Modern Princess Academy
Our limo pulls up to a building labeled the Princess Academy. 'What is this place?' I wonder. "Vince, my father said I would be going to a boarding school not a crazy place full of abusive people" Vince, my drive/nanny/best friend (who said being rich means you have friends?), sighed. "Jess, I never wanted to be the one to tell you but, your great-great-great-great-great-grandmother was Cinderella." I had to laugh at this. After I minute I could finally talk "you mean like fairy tales, bippity boppity boo!" I started to laugh again. I looked at Vince, he looked dead serious. "Jess it is true and it's your destiny for you to go to the Princess Academy. Now you should not believe that Grimm Brothers nonsense. They never listened to a word we said. The Cinderella story was so much better than what they said, I think you had to be there to see the real magic." It took me a minute to run this though my mind. But something hit me "do you mean you were there?" He smiled weakly "remember how I was your mother's nanny and you always asked how I could be so old but looks so young?" I nod my head wondering were this is going. "Well I am the fairy God Mother." My jaw dropped, this was just weird, and this could not be true! Like always Vince read my mind (I wonder if that's like a Fairy power or something) "It is true Jessie and it's not good, ever since your father married Wanda your family's money has been disappearing faster and faster. Once you become Princess you can stop that." I look at him, I think of my mother, this must have been were she went to school. Maybe I'll just deal with this for mom. I hold back tears and look at Vince if he can read minds he'll know my answer with out me having to say it. "Great, now he is all you need to know, you schedule and map." History of your Family theirs a new one, and what is mirror class? "Oh, your room mate is Isabelle, grand daughter of Bell or Beauty." He smiles, I try to smile back but I mean really how is that possible? I learned I'm a descendent of a fairy tale princess, my nanny is fairy who's other a thousand years old, and to top it off the person who told me this was not my father or mother! I know my mom would if she was still alive, and my dad could make saying good-bye to me in person because 'this is the deal of a life time', my dad's usual lame excuse. I open my door to leave but before I make it out I hear Vince's voice "Jess I do not read minds." He smiles I can't help but smile back. Even if this is the single handle most scary thing in my life. I smile. I don't know how I did but I smiled. I would do this for my mom, for Vince. Not for my father I would save my family's money before it was too late. I am the descendent of Cinderella. She must have been living like me with a dead mother and an evil step-mother. But she found her prince charming, and I will to. Who knows maybe this school will help me find him. Feeling braver after giving myself that pep-talk I walk inside.
