Woe is me
I love a good mystery but I often found they are solved to quickly, that is apart from mine. Who doesn't like a nice game of hid in seek, if you're a kid or adult, but when it turns into two year thing, then it's just taking the mic. Oh yes dearest, your really are the champion, until today.
Sebastians point of view
"Young master, I have brought your afternoon tea"
…?
"Young master" and still no reply, so the only option was to go in to and see … what a mess and the young master appears to be missing. Sigh, now all this tea is going to waste.
10 minuets later
"Please, have a safe trip."
Looking at the time I'll have to hurry otherwise dinner will not be ready on time.
End Sebastians point of view
I could of sworn I heard a loud explosive somewhere, that's right in the countryside. Oh well, at least I might be getting close to a house or something. I don't mind walking by myself in the countryside, it's just that it feels as if I'm walking the grand canon… again, and one can simply not fly in the daylight. You would think I'd be used to it by now.
Walking some more until the sun was just at it highest I finally spotted it in the long distance , yes. Looking to see no one was watching I ran at full speed and arrived at what I assumed was the front door but who knew, in seconds .
How old fashioned having a knocker in place of a doorbell, I like it. I knocked three times clearly and waited. After waiting a few minuets and hearing what sounded like expensive china breaking, a woman with red hair in maid attire, wearing thick round glasses came to answer the door. "Good evening miss, might I ask if a Sebastian Michaelis takes current residence here ?" I asked with a smile and for a moment I seem to have caught her off guard.
"Miss, miss are you okay?" I asked slightly tilting my head, a habit on my part. "Oh, sorry yes, yes but him and the master are out yes." eh, so I think it's a yes. "Then might I perhaps wait here until his return miss…?"
"Just call me Mey-Rin miss…?"
"Call me Nana-Lu, pleasure to meet you Mey-Rin." and she lead the way in thankfully not asking about my name like the other millions of people who like to ask about it.
"MEY-RIN, Baldroy was going to eat the pie but the silver is gone" called an energetic lad who we both heard first before we saw. Silver? How do you need silver to eat a pie.. O wait I get it cutlery, why not just cutlery or knife, fork, spoon extra.
"Eh, the silvers gone."
"Just like he said." said the older blond now coming to join the group.
"That will make dinner slightly problematic" I decided to say.
"Who's the girl?" said the older Blond
"Baldroy" scolded Mey-Rin, and right she should, I'm a woman not a girly girl blond who believes in magic ponies and evil witches. I don't even look that young.
"Don't mind him miss" said the younger blond, then he whispered " he's just cranky because he doesn't get to eat the pie." and he smiled childishly.
I gave a small short chuckle and introduced myself "I'm Nana-Lu, oh and before you ask questions I'm a Mrs not a miss." I smiled again.
"Well I'm finnan, you've already met Mey-Rin and his is Baldroy" he said pointing to them both in order.
"I didn't mean it like that." Baldroy tried to defend himself which just got him a cross look form the maid and a really, look from me, but I kept smiling.
"If you need a hand with dinner preparations, I would be horned to help" I said looking at the time on one of the clock on the wall.
"Well, it is getting on a bit and Sebastian's not back" said Mey-Rin looking at the clock herself.
"Maybe, but isn't it Sebastians duty" said Baldroy who I thought was the chef.
"Well I say let's surprise them both so, Baldroy you're with me in the kitchen, Mey-Rin, please prepare the table for as many guests that we are serving, and Finnan could you be a dear and pick the finest white roses and set them as decoration on the table with Mey-Rin."
"Yes mam!" and we all set of to work.
Some time later when the sun is setting
I glanced out one of the huge windows just as we were all setting out the starter. "Ah, it seems the children are back."
"Lets go greet them, yes" said Mey-Rin.
"Come, lets go" shouted Finnan like an excited puppy.
"Ho ho ho" went the small man I learned was called Tananka, and they all left while I put the finishing touches here and there. Right I think it's time I say hello so with a smirk I left as well.
"Mister Sebastian, welcome home!" I hear the servants chorus. Then they were making a racket about how his clothes were a mess so it's not just me then. I decided to wait to be noticed to see how this would turn out.
"That looks fun like up up and away." said finnan.
"There's nothing fun about." was the boys reply and got out of Sebastians grasp.
After about a minuet or so of idleness Sebastian got down on one knee uh hu and bowed his head forward. "Forgive me. As butler to the Phantomhive family, this is an un pardonable disgrace…I do not know how I should atone for this." everybody's eyes were on him. "I have been unable to prepare dinner this evening". I'll be the first to admit he look so pathetic and cute so I cut him a break… for now.
"Then it's a good thing I took the liberty to take charge of tonight's preparations."
Now all eyes were on me but I just kept staring at him as he did me. Then a few seconds later I said "It's rude to stare, the lot of you. For starters today we have home made lentil soup with freshly baked bread, butter and cheeses followed by the main of gammon steak, a selection of freshly picked vegetables and eggs, then for dessert we have a selection of cakes, crackers and mints along with a selection of tea. I hope it is to your liking. "
"Very good, shall we proceed young master?" Sebastian said. Hello to you to.
"Yes, but I want to know Sebastian, who it this lady." said the boy.
"Yes Sebastian, who is this boy" I asked as innocently as possible. Oh he knew he was in for it.
The spot lights back to him and after just a moment of silence he said "Nana-Lu this is Ciel Phantomhive, the head of the Phantomhive estate, young master this is Nana-Lu…my, as you would say…wife."
