Downstairs at Longbourn | Episode 4: Thomas and the Pantry Door (A P&P Fan Fiction)

Описание: Chapter 4 in Which Thomas Encounters a Door, a Dilemma, and an Unexpected Dose of Admiration.

The morning sun at Longbourn usually brings a predictable rhythm of polishing silver and prepping trays, but today, Thomas the Footman finds his routine halted by a simple, immovable obstacle: the pantry door.

What should be a straightforward task becomes a baffling dilemma when the door refuses to budge. As Thomas stands before the white-painted wood, talking to the door as if it might answer, a mild confusion begins to ripple through the kitchen. The mystery deepens—where is Molly? Usually the most diligent of housemaids, her sudden disappearance and the locked door spark a flurry of speculation among the staff.

Mrs. Hill and Mrs. Dowling pause their constant motion to weigh in, while Betsy watches the tension mount. When the door finally opens and Molly emerges, looking as though she has survived a grueling ordeal, the kitchen erupts into a mix of relief and interrogation. Amidst Mrs. Hill’s stern finger-wagging and the clatter of the morning work, Thomas finds himself seeing Molly in a new light. His quiet gesture of a handkerchief by the fireside marks a shift from simple coworkers to something more, proving that even in the busiest kitchen, there is room for a little unexpected admiration.
