It has been a year since that letter arrived. I have been waiting for father for the past 1 year. I am nine years old now.
"Excuse me young miss." Said Rowally as she entered my room.
"Ah! Yes, tell me Rowally, what do you want to say?"
"There is a surprise waiting for you at the front door."
"A surprise? What do you mean?"
"Please follow me."
I followed Rowally all confused to the front door. When looked out my heart filled with joy. Father arrived! I ran and hugged father.
"father, you have arrived!"
"yes, my darling daughter."
He carried me and I hugged him tightly. I saw a young boy with soldiers. He looked my age. I ignored him and focused on father.
"let's go inside. Shall we Aashida?"
"Yes father."
He carried me to the lobby. He and another person whom I did not know sat on the sofa.
"oh, sorry young miss. I forgot to introduce myself. I am count Renaulte ol Drass." Said the anonymous person.
"Ah!" I got up and continued by bowing "I am Anathe de el Lucifer."
"Ah! Yes, I know. You are Mark's daughter. He really praised about you to everyone every single day. I think that is why the empe-"
Suddenly father interrupted "Now Aashi please go back to your room and play with your toys. The count and I have something important to discuss."
"yes father" I replied and went to my room.
I was getting sleepy after playing so I went and took a nap.
When I got up it was already time for dinner. I got fresh and went to the dinning hall. Father was already sitting there.
"Hello father."
"Ah! Hello Aashi. You slept nicely? Come sit down and have dinner."
"yes"
I sat at the chair near father. The waiter bought the dinner. We ate and went to our perspective rooms.
