Anna walked around the garden so early in the morning ,she saw all the servants and maids preparing for the party which was after a few more days. Young men from wealthy families all over the city will be coming, invitations have been sent out . Anna wondered if any other man would capture her heart like Sly did. He is like his name sake, cunning and witty , she closed her eyes and tried to remember him.
Anna was back in the forest lying down on the long ,green, grass fields. Her eyes were closed while she rested on the grass, she felt a hand touch her shoulders and he said, " Your turn , come and catch me." She carefully opened her eyes. It was Sly running through the bushes , she got up and ran after him . She pushed herself through the bushes and saw him standing eagerly waiting for her. She looked around and saw that Sly was sitting on a large blanket and on the blanket was a basket of fruits and vegetables. " What is all this?" Anna asked, Sly stood up and replied, " This my lady is our picnic, please lie down next to me."
She gently sat next to Sly he then placed his arms around her and said, " It's me and you against the world ." He placed his lips on hers and kissed her gently ,she laid down on the blanket and he placed his body on top on her's and gently kissed her chest loving her .His hands massaging her shoulders while she kissed his lips ,her heart began to beat so fast as she placed her arms around his waist then slowly she unbuttoned his t-shirt and he undress her . They shut the rest of the world and felt that they were the only people living there.
" Anna! Anna!" Anna looked around and saw her mother yelling for her to come inside. She ran inside the house and said, " What is it mother?" Her mother answered, " Well because we have a few more days left for the party I was thinking if we could go to town and buy new dresses. I know a person in town whose name is Jack and he makes the most exquisite dresses. Anna shrouded her mother's comment and said, '' Yes whatever mother let us go.`` She thought to herself maybe that will let her forget about Sly for sometime.
Her mother called for the carriage to come and take us there , while taking the path to the dress-maker . Anna looked at of the window and remembered all the areas that they past by ,she told herself softly, " This is where I met Sly." Her mother said, " What did you say my dear?" Anna didn't realize her mother heard her, " Nothing mother, I was just mumbling to myself." The carriage suddenly stopped and Anna and her mother stepped out, Anna had never seen this part of the town and it looked interesting, people on carts selling used products. Trades all over town yelling, " 3 kilos of apple for 2 dollars." Anna was shocked that her mother would take her to such a place." Anna asked her mother, " Mother why are we here? " Her mother answered, " I know this is unusual but this is were Jack the tailor works."
Anna saw people bumping into each other without apologizing and men carrying bags of merchandise it was so different than life in the castle.Anna and her mother walked over to a small shop and went inside. A man greeted them kindly, ' Greeting my ladies welcome to Jack's Place. I would like to show you around to see the most expensive dresses and garments."
Jack took Queen Mary's arm and showed her a silky, smooth, green scarf ," I hope this my queen will be to your liking." While Jack was showing her mum around she decided to discover the place. She looked at the dresses and discovered that Jack did know how to make dresses they so fine and magnificent , " Anna come here and look at this!" Her mother yelled, she went to see what her was yelling about ,then she saw her mother Queen Mary was wearing a peacock purple hat. Anna smiled, " It suits you mother you are as proud as a peacock." They laughed. Her mother said, " Oh I have a few more gowns to try out . Do you mind waiting?" Anna had a suggestion , " Mother while I am waiting do you mind if I discover this part of the town." Her mother looked at her suspiciously at first ,then she replied, " Don't be too far and if you don't come after 15 minutes I will send the guards to find you understood?" Anna nodded, " Fine mother what ever you say."
Anna went strolling around and she said to herself , " Finally I was alone without any hovering from her parents and now her father was planning of getting her a bodyguard, all this is killing me." She screamed, " I want to be free." She heard someone ask her, " Free from what my Lady?"She turned around and found an old woman on the ground sitting on a large ,soft cushion seat. Anna went up to her and asked, " Who are you?" She asked the old lady. "Ah I am a gipsy and can see your future from this crystal ball." She pointed at a chair, " Please sit down my Lady and I will tell you about your future." Anna didn't believe in these things but it didn't hurt to play along. Anna sat and told the gipsy , " Sure I would like to know what the future holds, "The gipsy took the palm of Anna's hand and admired it carefully than said, " Oh you are in love, but a love that is lost to you." Anna began to think of Sly, " Is it really lost ?" Anna asked. "Be quite!" The gipsy replied, " I see him close by my princess ,but you have to search for him." Anna asked her, " What do you mean I have to search for him?' The gipsy answered, " Because he is in disguise you can not see him as who he he is , he is not a poor thief." Anna got confused, " So what is he now?"
" Anna ! Anna dear we have to go ." She heard her mother yelling for her, Anna told the gipsy that she had to go. Finally her mum found her with the gipsy and asked, " Where are you Anna and why are you with a gipsy?" Anna replied, " Mother, I just wanted to see what my future holds." Her mother laughed at that comment. " Oh Anna, you already know what your future holds."She smiled, " You are going to marry a prince and all the other young women are going to be jealous of you. Now let us stop the nonsense chit chat and let us go back to the castle and get ready."
Anna thought in her mind, her mother would never understand her reason to change, she just hoped that one day she will be more open minded and allow her to become whatever she wanted to be. When they reached the castle Anna went for a stroll in the garden, she played with animals like the rabbits , those are one the animals she loved and adored, while playing with the rabbit a pigeon can along and sat next to them, Anna thought it looked so pretty . The pigeon was as white as the clouds and her wings spread out like a beautiful fan around the pigeon's neck Anna noticed around its neck. She held the pigeon in her hand and thought of something:this pigeon can be used as a pigeon carrier. Anna said, " Let me write a letter to Sly and hope that the pigeon I would send it to him.
She got herself a pen and wrote: "Dear Sly, How I am longing to see you again , unfortunately our traditions have torn us apart, but I hope that our love is strong enough to pull us back together. Please keep on believing in us and wait for me to come back to you. As I patiently wait for you my love and I am desperately hoping to see you soon. Loves and Kisses Anna." She then carefully wrapped the letter around the pigeon's neck and whispered in her ear, " Please fly away and send this note to Sly ." She let the pigeon fly off ,hoping that she will find her love again.
