Chapter 1- Why Me?

"….hey, stop that!" I moaned as I felt the movement of hands upon my shoulder.

"Lady Qiao, get up now..." Mistress Zhenia growled as she told me to get up, from a good sleep I must say,...then finally I jumped up and yelled out...

"OK,OK...I hear ya...gish..."

"Dont have that tone with me,my Lady!"

"yeah,yeah whatever...so what do you want anyways!"

"your father said for you to get up... and get dress" at that point I started to strach my head judiciously, as if I knew what it was," he said that you were to be leaving for Wu..."

ha just as I thought that crazy old man wanted me to go alone I bet...

"...he also said that he would not be joining you..."

ok, I was right but why...why is he not coming...whats wrong...what did she do...her...I bet it was all her fault...

" he said that he was to stay an do palace matters" at that moment she started smiling

I knew it thats exactly why...after all she is one of father's sluts anyway...

"very well then...so why doe she want to stay here for "palace matters" as you say"

"cant tell you that my Lady, all I can tell you that you must get dress, Immediately!"

"you cant tell me anything...since you want to play the game like that, I'll (pointing to myself) ask him myself!"

She smirks " ha...try me"

"I will" right then I dash out into the halls and head straight for the planning room,as I knew he would be there, as I'm running I hear her yelling at me saying stuff like " you get back here" "you just wait untill I catch up...child" as if she was to do a thing to me anyway...

Suddenly as I appeared before the planning room the doors slammed up before me...

oh no...I really did it his time huh...

I jumped back...and the came out mad as ever as if there had been an cricket rock his nerves

"WHAT...IS THE MEANING OF THIS MADDNESS!" when he looked at me, my heart froze... "XIAO QIAO,CARE TO EXPLAIN..." I was silence as if I had seen the baddest ghost of them all... "...NOW, WONT CHA..." I nodded though it felt as stiff as ever

" Well, poppa I...you see I... I um.." I could bearly get it out because I was so scare it was like I was staking with truly being cold " I...I...I um...I um..."

"WHAT...WHAT,WHAT,WHAT...I WHAT!"

"I wanted to know why you...why you didnt..um.."

He wave his hands, "WHAT...IS IT WHY I'M NOT LEAVING?" all I could do was nod.."HA..I THOUGHT SO, ITS REALLY NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS WHY I'M NOT GOING NOW IS IT...GO GET DRESS SO THAT YOU MAY GO TO SEE "DA"...GOODBYE...SEE YOU WHEN YOU RETURN...I MEAN IF YOU RETURNED!" he waved his hands at me and as soon as I turned around I saw that slut of smirk at me...owww...she mad me mad...

As I went in the carriage to leave for Wu I started to think to myself...
