I saw to Zaira getting familiar with the smithy today. We will need her to start working soon as she have the materials she’ll need, we will need tools it appears. Sooner rather than later. To not mention I will have a large order for her myself now that I stand without armour.
Bishop arrived, asking about the guard’s state. I told him what I can at the moment: we will be patrolling the town again soon enough. But there are other matters to tend to first. The boy appears to want to toss himself into things though, if I know my grandson he’s already getting bored out of his mind. I’ll need to get him working as quick as possible. Before he gets himself into trouble.
As for Zaira, she noticed the home above the smithy. She’s still young, but it appears she will need to pick up hard work early anyway. I’d expected her to move out soon so I let her decide if she wished to stay there or not. It appears she’ll be trying it out. We’ll see about Estelle, she’s been old enough to leave the nest for a while now. But I am uncertain if she wants to or not.
I may have overreacted or I may not have. Passing by the smithy again on my way back I heard yells and went to check. Finding Zaira seated on Bishop on the floor. I know what that boy’s mother says about him and girls damn well, so I parted them. Bishop assures they were only playing though, wrestling. I do remember they did that a lot as kids, but with Bishop it’s better to be safe than sorry. Zaira was mad, but she’ll cool off.
I am uncertain what I think of the children leaving the house. It’s not unexpected and like I haven’t been there before, but with Thomas’ leave I think it may feel empty again for a little while. Still, I think a part of me will feel good about it. Relieved, perhaps. When we had Estelle we were prepared to raise her of course, but we were not prepared for Zaira. Nor was I prepared for Bishop and Lapis, or Thomas’ return home. I don’t mind caring for them, I still will be even when they don’t live in the same house, but it’s nice to get our peace and our space back. To not mention full privacy, Spy and I will enjoy that very much.
