" What do you mean by not now? You are now mature, should I list how many people of your age that are now married? Do you want to spoil our royal name? That the Watterson only daughter don't want to get married? Is that what you want? Please don't do this to us. It is not in any royalty history,so let's not make it the last I beg of you.Such an action could potentially damage the good name and reputation of our royal family, both domestically and internationally.
"Like I said,when I'm ready you all will be aware of...." When will that be! WHEN WILL THAT BE SAPPHIRE!we've waited and waited for you yet no response making us look like a fool. Andre Sapphire Watterson, I'd need a response from you. Not just by words but by visual action from you" said Mrs Watterson in anger as she stood up to leave." Being born into a royal family is hell yeah stressful,cause same people pressuring me will still be the same people blaming me for marrying the wrong people when the time reach. You know what sapphire,calm down; breath in and out and you'll be fine, don't be too desperate and go for the nonchalant one. Just take your time and go for the one that will truly love and appreciate you. I don't seem to get why everyone won't understand me,like is it that hard? I'm just a soft girl who want to live a soft life.urghhh! " Sapphire said to herself while pacing around.
"Your royalty,food is ready. Would you like me to bring yours now?"asked one of sapphire's maid while bowing down to sapphire . "Yeah! Yeah,sure"sapphire said in response while nodding her head.
Sapphire ate alone in her big spaced room with drawings at the walls of the room and the first corner was herself and some piece of art work, showcasing a pregnant lady falling of a clip,the second corner was some stickers of butterfly and stars.... While the rest was a painting of some fighting soldiers which takes her back to her history class

Sugar Ray Leonard, the reigning welterweight champion, faced Tommy Hearns, the reigning junior middleweight champion. The fight took place at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas and ended with Leonard winning by technical knockout in the 14th round.
She sat, pondering why her parents are insisting on her marrying,when she just wants to be a normal girl with a normal life, without having to deal with responsibilities or kids or duties. Just want to leave a free life
Kung,! Kung! Sapphire heard a sound on her big wooden door." Hold on one sec" sapphire said and came back to reality. "Come in!" She said as she tucked in her hair behind her ears. "Uhmm uhm,I know I'm not suppose to be here but if you don't mind...." One of the maid, Stephanie said without completing her words
"Sure! Sure!" Sapphire said without allowing sapphire complete her words adjusting and tapping her bed simultaneously signaling Stephanie to come sit down. "Thank you" : "nah! Don't mention "sapphire said with a smile on her face. "So what brings you here, do you have a surprise for me?" Sapphire asked as she opened her arms broad and smile again while raising her eyebrows."of course not my princess,I don't have any surprise,but I'm her to discuss something with you. If you don't mind " ..."of course I don't ,feel free; Talk to me."sapphire said.
"Well,it's not like I was eavesdropping but I heard the queen your mother,in an angry tone complaining of how you don't want to get married and I thought I'd ask you myself if you have a specific reason for that,but it's okay if you don't want to share it to me ....I mean I'm just you maid" Stephanie said,now with concern in her voice.
"Uhmmm....I...I don't know... Uhmm. I don't know how to explain it in a way you guys would understand" Sapphire said with her voice a little cracky. "Don't worry,you can talk to me if you want,I don't judge."Stephanie said with a reassuring smile. "Uhmm,so the thing here is that my parents wants me to get married,and they're really pressuring me,but as a matter of fact,I don't And it because I don't feel like there's a need. I mean there's no special life that married people live and me don't , nothing really different just stress and responsibilities and duties and expectations and troubles and invasion of privacies. I like my own space,I like been alone until I don't want to,I don't know how to handle pressure,you get? All those stuff ain't my thing. That's just the reason"sapphire said.
"Well, my pretty princess,there is no responsibility and duties in marriage like you are sounding,you can still be married and live your normal life, nobody is going to stop you from doing that,you have all the personalities that makes you a good and perfect wife. Taking care of kids isn't that hard,I helped raise you. Although the reason is because you are born in royalty,but nevertheless, I'd say it's nothing there. It easier to take care of a kid that a mature adult ..... Trust me there are going to grow one day. There won't be kids forever would they? You were once a kid and now look. Look at you, discussing matters about marriage. It is not hard,don't just overthink it. "Stephanie said while giving Sapphire a motherly look.
"Well I'll think about it,but even if I decide that I want to get married where do I start from,I don't have friends and I don't go out that much,so how do I go about it?" Sapphire asked. "Leave it to me,aren't I a soil of this land? Once you are ready,just let me know and I'll tell you how to go about it" Stephanie answered giving the vibes of "let me handle it"
"Uhmm, thank you so much at least I feel relieved for talking to someone about it. Thank you once again" .... "Oh no! No! It's okay by me,no need to thank me I should be the one thanking you for giving me privilege to talk and opportunity to know how u genuinely feel. Thank you princess " Stephanie replied with a smile heading towards the door.
