The Princess Diaries
Chapter one
As Mia lay awake at her bed she wondered if what just happened was real or a dream. If it was a dream it had been a shocking dream kind of like a nightmare.
"MIA!" her mum called to her.
"Yes! I'm up here mum." She called out. Her mum came running up the stairs.
"Oh there you are," she breathed a sigh of relief "Your grandmother said you ran out on her, what happened?"
"Well let's see, where to begin," thought Mia quite bitterly "She said that I was a princess! Mum did you know anything about this?"
"Well um…" she began thinking of what to say next. She wanted so badly to lie to Mia but she knew that one day Mia would've eventually found out about this 'bad' news as she called it.
"Well honey," she began again "I don't want to lie to you but…" Mia cut her off.
"So you knew?" Mia shouted at her mum angrily.
"Well…yes I did. But we thought it was best that you didn't know. We didn't want to spoil you." She started off, and she continued and Mia listened to the rest of her explanation trying to understand why they didn't tell her.
"So that's why we kept it a secret if you'd like to call it that!" her mum finished off. Mia didn't know what to say to that so she sat there silently waiting to see if her mum had anything else to say but she didn't. A few seconds later her mum went back down leaving Mia alone.
Later after dinner her grandma called her.
"So Mia you alright?" asked her grandmother to Mia.
"Not really." Answered Mia truthfully to her grandma.
"Well I just wanted to tell to remember to come to your princess lessons tomorrow and get you ready!" said grandma not caring what it was Mia said to her just so long as she came to her lessons.
"But I…" started Mia but her grandmother cut her off.
"Then I'll see you tomorrow! Ciao!" then she hung up. Mia was speechless. As she stood there dumbfounded her mum called to her.
"Mia! Have you feed Fat Lou yet," asked her mother, but Mia didn't answer her. "Oh well I'll just feed him myself then."
Finally Mia snapped back to reality totally unaware that her mum had spoken to her. Mia started up the stairs but then stopped, 'what did grandma mean by getting me ready?' she wondered only noticing now that grandma had said that. 'I wonder if she'll even tell me if I asked' Mia continued thinking all the way up the stairs to her room.
