THE MURDER

THIRTY ONE YEARS AGO

THE CASTEL OF THE ROYAL FAMILY

Six year old Corral rushed passed the servants in the castle.

They gave way for her and she went on, her prized treasure in her fists.

"Princess Coral." Someone said. "Watch out where you're going."

She didn't pay heed.

She just went on her way.

Her destination way ahead of her.

Finally she saw her mother talking to some subject.

"Mama!" She said excited.

Her red head bouncing up and down.

The Queen turned to look at her and smiled.

"Hello my princess." The Queen said her attention diverting to her daughter as soon as she saw her.

"Mama see I have a gift for you." She said.

She opened her hands and then she showed her mother the little bird.

The Queen bent down. "Corral that's lovely. You found a bird."

"Can I keep it?" Corral begged. "She would look lovely in my golden cage. I could show her to my friends."
