Astrid had opened the shop with the help of sophie ,sophie looked at the coat and her face lighten with excitement, "You've made this, for me??" she said. Astrid nodded while smiling, "yes! I made it just for you" said Astrid "hope you like it heh.." Sophie grabs the coat and she puts it on. "I don't like it i love it silly! it's so cozy and soft! " She said while smiling. Sophie then looked at the small container that is wrapped around a glue cloth with white dots.
"What's that??" Asked sophie as she tried warming her hands. "Well that's a pie my dad had freshly baked this morning." said Astrid as she pats the container. Sophie sophie smiled with excitement. "your dad's pies are my favourite " Sophie said as she continued "can you just give me only one hint to your dad's recipe of his pie? just one pleeeease!" Said Sophie. Astrid shook her head "nope! no can do" she said as sophie whined and Astrid giggled, "how is your shop so far??" Sophie asked "it's going really great, the last month I gained 500 shirlings (coins) thanks to you!" She said and Sophie smiled happily "that's really good! keep the good work up! your dad must be very proud of you" Astrid nodded "oh yes he is definitely " she said "he's happy for me I'm finally doing something useful other than running around in the woods chasing deer.
After a bit the carriage arrived to a stop and both of the girls hoped down and walked to a tree , there usual hang out spot. they held hands as they both walked to a pink cherry tree where a boy was already waiting for them, he saw them and he stood up holding his guitar and he bows down. "Welcome princess. " Said the boy and Sophie and Astrid smiled "thank you kalf" said sophie as astrid and kalf made eye contact for a hot minute and both of them blushed and kalf smiles abit "Lady Astrid " said kalf as astrid smiles back "kalf " Sophie looks at Astrid as she raises her eyebrow and then three of the teenagers took a seat under the tree , Sophie and Astrid sat down together where as kalf sat down on the other side of the tree.
kalf picks up his guitar and prepares himself as he clears his throat. Sophie looks at Astrid and she raises her eyebrow as she smirks. "What's up with you two??" Asked Sophie as astrid shakes her head. "nothing!..." whispered Astrid as she giggled a bit trying not to blush even further. "the song princess?" Asked kalf "Yes, the same one kalf" she said as she made herself comfortable and Astrid did the same as she opened up a book that sophie had borrowed from the maester, both of the girls began reading the book as kal began singing and began playing his guitar "she fled with her ships and her people" he sang as astrid opened the container and cut three slices of blue Berry pie and gave one slices to sophie and kal and they began reading and singing.
After awhile later kal had left them and Astrid was reading as Sophie was laying down on the plush green grass as she had rested her head on astrid's lap, Sophie was playing and fiddling with the bottun while Astrid red. Astrid looked down at sophie and she sighed abit "how is princess petra?..." she asked "she's fine... rarely comes out of her room... " said sophie looking down at her button "... I haven't seen her in days now " she kept fiddling with the button "where was the last time she had come out of her room?" Astrid asked "I've last seen her in the garden where Melisandre's funeral was held... that was 12 days ago" she said "she was sitting near the lake.. her eyes were red and it was like she was crying..." Sophie looks up at Astrid as astrid looked down at sophie "she left when she saw me... we never once talked in days..." Sophie said as she sighed "it's not your fault you know that right?..." Sophie nodded abit "I know but I wish the unlucky one that night..... atleast my sister wouldve not been mad at me " Astrid clicked her tongue "hey don't say that...! you have a bright future ahead of you, you're the king's daughter!"
"and soon you'll become a great queen of this planet and you'll rule it one day, and soon maybe petra would forgive you and you'll be back friends in no time. Astrid said smiling.
"I don't know about that... when dad brought back petra to our dimension before he had named me heir to the throne, but now my eldest sister has come and now I don't really know who will become heir to the throne.... a-and I overheard the council members talking about replacing me as heir ... and naming petra as heir" said sophie worriedly, she was an ambitious child and she wanted, no needed that throne no matter what and she wasn't gonna let anyone in her way not the council members, and not even her sister.
