Samsul was somewhat surprised at the speed of the teen. He hadn't seen Alex move that fast before, and laughed a little as Anastasia did. He assumed that they were laughing for the same reason, and stopped quickly afterwards. He knew a few of the exotic vegetables that were on the plate, and grabbed his fork to pick them up and eat them. He would have liked to know where some of the vegetables came from, but he could wait until Eric made his way to the two of them at a later date. He smiled at his wife and continued to eat, trying to hold himself down from the thoughts about his parents and her talking to one another. "Whenever you like, Anastasia. Both of them have retired from the staff of knights. They have time, and I'm sure that they'd be happy to see and talk to you."
