Unique

Long ago, there was a prince. Who wasn't like other princes. Not for the way he seems, but the thought in his mind that made him the prince to be.......Unique. He doesn't like princesses...

Long ago, there once was a princess, who lived in a beautiful home with a child, and a handsome husband. But see, this story isn't about that lovely princess. It is about a lonely prince. 3 days til his 18^th birthday and he was forced to marry a girl named Veronica. A princess with a bad temper and platinum blonde hair. Her mother, Queen Claire knew this lonely prince's father. King Victor, a king of a small kingdom. But no matter how small, he had to rule his people. So the king had an idea, to forcefully marry his son to Veronica. Not for the prince's loneliness, but for the fortune that the kingdoms would share. But the prince thought differently. He thought that it wasn't right to marry someone for money. Especially since they are not the type of person to like.

Dear Corazon,

My father is still pushing me to marry this girl. She isn’t really nice and I don't like the way she treats my father. He is just an old man. But whatever shall happen I hope that my father accepts my choice in not marrying this girl.

“Einzigartige!” Ein's father cried. “Where is that boy? He better be ready to meet the queen and her daughter. Einzigartige!” Ein sat up and closed his “Book of Corazons” where he stores all his secret thoughts and treasures and hid it behind a broken brick in the back of his chamber. “Father! I'm inside my room.” I yelled out the door. Then my father came storming through. “Einzigartige! How many times have I told you to get ready? The queen and princess are on their way here for the dinner. You have to talk about the marriage in 3 days. My heart was throbbing. I didn't know if I could hold in how I felt. I was shaking. But I held my feelings too long. “Father?” I whispered. He turned around with a confused look on his face.

“Yes, my son.” he said.

“I don't want to marry this girl.” I said.

“What? Why not? She's pretty and rich.”

“She isn't who I like.”
“Well son, there are other girls.”

“Not girls.” I whimpered. I was shocked that those words dripped out of my mouth. I was frozen at that moment. I felt nothing but the knots tightening in my stomach. The force of them holding my breath. My eyes were locked with my father's. He looked at me with a sad and disappointed look. Then he began to speak....

“What? What do you mean, not girls?” He shot his eyes straight into my eyes. His face looked so serious like he knew exactly what I meant.

“I mean, I don't like girls...” I said slowly, I cannot believe how strong I was just to say something like that. My heart was hurting caused by the face my father made.

“You are speaking nonsense. You like girls. And you are going to love this girl!” He yelled walking out of my bedroom. He was walking with rage and slammed my door behind him and not another word. I dropped to my knees in the middle of my room and started to tear up, not only cause my father is forcing me to this girl but because I don’t think he loves me for who I am.

Dear Corazon,

This is getting way out of hand. My father did not like the way I was acting towards him. But I don't want to lie about who I like and don't like. It's not fair for him to not accept me for the person that I am... What should I do?

The sun was setting and the dinner was almost about to start. I wiped my eyes and looked in the mirror. I knew that I couldn't be this way with my father. I could not be this way with Veronica. I took a deep breath and started packing my clothes and my “Book of Corazons” and snuck out with a sack of clothes and my box of papers to write on. My father has told me stories about the evil forest behind our castle and how there was a spot for things that wanted to be free can live there. I want to live there. That spot that will never be bothered or get complained to about being different. Just somewhere free.

I started my journey. Yet my heart was in pain. I began to write the letter on my bed for my father to read.

Dear father,

I know that you are furious with me but I just want to let you know that

I love you.

~Ein.

I kissed the note and placed it down on my pillow and snuck out of the castle. I had my favorite hood on so no one can notice that I am the prince. When I passed the gate, I headed towards the forest.
