Afterwards, he's been a gentleman and helped me with the food preparation and other chores. Even helped me find an introduction at the tailors so I may take work there. [ FLUSTERED SQUIRMING. ] Then last night at the party, he made it clear he still... desired me. Then we ah... we kissed. I was in the kitchen, just trying to make dinner. Then I realised we were in the kitchen, and anyone could see - so I ran away before anything else happened.
