" Why is he still not here yet.. " mumbled Claire in tiredness.
" My lady, It past nine already... you should eat now, if not you will be starving all night... I will ask the maid to heat it again. "
Claire leans on her chair in annoyance. She stares at all the food in front of her and slowly she sighed in disappointment.
" You don't have to, I don't have any appetite anymore. "
Slowly she gets up from her seat and walks towards the stairs in anger.
Arrived at the middle of the stairs, the stairs split up into two ways. One headed to the right-wing of the palace and one headed to the left-wing of the palace. She must turn right to climb up to her room at the right-wing of the palace.
" Claire. "
Claire suddenly stops her walk, look behind her. She's speechless.
" ..who..? "asks Claire in a low voice. She stared at the dark side of the left-wing of the palace, where the voice she heard was coming from.
" .... " no response.
