Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

Regina was taken aback. She couldn't help but think Lena had lost her marbles. What on earth was she raging about?

Regina was no match for Lena's fiery temper. Under that intense scolding, she didn't dare utter a word of protest. Instead, she quietly downed two glasses of orange juice, one gulp after another. Holding a glass of pomegranate juice, Regina spoke up with trepidation, "Miss Lena, I think I'll pass on the pomegranate juice."

The pomegranates used weren't exactly fresh-they were meant for Josefina's consumption.

Was Josefina's refusal turning into her obligation?

Regina's face was the picture of bitterness as she murmured, "Miss Lena, I'm quite full already."

"You said it was nutritious, didn't you? Refusing to drink it would be quite the snub to me."

Lena's assertiveness left Regina with no room to argue, and so she finished off two glasses of the pomegranate juice.

Lena watched Regina's compliant demeanor with a sense of triumph, her irritation dissipating, leaving her feeling much more relaxed.
