Reiko: ..... -Silent, hears the clock ticking- I'm bored... -gets off the couch and wanders around the room before stopping at the window and looking outside- Hmm.... -walks out to a giant hallway-

Butler 1: Is something the matter, Milady?

Reiko: -Shakes head- No, not at all. I'm going to the gardens. In the front yard.

Butler 2: But you must not..! The master and mistress of the house and Young Master Isao will be upset!

Reiko: .... -Sighs- Will the backyard do? Most of the plants cover me up anyways. They're probably even a little taller than I am.

Butler 1 and 2: ....... Yes, Young Mistress.

Butler 2: We still need to escort you and keep a close eye on you, Milady.

Reiko: -Thinking irritably, but smiling physically- Figures.. -walks off to head out to the back-

—————Outside in the garden...———-

Reiko: -Thinking- Well, I'm outside now, but I'm still not satisfied.

Maid 1: I have readied you some tea, Young Mistress.

Reiko: -Nods- Thank you very much. Please just set it down on the table -inspecting the flowers-

Maid 1: Yes, Milady.

Reiko: -Thinking- Hearing them address me as 'Mistress' and 'Milady' is getting tiring too.. -accidentally pricks herself with a rose thorn without noticing it-

Butler 2: Ah! Young Mistress, please don't suddenly grab the rose!

Maid 1: I'll get the first aid kit!

Reiko: -Sweat drops- My mistake. I was dozing off..

Butler 1: -Puts on thick gloves and starts trimming off some flowers-

Maid 2 and 3: We've heard what happened to the young mistress!

Maid 2: Is she alright?

Reiko: -Thinking- This isn't a life or death situation!

Maid 3: -Asks for Reiko's hand- Please hold still. -cleaning the cut-

Butler 1: I have gotten you a few flowers for your room, Milady, and the thorns have been trimmed off. -thinking- Thank god her parents let us bring in flowers for her this way..

————-Back inside the manor...———-

Reiko: -Frowning- .... I want to get out.. -fixing up the flowers in the vase- I can't climb the window though since it's too high for me to jump out... But it's almost lunch, so everyone should be preparing it right now. Then I should use this chance to escape.. Isao said he'll be back late like at 3, so it should be fine.

——————-Escape time...——————-

Reiko: -Hiding and waiting for the room to clear up- I hope this works... -dashes off quietly and head for the next room and hallway- No one is here and the kitchen and dining room are on the middle floor... -running to the next to get to the front, finally makes it out a few minutes later- My room is too far.... -walks off-

Isao: Reiko.....

Reiko: -Flinches, thinking- Already?!

Isao: What do you think you're doing?

Reiko: Getting.. some air?

Isao: Do that in the backyard.

Reiko: Why can't I leave the house? It's boring! And I've never actually seen what's outside of this manor before! It's unfair that you get to though...

Isao: -Sigh- Mother and Father said no. I'll still try to convince them as best as possible to get you permission out of the house though. But for now, back in the house..

Reiko: -Frowns- Kill-joy...

Isao: -Raises brow- And I don't want to see boys or men besides our butlers with you -grabs her hand, thinking- You shall not cross the romantic life. Not at all.

Reiko: That makes it even worse.. -gets escorted back in-

Everyone: Ask us anything and we'll reply!

Reiko: This sucks..!
