Suzie can be found in one of the empty rooms in Percy and Margot's home, surrounded by masses of white material, stitching industriously, humming lightly as she does.
Alistair comes looking for her. He's been concerned for a while about Suzie, and this was the last place he had looked. He was surprised he could still get there, but he wasn't going to question it.
"Suzie?" he says quietly, hoping he isn't going to be much of an intrusion.
Suzie looks up, startled, then beams at him when she sees who it is. She puts down her needle, carefully taking note of where she was, before getting up and kissing his cheek with a smile. "It is good to see you, monsieur. Come, sit down..." She looks around, realising that the few chairs in this room are covered in sewing supplies. "Perhaps we should walk, oui?"
He blushes and laughs. "Perhaps we should, unless you need me to help with the sewing. I haven't walked these grounds for over a year. I can hardly believe it's been that long."
"Oh, no. I thank you for offering, but I want this to be only mine." She smiles softly. It had been her dream for so long, and now it was actually happening.
"Vraiment? In that case, you simply must! I shall show you my garden. The flowers are all growing so prettily now."
