Beautiful Secret

[Ananfal]

"Thank you." She said gratefully around a yawn, covering her mouth while reaching out for the tray. A rub at her still sleepy eyes as she took the tray inside, sagging down as she took a seat. When she was this tired, manners didn't quite matter anymore. Especially in front of a child. "What's your name?" She asked the young girl, stifling another yawn.

 

[Akio]

"I'm Jennifer my lady." She said with a slight blush and a curtsy. She usually wasent under so much attention from a stranger, serving girls usually fell into the background.

She ate quickly, the food doing much to wake her up. Finally able to smile at the young to, she did so. "So Jennifer, child, could you tell me where Sir Garen is? I have business with him, you see." She said, trying to sound formal as though She actually did have business with him. Rather, the legitimate kind of business that didn't involve killing Garen.

 

[Akio]

Jennifer blushed even more at her smile. "Sir Garen is probably in the garden or the training field my lady." She said looking down, a bit ashamed she didn't know the exact answer for the woman.

 

[Ananfal]

"Don't worry about it, child." Rita said softly, smiling gently at Jennifer. "I think I'd like to go to the garden first, if it wouldn't be too much trouble." Then she hesitated, but took a deep breath and plunged forward. "Does Sir Garen have a woman he fancies? A lover perhaps?" She asked a bit too bluntly, wincing.

 

[Akio]

"The gar-gardens? Of course my lady I'll take you there." Nervousness making her stutter. She got up but froze at her question. "Well several woman have come with intentions for air Garrn but he has never said he liked any of them or give them gifts." She said frowning.

Rita nodded her head and smiled gently at the young girl. "Thank you for answering all my questions, they must seem strange to you. Now, no need to be scared, I don't bite!" She giggled softly and motioned with her hand as she stood up. "Please lead me to the gardens, Jennifer, if it's not a bother."
