She is My Master!
Chapter 18
"Welcome!" Nina Wong smiled at the newcomer as the black haired young lady worked her shift at Fantasy Costumes.
"Ah," the woman in sunglasses, hat and bulky coat smiled tentatively.
'Ooh, a shy one,' Nina thought. They sometimes had people come in who weren't very comfortable shopping for sexy undies.
"Good morning," Erstin Ho smiled, the gorgeous blonde emerging from the back.
The woman looked even shyer, if that was possible.
"Is Arika still in the back?" Nina checked.
"Hmm," Erstin nodded, "she's packing an online order."
More maid outfits for Miss Fujino?" Nina teased.
"She actually hasn't done an order since the butler outfit," Erstin noted.
Nina looked a bit startled, "Oh, I hadn't realized."
The 'disguised' woman carried up a pair of barely there panties and bra. "I'd like to get these," she said quietly.
"Yes ma'am. Lovely choices," Nina told her cheerfully. "Did you want to try them on, first?" she asked.
The woman went redder. "No, no," she said quickly.
Nina decided it'd be cruel to push her, so she ran through the items and bagged them up. "Have a nice day," she smiled, "come again!"
"Thank you," the woman muttered, hurrying off.
"Nina, did you get a good look at her outfit?" Erstin asked after she left.
"Hmm? There was the long coat," Nina shrugged.
Erstin dropped her voice, "I think she was naked under it."
Nina stopped, blinking. The woman had shoes on, but... yeah, the coat had gone down to mid thigh, and was buttoned right up. It was entirely possible she had been naked under that...
"Nina?" Erstin asked.
"Ah! Right. Yeah, I guess it's possible," Nina admitted.
Erstin dropped her voice, "Do you think it was just a dare?" She paused and asked, "Or something sexual?"
Nina suddenly found herself imagining Erstin running around in just a long coat, and gulped. "Er...," she started.
"I finished packing the orders!" Arika declared, popping out of the back room.
Erstin pouted, and Nina wasn't sure if she should be relieved at the interruption, or not.
"What?" Arika blinked.

Monday came, as Mondays always do. The work week and school began again, with everyone once again rushing about.
"Good morning!" Mikoto Minagi declared, the kendoist carrying her wooden sword over her shoulder as she rushed to classes.
"Morning," Takeda waved, glad to see the junior was so happy.
"Morning," Haruka Suzushiro frowned at seeing the girl being so... disruptive, in the mornings. Mikoto just ignored her, though.
"Morning!" Mikoto beamed at her friend and neighbouring locker user,
"Morning," Akira Okuzaki smiled, the young woman noting, "You seem especially cheerful. Did something good happen?"
"Yes!" Mikoto beamed, "I had an incredible date."
Akira was a bit startled by that. She had been reasonably sure Mikoto wasn't into guys... "I'm glad," she recovered, "who is he?"
"Her," Mikoto sighed dreamily, "Mai Tokhia."
Well, that explained a lot. "Isn't see a bit older?" Akira checked.
"Yup," Mikoto was getting her books together as she said, "And she has incredible tits!"
"MIKOTO," Akira yelped. "Don't talk about that in public."
"Eh?" Mikoto blinked, closing and locking her locker.
Akira just let that go. "Did you get the History assignment done?" she asked her as they walked to class.
Mikoto looked sheepish, "Mostly?"
"Good luck," Akira chuckled. "You can copy some of mine, just re-word it a bit."
"Thanks!" Mikoto beamed.

After class, they went home and changed out of the school uniform, then into those damn maid outfits...
"Yes. YES I know. YES." Natsuki sighed on the phone, "See you soon."
"Trouble?" Mai asked as she saw her friend hang up.
"My stepmother," Natsuki admitted.
Mai VAGUELY knew about Natsuki's family. Her parents had gotten divorced, Natsuki had originally lived with her Mom, her Mom passed away due to illness, and Natsuki ended up back with Dad, who had started a new family with an American heiress.
"You don't get along?" Mai asked gently.
"It's not that, but she's very... gung ho about being a 'Mom' to me," Natsuki said as she shrugged awkwardly.
"And you have a sister too, right?" Mai checked.
"Yeah, Alyssa," Natsuki nodded glumly. "She's part of why Mom divorced him."
"Huh?" Mai blinked.
"The new woman was pregnant when Mom found out," Natsuki said flatly.
Mai winced, "Oww."
"Yeah," Natsuki agreed.
"So what were they calling about?" Mai asked curiously.
"Step-mom wants to visit and get the whole family together," Natsuki explained with a sigh, "and soon, apparently."
Mai grinned, "You should meet her in the butler costume."
"Oh shut up," Natsuki sighed.
"I'm home," Shizuru called as she came home.
"Welcome home, Master!" Natsuki and Mai chorused.
"WHAT," Shizuru blinked surprised.
"You should see your face," Mai grinned. She looked at Natsuki, "Totally worth practising that."
"Yup," Natsuki agreed.
"You are so mean," Shizuru laughed, shaking her head.
"Dinner is on," Mai said briskly, then her phone rang. "Excuse me."
"Go on," Natsuki said. She addressed Shizuru, "I'll pour you some tea."
"Thank you," Shizuru said, watching Mai.
"Hmm. Oh yes, I'd love to. Friday night? Sure! I'll meet you here," Mai finished her conversation, beaming.
"What?" Natsuki asked.
"Mikoto asked me out on a second date!" Mai smiled.

Rena Sayers stretched luxuriously, as the two women in bed with her stirred sleepily. She carefully slipped out of bed, then padded off to start the coffee.
Anh and Elliot seemed to sense that Rena had gotten up, and kind of curled up together. They looked very beautiful, and she watched them fondly. The coffee perked and Rena poured herself one, then sat in the living room to take in the sunset.
She knew Shizuru mildly disapproved of such debauchery, but Rena felt you only lived once. And she had enough money not to worry too much about it. Was that selfish? Probably. It didn't bother her much.
Rena jerked as the phone rang. Grumbling she answered it, "Yes?"
"Cousin!" Rebecca Sayers said cheerfully.
Rena smiled, surprised. "Hey, Cousin," she said warmly, "I thought you were keeping busy with the hubby."
"We're coming to Fuka to visit my stepdaughter," Rebecca admitted, "I'm hoping we can get along a bit better."
"You know, I don't think I caught her name," Rena admitted sheepishly.
"I'm sure I told you," Rebecca laughed. "She kept the Mother's last name... Natsuki Kuga," she said cheerfully.
"What."
To be continued...
Notes: Yes, Natsuki's asshole Dad remarried into the Sayers family.
