"Thank you", she said, truly thankful for the reassurance.
As he mentioned the fact that they were getting closer to the destination, Giulie realized perhaps abit too late that she wouldn't be able to explain her current situation. Would her father accept the fact that she had brought someone...
"That sounds pretty exciting", Giulie confessed, looking up to see the castle wasn't so far away anymore, "I mean, I don't go out much, so it seems like an enriching experience".
After noticing what she had just said, she blushed, seriously hoping the man wouldn't laugh at her. "Ah, forgive me...
"Oh, I'm... sorry", she replied before even thinking much about it. But that was probably the one thing he didn't want to head if he talked about it, right? He sure didn't want anybody to pity him or anything like that.
She thought back to her own parents, how their marriage was slowly falling...

"Well, I'm Princess Giulie Anna. You can call me Giulie", she answered politely, getting up and bowing as well. "It's...
She giggled when he said "m'lady", she always thought that sounded really funny, but she listened to everything he had to say, saying a small "sorry" before he continued.
"By all means", she replied, actually very interested in the tales of someone who had seen and learnt so much, "tell me...
"I don't really know", she replied honestly, "Maybe I can tell since I'm used to what my people look like, but to be honest it was more of a gut feeling".
She still didn't know what to expect. He did say he meant no harm, but how believable was that? She still knew nothing about him.
"I've...
Giulie had been stuck in the library since the very beginning of the morning, studying with almost no breaks except when necessary. After a while, she had gotten so stressed with it all that she thought anyhting would be better than that. She missed her piano, she missed her bedroom. Yes, maybe...
