Story: Ohio Story. Chapter 2: A search party

The next morning, the queen woke up bright and early. “EVERYBODY UP!!!” a 
soldier bellowed from under the window. She walked to her bathroom, to take a 
warm shower. After she came out, she put her red gown on with matching 
stilettos. She walked down the stairs like an angel, her long blonde hair flowing 
behind her. 
A servant scrammed to the stairs, and took her hand. He helped her down the last 
stair, and lifted her to the ground. The queen walked to the dining room where the 
king and an unfriendly looking woman sat. The king was stammering and staring 
at the ground. She walked over to them, and the woman smiled at her. “My name 
is Jessica Albiny. I am a lawyer from the law house down the block.” She said. The 
king continued to stare at the ground as the women started to chat. Suddenly, 
Jessica stood up and said to the king, “tomorrow. Or you’re fired.” She walked out 
of the room, and the king slumped down in his seat. “Fired? So, now you have a 
secret job? And we now keep se-“the queen started to say, but the king 
interrupted her by saying “it’s nothing you need to worry about. I didn't want 
you to be stressed. You have enough to worry about with the baby miss-“he 
stopped, for the queen had let out a long moan. “Well, thanks for reminding me.”
 She said bitterly. He got a sour look on his face, and she sighed. “I’m sorry, but I 
just, well, I don’t know.” She looked as if she was going to cry. He walked over to
 her and wrapped his arms around her. She sniffled and got up. She moved up and
 stepped into the parlor. She sat on the couch, and put her feet up. One of the 
house keeper’s came over to the queen and asked, "is everything alright?".
