My eyes were full with tears.
It also flashed sorrow.My life have been dark ever since I was born as a princess in molota Kingdom. I always wanted to be free like other female children, always wanted to wear something else apart from long boring gowns all the time, always wanted to go to the market square to watch festivals and weddings, always wanted to go to the shop,market,river, oceans, forests, and even farm to play and swim like other children but I just couldn't decide for myself.
I was always locked up in my room either receiving facial treatment or forced to sleep. I only wake up to see the room and palace clean,the maids must have done that actually. I only take a shower and dress in those boring gowns and walk round the Palace of course, I'm not allowed to leave the Palace.
I accepted my fate and decided to be happy but everything was not working as I wanted my mom the Queen was forced to marry my dad the king on her 18th year birthday by her parents my mom fell in love with a carpenter who did a lot of woodwork down the road they met when she was returning from a festival at the market square there in malakia kingdom.
