Bab 92: Apologies

"I can't believe she took off with my pants!" Tidas stated with a dumbfounded expression.

Skye looked to her husband with equal shock. Peggy was surly, but never out-right disrespectful. The two stared at the door leading out into the hallway; expecting the old servant to come bustling back in with a quip, like she always did. With her signature toothy grin, and an apology for her poor jest.

Nearly ten minutes had past before Tidas broke the silence; "I can't believe the old bat actually took off with my clothes!"

"An old bat, am I?" Peggy's voice was deep and threatening; making both Skye and Tidas yelp and jump in unison.

The two whipped around to face Peggy. She'd come in through the closet doorway, via the courtyard; carrying fresh clothes for the couple. She'd stood waiting for several minutes for them to move, but all they'd done was stare at the main doorway.
