Hello readers, I know it has been a while since my last update, this is mostly because my life has been very busy, I have to babysit my little sister while my parents are at work, and I have to write 3 essays for dual credit English, which I am taking next year. Also, in light of recent events, I will be keeping the people of Charleston in my prayers. There is no excuse for such horrible actions.

Disclaimer: If it does not seem realistic for a 17 year old to own it, chances are I don't own it.

I woke up to a knock on the door the next morning, I opened the door to Madame Giry, who gave me my new uniform, starting today, I would be working as a maid. While I play several instruments I don't think I could have gotten a job as a musician. I highly doubt they would let me play trombone because it would be considered "unladylike" despite the fact that art does not have gender. I've just started playing flute and piano, and I highly doubt they even know what a ukulele is.

While getting dressed, I noticed something sitting next to the bag I had discovered last night, lotion, and my face cream. I guess whoever sent the bag didn't want eczema giving me too much grief. Good, because without the cream, my face starts to flake a ton.

After putting on the lotion, I managed to get dressed on my own, even managing to get the corset on after a bit of struggling. But Madame Giry had already gone off to the dining area, and I was afraid if I got someone else to help they would lace it too tightly. And plus, despite being completely covered, I was not walking out of that room in my underwear.

After getting completely dressed I walked back to where we had had dinner last night. Breakfast was pretty simple, just some bread, which didn't bother me too much. The only time I ever eat a large breakfast is on Sunday mornings, and on Christmas.

This time the dining room had been empty, until Madame Giry walked in with two very familiar people.

Meg and Christine.

"This is Sarah, She is going to be working here as a maid now."

"It's nice to meet you" They said while we shook hands.

"Thank you, I haven't met a lot of people here yet. But so far, every ones seemed friendly."

I honestly surprised myself with how calm I was able to stay, considering that one time my book club skyped an author I really like, and I sounded totally awkward, because I was having an internal fangirl moment.

" For the most part we're pretty friendly here, there are a few people you might want to be careful around though." Meg warned.

A warning that I would definitely heed.

After breakfast, and some talking, it was time to get to work. Cleaning was not one of my favorite things in the world. My messy room back home being clear evidence of that, but I was grateful to have a job and could put up with the cleaning.

The good thing was, I did not have set hours, once I got my work done, I was done for the day, so I spent the rest of my day reading until it was time for dinner, this time Meg and Christine where not there.

After dinner I went back to my room and changed into a nightgown before sitting down to write in my journal, pens had not been in my bag, so I had to write with a quill and ink, I had done so before in eighth grade when my history teacher had brought a quill and ink in so that we could see what writing like that was like. And while had not been, and still was not as hard as I thought it was. My writing still looked pretty bad.

Hopefully, that would get better with practice.

As I closed my journal, A note fell out of the back cover, reading…

I see that you have settled in quite nicely. Remember that If you need anything, just leave a note in the bag before you go to sleep. Your actual mission will be starting soon.

Good luck, Your guide.

I put a note asking for some pens, and after some thoughts some books on speaking Irish in the bag. I especially wanted the books, I had just made it to another level on duolingo and did not want to lose the progress I had made.

I fell asleep wondering who this guide was, and what my mission was.

I was going back through the other chapters, and I will definitely be fixing some of the mistakes soon. Sorry for the filler chapter, but I couldn't combine it with the next chapter because I only have a general idea of what I want to happen right now.

I actually am learning Irish by the way, I really love the language!
