Upon presenting her papers and a copy of the Queen's invite, the guards allowed Elis to pecieve to the floor where the princess was waiting. In her hands was a lotus flower freshly cut from the embassy's garden.
"Here we go...." she thought.
Behind her, guards were keeping a careful eye on her from a distance. She knocks on the door.
"Come in," said a voice behind it.
Elis forced her lips to form a crude smile. She opens the door and walks in. Inside, a neatly dressed girl was sitting on a leather sofa. The princess...
"Princess Sophia?"
The princess nodded. Time for her to get into character...
"Oh my... I been waiting so long to see you!!!" She paces towards the sofa, closing the door behind her, while giggling.
"My name is Elis, Elis Xie! I can't believe I finally get to meet a real princess..you are SO COOL!" She takes a seat right next to Sophia, inside her mind she felt like throwing up.
"Yeah....hi...." the princess replied.
"We should totally hang out from now on, this is my first time out of my country...it's so boring in Loyalist. So, how's it feel to be getting...married!!! I'm so happy for you, you must be so...like....EXCITED!!!" Elis pauses to take a breath, all this acting was gruelling. "OH! I forgot, here's a lotus I got for your dad, I hope he'll like it, I chose it myself!!!" That was a lie, it was Mai Fa idea and choice.
occ: delfos, you can come in if you want.
