It's been three months since i began working in the palace. I would forever be grateful to the handsome stranger i met at the brothel.
Every day i wished to see him but i never did.
Sir Mike was nice to me. He was wise, funny and very observant. I soon began to see him as my grandpa.
The palace was very big, i have not had the time to explore and i tried to avoid trouble.
I had made friends with two servants, Anthony and Helen.
Anthony was a stable boy and Helen worked in the kitchen.
Today, grandpa Mike had given me a break. His exact words were, "You've been working so hard. Go and have fun."
I noticed he was in a good mood. It had to be because the crowned was coming back in seven days. The whole kingdom were excited and happy.
I decided to go to the market and look around.
I loved walking around the market, there was so many wonderful things to see.
One time i saw a man who was selling a magic mirrow that can reveal your greatest fear.
Another time i saw a very beautiful unicorn.
They also sold different types of food that i have never eaten before.
I took my time going from stall to stall.
I was thankful to be given a day off, servants in the palace did not have such priviledge.
I bought a beautiful purple scarf for Helen and honey buns for Anthony. I also bought some apples for Pepo, Pepo was a Pony. Anthony had called me to watch when she was born and it was the most beautiful thing. I cried.
When i was tired, i made my way back to the palace.
During dinner i gave Helen the scarf and she was so happy. I knew she would like it, purple was her best color.
After eating I walked towards the stable to give Anthony and Pepo their gifts.
When i got there i could not find anyone.
I sighed and decided to feed Pepo the apples.
When she saw me she stamped her right foot in happiness.
I fed her the apples and stroke her mane. I also gave some apples to her mother who sat quietly watching us.
I was lost in my thought but was startled when i heard a voice behind me.
I turned immediately and froze when I saw who it was.
It was the stranger from the brothel.
"Jonathan?"
He looked surprise to see me too.
