Life in the Okiya.
During those few days, I missed my family and home greatly. Sometimes I stare at myself in the mirror and see a sad girl staring back at me with bi-colored eyes. Mother constantly reminded me that if I worked hard, I could go to school with pumpkin. One night whilst we were pulling out our futons, I asked Pumpkin what was the school about. She looked at me weirdly before explaining that the school is where young girls could go to study the arts of Geisha. Like shamisen, dance and tea ceremony. I had many chores. There were simply cleaning rooms, sweeping the floor and other things. Sometimes I was allowed to go out of the Okiya to run errands.
My chores were really too much. One day, I went upstairs to clean Dona's room. I was scared of her, even though she was beautiful, she was as venomous as a spider. I walked into her room and looked around.
It was the largest in the Okiya. The room was in a mess. Bottles of Sake and Kabuki magazines littered the floor. Her wardrobe was left open and I could see all the things she put inside. I looked around before I heard the door open and got a shock. Dona was standing there in the corridor. "Oh...It's just you. I see that you're tidying up my room. Why do you keep rearranging my makeup? Do you know that the men keep asking me why I smell like an ignorant girl from a fishing village? Don't even think of touching my makeup again!" she said and slapped me. I landed on the floor with a thud before bowing to her and scurrying away.
I walked down, covering my face and spotted Auntie. She shouted at me to come and help her with something. My task was to carry up a bucket of water to dump it into the tank so that the water will flush the toilet. I carried it up, it was indeed very heavy. At the top, I dumped the water out but some flowed down into the garden. To see the walls barring me from the streets, it felt as if I was to be forever condemned to this Okiya.
