Beautiful of the outside, cunning on the inside. Part 1, Putting on the makeup!
After school, Auntie and Dona were waiting outside for me at the entrance of the Okiya. I looked confused until Auntie told me that Dona was going to take me to the Registry Office. We walked down the street until Dona told me "You had better not try anything stupid to embarrass me, and stop walking close to me. People might stare" I hung my head down and walked further. We reached the Registry Office and I got a shock. It was only several tatami rooms with desks filled with books and the room smelled horribly like cigarettes. We walked through several rooms as men stared at Dona. I saw one of the biggest men in my life, I learnt that he was a sumo-wrestler and his name was Seymour. But geisha shortened his name to Seiyor for fun. (Haha Seiyor XD, No offence Seymour lurvers n.n Runs away from SL carrying torches)
Dona soon turned on her charm and said "Seeeiiiyyyyooorrrrrr0-sssaaannnnnn!" He put down his pen and smiled at her. "Why Dona, you look so beautiful today." He may be a large man but he dressed really nicely. He wore a kimono with trousers. His job was to make sure that all the money from Luca were to be deposited to where they ought to be. That's why many geisha like to take "advantage" of him.
Dona told him that I was going to school and he opened a door to allow more light to pass through. He gasped and said "Why, those are really lovely eyes. They're like earth and water!" Dona smirked before saying "If you ask me, Earth and Water mix together looks like something that you find in the toilet after your business." (Ya know what I mean?) "Oh come on, don't be so mean!" said Seymour. We returned to the Okiya shortly afterwards.
Auntie sat on the steps holding a towel and soap. I bid goodbye to Dona before both of us walked to the bathhouse. It was like a tower with steam coming out of it. You could either soak yourself in water or go to an area where people of the same sex bath together. After the bath, we went back to the Okiya again, it was a tiring day. Auntie gave me another kimono. It was the first silk one I ever wore with designs of yellow flowers. She led me to Dona's room and she told me not to disturb Dona or irritate her.
When inside, I saw Dona sitting at her makeup stand, she told me to sit a bit further from her. She held a few interesting things such as several makeup brushes. One was broad as a fan and another was a thin chopstick with a little dot of hair. She waved them in front of me and took out some pigment sticks. I took one and looked at it, it as wrapped in silver foil and was a bit worn out. She took it back before taking out another queer thing. A piece of paulownia wood, she told me that it was used for drawing eyebrows. She saw me looking at her before saying "I don't think you need this, not that you're beautiful, but it's just that you're too ugly for any makeup to change this. Maybe you can be like Auntie, grow to be a maid and look ugly at the same time!"
She then took out a piece of wax and rubbed it one her face, neck and chest. She then took a makeup brush and dipped it into a ceramic dish of water. She then rubbed it in the jar of white makeup and painted it onto her face. She looked like she was wearing a mask! Men might find her extraordinarily beautiful but they would never know the real demon inside her. She then applied her pigments on her face. She chose a pink one and now her face was white with tints of pink.
She then thrusted another brush impatiently at Auntie who drew painted on the back of her neck a design known as "three legs" When you compare the neck of a Japanese woman and the legs of an American woman. Both give the same erotic feeling.
