Catherine and Henri

I await to see my husband Henri here in the garden. I hope that he will be able to come soon.

O had arrived in the gardens and I approached Catherine Medici who was waiting for me there.

There you are my dear. I am glad you are here, let us sit. I went to know how you are,. I don't see you as often as would like to. Is everything going well?

I sit down beside Catherine in the garden.

"Catherine, I am well, but as I am sure you know it is not easy to rule France. They have been throwing some many papers at me recently I could really do with a break at times. How are you Catherine?

       I am well.  If you need to I can help you.  You can come to me with any problem you have.  Henri,  I only wish to help you.  .

Not much. I know that her father died when she was young but that is all that I know. Why do you ask? .

It was just something I overheard when someone was committed about the King of Scotland

It sounds like a brilliant idea. I will send an invitation to her and her mother. Francis will be pleased .

No, not yet. But I will tell him. .

I go and search for Francis. I ask several servants have they seen him and if they do let him know that I wish to see him.

Henri you will be the first one to know.
