At the Antioch estate - APDAF - 02-19-2014
(//This is between me and Big_B only)
Sir William was exited for the future meeting of Ensign Anthony Robson and his youngest daughter Juliet.
"I do hope this works." He said to himself as he directed the staff to polish the marble and other expensive items.
Juliet on the other hand was nervous.
"Father do we really have to do this... what if he doesn't like me?" she was wearing a light blue floor length dress with a pink bow on the back her light brown hair was tied into a plat.
"Oh he will trust me..." He kissed her forehead.
"But if he doesn't then what..." She started to get upset.
The staff was starting to mutter.
"Juliet Mary Victoria Antioch, he will like as he also has issues with shyness"
Juliet squirmed for a moment then relaxed.
"Does he?"
"Aye he does..."
They was interrupted by George making his way to his ship, cigar in mouth.
"Juliet, Father." He nods as he passes them.
"George wait." Juliet ran up and hugged him.
"Don't you love your baby sister?" She said as she hugged him tighter.
"Juliet I haven't got the time, Wolfgang is missing so Helga is upset and I don't want her." He said rather too sternly.
"Your not the playful big brother I once knew..."
"We all must grow up... even you" He said as he broke from her grasp and lit another cigar as the one he had burnt out and dropped on the floor.
"George... would you do that if Ensign Robson was here?" William said as staff cleaned up the mess George had left.
"Father I have more important issues." George said as he grabbed his greatcoat.
"So that makes you..." William tried to get some words in but George left too quickly.
"Father... when will he get here?"
"Soon I..." George walked back in and hanged his greatcoat back up.
"Ensign Robson has arrived, I guess that my heavily pregnant wife will have to wait um..." George said as the staff quickly finished then left before Ensign Robson arrived.

A shuttle lands infront of the Antioch estate and Anthony steps out of it. He is wearing his formal Bretonia Armed Forces uniform, his black short hair is slicked back and in his hands he is holding a bouquet of flowers.
He walks up the front yard and looks nervously around. Thoughts starts filling his head
"How did i got myself into this?.... What if i say something wrong?.... What if they dont like me?.... How should I introduce myself?"
He is standing infront of the entrance door and stares at the doorbell. The bouquet he holds before him as if he is trying to use it to hide himself.
Suddenly he lowers the bouquet and looks seriously
"Come on Anthony! You can do this!"
He rings the doorbell and puts a smile on his face

A butler opened the door, within sight of the door at least five works of art each worth more than a Dunkirk class battleship hung inside to entrance hall.
Sir William was standing with his two children waiting patiently.
"Ah he is here as I said he would be."
George who looks almost exactly like Winston Churchill was rather dis-interested.
"I will be sending a message to Helga if you would excuse me." He lit up a third cigar as he left.
"Well shall we go up to meet him Juliet?" William said to his daughter.
"Well he's is BAF..." She said looking at Robson with fixated eyes.
"Yes like I said, now it's good to speak to him is it not?"
"Um... yes Father..." She stuttered moving slightly closer to the Ensign.
She smiled at him.

He walks inside and looks at Juliet
"Hello.... i guess you are Juliet?... I'm Anthony Robson.... b..but you can call me Tony if you want" He laughs a bit embarrassed
"I...i brought you something.."
He quickly holds up the bouquet which is now directly infront of her face
RE: A meeting at the Antioch estate - APDAF - 02-19-2014
Juliet blushed and stammered due to nerves.
"Y... Yes I am..."
She took the flowers.
"Thank you..." After that she kissed his cheek.
"I think we should move to the north drawing room, to lighter the atmosphere." Sir William said to the two of them.
He placed hand on Robson's shoulder.
Relax a little lad... it make's it easier. He whispered.
He then gestured towards the grand staircase.
"Shall we?"
RE: A meeting at the Antioch estate - Big_B - 02-19-2014
He blushes a deep red as she kisses him
"I..it was nothing..."
He hears the words of Sir William and takes a deep breath
"A..alright..."
He nods to Sir Williams and smiles at Juliet
"M..miss Antioch"
He indicates with his lowered hand into the direction in which Sir William pointed
RE: A meeting at the Antioch estate - APDAF - 02-19-2014
Juliet holds his hand.
"It's just Juliet..."
She starts making her way to the stairs.
"She..." She stopped before becoming too upset.
Sir William whispered to Robson.
"Lad don't mention her Mother... I will explain later." He said with a sad tone.
Juliet perked up.
"So tell me about life in the BAF?" She said.
RE: A meeting at the Antioch estate - Big_B - 02-19-2014
He nods again to Sir Williams and then looks back to Juliet
"Well.... i..its a exciting job... well... for me at least... I joined BAF because i wanted to change things in Bretonia.... bring peace back into its life... and protect it. Sometimes its boring... for example when i have to fill out partol reports. Of course its also a dangerous job... but... Bretonia and its citizens need every peson who can hold a gun in this hard times..."
He smiles at her, it looks like his self-confidence increases the more they are together
"A..and what about you? Tell me something about yourself"
RE: A meeting at the Antioch estate - APDAF - 02-19-2014
She said with a hint of sadness.
"Well I was going to be a nurse but... I couldn't see death... you see"
She cleared her throat.
"I spend most of my time trying to keep the estate running when Father is not around..."
The enter the drawing room which has a huge portrait of the entire Antioch Family dated 807AS.
"I shall leave you two to it... I shall have tea and crumpets brought to you."
Sir William said before leaving.
"Well I also do other things... but they will not interest you..." She said with a smile on her face.
RE: A meeting at the Antioch estate - Big_B - 02-19-2014
He looks seriously, the smile on his face gone
"In my job... death is something with what you have to live with...."
He smiles again at her
"But that is not important... so you are the... uhhmmm... Manager of this whole place"
He looks around in the room but his eyes stop at the huge family portrait. He looks at it for a while befor he looks back to Juliet
"Why wouldnt they interest me?... in fact... i..i'm very interested with what you are also doing"
