Queen for a day - and life!

Time for a real treat - a really long text by our next Queen, Roxie.

How would I spend a day as a QUEEN

Usually when I think about queens life, my thoughts get messed up. Queens can live in big castle or just look like a poor woman and live on streets so I can’t decide where “me as a queen” would live. So… I would live in a big house, not castle because I would just feel lonely and lost in there though there would be many servants and visitors to help me. The house would be painted white and there would be rosewines and those roses would be blue. So that’s my house. My house wouldn’t be two storey, ‘cause it would be just too big. Now to me.

Here I am at my house. I’m dressed in my favorite clothes: white hoodie and gray college pants. The limusin that took me here was now going already. I feel a bit nervous. My servant is running down the stairs that lead to the house. “Sorry I’m late, my mistress”, my servant said. “Oh no, I don’t mind. And just call me Roxie, please”, I smiled. My servant bowed and then smiled at me. He’s so cute! My servant was a boy, same age as me. He has short dark hair and bright gray eyes. His clothes were very old fashioned. If you know those fantasy stories and movies you know what he looks like. “So let’s go inside, my mistress-no-I mean Roxie”, he blushed a little and I laughed at his reaction. He’s just so cute.

When we climbed the stairs, my servant started to talk: “So you are Roxie, right? My name is Sebastian”, I heard him say. “That’s really old fashioned name but it really suits you”, I smiled at Sebastian and he blushed. “Umm… about your clothes…”, he tried to mutter something. “I know, I know! I just don’t have anything to wear that I would use in a place like this, you know. I’m just an ordinary girl”, he nodded as a mark that he understood. I think we will get along great in these two days I’m staying here.

We FINALLY reached the house. I felt like dying but Sebastian didn’t even sweat! He really is used to living here. We walked through a garden with blue roses. I looked at those roses. They’re just so beautiful. We reached the door and before I could touch it, it opened by itself. I got scared and made a little noise. “Did I scare you, mistress?” a beautiful young girl opened the door. She had brown silky hair and emerald eyes. She had a green long dress and an apron. “Yeah, you scared me good. By the way, don’t call me mistress. I would be happy if you called me Roxie”, I smiled at the girl. She turned red like a tomato. Why everyone here are so sensitive at compliments!? Anyway, I don’t dislike that. “I don’t mean to hurt your feelings but… aren’t you a little too young to be a queen?” the girl asked. Before I could say anything Sebastian spoke: “I thought the same thing”, they both stared at me. Oh god why…”Well sorry, but aren’t you a little too young to be servants?” I glared at them. I believe my words were a little harsh but what you can do about it? “R-Roxie, you might be a little hungry and tired from the trip, so, what if we go inside and have something to eat!?” the girl continued cheerfully.

“I’m not hungry at all”, I sighed out loud. “You have to eat something!” the girl shouted to me while forcing me to eat a piece of cake. “By the way, y-you haven’t told your name yet, right?” I said trying to change the subject. The girl blushed again. “My name is Shasha”, the girl said and smiled. “Nice to meet you Shasha”, I smiled back. “Okay, and now you have to eat and then you’re gonna have a bath”, Seastian said while walking in the room. “I’m not hungry!” I shouted. “You have to eat!” Shasha shouted back. Suddenly I felt my arms in a tight grip and I couldn’t move them. I looked up and saw Sebastian’s smiling face. My smile freezed. “This isn’t fair…”, I said. “Now say aaaa”, a piece of cake came closer. “NOOO!!” I screamed.
“What a horrible experience!!” I sighed while taking a bath. “Oh, well… I said and relaxed. After I got myself dry and my pyjamas on I get to the huge bed. “Good night!” I shouted but nobody answered. I felt a cold grip around my heart. And finally I fell asleep.

“Wake up sunshine!” Shasha came dancing through the door. “Oh, shut up”, I dive deeper to my plankets. “Nope, can’t do! Besides you are leaving this evening, so we don’t have time to waste! It’s already ten o’clock!” Shasha came to me and dragged me away from the bed.
“Are you sure this is okay?” I asked Shasha. “Of course, my dear! You look great!” she spoke in tone. I sighed. I was wearing a blue long dress and lots of white lace. “And now you’re gonna wear these…”, she showed me blue shoes with huge heels. “I’m totally fine like this…”, like hell I’m gonna put those shoes on! “It’s not that bad Roxie… Roxie? Roxie!!” before she knew it I ran away. Is living like a queen really like this!? I ran and ran. I dive in a corner and stayed silent while Shasha ran past. I stood up and ran in an opposite way. So we are gonna play ‘hide and seek’ all day… brilliant!

It was something like five past one when my stomach started to hurt. I think, I should have eaten that cake last evening. “Oh, Roxie there you are! Shasha is looking for you”, Sebastian came to me. Oh god…RUN!! “You’re not running!” Sebastian grabbed my hand. I struggled. “Calm down, I’m just gonna take you to lunch or really it’s snack time already, it’s half past one”, Sebastian said. Does time flow really that fast here!?

Om nom nom… Oh god I’m so hungry! “R-Roxie slow down, you’re gonna get a tummy ache!” Shasha said. Yes, she found me. But I made her give up those horrible shoes! One point for me, teehee! The food is so good! Cakes, candies, ice cream, tea…All yummy things. Om nom nom…

It’s already four o’clock! Time passes really fast here. It feels a bit sad. I don’t wanna leave just yet. I’m in the garden. I’m laying on the ground in the middle of those blue roses. I feel like one of them. I started singing… I don’t know what I was singing, the lyrics just came out of my mouth. I really don’t wanna leave just yet…

“Roxie your parents are here!” Sebastian came to get me from the rosegarden. “So they are here…”, I sighed. I ran down the stairs and hugged my parents. “I don’t wanna leave yet so can I stay here?” I asked. Every one looked at me in a shock: “What!?”. “I wanna stay here…”, before I could finish Sebastian and Shasha hugged me tightly. “YAY!!!” they shouted in my ears. This is how I spent my first two days as a queen.

THE END
