Tepid Bath

“Her Majesty was saying that she was feeling lethargic when I was assisting her in the bath. By the time I helped her to get ready for the day, she was burning with fever.” Martha was so worried that her voice was cracking, and her hands were trembling a little.

“And she was asking for you,” Martha added.

Tilla felt her throat getting dry. She dropped the watering can from her hand. And she hurriedly took the tray from Martha’s hands. “I will take it from here. Thank you for informing me.”

Martha didn’t mind Tilla taking charge even though it wasn’t her shift to look after the Queen yet. Tilla had served the Queen the longest. So, Martha believed that Tilla would be the best person to look after the Queen at the moment.

Tilla didn’t waste any time heading towards the Queen’s chamber.

“I’ll come with you,” Martha shouted from behind.

By the time Martha began following Tilla, in case she needed any assistance, Tilla had already reached quite far away from the garden.
