Ever since Madam Red visited, she kept visiting for some reason, Ciel nor Sebastian doesn't knows why. When She met Etoile, something clicked in her, and it urges her to visit the Phantomhive Manor, at least three times a week and that feeling will change Madam completely

 
⭑*•̩̩͙⊱••••✩••••̩̩͙⊰•*⭑

Etoile is staying at Ciel's office and enjoying the book she's reading. Sebastian came in with a cart of tea, serving to his master "it appears like Madam Red visiting the manor once again" "Again?!" Ciel facepalmed
"She's been visiting nonstop"
"I will prepare for the pudding" Sebastian left before glancing back at Etoile

"So do you have an idea on why Madam is visiting?" Ciel glimpse over to Etoile
"Hmm, not really but I do see her staring at me while I work" "So she's just coming over just to stare. Good grief" Ciel continues to work waiting for Madam Red to drop by. Etoile went to browse for another book, a book caught her interest
'Demons & Demonology' the book was called. She learned that demons consume human souls and they can do this by either forming a faustian contract or just taking human souls. She stops reading when the door was opened by Sebastian, along with the pudding and Madam Red with her butler.
"I know you're asking why am I here? Well, it's simple!" She smiles "I want to take your maid" Everyone stared at her

"What you mean?!" Ciel burst, he stood up immediately knocking over his chair
"Haha, I meant taking her out" She chuckles nervously "Beside dear, she hasn't been out of the manor for a while, so why not let her out?" Ciel just stares at Madam and Etoile back and forth
"Fine but bring her back before 9'o clock" Sebastian picks up Ciel's chair to allow Ciel to sit down. Madam Red walks out of the office. Etoile rushed to Ciel
"Are you sure you want to me leave?"
Ciel brings one of his papers up to his face, covering it "Yes, you deserve a reward for working so hard" She smiles "Thank you! I'll be back" She left the office. Once she's gone, Ciel puts down his paper, his face, completely flushed

"Have you taken interested in her?" Sebastian said "No! I told you many times! I'm not" Sebastian stares down at Ciel 'Humans can be quite confusing when it comes to these feelings. Love. What a useless emotion'

Etoile went to the entrance to meet up with Madam Red and Grell
"Glad that you made it" Madam gave her a warm smile and Etoile smiled. Grell watched them interact 'What exactly is important about that human!' Grell thinks then she stops when Etoile smiled and wave at her 'Well... she is kind'
Madam Red and Etoile got inside the carriage as Grell drives them
"How long been working with Ciel?"
"At least about 8 months" She smiles and thinks about the time she arrived at the Phantomhive "You two seem close. Are you interested in him?"

"Interested? Hm... Well, he's an interesting person especially with that eyepatch" Madam laughs at her response "My goodness! You're quite a joker" 'But it's true!'
"You look too young to be working with him, there are many things you shouldn't know what's going on at the Phantomhive. What would your parents say?" 'Things? Parents'
"I don't know if I have any hah" Etoile chuckled, Madam's smile faded away
"Are you an orphan?" "I might be" She continues to smile
'If she is an orphan I could just-' The carriage halted "Oh won't you look at that! We're here!" Madam exclaim, Grell opened the carriage to let them out

Etoile looks around, there were a lot of shops and people, mostly everyone was wearing expensive clothing, making her feel uneasy 'What if they make fun of me? They're gonna laugh because I'm a servant! They're gonna kick me out'
"Come along" Madam holds Etoile's hand, guiding her in the street, they went to many different shops, buying clothes, accessories, and sweets. They took a break at a nearby cafe, they both enjoy the cakes and tea "How dare you! Do you have any idea who am I?!" There was yelling outside the bakery, a fight between a shop keeper and a noble. The noble also had a butler at his side and looked a bit similar to Sebastian, the noble and butler both walked away, Etoile continues to eat her cake

"I hope you're enjoying yourself" Madam smiles "I am. Thank you Madam Red"
"Please, there's no need to call me that. Call me Angelina" "Angelina.." After their break, they went to a different store. They passed a couple, the lady was wearing revealing clothes while the man continues to fondle her, Angelina grip tightens when she saw the two
"What are they doing?" Etoile questioned, Angelina just smiled "They're working together" Grell smirked and look at Angelina "Looks like we have a new customer coming soon" Grell muttered

They walk through the streets, Angelina stopped and look at a family "Angelina?" Etoile stares at her, she wipes the tears away "The reason why I invited you... Is because... You remind me of a child that I always wanted. I wasn't able to have a child after my husband passed away but maybe I could find one" Angelina patted her head "Well you remind me of a mom never had but we have each other! I can be your daughter and you can be my mom"

Something change in Angelina, she can finally stop, she can be in peace along with Etoile, Angelina glance back at Grell, who was upset "Of course" She gave her a hug

Grell drive Angelina and Etoile back to the manor "Thank you so much for inviting me!" "There's so no need to thank me. Now go along" They both wave goodbye and walk inside the manor along with the bags filled with new clothes and accessories "I see you've finally arrived" Sebastian comment as he watches her "Allow me to help you" He helps her carry the bag back to her room
"Oh! One more thing" She said and look through her bag and pulling out a bracelet and a box "The box is for Ciel, it's a dessert and the bracelet is for you" Sebastian took the box and bracelet, inside the box was chocolate cake so he left it in the kitchen

Sebastian went to his room and examine the bracelet 'A friendship bracelet? Since when did we become friends. What rubbish' He put it in the bin
'Humans are confusing'
