The door slammed shut and she immediately sat straighter in her chair. Somehow keeping her back straight and holding her chin up high make her feel more confident. Because confidence was everything at this moment.
"You are back," was the first thing she said as he entered the dining room and kept his coat in front of her, covering the papers. "I was not expecting you tonight."
He gave her glance and then pulled the chair out to sit in. "Yet you sit here and wait for me."
"I had to." She answered. "how else were we supposed to talk? All for I know is that you have a house hidden somewhere where you have everything that you ever want or need."
"Still taunting me, I see." He smiled. "Have you eaten?"
She huffed and muttered. "My hunger died."
He waited for a bit still looking at her but then smiled, "well I for one, am hungry."
