There Is A Madam Here?!

They had intended to escort the 3 guests to different rooms. But because Feny immediately ran to hug Aria, the two of them were escorted to the same room.

Feny was immediately overjoyed as soon as she saw a very wide bed in the middle of the room, but for some reason Aria's gaze immediately drifted towards the small pot on the balcony.

If only the maid hadn't called her, she would've almost gone right there. "Miss… Sorry if I was impudent." Said the maid. "But if I may ask, how should I address you? Mr. Alrei hasn't told us your names yet. I am so sorry."

"Ah, no. Absolutely not." Aria hurriedly replied. "Um, I'm Aria, and this is Feny."

"Ah, miss Aria and miss Feny... I understand. My name is Julia. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask for it." The maid replied, even though Aria actually felt uncomfortable hearing it because the woman looked the same age as her. She did look more mature though.

"The bathroom is over there. If you want, I can call a few more maids to help." She added.

"To take a bath? N-No need! We can do it by ourselves."

"Is that so? Then while you're taking a bath, I'll prepare the clothes first. Please take your time as you please." She said politely before finally leaving them out of the room.

"Aria! You have to try this bed. The softness is out of this world!" Called Feny who happily jumped on the bed. Aria just smiled sweetly at her, but for a moment she suddenly imagined that Lily and the others would definitely like it too.

Shaking her head, Aria immediately turned to find her small bag. He begged Rei to get it before it got drowned into the sea, but Aria hadn't actually checked what was inside either.

There was a packet of medicine she always carries everywhere--of course her friends would pack it. Two clothes too, although Aria had a feeling the people in this house wouldn't let her wear those here.

"Oh, Leyna…" Aria blurted out then, feeling touched when she saw the little black box there. The only thing left by her mother.

Only after tidying it all up, Aria turned back to Feny to invite her to take a bath together. She had been worried about whether her iron arm needed a special treatment or something. But it turned out that before she could ask, the girl had already taken off the iron hook in her hand and just threw it somewhere.

Aria looked at her for a while, but then she followed Feny and entered the small pool and washed them both. Especially because Alisa had jumped into the sea, her body actually felt so sticky since earlier.

But after her whole body was clean, Feny immediately ran out of the bathroom first!

Aria wanted to chase after her. But since her body was still slippery because she accidentally tried the purple body scrub, she needed some extra time to rinse it off again. Plus, she still wanted to enjoy--

But then she heard the maid's faint voice from outside, so she finally rushed out as well.

Aria held onto her bathrobe as she was a bit shy to see the maid in such a state. But let alone paying attention to her, the two maids didn't even turn to look at her.

"Aria, help! They're messing with my hair!" Feny complained because the two maids seemed to be trying to dry and brush her hair. She just took a bath, but somehow her curly hair looked even more tangled than before.

"Um, it's okay. I'll do her hair myself later." Aria said rather sorry to the maids.

But because the maids suddenly went silent while looking at Aria, Feny said again. "And I don't like that dress either." She complained while pointing at the blue little dress the maids prepared.

"Why? It looks nice." Aria said. "I bet it'll look good on you."

"Really…?"

"Of course." She replied. "I'll also do your hair later, so wait a minute, okay?"

And after Aria convinced Feny like that, the maids finally talked again. "But I'm really sorry in advance." Julia started. "There aren't any young women in this house, so we could only get you dresses from Madam Sahara's old clothes." She explained while showing several more dresses.

They only got one for Feny's size, but they got a few more for Aria. "We apologize that this is all we can provide." She added that even though the clothes they brought clearly looked more than just good.

But rather than that, Aria's mind immediately became restless with something else. "Um, Madam Sahara…?" She asked carefully, or maybe even timidly.

'There is a Madam in this house?!' Although when she thinks about it, it's not actually strange!

"Ah, that is the name of Mr. Alrei's mother. But she died a few years ago."

"...Is that so? Are there any other family members here?"

"No. Only Mr. Rei lives in this mansion."

"I see."
