“I really think I should be home,” I apologised, “Perhaps next time?”
“I shall keep you to that sir!” she agreed, “I shall tell Madam when she rises when can we expect the wench?”
I went home and sought Miss Harcourt out, “I have arranged a position with Madame L’oiseaux.” I explained. “My lord, my lord,” Madame asserted, “Are you quite well?”
“Yes, why?” I asked. Pornhat “Entirely as was your intent,” she declared. “Oh you monster!” Miss Harcourt protested, “Why must you treat me so ill!”
“It is the same for all of us,” Madame declared, “For myself I enjoy it,” she smiled at Monique, “But my darling Monique makes it more special do you not my cherry?”
Monique blushed, “Yes Madame,” she agreed and taking up her bowl she scuttled from the room.
