Oriana smiled nodding her head. Honestly she would have charged him close to that amount anyways, although a little less, and at least this way she was going about it honestly. Which was apparently important or something to most people. Trust like Baldovino was talking about "You are far too kind, thank you. When's the first lesson?" Wrapping up the bolt of cloth she put it to the side, pinning a piece of parchment with his name on it so that it wouldn't get taken up. She could probably even snag some of the extra for a dress. "Hopefully soon."

Baldo smiled as he stepped down from the stand. "It at least I can do for a excellent service you provided. At the same time I will hae the honour of spending more time with you too. So it a win, win for us both." He smiled plus if there was going to build up trust then two sessions alone won't be loads, four might be more then enough. So three will a good starting point for them both to put their toes into trusting each other.

"How about in four days I have a free couple hours in the evening in which I can train you?" He offered.

Smiling Oriana laughed lightly. Things like this reminded her of her past. Flirting with men, tilting her head and laughing at the right moments. Of course now it was to try and make money were before it had been for fun and the thrill of it. "The honour of spending time with me? You flatter me." It certainly would be an illuminating experience since she hadn't done any formal training in a while. Nor did she have any pants.

"I'll make sure I'm off, you'll come and pick me up?" She didn't know where they would be training, but she figured it would be easier that way. Especially since she wasn't great with directions and would end up lost.

Baldo smiled and nodded he was a single widowed man and so it only natural for a man to flirt plus he doesn't haven't to worry about formalities as much now like he did well he assumed that he followed the formalities with his first wife. It wouldn't be like him if he didn't follow them. "Of course, great company also getting the honour of training you." He smiled. He would like to get close to her and show her some moves but even then when he is training he is strick and he take his job seriously.

"Yeah I will send a carriage and get you picked up and I can meet you at my place where we do training." He explained. It where all his train equipment is.

"I think I'm getting the good part of this deal, not that I mind especially since it means getting to spend more time with you." Winking at her new client she was so glad she had taken a gamble on the man. Most had such drab taste, this would work though. He had chosen, or let her suggest, a fabulous material to work with, and she was going to get self-defense lessons.

Pouting slightly she sighed. "You won't be in the carriage? I thought it would be nice to share a ride." For someone who acted like Oriana was you'd think she had some kind of experience with romance, but really she'd only shared a crappy kiss in a dark corner with someone on her sixteenth birthday. But she'd picked up what she needed to, and this whole flirting thing was fun anyways.

"I hope that i won't let you down on my side of the deal then Oriana." He smiled softly. Plus four days will give him time to try and get something together for her. She seems like somebody who is up for a challenge, and some fun but at the same time, it looks like she hasn't had much experience.

Baldovino closed the gap between them and smiled softly as he lifted his hand to the neck so his thumb can trace the outline of her jaw if she let him. "Only if you would like." Of course, he had experience with romance however, that was with his wife. So this was like starting all over again with him. He looked at her softly, the look in his eyes were one that just gone through pain, but willingness to try and heal.

Oriana laughed lightly, shaking her head. Personally she wasn't sure either but there was no reason not to give it a chance. That wasn't to say she planned to lower her standards anytime soon, even though she wasn't in any place to do so. But he was just about the first person to show her any interest. "If it was anything like today I'm sure you will." Baldovino was certainly kind, and it also helped he was attractive.

As he closed the gap between them, she found it hard not to react. Usually she was the one making the moves, flirting harmlessly. Suddenly it was a little real, more than real as he traced her jaw. Cheeks flushing a slight pink she laughed, although not quite with the same ease as usual. Still she managed to keep a waver out of her voice. "Well then I guess I'll see you when you pick me up." Squeezing his arm as she walked to put the fabric away she took a deep breath. Things would be a lot easier if her life wasn't in disarray.
