Seth stood as he waited for Ruby to reply to his question. He did not have a concern with the lady that sat opposite Ruby on her bed.
He had thought to check on the princess and to see the latest with the journey that she had set Anthony on. According to Seth's calculations, Anthony was supposed to be back, so he came to find out if everything was alright.
But that was just an excuse.
Seth had come to see Ruby. He was missing her like she had the key to his happiness.
When he got to the door, he noticed that there was no one outside. After knocking for some minutes, Seth pushed gently at the door and found out that it was open.
Even though Ruby would not be home, Seth was ready to wait for her. He wasn't bothered about it being late or going back home when it was dark.
Seth even saw more clearly in the dark, and his senses were sharper at that time. The nighttime was his favorite time.
