Prefect Time for the Ball

'Knock Knock Knock'A loud Bang came on the wooden door , Darlene grunted and changed her position pushing the pillow over her head .She couldn't just understand why they like disturbing her sleeping time .

'Knock Knock Knock' The loud Bang came again , Darlene let out a curse as she force her self out of the bed literally dragging the blanket with her .

She lazily opened the door and her eyes met with the maid .

"What??"Darlene asked with an annoyed tone .

"Madame Asked me to give this to you"The Maid answered ,a black box in her hand , Darlene looked at the box and guessed it contained the gown for the Ball .

She collect the box then literally slammed the door closed back .She dragged the blanket lazily with her as she put the box on the dressing table then slumped down back on the bed .

She wasn't in the mood to go the Ball,She just want to cuddle on her bed .

Her eyes consciously glanced out of her window,The Bright sky was already getting dark .

Perfect time for the Ball.She thought .

Forcing her self up from the bed then dragged her lazy self to the bathroom and quickly took a quick shower before the maid comes banging on the door again .

With a towel tied around her body ,She opened the Box then picked up the gown neatly folded inside .

Her lips twitched in distaste seeing the poor quality gown ,She already expected this anyway .

She took off the towel then wore her underwears before slipping into the black gown .

She stood Infront of the Dressing mirror and stared at the gown then shrugged .

At least it's was manageable.

The dress chosen for her was black and has flowery designs on the edges of the gown ,The gown was an off shoulder , Showing off her fair and porcelain skin .

The gown shows off out her curves and She looked really beautiful in it despite it was low quality and dull .

She sat down at the dressing table .

She quickly braided two of her front hair ,She then Opened her drawer again and brought out a small Box ,She opened it and bought clothes brought out her favorite hair pin ,It was given to her on her 19th birthday.

She then pinned both braided hair at the back .She wore the simple necklace given to her for her last birthday ,a silver necklace with a simple heart pendant hanging on it .

'Knock ..Knock ... Knock'A Loud bang came on the door , Darlene suck in her breath then walked over to the door , pushing it open

"Yes??"Darlene asked , It's was the same maid from earlier.

"Madame asked you to come downstairs right now .....and she also asked me to give you this "The Maid quickly said ,a black box in her hand . Darlene arched a brow. but collected the box .

"Is that all??"Darlene asked ,The maid nodded her head then walked away . Darlene shut the door back then walked to her bed placing the box on her laps as she sat down .

She opened it and a black three inches heels shoe was laying there .

Her lips twitched in amusement .

The Woman seems nicer today .She bought out the shoe then carefully inspected it seeing no damage on it ,She wore it .

It was not as if she has any better shoe to put on .

"Seems it's time to go "Darlene muttered ,She quickly brought out the special perfume and spray it all over her body before stepping out of the door .

"Aunt ...."Darlene said as she reached the last step to the floor .Garda turned to her and her eyes widen in shock .

She wasn't expecting the girl to look this beautiful despite the dull and simple gown , she chose for her .

Darlene stood there looking Soo beautiful that she couldn't get the shock out of her head .

Her Emerald eyes stood out more as it gleamed under her long yet curly eyeslashes .

"We wouldn't want to be running late ....."Hannah words trailed out as her eyes landed on Darlene .Her mouth was widen in agape as she stared at her .

How come she was looking even more beautiful than she was .

Darlene side lips lifted a little as she saw the shock in their eyes.

"As my dear sister said....We shouldn't be running late for the Ball ,Let go now"Darlene said in her sweetest tone .Hannah eyes gleamed with jealousy .

She couldn't understand why Darlene have to be more prettier than her .

Hannah wore a flashy Red gown and did a lot of makeup on her face ,A sapphire necklace adorned her neck and her heels were of high quality .

She literally screamed Rich and Elegant .

"Let go"Garda forced the words out of her mouth as she turned her back and walked out of the room .Her eyes were literally burning with anger .

If only she could distroy her beauty .

Hannah glared at Darlene before picking her front gown up and followed behind her mother.

"Be careful Miss"The butler whispered as Darlene made to go outside ,She paused then nodded her head then followed behind the duo ..

Two Carriage were parked outside the house .

"You are following the other Carriage and this is your mask put it on before we reach the castle "Garda announced immediately they all stood outside , Darlene immediately turned to her while Hannah smiled then entered her own Carriage .She shoveled

"But-"Darlene started but Garda already entered the Carriage with her daughter not leaving spacing for any conversation .

Darlene shrugged then entered into her own Carriage .The Carriage was old and Cranky , Darlene rolled her eyes.

She couldn't understand why this Woman was doing this , Wouldn't it bring a bad name to her if people finds out they are from the same family .

The Ride to the Castle was slow and bumpy .She sighed then stared out of the window ,The sky was already scattered with shiny little stars .

A sad smile adorned her lips .

"Mother .....I hope you are doing fine "She murmured gently .Her voice was cracked up with longing emotions .
