She stood by the door and watched as Lucas got into a car. The car drove off, vanishing into the distance, and she stared at it till it disappeared from sight. She felt that she and Lucas were heading down very different paths as she watched the car vanish from sight.
She stood there, feeling the wind brush against her, then she returned to the kitchen, washed the dishes, and left for the Main Block's kitchen since she did not know if Lucas would chfor lunch.
Lucas had completely shut her off, and their interaction was so limited that even normal employers would communicate with their servants more often.
"Mrs. Flores, lethelp you with that!" "Is Mr. Lucas out? I heard that he is traveling overseas." Mrs. Flores worked in the Main Block and was more aware of the latest developments.
