Belle sat on a chair while her parents and a few of their friends discussed the revolution. She let her shoulders slump with she stared out the window. In a distance she saw a crowd gathered, she guessed it was gyspsies.
"Belle, what do you think about the war?" Belle turned to see everyone lookiong at her. She looked to her mother, and her mother nodded very slowly.
Belle forced a smile and then replied "Oh, I agree!" As she turned her head back towards the window she muddered to herself "Sure, I agree."
"What as that?" Her mother asked with a serious and strick look upon her face.
"May I go for a breath of fresh air outside?" Belle asked, and with questical looks, she finally got permission and went outside.

Alice was waiting for her Master and Mistress outside when the young woman appeared. She immeditley dropped into a curtsey, her eyes down.
"Can I help you Mademoiselle?" She asked in a near whisper.

Belle turned quickly towards the girl. "No....I get too much of that," She glanced around. The streets nearly desearted except for a few stray cats and a couple horse and buggies. But nothing else really. The sun was getting ready to set and the dinner table and evening meal was being prepared.

Alice blushed at the young womans tone, and rose keeping her eyes on the floor. "As you wish, Mademoiselle."

"Thank you, that is as I wish," Belle replied, not meaning to hurt the maid's feelings. She then began to walked down the street at a steady pace, her arms crossed and her face grim.

Alice gave the girl a startled look. She hesitated, then ran after the girl. "Mademoiselle forgive me, but dinner shall be ready in a short time." She licked her lips, not mentioning how unproper it was for a girl to go off alone.

"Thank you...maybe I'll entertain my guests and my mother and attend. I won't be long, There's no where to go anyways," Belle replied looking down the street a ways, then looking back towards her home.

Alice licked her lips, wondering if she would catch a punishment if she let the girl wander by herself. What was wrong with the girl!? "If you please m'lady..." Alice said.

An idea approached Belle just then. "I will be but a minute!" she announcement and rushed inside. Suprisingly, she was but a minute and when she came back out, she was wearing a denum COLOR blue dress with a white pattern and down the center was a white bodice and under skirt which could be seen-a peasant dress.
"You stay here, if my parents ask where I have gone, please tell them I went down to the church for repentance," Belle said. She then swirled a dark cloak around her shoulders.

Alice stared at the young girl, hardly beileveing what she was seeing, much less hearing. "You wish for me to lie, Mademoiselle?"

"Don't think of it as lying...I'll go to the church and then to...where I'm going and then you won't be lying..." Belle said quickly, trying to convince the girl.
