DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING!
Dinner was brief, Pierre was very quiet he only spoke when he needed to answer questions. He seemed very content but was roaming in his head was a question- 'did I hurt her or did it hurt her when she saw me?', the question brought more questions and plenty of memories, happy and sad memories. Except one time he shifted his thoughts once everyone seemed to be finishing their dinner, "I've made my decision and I'm staying here in Genovia … I've made the decision earlier this year, but I've been organising it and now I'm here to stay" He said smiling, using the only smile he had inside himself, what they didn't notice was that in shadows someone had heard and rushed off.
After dinner as Mia headed to her suite Charlotte talked to her briefly "Excuse me, your Majesty?"
"Yes, Charlotte"
"I know it's rather unusual of me to ask but can I be excused for the rest of the night?"
"Oh sure, my schedule is still clear … so you can be excused"
"Thank you, Your Majesty" Charlotte said then rushed off.
Mia passed her grandmother and step-grandfather's suite, she knew shouldn't bother them but when she passed the door she turned back and light knocked on the door, "Come in" Clarisse said from the other side of the door. Mia opened the door and hesitated when she entered, she was nervous, she didn't know what she was doing and why she was doing it. She swallowed and looked at her feet tempted to turn back
"Yes, Mia?" Joe said stood up from his chair
"I'm sorry I shouldn't be bothering you" Mia replied
"It's okay Mia you're here now. What can we do for you?" Clarisse said, moving towards the chair next to her husband's chair
"Well I know I shouldn't be meddling into other people's business but I can't help but notice that Uncle Pierre and Charlotte are acting different … very different. Is there something I don't know?"
"Well Mia, I don't know whether we are qualified to tell you" Clarisse said
"I know it's none of my business but like you've said before if there is trouble I'd prefer if it was right under my nose" Mia retorted
"You know it doesn't satisfy me when you use my own words against me" Clarisse said, laughing a bit. Then she invited Mia to sit down in front of her while she and Joe sat down.
"Oh really? It's quite amusing to me" Mia said accepting the seat
"It amuses me too" Joe said smiling, Clarisse rolled her eyes.
"Well I'm not here to mock you, grandma" Mia smiled "I would like to know did Uncle Pierre and Charlotte use to have something? Please I would like to know anything … their beginning, their end"
"Well, Pierre and Charlotte did have something before but as I said before I'm very unqualified to say anything, I don't know their beginning but I definitely know their end …"
