Chapter Two:

Mistakes


~RIN~

"Here take these and use it to open the shed." The head maid said as she handed me a gold key. I nodded in reply and hastily left the room.

A ball was to be held two nights from now in honor of Mistress Miku and Master Len's engagement. It was to be expected by Miku…Always wanting to have a ball for every occasion. I sighed to myself as I turned to the corner. How soon time flies, soon they'd be wed and I'd lose Len forever…

"Look out miss!" I quickly snapped out from my daydreaming and slipped from stairs. A force quickly caught me by the arm and spun me into a quick embrace. I stared up to see that my savior was Master Rei eyeing me, partly surprised himself.

"Master Rei!" I quickly unlaced myself from his embrace and bowed in apology. "So we met again ummm… your name?" He asked.

"Oh I am Rin, Master Rei." I quickly replied. He chuckled a bit and eyed with those gold eyes almost similar to that of Len's blue ones. "Please no need for the formalities, call me as my brother does…Rei-kun."

"Reiii-ku-un." I tried to pronounce calmly. He laughed again making me blush scarlet.

Of all the people I had to meet why did it have to be him?


~REI~

To see her blush that way makes her so adorable. Why did brother never think of falling for a girl like her?

"I must be off now Master Rei…I mean Rei-kun!" She replied nearly shouting in surprise for forgetting to call me Rei-kun.

"And where to Rin-chan?" I asked managing to hold back the laughter trying to escape my lips.

"T-to the shed to g-get the tables out into the garden." She stuttered. I studied her for a moment, which made her flinch and I grinned.

"Very well, we'll go there together." I answered

The shed pretty much looked like a house except for the fact that it had no windows and only a huge door. Rin quickly produced a gold key and started unlocking it. I then helped her slide the door open and went in.

"Careful Rei-kun the things here were just forcibly stuffed so we shall never know if any of them were to loose holding." Rin said while she opened the main switch. The entire shed was enveloped in light and here I saw the truth in what Rin had said. The things truly were not arranged well that one wrong move could send all the things falling under you.

"Rei-kun this way…" Rin shouted from the further end. I quickly ran to her side, careful to avoid tripping on the rolled carpets dumped on the floor. As I tried to regain my composure I saw littered in front of us tables and chairs all covered in dust.

"And how do we plan to get these out then Rin?"

"Well… we shall start with the chairs and then think up on a way to get the tables out."

"Okay then I'll take the chairs stacked there in the middle and you take the ones there in the right." I said while rolling my sleeves up. Rin nodded to the idea and started pulling the chairs on the right towards the small passage that led back to the entrance. I then copied what she did and started to push the chairs out.

This is going to be a very tiring day…


"Well that's all of the chairs Rin…" I mustered to say as I collapsed to the ground. Rin ran to my side and sat next to me looking at me to see if I was alright.

"I'm fine you needn't worry about me Rin." I replied managing to pull off a faint smile, she sighed and quickly pulled out a napkin from her apron. "Here you have dirt all over your face." She started wiping my face which made me flinch. I wonder why I feel so uncomfortable. She was just simply wiping the dirt off my face right?

"Are you alright Master Rei?" She reverted back to calling me master which made me feel a bit upset. "Neh Rin…" I said and before she could respond, I quickly grabbed her arm and pulled her face close to mine. "W-what are you d-doing Master-," I quickly placed my finger to her lips which silenced her.

"Remember Rin its Rei-kun alright not Master Rei…Next time you forget I'll make sure you deserve a decent punishment." I whispered slyly to her ear. She brushed my hand away and pushed me aside. "What on earth were you thinking Master Rei? Have you no sense of being a gentleman at all!" Rin shouted angrily and stormed off into the shed. I grinned at her figure as it pushed aside some stuff and went deeper into the shed.

It seems she's just asked for it too early…


~RIN~

From a savior to a monster. He is nothing like Master Len at all! Where did he learn such manners?

"Remember Rin its Rei-kun alright not Master Rei…Next time you forget I'll make sure you deserve a decent punishment." His words echoed in my head. Wait? Didn't I just address him as Master Rei a while ago! T-hen that means…

"Rin-chan you left me." I cringed and carefully turned behind me to find Master Rei giving me a weird smile…I gulped and thought of a way on how to get out of this mess. "Oh Rei-kun…I'm sorry about leav-,"

"So you decide to call me Rei-kun now." He cut me off and slammed me to a wall. I blushed scarlet as his eyes directly stared into mine. His face was too close it made my heart beat so loud that I was sure he could hear it. He looked so much like Master Len which made my heart race even faster.

"Rei-Rei-kun!" Miku's voice echoed outside the garden. Rei flinched at the sound of his name called that way and turned out into the garden. "It seems Miku saved you this time Rin-chan." He murmured before releasing me and running off. I sat on the ground trying to calm my beating heart. For once I couldn't help but thank Mistress Miku for saving me. I tried once again to regain my composure and got finally got up and went off to finish my job.


"You're the best Rin-chan!" Miku shouted gleefully. The ballroom was finally finished and decorated for the ball two nights from now. Only the foods and the tableware were left to be prepared for tomorrow but the rest were already done, waiting for Miku's approval which to the relief of everybody, was very much accepted by Miku.

"No…Really Mistress Miku I had a lot of help for it to be this beautiful." I replied but she was absorbed about the design she might not have heard me.

"Don't be modest Rin you deserved it." Len said making me blush. He's so close to me yet still so far to reach. For once can he just look at me and notice my feelings.

