"I must say, this past three days have been too quiet and peaceful for us. I mean, even this Ice cream tastes so different and exceptionally good". Tina said, then took a big spoon out of banana flavored ice cream we had ordered earlier.

"Why wouldn't you feel that way?... The one who provokes us daily hasn't been in school since two days ago". I reminded her. I couldn't agree more with Tina.

"Who could that be?" Phillips asked, as he picked out the lettuce from the burger he had.  He hated lettuce.

  "Who else could it be?... Everyone knows that she's a royal pain in the ass. Annabelle that is". Tashie answered Phillips.

"Well, I can't say much about her. She has been really good to me, you know". He said, shrugging his shoulders.

  "What is it with men and evil women that are good to them?... My brother also said that!" I couldn't help but ask loudly.

  "Shhhh...keep your voices down". The librarian said and walked away.

  Here we were, in the library, trying to do some project. This was the special library were kids of men with higher caliber went to, so they could read. I brought Tashie, Tina and  Phillips here so they could all give me good advices on the perfect gift to give grandmother who's birthday was coming up Saturday. Today was Tuesday and I haven't even figured out what to give her.

"Did she just walk by without complaining about the food we brought into the library?" Tina asked.

"Maybe she didn't see it". Tashie defended.

"Even if she did, who is she to complain about it?... A word to my grandfather and she's gone". I boasted.

  "I'm afraid of the authority you carry". Phillips said in such awe that made me burst into laughter.

  "Anyway, do you guys know what I can give grandma?" I asked them.

  "We've said all we could. We asked if you could give her clothes, cars, money or even paintings. You said no to every single thing we mentioned". Said Phillips.

"What is wrong with you, Idiot?... SHE'S THE QUEEN! THE QUEEN OF THIS NATION... SHE HAS EVERYTHING SHE WANTS ALREADY. ESPECIALLY MATERIAL THINGS. JUST LAST WEEK, FRANCE SENT HER, THEIR LATEST COLLECTION OF PERFUMES FOR HER UPCOMING BIRTHDAY!!!" I couldn't help but yell at him.

"Your highness... The library is meant to be qui-"

"Oh, Shut up now, will you?... Take this money and get out. We're discussing something important". I replied the librarian, throwing her a bundle of money which was in my bag and ordering her to get out.

  "Yes, your highness". She said and scramed out.

"Hmm...Money commands all things indeed". Tashie said solemnly as she browsed through her phone.

"The way you use money to get your way is really amazing". Said Tina, scraping the last spoon of ice cream from her cup.

"She's Eleanora Andrews. What did you expect?" Phillips said, throwing me a wink. I rolled my eyes at him and said nothing more.

"Nora... Do you know that King Azad just declared three days holiday in honor of the Queen who's birthday is coming up". Tashie read out the news headlines.

"Oh my! Seriously?... Do you know what that means?!!" Tina said excitedly.

"Don't get too excited. You're spending those three days with me, in the eastern palace!". I announced.
