"I never really treated my servants as... servants. They were all very kind people. I had the same maid ever since I was born. Actually, she delivered me. She was my teacher as well. My parents made sure to get an educated woman to take care of me." Lucy blushed as Jude rubbed her hand. "She drew me bathes, she helped me pick out my clothes. If I let her, she would clean my room. I use to try to give her my toys, but she wouldn't take them." Lucy laughed, then she realised she had begun to caress Jude's hand as well.

"I understand if they don't want me to stay," she said and nodded. "I know that they might feel uncomfortable having someone around that they barely know. I know that it might also be because I'm a woman and you clearly don't have much of those around. I wouldn't want to start any trouble. I'm not a bad person, I can be useful. I can prove myself to them and to you. I promise. I'll mind my own business, I won't snoop or try to control anyone. I'll keep to myself." her eyes looked in to his, she couldn't turn away.

"I have to tell you something," she whispered. She didn't want anyone else to hear, even though she knew that no one could. "You might not want me around when I tell you. You might even laugh and think that I'm lying. You might think that I'm insane."
