Prologue
Ever since I was born, my parents named me Kasi. I share the same black hair and tan skin as them but I have two of my mother's beauty marks at the corner of my left lip and corner of my right eye. Usually I fix my long hair into a tight braid so it cannot bother me. On my forehead, I have a red bindi and my left bangs. We lived in a small house with my two older brothers. Even though we are poor, my parents always tell us that money is not always the answer to happiness. I hold those words in my heart every day.
When I turned twelve, I remember when I first come to a large palace as a servant. I cleaned the marbled floor until I could the reflection of my face. Marbled columns hold up the large home. Some of the doorways were decorated with gold or gems. I could see the man of this manor was surrounded by beautiful women; probably the women are his wives.
When I finished cleaning, I saw children similar to my age running freely around. Their clothes were made of silk and worn much jewelry. Sometimes, I wonder if their father pays attention to all of his children and his many wives.
After a month past, I was called to the room where the man occupied with another female servant named Mina. She was four years older than me; I know little about her but a few servants whispers that she complains about various things. My heart beats wildly in my chest, I'm was afraid if I did something wrong to anger the owner of the palace. He stares at both of us, studying us like we are prey. Soon, he spoke up.
"Mina and Kasi, I'm entrusting you to take care of one of my sons name Soma. Make sure he is raised happy and well or I will hear about it." He finally said.
After we left, Mina scoffed to display her disgust when we were alone in the hallways.
"We have to look after a brat now…" She comments. I held my tongue, knowing it will be a waste of time arguing against her. She turns her head to me, "Better not get in my way or ruin this for me."
I remained silent as Mina notes it as a yes. Soon we arrive to the young prince of seven years, Soma in his room. He looked at us with his innocent gold eyes and spoke up, "Who are you?"
When I tried to greet him, Mina interrupted me to introduce herself first. I only stare at Mina's quick change of personality from selfish to nice and happy. I could see Soma easily taken in by her 'nice' persona. Soma turns to me next with interest, waiting for me to introduce myself.
"My name is Kasi, Prince Soma Asman Kadar." I said as I bow my head to him. He nods at me and Mina, "Are you my friends now?" He asks. Instantly Mina answers yes, but I answered something else.
"Well, I can't be friend if we don't know each other well." I answered honestly. I could feel Mina's glare at me, almost want to attack me right now. Soma pauses then smiles widely, "You're right! We should know each other more! Tell me about yourself Kasi!"
Soon I found myself exchanging words with Soma as he listens to me about my family with wild stories I heard from my father.
