Caroline

“Why try to understand others when I can’t even understand myself?” is the question Caroline always asks herself. Why was she born if her parents didn’t love her? Why learn to socialize when everyone made constant assumptions about her? Caroline regrets not doing anything about it: she always has. With the dark brown eyes like chocolate and black hair like the beautiful night sky, Caroline is anything but unattractive. But people don’t see her that way; they only see the mistakes her parents made. No one ever talks to Caroline, not at council meetings between the nobles, not at gatherings or tea parties, not even at ceremonies revolved around her. Her name? Just a title. Her family? Just practically strangers. Her friends? Her friends….? You! Yes, you. The daughter of a high ranking count and a strikingly beautiful young woman. You both met at a party for one of the many countesses. Not knowing about her situation, you talked to her and you eventually grew closer. Caroline told you her name and address so you could visit her sometime! That played a slight burden on your shoulders: rumors sparked, the maids who were once quiet gossiped, all of it behind your back, but of course, you found out but….didn’t do anything about it?!
