บท 237: The ball (3)

"It is all going well," Tobias said, holding Hazel's hand to calm her. "They are all dancing and having a good time. She has outdone herself. Hasn't she?" He asked Sofia.

Sofia nodded her head, agreeing with her brother, but she thought it would be better if they had allowed her to go down to speak to the few children attending the ball. What fun was it to sit here when everyone else was dancing?

Sofia knew she could convince Hazel to let her leave the throne but Tobias was overprotective and did not allow it.

"Until it is over, I cannot conclude that the ball went well. Something can happen before the ball ends. No," Hazel covered her mouth with her hand. "I shouldn't have said that as now something will go wrong. I cannot have them add this to all that they say about me."

"Ignore what they say," Tobias suggested.
