"When I was little, I used to be friends with everyone. No matter their ages or gender, I always had a good rapport with everyone. Until I met Mallory, Mallory was the first one to hate me when we were kids. Everything I had, she stole from me. As a child, my mom always told me to be generous and good to them. So I did what she said. But Mallory didn't like that, so without any reason, I decided to change for her to see if she would like me and be friends with me. Well, it worked. But only for a short time, because I was tired of all that acting in front of her. Since that day, we have never talked to each other. And it still hasn't changed."
The childhood story is finished.
Anna was walking down the path to go do some shopping at the market because she was hungry.
Anna: "Lalala, I'm going to get some tomatoes, meat, fruits, blah blah blah." "It will be a big feast tonight for me!"
Anna lives alone, as her brother is away for a while and their mother has passed away. The father ran away at the birth of Anna because he thought having a girl was embarrassing. (In their country, a lot of people still think that men are above women.)
And as she walked, she met... guess?
That's right, Owen and Mallory. She didn't realize it, but they all live close to each other.
"Look who do we have here?" commented Mallory. "It's our lovely Anna."
Mallory: "By the way, how is your brother doing?"
"Fine," I said in a cold tone.
"Hubby, look, she's being cold to me." "Or are you jealous that I have a boyfriend and not you?"
Anna thought to herself, "Anna, don't fall for what she is saying." Show them that you're strong.
I kept my strong surface the whole time. Until he needed to speak
"Oh, Anna, you look a little bit pale." "Are you by chance sick?"
ANNA, DON'T BLUSH! DON'T BLUSH! "He has a girlfriend!" thought Anna.
"Oh, um, yes, I am; thanks for worrying." [Cold tone] Show him you have no feelings.
"Ummm, no problem."
*AWKWARD SILENCE*
Someone please take me away from them!!!
"Anna, what are you doing here?": unknown
"Oh Joanna, what's wrong?"
"Didn't you say we were going to eat?" I'm waiting! "Are you coming or not?!"
"I'm coming; wait for me!"
To Owen and Mallory: "Well, I need to go; see ya."
I hope we never see each other again! Sayonara.
Anna left with Joanna and ate at a restaurant.
Joanna questioned Anna a little bit about the royal environment and people. Anna answered all of her questions out of gratitude, as she had saved her in that situation. but also because she trusts her a little bit.
On the other side of Mallory and Owen
Owen was kind of sad about the way Mallory treated Anna. But at the same time, he doesn't want to care because they don't know each other.
And Mallory was grumpy after her encounter, as she was again jealous of Anna.
