Laurel was nervous. It wasn’t as if she hadn’t shared a private meal with Adolph before, but this was the first time they would be alone together for a meal since she woke up. Sarah was beside herself, bustling around to help her get ready as Laurel tried to figure out why she was so nervous.
She hadn’t been this nervous the day they were supposed to get married. Her hands trembled as she fidgeted.
“All done!” Sarah cried and froze seeing how pale Laurel had become.
Sarah worried her lip and placed a hand on her shoulder, “Miss Laurel?”
Laurel looked up then away, “I-I’m fine. I don’t…”
Sarah wrapped her arms around her and pulled her close, “Should I send word that you aren’t feeling well?”
“No,” she said, taking her hand. “I-I’m just… I’m just being silly. I’ll be fine.”
