Part 3: Preparing Tea

---> Abigail and Albert went to the kitchen to prepare tea. Albert decided to engage a conversation. Why do I have a feeling this will go wrong?

"So. Abigail, how old are you?"

---> While Abigail was filling the tea pot, she replied.

"28. Why?"

"You look 10 years younger."

"How about you? How old are you?"

"25."

"Seems like I'm older."

"I mean, it's not a competition on who's born first."

"You're right there."

---> While they were waiting for the tea to boil, they were getting along by asking each other questions, possibly to know more from each other.

*Albert: So, why become a nurse?

*Abigail: Why become an astrophysicist?

*Albert: Well, because I wanted to become one. I like heavenly bodies and especially stars.

*Abigail: Ah.

---> This went on for minutes until the tea pot eventually boiled.

"May you please get the mugs there?"

"Sure."

---> They continue questioning each other while they prepare the tea.

"Albert, you're 25, correct?"

"Yes, why?"

"You look too old for a 25 year old."

"Excuse me?"

---> Abigail chuckles softly because she knows she offended Albert. He steps a little closer,

"What did you say to me?"

"You heard me." Said Abigail smirking.

"Doesn't mean your older doesn't mean you get to tease me like that."

Abigail got a little too close to Albert,
"Ohh~ but I can."

Meanwhile, Stephen heard the doorbell ring.

"I'll go get it, wait for me."

---> Stephen gets the door. It was Francis and Catherine.

*Catherine: We're back!!

*Francis: Good day.

*Stephen: Come inside.

*Catherine: Where's brother?

*Stephen: In the kitchen. Just go straight and you'll see the scullery.

"But still..."

"Still what? I can't tease someone?"

"I'm not that old!"

"You kind of are."

"Coming from the 500 year old herself."

---> From that sentence, we have witness war between Albert and Abigail. Abigail eventually got very close,

"Brother?" Said Catherine.

---> Both froze.

"Oh, is that your sister?" Abigail questioned.
