Planning for the Journey

After hugging for a while, Anastasia pulled away from her husband and asked him, “Shall I ask Tilla to pack my belongings then? How many days will we be traveling for?”

“Mmmm…” Caspian hummed for a while and then answered his wife, “Since we will be traveling via carriage, it will take two days for us to reach the capital of Xanmar from here. So, we will be traveling for around five days.”

“Okay, then.” Anastasia gave a nod and then said with a smile on her face, “I will ask Tilla to pack things accordingly. Oh, by the way, I can bring her along with me, right?”

Caspian shrugged his shoulders and gave a whimsical reply, “If you don’t want to get stuck with me as the only one who can help you get dressed and groomed then you should probably bring her along.”

Anastasia chuckled and replied, “Then I am definitely inviting her as well. You are of no help when it comes to combing my hair.”
