As he dressed me in the red outfit, he asked for the second hint.

"Do you think that your love, loves you back?" he asked. I was kind of confused, since this didn't really sound like a hint.

"Is this going to be your hint for today?" I asked to make sure.

"Yes, my lord" he replied as he finished tying the bow. He stood straight and waited for my reply.

Sebastian looked down at me, confusion on his features.

"Something they want?" he asked carefully. I paused.

"Yes. But if you want to know what, then you must wait until tomorrow"
