Sevil Meeting (3)

"Bella, I heard a Duke your father appointed in Helville has been courting you recently!" Anna asked, her eyes sparkling with curiosity, "Is this true?"

Daphne's eyes followed in the direction Anna was looking towards and saw the one girl she did not recognize. The girl named Bella had long curly brown hair, half pulled up with a large red bow that matched the color of her dress.

She blushed and smiled softly, grabbing onto the end of her hair, "Well. . . he has been bringing me flowers. And, we walked together in the garden for three hours last night."

She giggled softly, her eyes glistening as she thought about it. Anna smiled a little awkwardly, regretting asking about it as she sighed and looked away, wondering when someone would court her. There most certainly had to be suitors out there who admired her secretly.
