Paige came mainly to see if I was doing fine and soon was sent off to sleep by the strict Duke, who at this point seemed troubled by the poor girl's sensible eyes... And nose.

The Duke and I watched her leave baffled at the scene and as if thinking the same, our gazes turned to meet each other's and...
"Hahaha. That child cried her eyes out. Poor soul..."
'Right?! She should–'
"She should have waited to hear everything before jumping to conclusions, haha."
'That! I thought the same, Mister!'
We were in synchrony as always. And had fun with it.
