“My lady, I apologize sincerely, please forgive this lowly maid of yours for what I said about you!” then she bends on her knees to the ground and bows in her to forgive her.

Zenniah just stares at her for a second, then she said.

“Get up Girly,” she spoke. “That’s not a big sin for you to bow your head to the ground. I am not offended by that,” she added.

Girly got up immediately and look at her.

“Thank you for saying that my lady,” she replied.

“Starting from now on, every time, everywhere I’ll go or what I will do. Only the three of you will be my attendant. You will be my side no matter what, no other attendants besides the three of you will help me. Preparing my breakfast, my bath, etc... Do you understand what I’m saying?” She’s looking straight at the three of them.

“...” The three of them don’t know what to say.

“To be honest to the three of you here, because of that incident that happened to me, I can tell you that I'm not the same lady you know in the past. Yes, maybe you are right Girly. Maybe you are right about what you said earlier a while ago, maybe because I hit my head too hard,” she pointed her head while looking at them, then she continues “It helps me realize, I was too nice to the people who mocked me or disrespect me” she added.

“So, from now on only the three of you will help me with everything,” she gave a smile that will give them shivers.

“If that's what you wish my lady, I will follow your order of what you want to do from now on,” Gaile replied to her in a determined voice while putting her hand on her chest and bowing at her.

Girly and Geny follow.

“I will follow you also with all my heart, my lady!” Geny spoke.

“I will follow your command, my lady,” Girly said.

“Then it's all set!” she clapped her hands, then she walks towards them and gives them a hug.

“I’m counting for the three of you,” she said while still hugging them.

The three were shocked by what she did, and they didn’t know how to respond.

“My... My lady...” Girly and Geny almost going to cry, but they hug her back.

“Now it’s time to start the day,” she said, “and I guess, it starts to prepare for what I’m going to wear today, right?” she added and winked at them.

“Yes! My lady,” Gaile replied.

“Oh my... I forgot that my lady,” Girly spoke.

“My lady, do you need something else?” Geny asks.

“Yes Geny, can you go and tell my father, I need to talk to him privately”.

“Of course, my lady. I will follow your command!”

“Thank you Geny.”

Then Geny runs straight away to go to the duke’s office. While Geny is gone, the two were busy preparing to put on her dress and makeup.

“I just want light makeup Gaile, don’t put on too much because I am already beautiful just the way it is,” she said while she was sitting in front of a mirror.

The face of Gaile was shocked almost she drops the makeup she was holding.

She’s noticed the face of Gaile in the mirror and she asks, “What?”

“It’s really the first time we heard you saying it my lady,” Girly responded instead of Gaile, who was still stunned by what she heard.

“What do you mean by that?”

“You’re looking down on yourself my lady,” Gaile recovers from the shock, “I mean you want to cover all your face with makeup, you are not proud of it.”

“I see... But as I said, I hit my head too hard and realized everything,” she gave smiles at them through the mirror.

The two also give back a warm smile on her. While they're busy, Geny came back and knocks on her door.

“My lady, it’s me Geny.”

“Come in Geny.”

When she’s inside, she walks towards her, and she said to her.

“My lady, the duke’s agreed to the meeting, but he said he can spare only one hour for you because he got other meetings outside the mansion.”

“That’s enough time,” she said, “are we done here Gaile and Girly,” she asks while looking at the two.

“Yes, my lady, we’re done,” Gaile responds proudly.

“Then, let’s go to my father's office.”

The three looks at each other, then they nodded at her. She stands up and looks at the mirror for the last time. She’s wearing a light blue dress with expensive satin mixed fabric that is off-shoulder. Showing off her perfect collarbone and showing off how the perfect body she’s having right now.

“Not bad, huh!” she looks at the mirror proudly and walks out of the room. The three follow her.

When they walk in the hallway, five maids were cleaning the area. She stopped in front of a maid that was rude to her last time.

“It was yesterday, right maid?” she said while smiling at her, “I don’t have enough time, but I just want to say this,” she added loudly.

“Remember this, you have only four days left to be happy, and make sure those days left you’re not going to run away from me,” she gave her a mocking smile, then she left her quivering.

She continued walking in the direction of the duke’s office, while she was walking, she said to Geny.

“Geny, make sure that maid will not sneak out in the night to run away,” she said with a smirk.

“Yes, my lady. I will follow your order.”

They turn to the right, which is directed to the west area, where the duke’s private office is. When they found a big rosewood eight-panel door with two tudor revival iron door knockers with a ring pull on it. They stopped walking in front of it, and before they knock on the door Zenniah breathed in and breathed out.

When she’s done doing it, she said “Gaile.”
