You First

[Why has Anthony come to see Seth?], Ruby thought. The fact that she did not know about the visit gave her an eerie feeling. Yes, she knew that he would not have any bad plan towards her, but it still bugged her mind that she was unaware of this visit.

Seth looked at Ruby and saw that she did not know about Anthony being here. He looked at the maid and said; "That will be all, right?", he asked with a sarcastic look on his face. He hoped... really hoped that this was going to be the last message that this maid had for him.

"Yes, My Prince", she replied with her head bowed. "Should I tell him to come up to your chambers?"

[Is this girl stupid or is she trying so hard to be?], Seth thought. He would have asked her that question, but Ruby was here. He took a deep breath and said; "No. Please, no. I will go to see him soon. Tell him to wait for me", Seth said as he held the bridge of his nose.

The maid bent her knees and walked out of the prince's chambers.
