A Mother's Worry Part 1
In the dining hall, Gwen didn't really feel much like eating.
"What's the matter, Gwen?" Chef Andre asked.
Gwen turned to her father, "What makes you think that something is wrong?" she asked.
"You're not eating, young lady." King Caradoc observed.
"I'm just not interested in what Pepper has made for tonight's supper, King Caradoc." Gwen answered.
Queen Gwendolyn looked at the inventor, "It is because you are worried about Timothy, is it not?" she asked.
"That is it exactly," Gwen said to Kippernium's queen. "he needs me!"
"I understand, you are a parent with a child in need," Queen Gwendolyn said to Gwen gently. "you must be with him."
"Thank you so much for understanding just how much he needs me." Gwen said to the Queen of Kippernium.
Gwen started off for the knights' sleeping quarters, but Milton grabbed her hand.
"I know how you must be feeling right now," he told Gwen. "after all, I worry about Jane all the same."
Milton then released Gwen's hand.
Gwen raced into the knights' sleeping quarters to find Timothy restlessly tossing & turning in his sleep.
"Stay away from me, or else!" Timothy shouted in his sleep.
"Timmy! Timmy Darling," Gwen called out, shaking her son. "wake up! Please, wake up!"
"All right! You asked for it! Advenientis Spiritus!" Timothy shouted in his sleep, casting a spell at the same time.
A whirling wind sent Gwen flying right into one of the room's walls.
"Ouch! What was that?" Gwen asked.