"No really Master Len I don't deserve it." I replied trying to shake away those useless thoughts.

"Whatever you say Rin but for me I tell you, you deserve it." Len smiled and afterwards walked to where Miku was and soon both were so absorbed that neither of them looked back as I left the ballroom half-contented.


I was busy cleaning the silverware when Mistress Miku entered the room. She then ran to my side with a giddy look on her face. I stopped on what I was doing and looked up to her.

"Yes Mistress Miku?" I asked thinking she might need me for something. She then walked to the window and looked outside, admiring the view and then answered me.

"Oh Rin I feel so happy I can't stop moving." She giggled and then got up and started pacing the room back and forth. I smiled back at her and then started to clean the silverwares again.

"It's to be expected Mistress since your engaged to the person you love."

"If only I could share you some of my happiness just to make me calm down." Miku sighed dreamily. I giggled at her and then put the wares in the tray and got up. "Well when you can't take it then come and give them to me." Miku grinned at my remark and nodded.

"Sure why not Rin."

Miku sat across from me as while I was fixing the wares on the topmost shelf, trying to find the best ones to use for the ball. I then spotted a box of new spoons at the end and tried to reach for it. If only my hands weren't so short then I might be able to reach them. I tried to extend my arm further trying to get a hold on it.

"Rin look out!" Miku shouted as I lost my footing on the stool and fell, pulling the cabinet long with me.

"AAH!" I shouted as I fell. I then suddenly felt as if I was pushed aside and slammed to the floor. The smashing of plates and the clinking of metal was heard, I then opened my eyes and noticed I was barely harmed and saw that I was a bit too far from where I fell which was very odd. I looked around and saw to my horror Mistress Miku unconscious and severely bleeding on the floor. The cabinet nearly crushing her if it hadn't been for the footstool that stopped it.

"Mistress Miku!" I shouted as I carefully got her out. She was breathing heavily and the blood wouldn't stop coming out. What have I done? She's dying…Trying to save me…Why? Why? It should have been me.

"What on earth was that noi-," Len quickly opened the door and was cut short when he saw Miku on my arms bleeding heavily. "Master L-Len I-I." I tried to explain what happened and then I saw the look on his face so terrifying it made me shiver.

"Rin! What on heavens where you thinking!" Len exclaimed angrily. I never saw him so angry before it made me so scared to see him so different.

I stared not able to move on the large cabinet that fell and the broken glasses and plates on the floor while Miku was severely bleeding on my lap.

She tried to save me….

She tried to save me…

"QUICKLY GET SOME HELP!" Len screamed at the top of his lungs.

I quickly fumbled to the phone, panicking, and started typing the wrong numbers; Len grabbed the phone with so much force causing me to fall over.

"Aish, why can't a maid like you do anything right!"

"I am terribly sorry!" I apologized again and again hoping he would understand.

He stared at me coldly everything that I loved about him suddenly disappearing "Get away from my sight right now!"

"M-Master Len…"

"NOW!" He shouted and I ran out of the room barely able to control the tears that escaped my eyes.


~REI~

I watched brother carry Miku into the carriage and quickly sped off. What on earth happened to Miku! My brother eyed me so coldly and said nothing as he helped the physician wrap Miku in bandages and carry her into the carriage. I've never seen him so mad like that…

For once he looked so frightening it made me scared.

I watched the carriage until it vanished into the woods and went back in the house. The entire household was in an uproar it was difficult to move around. I tried escaping from them all and managed to make it out into the garden. Making my way around the maze, I easily reached the centre and sighed in relief when I could hear no more of the noisy sounds back in the manor. I then sat on the spot where I saw Rin for the first time and pondered to myself of what had become of Miku.

"Why! If only she didn't save me then Len wouldn't be so mad…Why did she save me?" I heard the voice cry out. I followed its source and found Rin sitting under a tree, her eyes covered by her hands but it was obvious she was crying.

"Rin?" She cringed when she heard my voice and looked up. "Oh Rei it's you…" She answered weakly. I decided to sit next to her but she moved farther from me. "Rei please…Just stay away from me." Rin begged. I shook my head and tried to touch her but she nudged her shoulder before I could.

"Rin what's wrong? You don't look fine." I asked again, getting worried. Why was she avoiding me? Had I done anything wrong to upset her and if it's about a while back that was only a joke…What did I do wrong.

"What do I do Rei? Master Len now hates me for good! I am a murderer…I hurt Mistress Miku, tell me Rei what do I do?" Rin cried out. I stared at her dumbfounded, could it be that Miku was harmed by Rin? And in doing so brother hated her so much? I looked at Rin, her blue eyes covered in tears and her face was frightened and pale. She was scared and I didn't know what to do.

"I-I'm sorry Rin but I'll do what I can to help." I held her hands that were now pale and cold. Rin studied me for a bit and nodded reluctantly as I took her inside the manor.

I'll do what it I can…for her sake I would.


PREVIEW:

CHAPTER THREE: The End to a Dream

I stood in front of him and for the first time no words were exchanged between us. He accused me of a killer…a murderer of his dreams.

"First light of day you must be ready to leave." I flinched when he said those words. I knew I wouldn't last another day after what I've done so this event was unavoidable. I bowed in reply making sure to look down so that he didn't see me cry.

As if he'd care anyway.

I left the room without so much as a good-bye and climbed up the stairs to my room. My last day as a maid ends today. This will be the last I'll meet Mistress Miku, Rei-kun and most especially Len.

Dreams will forever be that…Just dreams.
