Evie and Eve
A Free Day
This was the day that Evie always wanted and the day Eve was utterly excited to have. A Free Day, no assignments, no errands, no reasons to sneak away from the castle, and nothing from Lady Fate.
Evie and Eve were walking in the town. They used to play here when they were little, but they had to sneak away from the castle. Even when they were teens, they sneaked away just to see the townsfolk who were their friends.
Today, Evie wanted to visit her friend Katrina. A blacksmith in training and the best friend of Princess Genevieve, you can tell how busy that makes her. "Hey! Katrina!" Evie yelled at her. Over the years they have known each other, Evie knew that when Katrina holds her hammer, she barely hears anyone anymore. "Genevieve!" Katrina's hammer flew out of her hands and it nearly hit Evie's face. With quick thinking, Evie ducked. CRASH! Evie straightened and looked behind her to see her sister on the floor with a basket of apples in her hands.
Eve stoop up and gave the basket of apples back to the little boy. "I saved the apples!" she exclaimed as she bit an apple that she had in her hand. The little boy looked at the hammer then at Eve" Thank you Princess Evelyn" he said with a bow. "Please, call me Eve" Eve patted the little boy's hat before she went on with her walk. The little boy scurried way in the opposite direction.
"Your sister is becoming so gentle each passing day" Katrina chuckled as she took off her blacksmithing gloves; she crouched down to look for something in the lower cabinets of her counter. "She's still looking for that prince charming she dreams about" Evie said watching Katrina. "Every girl dreams of their prince charming, why? Don't you?" Katrina said placing a sword on her counter. "And what is this?" Evie asked with curiosity, since it looked like the sword she has always wanted and told Katrina about. "It's your sword made by the finest hands in the kingdom" Katrina said with pride. "Thank you Katrina!" Evie exclaimed as she held the sword's handle. "I'll show this to Adora and see if she approves" she took off with a smile on her face. "Boy, it would really soil her mood if she knew about the news" Katrina sighed and sought for her hammer on the wall.
