After Three Years
"Madam, you have to come to see the situation urgently!" the maid shouted, pulling me to witness something.
"What happened? At least let me know so that I could figure it out!" I exclaimed, but no one listened as I followed her outside. I saw protesters rallying against the Duke's family.
"What is this? Who gave you permission to do this?" I asked angrily.
"Who will give permission unless it is us who decide to do this? Are you calling yourself a duchess? You sent our duke to war, and it's been three years since we've gotten no news regarding this!" they shouted.
"I sent the Duke to war?" I questioned.
"Or what? You've been chilling here while the duke has been suffering there. We don't even know if he's alive or not," they accused, making me shout.
"Shut your mouths, or I will rip that tongue of yours!" I threatened.
