The three encounters between Sir Galaad and Mrs. Whitaker reveals that Sir Galaad treated her like a queen but Mrs. Whitaker wants to be treated normally.

Explanation:

'Chivalry' is a short story written by Neil Gaiman. The story is about an elderly woman Mrs. Whitaker, who finds the Holy Grail in an old shop.

In the story, Mrs. Whitaker was visited by Sir Galaad, Knight of the Round Table. In the three encounters between Sir Galaad and Mrs. Whitaker, Sir Galaad treats Mrs. Whitaker as a queen by offering her various precious gifts in exchange of the Holy Grail. Instead, Mrs. Whitaker wants to be treated normally.

Though, their meeting was a magical one, Sir Galaad, Knight of the Round Table, was here visiting and having teatime with Mrs. Whitaker. Despite, having magical elements the author has portrayed their relationship as somewhat a normal interaction between common people.

Textual evidence:

'When she got home, Galaad was waiting for her. He was giving the neighborhood children rides on Grizzel’s back, up and down the street.

“I’m glad you’re here,” she said. “I’ve got some cases that need moving.”

She showed him up to the boxroom in the top of the house. He moved all the old suitcases for her, so she could get to the cupboard at the back.'
