She
Prior to marriage as a child she would be all over the house playing games and getting the best out of her parents. She would spend some time thinking why things are the way they are, mom does most of the talking at home. Dad never seem to get his way out. Dad seems to agree to whatever I say and Mom seems to be the one who has taken the form of a "Watch guard"
Life goes on and She begins to grow out of the cocoon placed by her parents. Parents wished and hoped for a slow transition but were shocked to see the transition just in a day. "My daughter has grown, I need to find a groom". In the mean time She is busy trying to decide what is her best skill lied, where she was less likely to fail and of course lost in the dream world in the hunt of a Prince. So involved in her own world and trying to fit into the life created for her by her parents she would not even realize when she was shipped to a different postal address with a designation of a co-owner. It seems like a different era a life that she thought was ages away and she had much more to achieve in the mean time.
He
The boy famous in the Suburb cause he was always out wandering in the woods. Playing or braking things around. He would never let the neighbors sleep and made sure his mothers blood pressure was always on the verge of exploding. Ya this time around "Dad" seems to have done it again. He is a guy, "Dad" is expected to relate to his needs better or the kid is just to huge physically to be mollified by the mother.
Reasons unknown to him the boy is shipped to a hostel first to get a rank and shine(some thing he would never care or didn't know existed) and then to a foreign land where there seem to be no rules and no time outs. He was the "King". Busy enjoying the new found freedom and imbibing the new way of life, where he had to answer no one and find ways to get out of the hundredth trouble he seemed to have landed himself in while he was asleep. The boy learns to always smile and care about none.
Out of no where a parcel lands at his doorstep and his life seems to have turned on its feet. Everything around him seems to be the same yet nothing is the same. How did that happen?
