Breakfast arrived right on time, as expected. Breakfast began quietly but soon Milo's father spoke up. "So how has school been Milo?" He asked, curious as to his son's success.<br/><br/>Milo politely swallowed and wiped his mouth before answering. "It's going well, Father. The work isn't too hard, but some of the concepts are difficult." His father raised an eyebrow. "But I'm sure I'll grasp it in no time." Milo added quickly and his fathers face relaxed again. "I'll be studying all day today for the test this Friday."<br/><br/>His father smiled. "Good. I cannot wait for you to finish your schooling so I can hire you at the firm."<br/><br/>With little expression on his face Milo agreed. "Of coarse, Father." Breakfast proceeded quietly. It was rare for the family to delve into deep conversation over meals, often if something needed to be spoken about it was done in the evening after the parents returned from work and retired to the den while dinner was being prepared. Milo finished his breakfast first and waited to be excused by his father. After finally being excused Milo returned to his room, walking by the kitchen and catching a glance at the house keeper. Except for a brief thought about not knowing her name, Milo thought no more of her.
