Lately the housekeeper has taken to leaving something still hot on my table far more often. For the record, I haven't touched a single one.

• Marfa YurievnaI found the cup empty come morning. Seems a ghost has moved into the Winter Palace.
  Rodion VershininA ghost wouldn't have taken two lumps of sugar in it.
• LiliyaThat was me carrying it. I ran the whole way so it wouldn't go cold.
