Royal Genovian Bedroom
Great. Now I can’t sleep because Nishi is mad at me.
Well, truthfully, it’s also because my sister and all of her friends are out by the pool, laughing and singing, even though every once in a while I hear Mia say, “Shush, you guys. People are trying to sleep!”
But then they just laugh even harder.
I also can’t sleep because when I went to get a drink of water, I saw that the majordomo—who is basically the head of the entire household staff—had slipped a note under my door informing me that while I was at school today, Snowball stole a piece of ham, a stick of butter, and a loaf of fresh-baked bread from the kitchens. One of Chef Bernard’s assistants found the bread later on the tennis court. It had little gnaw marks all over it.
The last part of the note said:
Princess Olivia, Chef Bernard would appreciate it if you would kindly control your dog.
Kindest regards,
Henri, Majordomo
Royal Palace
Genovia
Ugh!!!! What am I going to do???
Although I can understand why Snowball gets bored while I’m gone. None of the other dogs at the palace will play with her—Grandmère’s dog, Rommel, is too busy following her around, and the rest are all bomb-sniffing dogs doing important work for the Royal Genovian Guard.
And what dog wouldn’t get tired of eating dog food? If I had to eat dog food all day, every day, I’d get tired of it, too. Honestly, I think Snowball was trying to make a ham sandwich.
