*Kingsley*
I have never known the days to pass so slowly. They are always filled with reviewing my ventures, analyzing my investments, researching new opportunities, seeing to my duties in the House of Alpha, discussing needed changes to the law, drafting bills to bring before Parliament, holding meetings with businessmen, and any number of other tasks. My evenings are seldom free to do as I please. Assemblies, dinners, or the occasional lecture graced my time. When nothing is pressing, I will visit my club or spend time with the members of the Hand. Busy, always busy, with the hours rushing past like a locomotive.
So it makes no sense whatsoever that now the minutes has dragged along, ever since my mother had proposed or proposed, more like insisted I accompany Pettifur to a ball.
