• Oh, My Prince!



    Day 3 – Operation Clean-up!


    “Aaaaah!! I just can’t get used to this filth! I can’t believe this guy is a prince! Ah, mou! Why is it that it’s always like this?!”complained Yuki, suddenly a girl interrupted, “Eh? What’s wrong Yuki-chan?” said the girl who overheard Yuki complaining. “Uhh..” Yuki didn’t know what to say, she turned around and then saw that it was the blonde girl that she saw the other day.
    “Blondie! It’s just you..sigh”
    “Yeah, it’s me! How did you know that my nickname is ‘blondie’?” Yuki just stood there, knowing not what to say
    “Anyways..” added the girl, “I didn’t get the chance to talk to you the other day. Were you busy? Oh, and, uh.. you can call me Yuiko.”
    “Mm? ah, yeah.. I ..was busy, sorry..Yuiko”
    “Nah, that’s fine! What are you doing here in Prince Seiran’s room by the way? Could it be that you’re that new servant? No wonder I felt like I’ve never seen you before!” asked Yuiko
    “oh, uh, I am. And I’m just overwhelmed at how this room can be so dirty. I’m planning to clean it, for I can’t stand this too much filth..” Yuki said with a sigh
    “Is that so? I’d like to help ya! You don’t mind, do you?” volunteered Yuiko, “Since this looks like you won’t finish this easily, I’ll help ya!”
    “Sure, why not? I don’t mind, I need all the help I need.” Yuki agreed.

    And so, the two girls started cleaning, “We’ll start here in Seiran’s room.” Yuki stated.
    “Ok. Wait! Seiran? Are you two close two each other? You’re calling him without any honorific.” Said Yuiko, a little confused
    “No! No way we’re close! I just call him that.” “Well, then, let’s clean this place up!” said Yuki with a smile, for she is not just lent help, but she earned a friend too.
    The two gathered everything they needed. Pails, scrubs, brooms, dust pans, dusters, and mops. They started off with dusting the furniture, and then sweeping the floor, then they poured water with soap on the floor, and started scrubbing the floor thoroughly, next they mopped the floor dry.
    “There! All clean and shiny!” exclaimed both of them, they had a feeling of success. “Well, are there more things to do?” asked Yuiko, “I still want to do more, you know?”
    “Haha.. yeah, there’s more, don’t worry! Next is the garden, there’s a lot more things to do there.” Said Yuki, smiling.
    “Ok then! Let’s go!”

    ........


    The two then, headed to the garden.“I don’t see anything that we can do here.” complained Yuiko,
    “Yes, there is. We need to trim, water and weed the plants, and we also need to plant some new flowers in the vacant spot here in the garden.” Yuki explained.
    “You start over there.” pointing to her left, “And, I start over there.” She said, pointing to her right
    “Well, let’s start!” and so, Yuiko went to the left, and Yuki went the other way. Yuiko is happily weeding the plants when she heard the bushes rustle behind her, thinking that it might be Yuki, she called out but there was no reply. Scared, she stood up and suddenly something jumped out of the bushes and she let out such scary shriek that it frightened Yuki, “Yu-Yuiko!”
    “Help! Help me! It’s got me! It’s got me-e-e-e-e!! Its horrible paws got my foot! Aaah! It’s biting me!!” yelled Yuiko “Save me-e-e-e!”
    But when Yuki arrived, the scene was so funny to her that she laughed
    “Eh? D-demo.. Yuiko, tha- that’s just a puppy..” Yuki said, giggling
    “What do you mean “just a puppy”?! Does this look like a puppy to you?!”she said, pointing to the little animal that is still biting her foot. And it is indeed not a puppy. It has a cream coloured fur and a white moon crest on the forehead. Its eyes have the colour of the ocean and what’s more strange is that it has two tails.
    “It’s not a dog, alright but it’s a still s puppy. And, look at it it’s cute!” Yuki extended her hand and the puppy came to her, “Aww..he’s so cute! I’ll keep him! Tell no one about this Yuiko, ok?”, “Y-yeah..” Yuiko looked at the weird couple, They’re sparkling! Too bright!

    After a while..


    “Hahaha! I still can’t believe you got so scared just because of a puppy!” teased Yuki, she has the puppy hidden in her apron pocket
    “Yeah, yeah” is only Yuiko can say, “Somehow I feel that it’s the most humiliating moment of my life....” Yuki looked at her and smiled gently, “Don’t worry about it.. I won’t tell anyone!”

    The two finally finished their work at the garden, and Yuki went back to Seiran’s room. And in there she saw a pile of clothes, scattered on the floor. “What the heck are these?! I cleaned moments ago and these?!”, yelled Yuki, then Seiran came out from the terrace and said, “Oh, that? Those clothes needed to be washed, put those in that small, white basket over there for the other maids to get.” Yuki is so pissed being ordered around like that, but did what Seiran told him, she put the clothes in the other basket and in a twinkle of an eye, were suddenly burned.
    Seiran was bewildered and shocked from what Yuki did to his clothes,
    “Wha-What the heck did you do to my clothes?! Why did you put it in the black one?!” he said shouting angrily to Yuki
    “Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize it was the black basket, Seiran.” said Yuki with a grin. Nothing can be done now, for the clothes are all now BURNED.

    ........

    [[Excuse me, this is the narrator, just additional details about the basket. In Seiran’s room, there is 2 baskets, one big basket, which is for trash and other things that is to be BURNED, I said “burned” because, this basket has a spell in it, so if you put things in here, it is immediately BURNED. And the small basket is for clothes that are for washing.]]
