We are set for yet another walk of shame after slinging away from duties, that is to look after our guests. It's funny that we spend almost every single day alone in this huge house, recently sharing dinner and all in all the only two major occupants of the house after Frank and Maria. Honestly Frank and Maria are family to me, they feel like so but technically it's Elian and me that are the actual owners of the house.
And it's just the two of us. And we spend every day alone without any major interruptions and of all days. Of all days, we chose the day of the Banquet to do all this. Escape away from the guests.
Twice.
I guess you do need some lack of privacy to realize how much of a blessing the initial privacy you had was. And I guess I needed some bunch of people in the house to realize how much I liked dragging Elian away from the crowd and feeling the delight of having him alone, away from the people.
