The Inevitable Fight
Soledad was busy opening the cupboard, her hands fumbling around, looking here and there. Looking at his sweaty face, it could be seen that he was enthusiastic at the moment.
Mother, who had been paying attention, finally couldn't resist asking.
"Soledad, what are you looking for?" asked his mother, her hand still holding the duster to clean dusty utensils.
"Did you see Jean's slingshot, Mother?"
"Slingshot? What for?"
"For shooting birds, Duke Robert's house must be plenty."
"No need to shoot birds, what's the point?"
"To look after, mother. What else do you do?
"Last year I also kept it, but let it go too."
"Yeah, that's okay, right?"
"That's Jean's slingshot near your hand. If it was a snake you could peg it," said Mother as she walked into the kitchen.
Soledad laughed stupidly, "I won't let go this time," she thought. But in the end it was his conscience that spoke.
He stopped by Rachel's house, intending to take her with him to Duke Robert's palace to catch birds. But Rachel can't, she practices piano with her father. If you want to invite Stuart or Rowan, at this hour they will definitely be helping their parents.
"So I have to be alone?" In his mind, even though it wasn't really fun being alone, he was already enthusiastic and passionate, it felt like there was no way he could turn back now.
The clock showed 2 in the afternoon, usually at this time her mother would have returned home to work. His mother had worked as a servant in this palace for a long time, even before he was born.
"Soledad? Why are you standing there?" Asked Mr Dorough, one of the gardeners at this palace.
"Can I come in, Mr Dorough?"
"Yes, you can, usually you just go straight in without asking first. Where's your mother?"
"Still in home!"
"Oh, come on in. But don't make a fuss, because the Duchess is sleeping!"
"Yes, Mr Dorough!"
Soledad immediately ran to the back yard to look for her target birds. Just as he expected, there were dozens of birds perched on the roof of this house.
His eyes narrowed, trying to focus on aiming at the target. One of the targets was locked, a bird that seemed careless perched on the sidelines of the second floor window.
"Soft target!" he thought.
"Stay there! Don't move, one, two, no-"
"Hey commoner!"
Preekkk...
A pebble shot shot quickly towards the target.
Duukkk...
The shot hit the wall, the target escaped.
"What are you doing here ?" asked the boy. Yes, who else if not Duchess Margareth's favorite grandson. Soledad forgot something important, the child lives in this house.
Reluctantly, he turned to the boy standing on the second floor balcony. He looked at her for a few seconds just showing a face full of hatred, after that he decided to take steps to leave the yard.
"Hey wait, where are you going?" he shouted from the second floor. Seeing Soledad leaving, the boy immediately ran down the stairs after Soledad.
Soledad arrived in front of the house fence, the boy quickly chased after her to find out what Soledad had just done at her house.
"Hey commoner, don't leave yet. If you leave I will complain to my grandmother!" He shouted, Soledad's steps immediately stopped.
The child smiled lyrically, he could already guess that Soledad was afraid of her grandmother.
"I want to go home!" Soledad said curtly, her lips pouted and her eyebrows even knit together.
"What are you doing here? You definitely want to steal, right?" The boy asked, he stood in front of Soledad in a haughty manner. For him, it's time to take revenge for the incident he experienced this morning at school.
"I didn't steal!"
"If you're not stealing, then what are you doing? It's useless not wanting to admit it, I saw you standing behind the house throwing something, quickly tell me what you stole-"
"Shut up!" Soledad shouted, the boy was shocked, not believing that he had just been shouted at.
"What did you say? I'll rat you out!" He said confusedly. Her white face immediately turned red. He felt insulted because in his entire life no one had ever spoken loudly to him.
"Go ahead, just say it. I'm not afraid, you rich young master doesn't know your world!"
"Shut up...you commoner! How dare you insult me like that...!"
"Noisy, you stupid boy!" Soledad shouted, pushing the child as hard as she could.
The young master, who had no preparation, immediately fell on his back on the ground. His face was getting redder, he really couldn't believe all this. Insulted and beaten in a short time.
The young master immediately got up, full of emotion he pulled Soledad's hair, as if he didn't care that it was a girl he was facing.
"Let go, you shameless rich man...!"
"Stop insulting me crazy woman!" shouted the young master. The fight started.
They both hit each other, grabbed, kicked and scratched each other. I don't know what demon possessed these two children.
The noise they created was even louder than the sound of two cats fighting over a female cat. Everyone in the house immediately ran out when they heard the commotion. At the same time, Mrs. Soledad, who had just arrived in front of the fence, was shocked to see her daughter fighting with her employer's grandson.
