It took another week for Alexander's business to be finished in Moskva, and once they were all done, he returned back to St. Petersburg. It was a hassle for Alexander. Once his personal aircraft is built and the airport large enough to accommodate it, his travel time between the two great cities of Ruthenia will be reduced.
In the Winter Palace, Alexander and Sophie were walking around the palace garden with their hands intertwined. They had been doing this ever since Alex returned from his business trip. He knew the importance of balancing work and family life, so this arrangement was good for both parties. In the center of the garden, there was a table set up with small cakes, sandwiches, cookies, and coffee. The couple sat at one end of the table.
A light breeze blew through the garden as the sun rose higher above the horizon.
