Princess Amelia PArt 2

So Amelia got married and happily Ever After. WRONG! It turns out that the man that she married was a robber so he stole everything in the palace and all of the family’s money. So now Amelia lives in a little hut all by herself. But that doesn’t mean that she didn’t make it pretty. She lived in the middle of grassy plains with a trickling creek next to her hut. And there were birds tweeting, flowers dancing, everything was so tranquil; even though she was poor. Every morning she went to the creek to get water and then she had a nice soup from the wild vegetables. She was so happy but she was lonely (and you have to agree that that is the worst thing). Although she had the birds and the monkeys she always found herself sitting under the branches of the big palm alone. So Amelia went into her hut and painted it red with paint made out of wild berries because she thought that would make her more joyful, but it didn’t work.
She found a wild horse and tamed it. That made her much happier. Every morning (after getting water) she tied up her long blond hair and headed to the stable which she made out of papyrus. There he was, the beautiful hazelnut colored pony named Hakanku. Amelia made a saddle and a bridle out of straw for him. First she washed him. Then he dried and she brushed and dusted him. Then she fed him and gave him water. And now the fun part. She talked to him. Amelia always talked to Hakanku for about two hours before she tacked him up. Once she was done taking she got on and rode him past the horizon and beyond what the eye can see. When she got back she washed him again and let him free knowing that he would always come back…
