"Young misses, the Master and Madame have been waiting in the dining room." Just as the two entered the door, an old lady wearing a maid uniform, informed them. "Cindy and Carol, please help the misses to wash and change their clothes."
"YES HEAD MAID." The two maids, both aged 10 years old, responded and brought Sarah and Scarlet to their respective rooms.
…..
"Cindy, did anything happened while I was away?" Sarah ask her personal maid who was preparing for her clothes to wear.
"It was pretty normal for a whole day young Miss but when Master and Madame got home-" Cindy was racking her brains, remembering what happened at the afternoon.
"What happened after they went to the Crowned Prince social gathering?" Feeling something wrong, she asked again.
"They, I don't know how to describe but, when they got home, both of them doesn't feel happy nor angry. Not a single word came out, even when butler Theodore came and ask of any news." Cindy didn't know what to say, anyway it's not really that important if they don't yell at someone.
Sarah wanted to know more information but couldn't get anything else.
Even when the whole family was gathering for supper, nothing really happened, everything was normal. With the help of little Scarlet's story of how she found a flower blooming in snow and how her dear sister know what name it is, the environment was relaxing as how every normal day should be.
…..
In a blink of an eye, 12 years have passed. The seasons passed and time changed everything.
The two little girls have blossomed into lovely teens. Both of them are now attending the Academy located right at the capital of the Kingdom.
Sarah was studying arts, law and medicine. Anything related to reading books, as was her favorite hobby when she was a child. While Scarlet was studying differently compared to her sister. Swordmanship, horsemanship and mapping. She will try anything just to go outside.
Both of the sisters were quite popular, though not in the good way, since the big sister where always bullied while the little sister tends to punch the one who bullies her big sister.
I wasn't really bullied, I just don't make friends that easily and someone would bad-mouth me because of that. Then Scarlet would hear it and everything would turn into chaos. I always think that I'm not really meant to be the elder sister.
"Sister!" A cheerful voice interrupted Sarah as she was reading a book in the Library.
