Her personal demon comes out of hiding because he hears her stirring in her sleep.
“What is the matter, Madame?”
“It’s nothing Bruno, back to your space with you now”.
”But Madame “ he implores.
“Really, it’s nothing Bruno. I just had a fright that the mister dug his way out of his grave and found his way home again. Are you sure he’s dead this time?”
”Yes Madame “.
“Very well then, all is good. Goodnight to you, then”.
“Pleasant dreams to you Madame “.
10 minutes later there’s a soft rapping at her bedroom window. Annoyed the lady of the house sits up in bed and stares sternly in Bruno’s direction who has also returned looking quite sheepish now with both hands clasped together.
“Really Bruno?”
Guiltily he looks down, he knows she’s angry.
