Amethyst snapped out of her thoughts when she felt a hand on her shoulder Nad heard her name being called.
She looked up and saw Slate standing there.
He actually called her when he entered but didn't receive any reply and so he came close and called her again.
"You're here," she then said standing up.
She looked down at Scarlet and seeing ehr still sleeping she looked back at Slate, "I shall get going then. The child of your caretaker was sick and so I sent her home. I hope you don't mind."
"I don't but what happened?" he asked checking on his sister.
Amethyst started explaining what had happened before bringing out the key.
"I just want to return this. Excuse me then," she placed the key on the bed side table and bowed at him before she started leaving.
"I..."
Slate started making her stop on her tracks.
He then took a deep breath, "Can you listen to me just for a bit?"
She took a deep breath herself before nodding her head.
