"Ahh you totally ruined it!." cilliya said as she frantically tried to scoop up the dropped tomato soup that lanei had accidentally pushed "i didn't do it on purpose!." Lanei said, giving cilliya an apologizing look. "You will embarrass me in front of lady kreinheard if you're not careful" "but she isn't here right now you are aware of that right?" Zelana said while washing the dirt of the ceramic plates before putting them in the plate rack. "She isn't?" Cilliya asked as she looked out the window which was facing the garden.the bright afternoon sun shining so bright. She could see Elisia sitting in the gazebo gazing at the sight of the distant rows of buildings. The birds flying through the arches of the bridge above the houses below. Again filled with life and joy. "Yeah she went out to meet an important acquaintance. With sir greand"

Cilliya, sighing in relief, looked back to zelana giving her vibrant content smile before looking down again at the mess that was laying on the ground. Sighing before kneeling down as she picked up a towel and began cleaning up. Lanei noticed and gave out a huge sigh before kneeling too to help Cilliya. Cilliya wiped away her sweat as she and Lanei managed to clean up the mess. Giving lanei an appreciative look before hugging her as gratitude the wooden door opened loudly, "jeez did i not say to knock before coming in yalana?" zelana said as she jumped, almost dropping one of the ceramic plates before grabbing it just in time before it could hit the ground. "Well I suppose you did not. Yalana said apathetic as she chuckled sardonically

Zelana, furious about yalana not taking her role seriously, put the plate down she was working on and walked towards yalana wanting to hit some common sense but before she could raise her hand Cilliya held her back grabbing her arm and shaking her head. Before telling her quietly "it's not worth the trouble." Zelana stepped back. Knowing full well that cilliya was right, putting up her hand against her face she sighed and went back to washing the now dry plate. "Oh? You are not going to punish me? Aww. how unpleasant." yalana said as she waved her bright red hair around her face. Mocking zelana. As if she has no self courage. Cilliya could notice yalana grinning as to wanting to provoke zelana even more. Yet Zelana refused to let her inner thoughts win. Clenching her fist zelana almost threw a plate at her but stopped when yalana suddenly left. "Oh i think my dear or dear is calling me. See you later!." yalana said waving goodbye as her hair bobbed up and down again. Her black polished heels clacking against the cold floor. As they all sighed in relief, zelana looked up again looking out of the window, frowning before saying "what a wicked wench of a woman. She always disobeys the king's orders, deceives men and she looks back to anyone. For the love of the immortal goddess she doesn't even glance a little at lanei. She is even the youngest of us four.!" zelana said as she furiously put the plate back down. Cilliya walked over to her wiping away a tear and hugging her before saying. "At Least we got us" Zelana smiling in relief closed the water tap and wrapped the wet towel around her right shoulder. Glancing towards lanei who is happily swaying her feet. Unfazed by the sudden argument. "Oh i wish i was young again" zelana thought silently before looking towards Cilliya. Her brown eyes shining, glittering with innocence. "That's why cilliya and lady kreinheard have such a good bond already." Zelana thought to herself again, realizing that Cilliya was the purest soul one could ever find. "Cilliya? Can we go to the market?" Lanei asked politely, her sweet young voice reverberating through the hanging pots and pans. Cilliya looked towards Lanei who was now wrapping her arms around her stomach indicating that she was hungry. "But we have food here?" Cilliya said, trying to convince Lanei to stay in the palace. Usually in the afternoon the markets are as busy as they could be. Streets filled with people all with one sole purpose. To buy food. Yet amongst those whom want to fill their stomach there will always be crooks who like to snatch up little children. Especially since cloud said that there are numerous cases this week already "but i really want those kranopa." lanei pled. Begging her hand as she fell to her knees and squinted her eyes. Perplexed by lanei's sudden action cilliya frantically tried to reassure lanei. "That please pl- please you are not a beggar.. Lanei.. Please not here. Ok we will go to the market. Let me get clean clothes first" Cilliya said as she tried to pick up Lanei and place her on a seat. Lanei nodded and put up her hands in the air before saying "yay!"
