feather and an inkpot. I draw something that might take you by surprise, and I hope that you will like it."

Belle Rose zipped the backpack open, and she took the items out of the bag. Belle Rose showed Prince Willem the picture of his face, and he was blown away when he saw the picture of him. Prince Willem glanced at Belle Rose as he sat down and questioned. "When did you draw this, and have we met before?" Belle Rose shocked her head, and she replied. "We haven't met before, and I drew that after a dream that I had while I was at Mrs Sprocket's home." Prince Willem knew that she was telling the truth, and he asked. "But why were you at Mrs Sprocket's home instead of your home?"

Belle Rose knew that she had to tell Prince Willem what happened for her to go to Mrs Srpocket's home instead of staying at her family's home, and she responded. "I was at Mrs Sprocket's house rather than at my home because my parents were trying to inform me that they booked a day for Ayers and me to get married. However, I stopped them from telling me as I stood up and told them that I am not a 16-year-old teenager but a 22-year-old."

"I am not going to marry Ayers at all so my parents can spend more time with each other when they are already doing it, and this is my life as I want to do things that I want to do instead of doing things that they want me to do. I yelled at them that Ayers had to marry someone else instead of me, and the wedding was off. My parents don't care about me, and the school trip coming here is the first school trip that I have done on my own as my parents refuse to let me go on the other school trips. They won't let me go on the other school trip because they tore the permission slip right in front of me and I felt left out when my classmates go on the school trips."

Prince Willem knew that Belle Rose was telling the truth, and he was fuming with rage to hear that Belle Rose's parents didn't care about her. However, he knows that it is not Belle Rose's fault as her parents don't realize that they are in the 21st century, and he wonders how they are going to realize that they have to let Belle Rose do things that she wants to do instead of doing things that they want her to do. Belle Rose felt relieved that she had informed someone about her situation, and she wanted to prove to her parents that they didn't know her at all and didn't know what her favourites were and her dislikes were.
