Hi, I am new to FanFiction! You can call me Pearl. This is my first story. I hope you like it.
Disclaimer: I don't own The Selection or Kiera Cass.
There was going to be another Selection. But this time it would be different. They weren't looking for a suitor for the Princess. They were looking for an Ambassador. Someone who would have to travel abroad; and be prepared to stay away from their family. And since my sister had left a couple of years ago,I'd be fine. This was just as important as Selection but the Ambassador was not as well known amongst the old people. I would love the title.
That is if I managed to get chosen. And get picked by the King, Queen and Princess. And how was I out of the millions of twenty year olds, budding young women with dreams of serving their country.
I had no family. My mother died when I was young and I moved to my sister's house as soon as I could to get away from my broke father. My sister left to go to the next region for better pay, and I haven't heard from her for two years. I lost hope a long time ago.
I know I have to become the Ambassador if I get chosen. I'd be able to get away from my dreadful past and look forward to the next day, without the fear I'd be judged, or feel ashamed of who I am.
Would it be the right choice to try though?
I'd be leaving Illéa for a long time. Nobody does that anymore. There are no such thing as going abroad for holiday; unless you count going to the next region. When my mother was alive we would got to the furthest region. To the beach where we splashed in the water and built sand castles. And then that happened. It's been ten years.
The form to apply is short. There are pages of conditions and behaviour rules towards other girls our age. I don't interact though. Unless you count my colleagues at work, I live alone. Furthest away from the city centre. In the smallest neighbourhood around. I am a person of solitude. Is that going to affect me when I speak to other people abroad.
I am hoping too much. Let's hope the form gets there by the deadline first.
They announce the results in two days at 6pm.
Too long to wait. Way too long to wait.
