He really is too kind for his own good..." Her voice trailed off at that last word and she couldn't help but wipe a growing tear from her eye. How pathetic of her to get upset over something as silly as this...yes! Yes, this was all just silly!

"Amy! Your sleeve!"

She grabbed the other maid's arm and gently led her to the bathroom. "Be glad the Master didn't see this! Otherwise he would have....would have...helped you." She paused mid-stride as memories of the past began to overload her senses and her perception. So much was the reaction to it all, that she let Amy's arm drop and stared at the bathroom mirror.
