Emmelyn didn't see Mars all day after lunch. He said he would come back right after he met the king to discuss the royal affairs. However, until dinner time, he still didn't show up.
"Roshan, has His Highness returned?" Emmelyn asked for the nth time that night. The woman paced in the dining room and pouted. She was not used to not having Mars around during dinner.
They already established a routine and she loved their routine. Being cooped up indoors most of the time bored her to death.
She could only bear the boredom by keeping herself occupied with her sewing, or talking to their baby, and waited for him to come back.
She always looked forward to lunchtime and dinner because then she could see him and talked to him about whatever. It was really pleasant.
And they always did that almost without fail for the past three months. Today, was the only time that he was missing from their dining room, and Emmelyn felt really upset.
