4 Enjoy the show. (1/2)
The two ate their dinner quietly while everyone else had interesting expressions on their faces. Chao was indifferently drinking rose hip and hibiscus tea infused with fresh pomegranate provided by Gladys. Gladys was waiting on her silently on the side with a castella. Furvis found a dog and was tickling it. Lara was playing hopscotch with an old blacksmith from the crowd. Lupine was kissing Fuchsia's cheek, and the crowd was particularly varied.
Some people were shocked, others were embarrassed, and one person got so bored they started a flash mob in the back of the crowd.
The flash mob wore Bluetooth headphones listening to C@ntina 8and*.
When the song ended, they paired up and did the Charl3ston**. ”I don't know why they're dancing, but I'll treat it as a commercial break. When they finish their song, we're getting this show on the road.” Chao looked up at Gladys from her teacup.
At last, the song ended and Gladys' voice boomed. ”The time has come for the traitors. Furvus will come around with sunglasses so please wear them as soon as you get them.”
Furvus walked over with the dog in his arms. ”Why wasn't I told that I would have to do work?” Gladys ignored him and gave him a case filled with sunglasses. Furvus turned to Chao, ”Lady Chao, can I keep this puppy? Pretty please with a glass of sugar?” Chao glanced at him before she finished off her tea and castella.
”Yes, you can have the dog. Gladys, grab his dog and give him a bath while he's handing out sunglasses.”
”Yes Lady Chao.”
”Now, Lupine, Lara, hand me the gloves and the Tear.”

Lupine carried a small, seamless box. Intricate carvings covered the amethyst box. Depictions of Gods, Demons and humans silently rested on the box. Some people in the crowd noticed the buildup of perspiration on her face. Chao also noticed and closed the distance. ”You need more training. You're still at level 6. Don't be flustered though. One more push will allow you to enter the next threshold.” She grabbed the box from Lupine with her right hand while wiping her sweat with a handkerchief in her left hand.
Lupine felt distressed when she noticed it was one of Chao's handkerchiefs and instantaneously calmed down when she felt how gingerly Chao pat her head. ”Don't mind the handkerchief. You can keep it.” She kissed her hand and turned to Lara.
Alarmed, Lara quickly shook her head while gritting her teeth. ”No my Lady.”
”Go walk to the manor with it then.” Lara's face immediately fell and she turned with resignation. ”Yes, Lady Chao.” Chao rolled her eyes and walked over to her snatching the heavy object from the shivering arms. Automatically, Lara fell forward into Chao. With her head on the bosom of Chao, she subconsciously inhaled a lovely scent of pomegranate and volcanic ash.
”My dear, you can speak out and voice your true thoughts. I've already heard them in your mind anyway.” Lara raised her head embarrassed. While she berated herself in her heart for making a fool of herself in front of her idol, Chao kissed her forehead. ”You'll have to forgive me for not doing anymore. As you can see, my hands are full.” With that, she winked at her causing Lara to go weak at the knees.
”The two of you can go to Albus for a check-up and treatment. Gladys and Furvus can stay here with me.” They nodded, summoned a room and left the same way Furvus went earlier.
”Now, everyone has their sunglasses on, yes? Enjoy the show.” Chao curtseyed while the two men bowed. When their heads came up, the men wore blank expressions while Chao wore an expression of extreme focus. Gladys lifted the top of the box while Chao languidly put her hands out from her sides.
