Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: HUMAN

Once upon a tim-... Wait, wait! This story won't start like that, I'm too special for that kind of introduction. First of all, about me. I'm Elisabelle Isenvor, 22 years old, and I don't have any parents; all I have is my grandmother.

Well, I don't want to talk about my life, but here I go!

First, like I said, I have no parents left. Well, the reason behind it is that they left me in an amusement park when I was little. People in the amusement park said that they tried to find me, but I guess it was a lie. Everybody I know always lied to me, so that made me the "cold" Elisabelle.

I have no friends in town, and I don't want to be friends with dumb people either. It's not to say that I'm intelligent, it's just that I know at least how to read (it is common that people in the town don't know how to read.) The day I tried to make friends is the day I realized how "bad" people are. If you don't fit, then you are an outcast. If you fit, well, then you are lucky. That's it.

That's when I think about what my grandma always said to me: " Society made humans like how they are today: selfish, rebellious, bad, egocentric, and more."

At first I agreed with what she said, but now I'm not sure anymore. I think we humans made society bad, which led us to be bad, because we live in a society. Anyway, life is what it is, we just need to make the best of it.

"LIFE GOES ON"

Now that I told you I have no friends, you must be curious about how I spend my precious time, right? First I take a walk around the town; then I paint; go shopping; and lastly, I go to the fence of the palace of the queen and the king. It's a big white and beige palace where the Queen and the King live with their child: Edmon Singh. I don't have a crush on him, I just envy him. He has a happy family and they always do fun activities together.

We used to be friends when we were little, but that was before my little sister went missing. Edmond fell in love with my younger sister (I still had my parents back then). We used to visit every day and go home late. And one day, my sister got lost. We don't know where she is. One month later, my parents abandoned me in the amusement park, and now I live with my grandmother.

Now back to the present. Currently I'm shopping because tomorrow is my grandma's 77th birthday.

In the shop:

"Hello, Miss, how may I help you?"

"Hello, I'm searching for a birthday gift for my grandma. Do you have any jewelry that doesn't cost too much? "

"We got this beautiful pendant. Would you like to take it? "

"Why not? It is a really beautiful pendant."

"No! It is my pendant. Don't you dare to take it with you, you little witch! "

I turned around and saw my "mom and dad". I thought they were poor, but it seems like they are living fine without me.

I didn't want to fight, so I gave them the pendant and left. Now I need to do one more shop because of them.

At the next shop, I found a beautiful watch, so I took it before "mom" would snatch it again.

Now I'm back home. We were eating when suddenly someone came knocking on the door.

I asked grandma:

"Do you expect a boyfriend today?" "Haha"

My grandma laughed and said:

"No, I'm too old for that. "Go open the door."

As I walked, I said:

"We are never too old for a boyfriend." "Haha"

As I opened the door, there was a general from the palace to tell us:

"Miss Isenvor and Madame Klayden, I, the general of the palace, am here to tell you that the Crown Prince has found his fiancé and is having an engagement party to celebrate that."

"Tell the Crown Prince we congratulate him and the future Queen."

"But, Miss Isenvor, you and Madame Klayden are invited by the Queen herself to come."

"The Crown Prince also told me to tell you that you will be surprised."

"Surprised?"

"Yeah, Miss."

"When is the party?"

"Tomorrow at 9 P.M."

Grandma:

"We will definitely be there."

"Then see you tomorrow, Miss Isenvor and Madame Klayden."

I closed the door and said:

"What about your birthday?"

"It's fine, we can celebrate it in the morning or next year."
