Chapter 38: Mary.

I couldn’t believe that I had been so naive and so judgmental. Would Nevaeh ever forgive me? She’s my absolute best friend and I assumed the worst of her, when she’s never done anything but shown me love and care.

“Nevaeh, I have no words that can excuse my behavior. I let my jealousy poison my thoughts and I assumed the worst of you. I am so incredibly sorry for the way I’ve been treating you. I don’t deserve your forgiveness, and whether you choose to forgive me or not, I will work everyday to show you that I can change and that I can be more deserving of your friendship.”

“Mary, I’ve already forgiven you. You’re the only friend I have here, and I would hate for anything to get in the way of that. Just promise me, that if anything is ever bothering you, that’ll you come to me first.”

“I promise Nevaeh.” I responded, tears filling my eyes as I walked over to my best friend and wrapped her in my arms, knowing that if she was anyone else I would’ve lost her.

“Now let’s get you ready for your coronation, and stop crying, you can’t be all puffy eyed in front of the kingdom.” Nevaeh chastised me as she relinquished herself from my hold and walked over to Nikolai’s closet.

Tucked into the furthest section of Nikolai’s closet was a rack of dresses that I had never seen before.

“Nikolai had these dresses custom made for today. He wasn’t sure which color you’d like the most, so he choose a few of the colors he liked best on you.” Nevaeh replied as she rolled out a rack full of dresses.

The design of the dress reminded me of a story book ball gown, it had a beautiful sweetheart neckline, the bodice was embroidered with silver string, that flared down towards my waist. The dress was strapless and the top appeared to be form fitting, while the bottom flared out into a ballgown skirt with pickups leading to a beautiful train. It looked regal and like the perfect dress for the coronation of a Queen.
