l couldent sleep, so lm here writing. l didn't think about this chapter so much, l guess l get to find out for myself what will happen.
she tried to look cheerful, but everything about this situashon just didn't seem to make her feel any better then she already was. she tried not to look to upset, and put on the biggest fake smile she can manage.
The house was big, it had many rooms. seems pretty big for someone who lives alone. she only had one maid. when Mai set all the things down she asked Misaki (maids name) if she can use their kitchen to make tea for everyone.
Misaki agreed with a smile. she showed Mai the way to the kitchen, and told her where all the cups, spoons, and where they kept the tea. Mai gave her a big smile as Misaki left. The kitchen was right near the living room, so if anything happened everyone would bbe able to hear. but she douted something would happen to her at this house.
As Mai put the leaves in the cups, and poured in the tea. she hummed a simple melody in her head. It cheered her up a bit. as Mai set the cups on the tray, and was getting ready to bring them to everyone, someone came in into the kitchen, and Mai didn't seem them in time before she crashed into the person.
"lm so sorry" Mai said cleaning up the mess.
"no, no its my fault l should have watched where l was going." the woman said helping Mai clean up the mess.
When they were finished, Mai looked up at the person. she looked to be in her 20's, and very beautiful, with long blond hair curled to her sides. she smiled at Mai so beatufully. but then her smile vanished when she suddently looked up at her.
"oh my, your shirt you spilled tea on it, and you didn't even feel it. come with me l give you some clean cloths."
"oh no, its all right stuff like this always happence to me." she turned back and gave Mai a friendly smile.
"you mean your always this clumsy." whats up with woman, shes acting so friendly and nice, so cheerful.
"kidding." she giggled a little.
"now come with me." she turk Mai's hand and forced her to come with her.
When they got to her room, the woman went over to her closet pulling out a bunch of clothing.
The room was big, and decorated so beautifully.
"did your house maid do all this." the woman didn't even come out of her closet.
"l like to think of her as a friend, not a maid. and to answer your question l was the one who did all this. l like to do personal things myself and let her do the kitchen and living room."
"oh, miss"
"don't call me miss, call me Mitsuki." she said coming out of her closet, holding a bright purple shirt, and a whit skirt.
"will these do." she said with a smile, setting them down on the bed.
"Mitsuki." Mai smiled at the sound of that.
"how come your so happy, and cheerful?" she turned around to look at Mai.
"do you mean what happened, to me 2 years ago at the house." Mai nodded.
"l try not to think of it to much, or let it get me down. you seem lm not one of those people who will let my life get destroyed over something like that." she smiled at Mai.
"you look just like, she was very beautiful." she walked up to Mai.
"let me do your hair." she said. looking at the color with great interest. she handed Mai the close.
"put this on, and come back so l can do your hair." Mai left, within minutes she came back, dressed up in her new outfit.
Mitsuki gave her a heart warming smile, when she saw her. she brought her over to her mirror and told her to sit down. she let Mitsuki brush her hair, and then do some fancy things with it.
"l do not know how l could l live such horrible things, what l saw and what she did to me. its a miracle lm still her." Mai smiled when she heard that. then she looked at herself in the mirror and was suprised at the person she saw. she truly did look beautiful, as if she came out of a fairy tale. she never thought herself to be beautiful, but now since she sees herself in the mirror, she knew that even she can look beautiful. like looks ever mattered to her, but for some reason she couldn't stop staring at herself.
"do you like it."
"its beautiful."
"l was waiting to try it on someone, but since Misaki's hair is to long l couldn't do it, but your hair." she ran her finger's though it.
"oh, what am l doing, it's like lm getting you ready for a ball or dance."
"Mai." she turned Mai to face her.
"let me tell you one thing. listen carefully becouse you will need this." her face grew seruse, and Mai knew she had to pay close attenchon, and remember this no matter what.
"do you have someone you truly care about." Mai knew her answer right away.
"do l have to answer that."
"ofcourse not, if you dont want to," she giggled.
"l did have someone, that l kept close to my heart. but he is no longer here."
"sorry." she smiled at her sweetly.
"keep that person close to your heart, what ever you do never let that person go." she grasped a blue moon necklace around her neck.
"fight for that person, if you dont want to lose him, protect him." her grasp tightened.
"do you have something that you care about. an object that a firend or family member had given to you, and you treasure it." Mai thought for a while, but nothing came to mind. she had never recived something she truly cared about.
"if you do tack tack that object, bring it with you where ever you go, never let it leave your sight." she turk the necklace of and looked at it.
"belive it or not this actilly saved me." she looked at it sweetly.
"it reminded me of the persons love, that l needed to survive. it showed me that what l was experencing wasn't real, l only let it become real when l let my fear tack over." then she put the necklace around her neck. Mai sat in the chair for a few more seconds, untill they heard a knock and Misaki's voice rang like a distant bell.
"Mitsuki, everyone is waiting down stares."
"l'll be right there." Mai got of the chair and was heading for the door, when Mitsuki stopped her.
"remember what l said Mai." Mai nodded.
When they fanilly came down stares, all eyes fell on Mai. everyone looked confused and gave her different looks, but everyone still kept staring.
"Mai was making tea, when l accidently ran into her, she spilled it on herself so l gave her some cloths to change into. l hope its okay with you."
"no, no its find with me as long as Mai is okay with it." Naru stared at Mai, untill e relized it and then got down to business.
"okay, miss Mitsuki." everyone turned and looked at Naru. Mai turk a seat next to Masiko.
Masiko stared at her, and gave her an ugly look before she looked away.
After Naru was done asking questions, and lyn was done typing, everyone was packing to leave.
"oh, l should probaly give this ack to you." said Mai before she left.
"no,no its looks way better on you, you should keep it."
"are you sure." Mai gave her a big smile.
"Mai, remember what l told you." Mai flashed her one last smile before she got into the car with Naru.
some how the talk with the woman made her feel better.
They started driving, they were on their way to florida. since they had a bunch of equipment they couldn't get on a plan, so they had to drive the whole way.
Not 30 minutes into the ride, Mai had fallin asleep.
okay for some strange reason, when l was writing this l kept thinking that the woman would grab a knife and try to stab Mai. but l always wrote something different. l guess l wanted this character to be joyfull, and happy.
