Miss Patty, we are waiting for you tomorrow in the castle courtyard, we will announce who will be the creator of the portrait of prince Terry, said the soldier who accompanies the prince.
The next morning Patty went very nervous to the castle, when she arrived she saw a great number of people in the courtyard of the castle.
Why so many people? she asked one of the guards. Miss, they are all aspirants to create the prince’s painting.
Patty was surprised and her magic mind, don’t worry, we will be the best ones, we will create that painting.
Ladies and gentlemen! On behalf of the prince we thank you for being here, today we are going to choose the creator of the prince’s painting. This person must have the qualities of creativity, beauty and magic in his hands, he must have a unique talent.
Everyone was surprised and said, “I think I’ve got it, I’m the one, I won!
Go to your homes, in the crack of your door you will find an envelope with three photos that will go in the picture plus a phrase “You are”.
Go and come back in an hour. All of them ran to their houses, Patty waited more calmly and walked out of the courtyard, when she was at the exit door she felt that someone was watching her, she turned slowly and saw on the balcony of the castle the prince looking at her attentively. They both looked at each other and blushed.
Patty could not hold the look, she became very nervous and ran out of the castle.
When she arrived at her house, she looked for the envelope at her door and found it quickly.
She opened it and was very surprised to see the pictures: the first one was of the prince, the second one was of Patty, a picture taken painting in her backyard and the third picture was of a big wedding dress. Nervously she looked for the phrase and could read “You are…. The chosen one”.
Patty hurriedly left her house towards the castle, when she arrived she saw everyone very nervous saying “I have the pictures and the phrase, I am the chosen one! I have it too! I have it too! Patty could not make sense of the envelopes, they all had pictures and the phrase.
The bells rang and from the balcony of the castle came out the prince. Everyone was silent waiting for the prince to speak.
Hello everyone, thank you for being here on this very special day for me. Everyone looked at each other in surprise, whispering to each other.
Yes my people, today is very special for me. Today I will meet my princess that I will marry for eternity.
Everyone applauded, Patty, surprised and nervous, shed some tears of happiness and her mind told her “My dear Patty, you are thinking the same as me”, it can’t be, I don’t think it’s me.
The prince held up three photos and the phrase and said: everyone who has these photos and phrase will be the creators of a painting for me.
The pictures were the same as everyone had, except Patty. The phrase was “You are”. All of you were selected to create a picture, but I want to tell you that there is one person who was not chosen, that person has in her hands three pictures that are mine, my princess and a wedding dress. In addition, she has a phrase that says “You are…. The chosen one”.
Everyone was surprised and looked among all the women in attendance to see who had those photos and phrases.
The prince with a smile turned his gaze to Patty and said: My dear and beloved Patty, today here with everyone present I want to ask you to marry me, I want you to be my princess for life.
Patty could not believe it and from happiness she fainted in the middle of the courtyard. Everything was dark and her mind told her, “Patty it’s time to wake up, it’s morning”. Patty opened her eyes and saw that it was all a beautiful dream, she was at home, she was very sad, she couldn’t believe it.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door of her house, Patty wiped her tears, she opened the door and she could see prince Terry next to the same soldier.
“Miss Patty we are waiting for you tomorrow in the courtyard of the castle, we will announce who will be the creator or creator of the portrait of prince Terry, said the soldier accompanying the prince”.
It was the same thing that happened the day before, “This is real my dear Patty, and she laughed” she looked at them both carefully and with a big smile she said, “I’ll be there!
