Chapter 2

Nakano flicks her fan and all the maids take their exit the room. closing the door behind them giving the mother and son some space. amaya returns with a tray containing a kettle and some little cups all made of jade and stands behind nakano.

" Young master i think it's best if you take the tea now, your body hasn't had any good nourishment for a long time now and they might still be damages, so it's better to be safe." Nakano says, bowing her head gently yo signify respect.

Amaya quickly pours him some, gently filtering the herbs outs using a little filter and hands it to him. He collects it and takes the first sip, he gets a really bitter slap to the jaw and almost spits it out, his eyes turning as white as snow. He holds back his urge to spit it out and swallows, it feels like his insides were getting cleansed causing a cooling sensation to spread like smoke into every inch of his body further calming the headache he felt earlier.

He opens his mouth and was about to say something but is interrupted by his stomachs growl for food. His ears turning slightly red.

" I think we should serve the young master his dinner lady tamayo, before anything else." Nakano smiles and bows her head.

Tamayo nods her head

" Agreed." she replies slightly caressing his cheeks again smiling to herself.

" Inform the others to set the table and prepare a bath for the young master." Nakano tells amaya.

" Understood." she bows her head then takes her leave.

Lady tamayo gets up and plants a kiss on his forehead. she rubs foreheads with him before walking out.

" Why didn't you add sugar." He asks nakano his voice strained from the bitterness

" I apologize young master, it would've neutralised the tea's intended effect." She responds bowing her head slightly.

One of the helps that came earlier returns. she slightly bows her head she has straight neck long black hair, pointy elf ears and gray blue eyes, she is slim but curvy.

" The bath is ready young master." She announces.

" Ohh thank you." He replies disgust still written on his face.

She immediately turns around to take her leave.

" Wait, your name anzu right?." He immediately calls out.

" Yes, young master." She stops and replies her cheeks slightly red.

" It seems, you memory wasn't really affected young master." Nakano comments

" Not completely, somethings just feel really blurry." He looks at his palm and closes it to form a fist.

Nakano observes him for awhile then looks at anzu.

" Escort the young master to the bathroom, then inform the others to pick out a new pair of clothes for him." She tells anzu.

" Excuse me, young master." She bows her head before taking her leave.

" This way young master." anzu gestures to the door while bowing her head.

" Oh ok." He gets up scratching his head.

They reach infront of the bathroom, she slides the door open then gestures for him to get in slightly bowing her head. He gets in and turns to say thank you but the door gets closed instantly.

" Yeesh why is everyone so uptight." he sighs.

Quickly undresses himself, dropping his clothes on the floor and getting into a pit filled with hot steaming water mixed with different scented oils. He gets in practically moaning to himself as his entire muscle release all the tension to the hit and the oils.

My new name now is Takeo and it seems i may have lost alotta weight, he touches his chest before resting his head on the edge of the bath his back facing the water. He feels someone scrubbing his back.

" yeah right there, a little bit lower." He absentmindedly says.

Wait....he puts 2 and 2 together and immediately gets out of the bath pit screaming to himself. He trips on the water and falls on his butt facing the bath. The weird mist rises up and he sees a pair of red glowing eyes.

" I just came back and you already want to kill me." He shouts.

" I apologize young master." He hears a female voice say. the steam slightly clearing to reveal her face, she was also part of the maids that came earlier she has yellow blonde hair.

" Ohh it's just you aki." He sighs in relief

" But what are you doing in here." He immediately tenses up.

He has never had any encounter with a girl even in his previous life. Is this one of those servant master affairs i always see in books back at home.

" We're incharge of bathing, it is what the master trained us for." She jestfully replies.

" Although we could do anything you want if you so wish." She grins at him winking slightly.

" I...I...I." He starts stammering.

She immediately burst into laughter, splashing water on her hair.

" You look so flustered young master. " She teases him.

" I don't even get why you're so flustered, we used to help you take your bath all the time before the accident. " She says with a straight face.

He immediately remembers as his ears gets even redder.

He reluctantly gets into the bath, his whole body a red beacon at this point. She immediately starts scrubbing his body with a towel. She stops.

" Sorry, young master. we couldn't protect you." She says as she starts to sob, tears gently falling from her eyes.

He reaches out and pats her hands on his shoulder, he turns back slightly then smiles at her.

" I'm here now, so please protect me." He says.

She immediately wipes her tears and nods her head.

" I promise i would this time no one would harm young master ever again." She bravely declares.

He smiles to himself and thinks young master, i think i'm going to get used to start and i even have a mom now. Maybe this life wouldn't so bad afterall.

He is now dressed in dressed in a teal jinbei and has gotten a hair cutting, Aki and the others can practically do everything.
