Start Of School
After a month, Mother approached me in the reception room and announced that I was going to start my schooling. I also had to observe Dona put on makeup and go to register myself. I ran down to the courtyard where I saw Pumpkin sweeping the floor. I told her about me going to school and she looked happy. You might now know this but Pumpkin was very weak in her subjects.
I used to see her run out of the Okiya every morning crying as she runs into the kitchen and out through the backdoor. I woke up early the next day and put on a robe, it was white and blue. It had a simple design of wavy lines and an obi of light blue to match. I walked down feeling happy and saw Pumpkin waiting for me at the end of the corridor. She waved her hands in an exasperated manner for me to hurry up.
We walked out of the Okiya and down the street. We crossed another road and finally reached the school. My mouth opened, it was even beautiful then our Okiya. Shrubs and pine trees surrounded the garden as carps splashed in and out of a pool. A pavilion stood in the back and it was divided into many subjects. I found out that the top floor was the school. The rest was devoted to the Kaburenjo Theatre.
Pumpkin and I ran into the entrance of the building. Pumpkin instructed me to put my shoes in the top cubby as I was new. We walked down another corridor and saw some girls standing there chatting away. All wore the wareshinobu, the hairstyle of an apprentice geisha. I couldn't help but stare until Pumpkin dragged me away.
We went into a classroom and saw a wall with pegs holding many plaques. On them was our names, I couldn't read any as I didn't have a proper education. Pumpkin took the plaque and placed it in a corner. We went to other classes to do the same. After that, we went back to the Okiya for breakfast.
