It was a good sight to see that Pierre was honestly thinking of her question. Carlotta found that people answered too quickly, they weren’t always convinced of their answer. Finding the right path for oneself was no mean task. It required a great deal of thought, trial, error and introspection. Indeed, Carlotta knew that was a painful process, too. It was all part of life, whether people accepted it or not. Thus, upon hearing Pierre’s answer, she smiled at him. “It pleases me to hear you say such, Sir Pierre. I’ll be very curious to know where your path takes you in life. And I’m glad I’ve been one of those people you’ve gotten to meet!”
The poor man, she should have made it far more evident that she had merely been teasing him at his statement. “Oh, settling down is only something to do when you’re ready,” she laughed in airy manner, realizing that she felt the same way herself. “There is so much to do and experience in this life to confine myself.” As for the flattering? “Well,” she replied with some mirth in her voice, “I merely am commenting on what I see. I’ll have to see your wooing ability, however, to adequately judge it.” Again, she laughed, “Though worry not, I’m not a harsh critic.”
A hand lifted to tap her chin thoughtfully, “Not too fast, but not too slow. The first thing I would tell you is that, despite the claims of propriety and innocence, all women want in life what men want in life. They have urges, desires and needs. They seek to satisfy them, all you have to do is find out what they are.” As if it were so easy!
