One afternoon, Altessa fingered through Bright's bookshelf, looking for her favorite book about morals. As she searched through various covers with hardcovers or gold-encrusted letters, she slowly passed the rows over and over again to see if she had missed anything. During her search, one book caught her eye -- it was titled The Concubine's Laughter.
Curious as to why it was titled with a peculiar name, Altessa selected the book and gently tugged it from its tight confines. Was the book humorous? Altessa had always loved stories that made her laugh. Was it a melodramatic romance? Altessa had always been interested in the yearnings between lovers. Either way curiosity had gotten ahold of her, and she opened the thin cover, scanning her jade-colored eyes across the fine print in the pages.
The story had something to do with a royal family. Altessa wondered if the story was one of those stereotypical and oh, so common fairy tales about a prince looking for his lover and then having a cotillion to search for her. As she went on, she realized that the beginning was dull. To her disapppointment, it seemed boring, but Altessa continued, hoping for a twist of events that would change the story.
Amazingly, Altessa was soon dragged into the plot of the story as she read through the concubine laughing at the signal fires. She understood the title now, and was thrilled with the ending. The ending was terrible for the characters, but Altessa found the universal moral in the tale interesting. When she closed the book with her small hands, Bright suddenly appeared in the room.
"Onii-sama!" gasped Altessa, taking a step back. "You scared me!"
Bright chuckled, and came closer to his bookshelf. "I'm surprised to see you here, Altessa." He noticed the rectangular shape in Altessa's arms and smiled. "What are you reading?"
Altessa showed him the book. "The Concubine's Laughter."
Bright nodded. "I see. I haven't read that book yet."
"Ohhh, but you should,"suggested Altessa.
"All right, Altessa,"said Bright in response, accepting the slender book from his sister. "Just don't spoil the ending for me."
