As Garret takes both sides of her shoulder Victoria looks up at him. Something about the look in her eye made her worry. They had found the leak that was a good thing...and if it was why did he still have that look on his face? There must be more to the story and she wasn't sure if she really wanted to know or not.
"Hans....I can't believe it...why...what..."
Hans was really the leak? He's been a trusted servant in this house hold for as long as Victoria could remember. What would cause him to do this now? Why was the question and she didn't understand. Didn't he know he'd get caught and that would be the end of his life?
Looking back up at Garret again Victoria could see there was more to what he needed to tell her. It wasn't just Hans? There was someone else in the house hold too? It made her heart start beating extremely fast as she thought about it.
Hearing her mother was in on it too Victoria couldn't help the shocked look on her face. Finding the swing in the dark she walks to it before sitting down. How could...not her own mother. It made her angry her mom would do something so careless and it made her sad that she had been found out because the next step was not one she wanted to think about when it came to the fate of her mother.
"How do you know Hans wasn't lieing to try and save his own neck? I just....I can't believe it Garret. I am going to have ask mother myself. I....He'll kill her if its true."
Taking a bite of her turkey sub Katie places it back down in the basket. The silence had been quite awkward but she didn't know what to say least it be the wrong thing. The other day had been a glimpse of a bad lunch and she didn't want to go through it again.
"Yeah, I should be there still I think."
Katie might be mad at Jason but she wouldn't miss a concert. It had been a while since they had one and she always enjoyed them. Keeping everyone safe, including Jason was important too and she would never turn that away no matter how made she was.
Running a french fry through some ketchup Katie munches on it for a moment before going back for a little more and finishing the fry off. Looking across the table at Jason Katie gives a small smile. She wanted things to be ok again but she wasn't sure how. Everything seemed so confusing now.
