Suffer alone (1)

"And this is where…"

Hazel couldn't listen to what Valerie was telling her because of the pain from the shoes she was wearing. She had been hopeful that the tour would go by fast, but Valerie was walking slowly and speaking on everything that she passed by. From the smallest portrait to all the rooms they walked by.

She was at her wits end with the pain and needed the tour to be over with soon.

"Head maid Valerie," Hazel spoke up. "How much longer will the tour be?"

"There is still much more for you to see before we sit with the queen and then we will need to get you ready for dinner later. Are you not feeling well?" Valerie asked, giving Hazel a look over. "It is important that you finish the tour today so we can move on to your lessons tomorrow. If you could just endure it a little longer.."

"Okay," Hazel replied, taking a deep breath after. It felt like her feet were being stabbed, but she would endure it a little longer.
