311 Yike (Yiyi + Jake)

The memory of how it all started was extremely clear in Yiyi's head.

It started out as a day like any other—people foraging everywhere, people going out to hunt, and the Lord's cronies walking around like they owned the place.

The only difference was that she was excitedly lining up at the well to get some bathing water—though very early, lest someone mean took interest in her precious bucket.

She was smiling widely as she took her bucket to her shed. She cleaned herself up the best she could, though she used some leaf that smelled like mint and tasted like toothpaste as soap to clean herself up.

It wasn't the best treatment by Terran standards, but she felt like she had experienced the world's best spa.

Not that she'd know what it was really like, of course, as she only knew spas through television.

She had wanted to work part-time there, but she wasn't attractive enough for the front desk and she was too young for other jobs.
