I dress in a nice dress. It's different from the ones I use to wear. One I think the girls overseas wear.
It takes time to adjust.
Later I wait. A step behind the count.
Waiting for them to arrive.
A knock comes. A man opens the door.
And a man, whom I presume is the lord enters. A young wife.
A striking match to the old age of her husband.
And finally two children.
A girl. A boy.
They look no older than six.
We pay our respects to each other.
We eat dinner.
After that he takes the lord to his drawing room.
And I & the rest to my personal parlor.
