Well that wasn't nearly as bad as I expected it to be. Ketha thought to herself as the General expressed his disapproval at her tardiness. Truthfully, Ketha felt she deserved much worse than a simple scolding, especially considering how she had arrived for yesterday's meeting. Yet what really drew her attention was Darius saying that Tamara was in charge of punishing the two of them.
A multitude of possibilities flooded Ketha's mind. Not being able to eat for 24 hours. Having to sleep outside tonight. Run around the camp until she says stop. All this and more ran through her mind. She was actually starting to become thankful that she hadn't eaten breakfast. Then she heard that her punishment was simply to arrive an hour earlier to the next meeting. That's it? Ketha thought to herself. Thankfully that Tamara didn't seem to be one of those people who liked to hold their authority over others. Or at the least wasn't used to having power to begin with.
"Understood Ma'am," Ketha said all the same. She was already starting off on the wrong foot. She didn't want to risk pissing off the General or Tamara anymore than she already might have.
