Chapter Twenty Four
Same Thing in Common
(Rose POV)
I never would have guessed that Master would have liked the type of books that I liked. In fact all of the books that I looked at in the Library all seemed to be ones that I would have liked to read sometime. It seemed that every time I found a book, it was something I would have read back home.
But one book that I found really seemed to spark his interest; it was 'The Silver Heart', one of my favorite books. I don't know how Master got it but I was really happy that Master seemed interested in it also. I guess that we have the same thing in common when it comes to books.
"It's about a girl who hopes for her true love to find her in a castle, guarded by a ferocious king who will never let her leave. But one day a knight that came from a far land. The king's land and the knights' lands were enemies, and the girl was the knights' love. The brave knights made his way to the castle through many other knights and fought them with all his might. He then rode to where his true love was at. He defeated the evil king and made his way up to the dungeon where he found the locked away princess. She was grateful to him and as they left the castle where she was kept away for so long he pronounced his love for her. He promised to keep her safe always and to always look after with love and care. After a while the knight asked the girl to marry him and to be with him forever. Of course she accepted. Then they lived happily ever after. Of course, it has a lot more detail, but I guess that just sums it all up."
I knew that maybe he would think me odd for liking this story so much, but as I looked at him he had a smile on his face showing that he too thought the story sounded good.
"So, should we start reading Rose?" he asked me.
I nodded and began with the first chapter,
"Once upon a time…"
