A letter to estelle - II

I just stared at the door. It would not take Tristan long to figure out the keywords in the books that I had given to sir Walter. But would he pay attention to something so small? 

I bit my lip nervously. Why! Why! Why! I palmed my entire face.

Now I wondered why I would even do this! What if he found out? 

I knew I had to talk to estelle. If I had to decide where I had to go with Tristan's proposal, then I had to decide after knowing where Estelle stood. 

She was family. I had to do this for her. 

The door opened and I watched it as I held my breath. 

"Your highness," 

Relief flooded inside Me once I realised that it was Sir Walter. Thank you God. 

I nodded for him to step forward. 

He entered and placed the books that I had asked him over the small table beside my bed.

I glanced back at the door. No one was standing inside but I was sure that they were keeping an ear out for what was happening inside.
