"Athy wants tea with Oppa." The maids then called Lucas to the princess's palace, and they had tea in the garden near the Ruby Palace. A blanket was placed under the huge oak tree.

"The flowers look so good on you Oppa." Athanasia said as she placed a flower crown on Lucas's head and started arranging his long, beautiful hair.

She then said, "Athy likes Oppa. Athy feels like she has a sister." She said as she brushes his hair. Both Felix, the Maids, and Lillian laugh lightly at what the princess said.

Lucas then whispered to her, " I just came here to get off work and relax." He then sip his milk.

A maid then noticed something and said, "Master Lucas's etiquette is very good."

Lillian then said, "yes now that you mention it. He does have good manners."

Lucas then looked at them with his big ruby like eyes and said, "did I do something wrong? I'm sorry."

Arrows went straight to the ladies' heart and they said. "No, nothing's wrong young master Lucas. Your lovely."

Lillian then said, "maybe you can join the princess's etiquette lesson tomorrow."

"Etiquette lesson why?" Lucas ask.

Lillian then said, "so the princess can have tea with you again tomorrow. You could be the princess's partner. What do you say?"

"Alright, I'll try."

"Perfect."

The Next Day

Etiquette Class

Countess Eloise arrived at the palace and was greeted by the princess, Lucas, Lillian, and Felix.

"It's good to see you again Lady Eloise." The princess said as she curtsies.

"Well done princess. Oh, my who is this?" She said as she stared at Lucas.

"I'm Lucas, and I'll be joying you today." He said as he gave her a proper greeting.

The countess looked down on Lucas before say, "will let's get inside then."

As they went inside and went over to the lounge, the maids prepared tea, milk and snacks. The countess then said, "let start now princess." Athanasia did the basic seating and standing.

Then the countess then said, " now let's try greeting one another. Young master you stand here, princess you stand there. Now say hello."

"It's a pleasure to meet you, my lord

"It's a pleasure to meet you, my lord." The princess said as she gave a perfect curtsy with her white dress with pink flowers.

"Perfect princess." the teacher said.

"The honors mine your highness." Lucas said as he put his left leg behind his right and his left arm behind his back and his right hand on his chest.

"Oh, my that was excellent."

"Thank you, mam." Lucas said.

"Now escort the princess to the table." Lucas then held out his hand and the princess accepted it. They then walked over to the table where the tea was, and Lucas pulled the chair for Athanasia.

"Thank you Oppa."

"You're welcome." He then took his seat properly. They then waited as the maids pour the milk. Both took the teacup and saucer, inhaled and sip. They then proceeded to the cakes, they both took the fork and took a small amount of cake with each bite. When they were done, they wipe their mouths with a napkin. Lucas stood up first, went over to Athanasia's side, took her hand and bowed.

The countess who remained speechless the whole time clapped her hands. "Bravo! Both of you were perfect."

"Thank you." They said in unison

"I think I'm satisfied for today. Both of you did a good job. "Countess Eloise then turn to Lucas and ask, "boy how old are you?"

"Four."

"Oh, my both of you are still so young to be taking lessons, but you're doing much better than any of the eight- to 13-year-olds I have taught. His majesty will be pleased about this. Especially in you princess."

"It's because you taught me teacher." Athanasia said with a smile.

Lillian knocked and came through the door and said, " Lady Eloise, your carriage is waiting."

"Ah, yes thank you miss Lillian."

The princess and Lucas send her off and wave good-bye. "Don't forget to practice princess."

"Bye"

Lucas turned to Athanasia and said, "the only thing good in that tea party was the cake."

"You think so." (yawn)

"Princess, it's time for your afternoon nap."

"Yes, Lily."

Lucas then said as he left, "I think I'll take a nap too. I'll see you later." (gone)
