'Good gracious, did Ann really just tell me about her corsets?' No sisters or experienced brothers to tell him these things, no members of polite society who would chat about these things either. If Johann had been sipping a drink he'd have spurted it. The rest of Ann's tone sounded so carefree and unattached to this world, it was like talking to a visitor from a whole other realm. "The, the forks and things, doesn't everyone know that to begin with? Isn't it just the way it is?"
When the server approached Johann made no mention of the indecent grumble coming from his belly but did request both treats, making the cherry mice a small portion of a trio only. "And my drink is an Earl Grey tea, with-- no, ignore that, peppermint hot chocolate, please. If this is to be my one escape the word is 'frivolous' all the way. And for you, Ann? Oh, this is all one check going to me of course, ma'am," the Asian added to the older waitress.
