"Then it is a very good day, for we are pleased all around," I said, chuckling.

"Indeed," I said, sighing. "Indeed."
It was getting late, and I knew I would have to return to Valerian soon, but I was reluctant to leave my new friend. "Can I help you with anything before I go?" I asked. "Dishes? Sweeping? Standing and looking pretty?"

Laughing, I told her, "The only one of those I would allow you is standing and looking pretty. You have done me enough kindness by joining me for lunch and brightening my day."
My head assistant came over and with a polite bow whispered something in my ear. I nodded and told him I would be right there.
"Unfortunately, duty calls and I have to go see to a vendor whose wares were less than promised," I said, rising and offering her my arm. "I didn't notice a carriage following you, may I offer you mine for the trip back to Valerian? I would hate to think of you alone in the growing dark."

"You're very kind," I said, rising and taking his arm. "Thank you for the ride."

"It is my pleasure," I said, as I walked her out to the front. I signaled for my carriage and as it rolled up, I turned to face her.
"It has been an absolute delight meeting you Avrielle," I said, bowing and kissing her hand. "I hope to see you very soon."

"Likewise," I said, curtseying and blushing slightly. "I am sure I will see you soon, and if I don't, I will make it so I see you soon." I laughed. "Valerian isn't that far a walk."

"Very true," I agreed.
The carriage stopped and the door opened. I handed her up into it and gave my driver her destination.
"Be well, Avrielle," I said as the door closed.

"You too," I said. "Goodbye!"
I waved as the carriage pulled away.

Smiling, I watched the carriage pull away and then returned inside to tend to business.
