There were eight days left... eight days left till the Wedding and each passing second Wura seemed to try to accept her new fate, she blamed herself for being too weak to break off the engagement.
"Wura dear" called Tessa as she knocked on Wura's door.
"Come in Aunt" said Wura as she looked at the door from her bed.
"Thank you my dear" said Tessa as she opened Wura's door.
"Do you need something Aunt??" asked Wura as she looked at Tessa and she smiled.
"Ahhh well my dear, I was wondering if you had seen my balls of yarn and my needle??" asked Tessa and in that same moment Richard appeared behind Tessa and he looked at Wura and Wura looked back to him.
They had promised each other not to tell Tessa where her balls of yarn where hidden and yet here she was.
"Ahhh well Aunt, I cannot say that I have seen them per se" said Wura as she laughed awkwardly.
"What a shame, I wanted to trying sewing some more" said Tessa as she looked sad.
"But Richie told me that you were the last person to see them" said Tessa as Wura looked at Richard and she glared at him, so much for them being a team, he had decided to place the blame on her.
Richard just looked at Wura with an expression that read "You try lying to her with the way she is" and Wura just sighed.
"That is true Aunt, but I think that Uncle forgot to mention that we both cleaned up the drawing room, and he was also the last person to see them" said Wura as she smiled sweetly at Richard as he glared back at her, but he dropped his glare as soon as Tessa turned to look at him.
"Richie you did not tell me that" she said as she looked at him.
"Well It must have slipped my mind" said Richard.
"Oh well now this is serious, if you both saw them last, then it means that they are lost... or maybe someone took them" said Tessa sadly, as both Wura and Richard turned to look at one another, as much as they did not want to lie to her, it was better this way, Tessa was not the gentle type, she would end up causing a mess, so this was for her own good.
"Aunt do not worry I am sure that you will find them soon" said Wura as she smiled.
"And if I do not, it means that there is a thief in the house!!" said Tessa in alarm, and at that moment Richard face-palmed himself, the imagination of his wife, was simply one word... wild!
"What??" asked Wura.
"No, no Aunt, there is no need to jump to conclusions, there could not possibly be a thief in the house" said Wura as she tried to change Tessa's mind.
"No, my dear, no what else would explain how my sewing kit went missing all of a sudden??" asked Tessa.
"That might just be a coincidence," said Wura.
"There is no such things as coincidences my dear" said Tessa.
"There is only truth and lies" she said and Wura and Richard looked at each other, Wura looked guilty, while Richard kept a straight face.
"I need to alert my brother immediately, there are thieves in his house, this is not done" said Tessa.
"Never have there ever been thieves in the Scot's residence, and if there were, they were made sure to be dealt with severely!" said Tessa angrily.
Wura started feeling bad, if Tessa went along with this, and she told her father, somebody innocent would end up suffering and Wura did not want that.
"Wait, please slow down Aunt" said Wura.
"There is no need to raise an alarm Aunt, maybe your sewing kit is just lost and nothing more" said Wura as she laughed suspiciously.
"No then if it is, it must become unlost right this instant!!" said Tessa as she was not taking this lightly at all, maybe this was due to the nature of her condition, but she seemed for easy to anger in this state.
"Relax my dear, Wura may be right, your sewing kit should appear eventually" said Richard.
"How can you say such Richie??" asked Tessa as she turned to look at him.
"I want my sewing kit and I want it now!!!" said Tessa as she was not ready to wait.
"I am not listening to any of you, I am going to inform my brother right this instant" said Tessa.
"Brother!!!" shouted Tessa.
"Brother!!!" she shouted once again.
"Please calm down Aunt" said Wura as she knew that she and Richard had picked the worst day to anger Tessa like this.
"Wildvine Wura is right, you need to calm down, being angry is not good for you" said Richard as Tessa paid no attention to him, she was seriously upset right now, and nothing could calm her down.
"Wildvine??" called Richard.
"Aunt??" called Wura as Tessa did not reply to either of them.
"My love" called Richard as that seemed to do the trick and it snapped Tessa out of her thoughts.
"My love" he called again as he could see that Tessa was confused and he hugged her.
"You need to relax, calm down" he said as he hugged her tightly, with his voice very calm and soothing, and Tessa relaxed.
"I still want my sewing kit" she said as she sounded like a whining child and Richard laughed.
"We will find it I assure you" said Richard as he smiled and he looked at Wura and Wura nodded.
"What is all the noise about??" asked Alessia as she had a basket in her hand.
"Ahh Alessia, my Aunt is looking for her sewing kit" said Wura as she stood up.
"You mean this sewing Kit??" asked Alessia as she raised the basket in her hand.
"Yes... yes this is the one" said Tessa as she broke out of Richard's hold and she rushed to where Alessia was standing.
"Where did you find it???" asked Tessa as Alessia gave her the basket.
"Well I found it hidden behind one of the unused fireplaces in one of the guestrooms as I was cleaning this morning" said Alessia.
"That is very odd, why in the world would it be found there of all places??" asked Tessa as she seemed to be thinking.
"Yes Aunt that is very odd" said Wura as she laughed sheepishly and Richard looked at her with an expression that read "You could not have found a better hiding place??"
And Wura replied with an expression that read "I had limited options" and Richard sighed.
"Oh thank you, Thank you Alessia, thanks to you I can now continue my sewing" said Tessa as she smiled very brightly.
"You are welcome Lady Tessa" said Alessia as she smiled and Richard glared at her, but she paid no attention to it thinking that maybe he was in one of his bad moods.
Richard was upset, he was sure that he would have been able to coax Tessa, and in the end she would have forgotten about her sewing kit, but to his dismay Alessia just had to come along with the forbidden object.
"I will go now Lady Tessa, I need to finish cleaning" said Alessia.
"Oh alright dear, but Thank you once again" said Tessa as she smiled and Alessia walked away.
"Now that I have found my lost sewing kit, I will proceed with my sewing" said Tessa as she smiled she looked very excited.
"Aunt, why do you not let me help you?" asked Wura as she sighed, she had no other choice if she did not want Tessa to harm herself or create a mess.
"Oh that is a good idea, dear, let us go now" said Tessa as she pulled Wura's arm, and Wura turned back to look at Richard who in turn smiled at her and she shook her head.
