" do not let daphne or mama hear you complain too loudly. " the younger bridgerton could not help but take the opportunity to continue to tease francesca, " after all, it is not very ladylike and will surely chase away any potential suitors. " they both knew that hyacinth was merely jesting as if anyone was to complain regularly or be unladylike, it was her.
brown eyes go wide at the mention of their mother, and basically their second mother if she thinks about it. that's the last thing either of them want to encounter. "well, maybe next time they will listen if i say the shoes they picked out are not for me, rather for them." she could have sworn her sister wore the same style seasons ago. "any potential suitors don't have aching feet, i'm sure."
❝ there must be something in the rocks or the water here, ❞ narae says, eyeing the pebble between her thumb and forefinger with suspicion. ❝ they don't skip as well as those back home. either that, or i'm losing my touch. ❞
"it is surely the water here," francesca says firmly, even though she has no grounds to make such a statement. she's never even attempted to skip rocks before. "i can't recall when someone has been successful with it."
the girl slowed, startled by the man for just a second. "oh my, thank you," she says, reaching for the small handkerchief that must have fallen from. "i'm not even sure how i managed to do that." francesca lets out a laugh, though she can't help but to feel embarrassed.
gareth smiled ❝i would know you are bridgerton without an introduction❞ he explained ❝you look exactly like hyacinth.❞ he had become acquainted with the youngest daughter, and while they each had a unique look, there was no doubt they were related.
francesca laughs politely at the man's words, knowing hyacinth surely has made her own reputation in the ton. "none of us really need introductions, do we?' the bridgertons were always known, and for francesca, it's always been a blessing and a curse for her. "i'm sure you'll find hyacinth a bit more outgoing than i." as well as most of her siblings too.

❝what? no embrace for your favorite and most handsome brother?❞ he teased his younger sister. colin had just gotten back from a trip, and while most of the family was out, he saw frannie in the drawing room.
the history book is long forgotten as francesca hears the familiar voice. "colin!" she says, her excitement echoing in the drawing room, and undoubtedly, feeding her brother's ego. she crosses the room in record steps before embracing her brother. "when did you return?"
francesca huffs, caramel bangs flying as she does so. "it is these ridiculous shoes," she begins, lips pursed together in distaste. "i have been in pain all day because of them."
"dear sister," francesca begins, a mischievous glint in her eyes that only can be seen by her family. "i have to save room for others. what if someone else wants to have the pleasure of your presence?"

francesca bridgerton was born as francesca cardenas into a wealthy family in mexico before they moved to england. to their surprise, they were met with welcome arms, especially from the bridgerton family. she was young when they moved to england, and francesca doesn’t remember much from her home country.
death tw / but when francesca was only four years old in england, her parents died in a tragic accident. having no other family in england, and none back home, the bridgertons decided to take her in. they treated her as her own, and she fit in with them as if she was from their family all along.
however, that didn’t mean that other people didn’t whisper about her. they would always make sure she couldn’t hear their entire conversation, but as she grew older and went out into society, she slowly retreated farther into her shell and became less outgoing to those she wasn’t close to.
but then a few seasons ago, francesca got really close to one suitor who managed to bring her out of her shell. she thought it was love at first sight, something that she was convinced was only in fairy tales, but they managed to get past all her barriers and walls. but for reasons, the engagement fell through, leaving francesca heartbroken and rebuilding her walls once again.
but she still isn’t sure whether or not she will reenter during the season, but one of the goals she has for herself is that she does branch out a bit more. too often, she is a wallflower at parties and social events, and she knows that she needs to branch out and befriend other people in the ton.
