"Fabian, my dear, I heard that you need someone to smuggle your sister to West Matzovia," Aunt Jana broached the topic in a low voice.
"Yes, Aunt Jana. Forgive me for not informing you earlier about this, and you have come this far to take her to your place too," Fabian said with regret.
"Actually, I might be able to help with that. Louis often travels to West Matzovia for work. The officers guarding the borders know him because he passed through them frequently. Wouldn't it be safer if Yohana were to take Louis' wagon instead of someone else's?"

Aunt Jana clasped Fabian's delicate jaw in her palm. She craned her neck to look into Fabian's eyes and said, "My dear, do you think he'll say no to my request?"
