Stay Safe, Princeling

Aurelia's phone laid abandoned on the carpeted floors, left untouched for days.

Rosknopp stayed open for the duration of time she was gone; the regulars missed their second barista and her cheerful conversation.

Wilhelm stopped by every day - he and Evangeline refused to lose hope that their friend was gone for good.

Life continued on as normal for those who didn't know the girl with the fiery red hair and the kind smile. Only a few felt her lack of presence.

It wasn't until two weeks later, on the eve of Sunday, when Wilhelm's phone rang out, signaling to the Prince that he had received a text.

I'm fine.

Don't find me.

Stay safe, Princeling.
