The Chosen (On Hold)

Chapter 24

My province was 7 hours away from the palace. So I pretty much slept for 7 hours. Typical me.

"Miss you need to wake up" Lisa said trying to wake me up. Instead of refusing to wake up like I usually do, I instantly got up. Why you may ask? I was going to see me freaking family, that's why.

I got up and gathered my stuff.

"As soon as you get off, there will be reporters. But mostly there will be fans. You need to show Illéa that you can handle this" Lucy, my head maid instructed me. I nodded. My maids quickly adjust my tiara and clothes before I walked out.

I took a deep breath and nodded towards Lucy.

"Walk out in 5, 4, 3, 2...... And 1"

The flight door opened and I walked out of the plane, plastering on a fake smile for the reporters. But the fake smile immediately turned into a real genuine smile when I saw all of my fans. I gasped a little. People were holding signs that read things like "Queen Abigail" , "Long Live Lady Abigail" , "You are my Hero"

I was touched.

I signed some things and talked to many people. The reporters seemed surprised that I actually interacted with my fans. But one girl stood out to me. She was all alone, no parent in sight. She had fiery red hair, large green eyes, and was dressed in dirty clothes.

"What is your name?" I said bending down.

"Zoe" she said shyly.

"Where are your parents Zoe?"

"They died. And I don't know where to go. Nobody likes me" she said. She started suddenly started crying. I pulled her in for a hug. I hated seeing people cry.

"Oh hunny don't cry" I said as I held her. I was very well aware of the reporters and people staring.

"You know what? I'll take you home with me. You can stay with my family until we get this figured out. Does that sound good?" I said, pulling back and wiping away her tears. She sniffles and nodded.

"But I can't stay with you. You're a princess!" She said, her eyes wide.

"I'm not princess honey but you are" I said. I took off my tiara and placed it on her tiny head. I heard a couple gasps and awwws . "Inside each and every girl is a princess. You have to choose whether you want to show it or not"

She smiled. I stood up and smiled back. I extended my arm out so she can hold onto my hand. Her fingers could only hold onto my pinky finger. And together, we walked down the red carpet, to the limousine.
