"How I look is none of your business or whether I am attending the festival or not." She said. "What is important is what I tell you at this very moment."

He eyed her still in awe at this woman who was so unruly.

For his amusement he nodded and let her go on ahead.

"You are free to carry on." He said. "I am listening to you."
