Astrid's POV
Everyone was busy. I told the queen that I'd take care of the flower arrangement. She left for a while to loosen up.
She's been too busy lately, and we notice that she's tired. I take a break and decide to walk around the backyard.
The wind was still cold. Six weeks from now, summer will arrive. I notice my big brother sitting on a tree. He saw me and waved his hand.
"What's the matter, big brother?" I ask. He shakes his head and smiles.
"I am just surprised that I can roam around without being watched or asked what I am doing. I'm from their rival kingdom, but they made me feel that I'm free to do everything I want," he says.
I leaned on the tree as well and raised my left hand.
"Did you know I had the same feeling when we arrived here as well? I can eat whatever I want. I can go whenever I want. They also give me money that I can spend whenever I want to go to the market," I utter.
