Think Before You Act

~

Anna was heading back up the stairs when Agnes approached her. The maid was already waiting at the top of the stairs when she spotted Anna making her way up. Keeping her head in a bow when Anna stood before her, she asked.

"You seem tired, Milady, I'm done re-adjusting the bed, should I make you something warm to help your system relax a bit?"

Anna kept mute as she looked at the maid. Indeed, she felt tired for some reason, but she had managed to pull it off without letting anyone know about it, so how did the new maid figure it out with just a glance.

Was it her face?

Anna shook her head, politely refusing her kind offer, "I am alright, I had to check out a few arrangements for my wedding, but I never expected that I had to go through a long list, I guess I've over-stressed my mind again. I'll just get some rest."
