Dad: I'm coming in. Wow! Look at my princess. Your looking beautiful.

Catherine: Thanks

Dad: Sofia bring the last thing of this dress.

Catherine: What thing?

Sofia and Janevif brought crown.

Dad: This is the thing I have been talking about.

Catherine: Wow! Dad it's so beautiful.

Dad: In our family, this crown is given to that person who is good, loyal and perfect match for this crown. It is made of real diamonds and I think it's for you.

Catherine: Thank you dad.

He placed the crown on my head and I hugged him.

Dad: Sofia, Janevif are you guys ready?

Janevif: Yes, we are ready but just need to change.

Dad: Hurry up, what are you waiting for? It's about time now.

With they left. Now me dad were alone.

Catherine: Dad, there's something you should know.

Dad: What is it? Is it about Miles? If it is then don't worry I saw what happened on stairs.

Catherine: Before that we ....... K-kissed but it was an accident. I didn't really mean it.

Dad: Calm down! I know it's shocking but don't worry. I'm here for you okay. Does your mom or any of your sisters know about it? Did you tell them.

Catherine: No, only the members of the church and my friends.

Dad: Should I tell your mom?

Catherine: No, please. It's so embarrassing. And even she asked me but I didn't tell her. She might be angry on me that I didn't tell her.

I was interrupted by him.

Dad: Hey! Hey! Don't worry about it. She wouldn't be angry on you, she would be pleased that you told me of what happened and even we our your parents we should be aware of this. Understood.

Catherine: Yes, thanks dad.

He smiled at me.

Dad: Now let's go. We can't let the guest wait. Can we?

We went down stairs. I saw my friends and many strangers.

Dad: Good evening everyone. Today, my daughter Catherine has turned into 17th. And I will be companed by my daughter for the first time as in our tradition.

Me and my were dancing.

Dad: Looks like many boys want to dance with you.

Catherine: Maybe another time, I am perfectly dancing with you.

Then, we stopped dancing and my dad kissed me on my forehead.

Catherine: Now, excuse me. I want to meet my friends.

Dad: Yeah, sure but before that meet your mother first.

Catherine: Okay, but where is she? I haven't seen her since the morning after the breakfast.

Dad: In the kitchen maybe. Why don't you go and check it out?

I nobled and went in the kitchen. Mom was there but she was with Miles and Raina (his younger sister).

Mom: Look at you. Your looking so beautiful.

Miles then looked at me and looked surprised.

Catherine: Thank you. I came here because dad told me that I should meet you first before I meet anyone.

Mom: Yes, because I wanted to give you a new dress.

It was so beautiful. It was a pink top with white gloves, white tights and brown boots.

Catherine: Mom, it's beautiful.

Mom: I knew it, you would like it but I should not get the credit. It is Miles, he bought this for you.

Catherine: Oh...

Miles turned red.

Catherine: Thanks for the dress.

Miles: Not a problem.

Catherine: Mom! Can I have a  glass of water?

Mom: Yes, dear.

Mom grabbed a glass, pour water and gave it to me. I was drinking water.

Mom: I need to go. Okay dear.

Miles: Yeah, okay!

I drank water as fast as I could and I made my way to door. Then, I heard Raina crying. Miles trying to calm her down. But I saw blood on my hand, I turned back.

Catherine: Stop! The glasses are broken.

Miles: What happened?

I came near to the glass and thrown it in dustbin.

Catherine: She got hurt on her left hand.

I then closed my eyes and then I was thinking how did I say that? How did I got to know?

Miles: Thank you for telling me.

Catherine: Welcome. Now, I need to go.

I washed my hand and then I left.
