Marital Problems Of The Duke And The Duchess

(From Demetrius's Perspective)

"Choose one," I said. "Or more. Whatever you want…"

"Can I choose more than one?" Athena asked. 

"Go ahead," I replied. 

She took an apple pudding while I had some strawberry cake. I liked the strawberry flavor the most. 

"Do you want to say something?" I asked when I felt like she wanted to tell me something, but could not. 

Was she scared of me? Well, kids usually got scared of me. When I asked Luc, he said I had the type of face that made others scared of me. But my wife had a different opinion. According to her, I always maintained a cold look on my face. If I did not do so in front of kids, they would not be scared of me anymore. It was not because I had a scary face, but rather because I maintained that kind of look. 

"Um… Her Majesty told me a lot about Your Majesty and said that Your Majesty loves Her Majesty a lot. Is it true?" she asked slowly. 

"Yes, I love her a lot."
