That was a little but weird back there, was it not?” asked Angus.
“Yes,” replied Ross, “I thought the great Macbeth would have been more excited then he displayed. I guess I was wrong.”
“Maybe not,” pondered Angus. “Do you think something else may have been going on?”
“Yes perhaps,” answered Ross “why else would he have acted so withdrawn and in thought?”
With more enthusiasm Angus exclaimed, “That is exactly my point.” Angus wrung his hands as he paced back and forth on the stone floor. Finally Ross spoke up.
“Do not fret,” Ross said more impatiently. He eased himself into a chair. As his body relaxed he said, “Macbeth could have been just having a bad day.”
Angus questioned, “But with that said, would not our message to him been enough to satisfy his discontentment?”
“We need to be careful not to jump to conclusions about this, but we should keep an eye out for any suspicious activity. I do not wish to blame him for anything. For all we are knowledgeable of, he could be coming down with something,” concluded Ross.
“A good eye out for him,” agreed Angus. Heavy footsteps were heard coming down the hall way.
Ross whispered, “We will not talk of this again.”
