Special Occasion
“Master Hayden is waiting to have dinner with you in his sitting room,” Auntie informed me after poking her head into my art studio.
“Oh, right…it’s dinner time already…” I murmured as I glanced at the clock.
I had been working so hard that I hadn’t realized that so much time had passed by already. Quickly, I got up from my seat before following Auntie out the door.
“You don’t have to walk me there, you know. I can get there just fine by myself,” I told the old woman who seemed persistent on escorting me to Hayden’s room.
“I’m sure you can but if I don’t do this then I don’t know why I’m still employed,” Auntie replied with a grin.
“Well, if you insist…” I replied with a small laugh.
Auntie seemed proud to escort me to Hayden’s room and I gave her the pleasure of doing so. We shared small talks all the way there and I realized how much I missed her company. When we arrived, Auntie opened the door for me even though it wasn’t necessary.
