I stood tall, my eyes locked on Lady Aria's, as I criticized her for her lack of progress in learning etiquette. "Lady Aria, I've been teaching this for a week now, and you still can't seem to grasp the basics," I said, my voice firm but controlled. "I've seen servants learn faster than you. It's almost as if you're not even trying."
Her eyes flashed with anger, but I didn't back down. I'd had enough of her laziness and lack of dedication. "I learned everything I needed to know in three days," I continued, my tone dripping with disdain. "Why is it taking you so long to learn something so simple?"
"You're not even trying, Lady Aria," I said, my voice cold and harsh. "You're wasting my time and yours. If you're not going to take this seriously, then maybe you shouldn't be here at all."
