He listened politely and chuckled when she had indicated to her swollen stomach.  He nodded when appropriate and took a seat when asked, seeming in no real hurry at all as he let his eyes flow around this place. He showed no real interest in the shop itself, but through observation he noticed it was clean and neat, ordered and kept up. All of this told him about her, and how much she must truely despise being in that state.<br/><br/>"I had not said at all, as I have learned most women know the sorts of tea they like, and I am partial myself to such black teas that make most ladies recoil at the mere thought of it. A nice herbal blend might do well for this morning however, and far less distasteful to my company, I would hope."<br/><br/>He had obviously missed her desire for coffee, else he would have bit his tongue, though such was the fate of most every male, no matter what race or demeanor, to stick his foot in his mouth when in the presence of a woman, and be utterly unaware. His smile told of his own ignorance as he studied upon her condition, seeming to enjoy being around her, though most would try to avoid someone as cranky as the woman.<br/><br/>"Perchance I might offer you a thought, and give you some consideration. I once met a girl who bore no children, no matter how...eager... her efforts. you can also believe me when I say, she did not confine her efforts to her husbands bedchamber, if you catch my meaning. Suffice to say she had a ruined reputation before too very long had passed, and before she was tried as a witch, she had attempted to steal a child from one of her neighbors. Even on the stand all she could do was scream for her child, sobbing and broken. You... you never will know that pain... you will never suffer as she did, and in that you are blessed, my dear. I know stories as this are told every day, but do stop and really consider. In spite of the minor inconvenience, you are blessed and blessed once more."<br/><br/>He paused after his words, not wanting to offend her, having no desire to imply she was ungracious, only reminding her of how fortunate she was, relative to others. He would smile and remain seated, though his smile seemed reflective, the story obviously true to some degree, or he was a fine actor to display such a subtle response after the story... with one such as him there was no means to be sure.
