CHAPTER SEVEN
There was a knock on Attila’s window.
She opened the door to find Lamos outside.
“I’ve brought hot water, but the gentleman says you are not to hurry as he’s gone swimming in the river.”
Attila smiled.
She thought it was just like Gesa to take advantage of the nearby river and so she did not dress herself until she heard him return on the other side of the wooden wall.
She wanted to see him and be with him as they had been last night.
Lamos had laid their breakfast out in the same place where they had eaten dinner and as Attila walked over she saw Gesa come round the corner of the carriage.
She waited for him and when he reached her it was impossible to do anything but gaze into each others’ eyes.
“You are even lovelier,” he sighed, “than you were last night.”
