With things seemingly calmed down, the tea party became quite normal. The other girls got up the nerve to speak and were now happily chatting away. Even Sophie had loosened up a bit and was chatting with them. But what I found strange was the other girls were mainly chatting with Sophie and only answering questions with everyone else. I guess it is because Sophie seemed like the gentle one out of our group.
We were about an hour into the tea party when Adel's maid came over with a document in her hand. "Princess, while going through the files. I saw that you missed one of the documents. I need your signature in order to send them off."
"Oh my! How could I be so silly." Adel took the document and began patting her body as if she was looking for something and then looked at the maid. "Quill?"
