Dinner time

The Great Mansion's parlour was resplendent in its time. Its original owner loved to entertain his guests over lavish dinners and conversations that went into midnight and beyond. 
The parlour always fascinated me; it's beautifully carved furniture, the alfresco on the wall, the almirah now filled with modern books. I was admiring the scene when I heard my mobile ring by the poolside. I got back quickly to continue my admiration. To my surprise, the lights were switched on, the dinner table was set, candlesticks were lit in the centre and two chairs were pulled out...Seemed as if someone wanted to thank me for appreciating their home.
