EMMA POV
I stood in front of the mirror Starring at Myself
I just can’t believe that am the one in front of the mirror
Am totally different and it’s all due to the make up and the wealthy accessories of Dora
Little by little am taking over Dora’s life ,Have been here for three days now and though I hardly leave my room I still have to see and talk to Dora parents and today is not an exception too
The prince will be visiting us and I have to be there to welcome him
There was a knock on the door and the maid walked in
“Miss Dora your mother asked me to tell you that the guest have arrived”She said
I turned and gave her a smile “I will be there soon”
The girl looked at me a bit weirdly before leaving the room
Dora had been cruel and nasty to all the workers, Me being nice and smiling to them is a new thing to them
Dora and I might have the same face but we are different.
“Try to do every thing the way Dora did and you won’t be found out” Those were the words Michael told me when he called two days ago
I might be pretending to be Dora but I can’t possibly be nasty and cruel to others, My father taught me to give respect to others so I will be given respect in return and that’s what I will do and I don’t care if they notice.
Taking a deep breath, I took the new phone given to me by Dora father and then I left the room
I was heading downstairs when I saw an old man cleaning the rail of the stairs
I recognised him to be the man Dora had slapped on the day I had first seen her.
Why would he still be working in a house where he is abused all the time,I thought as I began to walk past him
And at that instant the man slipped and almost fell but I was there to hold him.
“Are you okay sir?”I asked starring at him
“Yes miss Dora I am”He said moving away
“Please don’t fire me because of this, I will do extra job,Just don’t fire me”He said kneeling in front of me
“No,Don’t do that sir”I said bending to lift him up
“Just let me beg you, You had told me that any more mistake from me, I would be sent away and I can’t afford to lose this job”He begged and I felt my heart reach out to him
“Don’t worry, You won’t be fired, I won’t fire you”I said holding his hands which was shaking a lot
“Do you really mean that?”He asked unsure
“Of course, You shouldn’t be cleaning the stairs, You are not that strong to do it , Let me get the other maid for you”I said
“No! please don’t! I will keep on doing it”He replied
“But you look a bit tired sir and……”
“I will be fine Miss Dora, I can do it,All I need to know is that you won’t fire me”
“I wont,Have given you my word already”I replied and He smiled gently
I walked off and still feeling worried I called a maid who walked past me
“I think that man is tired and he refuses to leave what he is doing, So please watch over him”I told the girl
“Yes Miss Dora”She replied and quickly walked off.
I continued to walk off and when I got to the room where the meeting would be taken place, I waited a bit, Feeling nervous.
“Won’t you be going in” Some one said behind me
I turned and saw The prince starring at me, He also had this weird look on his face and just then his expression changed to one of anger.
He stared at me angrily and walked past me almost pushing me out of the way.
What happened? I thought as I went in after him
“Where is she ?”I heard Dora father ask
“She is coming”Brian replied as he took a seat.
I walked further in and when they all saw me they gave me a smile except Brian who was starring at the table still looking angry
I knew every one there except two people who sat beside Brian
“Show some manners and bow to your future father in law and mother in law”Dora father said starring at me
If they were going to be my future father and mother in law then they must be Brian parents,I thought as I bowed gently
“Come have a seat my dear”Dora mother said looking at me affectionately
What’s wrong with her? I thought as I went to seat beside her on the large sofa
“Apart from being pretty, She is also well mannered” The Queen said smiling at me
“You haven’t gotten to know her yet,So don’t say that”Brian said as he took the glass which was filled with whisky and drank in one gulp
“You are right your Highness, Your parents haven’t gotten to know her yet, If they get to know her am sure that they would love her” Dora father gave Brian a reply.
“Why don’t we just get to the reason why we are here, I still have other appointment” Brian said drinking another glassful of whisky
“Brian is right, it’s time to talk about the date of the wedding” The king said
“What date would you want it to be your majesty”Dora father asked the king
“On the 15th of Next month”He replied and I stared at the king
Why did it have to be so soon,I thought
“I do hope all the arrangement can be made before that day”He asked and Dora parents nodded in approval
“The 15th is perfect, A perfect day for the wedding and don’t worry about a thing your majesty, We will take care of it all” Dora father said flaunting off his wealth
“We still haven’t talked about the real reason for all this”Brian said starring at all of us
“Oh the merger! Don’t worry about it, It will surely take place” Dora father replied
“I want a written document of that statement”He said starring at him
“Brian that’s being rude”The king said starring at his son
“And how am I being rude? I will be marrying their daughter, Will be spending the rest of my life with her, It’s only appropriate that I ask for a written statement, After all its the reason why am getting married”He said looking angry and some how I felt that he really hates this as much as I did.
He didn’t want to get married but because of some darn business merger he has to
“Fine then a written statement would be made your Highness”Dora father said and he nodded in approval
Just then Brian phone rang and he excused himself before leaving the room
As soon as he left, They all began to talk about the wedding.
I couldn’t concentrate because I kept on thinking about Brian behaviour
He doesn’t want to get married and that’s the same thing I want too, I thought happily
I better talk to him and make a deal with him, He would have no choice than to accept ,After all he wasnt interested in marrying me.
I stood up suddenly and they all stopped talking
“I…..I just want to go and check up on his Highness,He is taking quite long”I said
“Feeling possessive already, Go and bring your man right here” The Queen said giving me a bright smile
Just hearing her call Brian my man made me feel weird.
I was heading outside when suddenly the storage door was opened and I was pulled into it roughly
I turned to find Michael behind me “why are you here”I asked surprised by his sudden appearance
“To check on you”He replied
“Why would you want to check on me,Am doing everything you are asking me to do”I said
“I know and I trust you to do the job perfectly”
“I better let you in on the real reason why am here”He added
“And what would the real reason be?”I asked
“Its time to put you to your first task”
“My first task?”I asked
“Don’t tell me you have forgotten the real reason why you are here”He asked and after thinking about it for a while,I stared at him in horror
“Don’t tell me that……..”
“Its time Emma, Time to know what your capable of” He replied smiling and I felt my heart beating fast.
