AKINA

~• The Rise Of The Emperal's Daughter •~

( Palace Maid )

Bora kindly bow down in front of this Lord Ti Yu and I just bend my head down without manners.

"Ah, I'm glad to see your face again Bora. And you are?"

Lord Ti Yu ask looking at me.

"This is Akina, my Lord"

Bora spoke instead of me. Lord Ti Yu just nod and averted his attention back to Bora.

"What is this important thing you want to tell me? It even required seeing me in person"

"Sorry for the sudden call my Lord, but I came here to announce that I'm continuing the job I got here"

Lord Ti Yu put his fingers below his chin, thinking for a moment before speaking.

"Ah, the late Majesty promise that you could get your job back anytime. Well it is the Majesty's words, and I see no problem at you at all"

Bora bowed again feeling gratefull. Is it real? The last thing I remembered was she suddenly decided to take her job back because she was interested in my story. Or maybe she is happy in this job.

"Is it ok to include Akina as well? She is one of my close family and she just needed a job"

Lord Ti Yi chuckles.

"I believed no, it requires perfect training to join the palace crew."

He look at me

"And the trainer are strictly informed that they could kick anyone who misses single things, are you sure you want to join?"

It's not like I have a choice. I would just make a plan on how to find out about the necklace. And if this necklace surely belong to the late King, I can't just ask Lord Ti Yu now. He might take it away from me and send me away.

"I would like to try"

Lord Ti Yu nodded. Seeing Kai put a thumbs up, I glared at him, just for a couple of seconds I forgot this boy exist in this room.

"Good, if it just an ordinary day I would immediately decline your joining. But this week is important, the Queen and Princess are coming home next week and we need lots of preparation to make."

After finishing the sentence I quietly here him say 'They're a bit demanding'

"I believe Bora knows the training room for maids, she can show you. And Kai follow me please, I need to speak to you on something"

Bora politely bowed as well as me, well nothing would go wrong if I did right? Before turning away Lord Ti Yu look at me in a weird way and then we watch them both disappear into another hallway.

What was that.

Bora looked at me. With a wide smile.

"How old are you"

I ask suddenly. It's not that I'm interested, she was just acting a bit childish.

"Oh that's mean. I'm only 28"

"Old hag"

I whisper. She shouted hey and immediately cover her mouth as she realize we're inside the palace.

"Ok. Now follow me"

She leads the way to this training room is being held. Every hallway we past through I was lost in every corner in this path.

Everything was so elegant and expensive. I can see gold in every concrete and old paintings hanging on the walls. Even the plant are well maintain.

Both Mama and I wish to be this rich. It was just a dream that we always talk before we sleep. I miss those days.

"Here we are, well, as far as I remembered this is the room where I was trained back then. So yeah, this is it"

We stop in a big elegant wooden door.

"I'll see you.....ahh you'll be stock as a trainee for a while and I'll be busy in the kitchen so I'll see you wherever I'll see you"

She laugh as I shake my head. I open the door and before I could open it widely I hear Bora said..

"And also. Be careful with Miss Dhaipa"

"YOU!"

I immediately look at my front surprise by the sudden shout of a woman or more like an old woman.

I look at my back hoping Bora was still there but she isn't. I look back at the old woman who shouted at me earlier.

Without any doubt this is Miss Dhaipa.

"You're late!"

"I didn't actually knew what time the training starts, so it's not my fault"

I calmly said which I earn a growl from this woman  and a gasp from the other trainee at her back.

She walk towards me, the room was deadly silent now and I can hear the clkinking of her heals on the marble floor.

"How dare you spoke to me like that?"

"I'm Akina and I just got an order from Lord Ti Yu to be in this room"

The old woman was taken aback for a seconds. She glared at me before speaking...

"Next time I wont tolerate late pest, now back at your line!"

She shout at me. To get this done I follow what she told me. I stand at the very back at the four rows each had a five girls, except one. That's where I stand.

Hmm 20 new trainee.

"Now listen all of you if you don't want to leave this palace right now. I am Miss Dhaipa your master in this training lesson. Each made in this castle is well mannered, there are a lot of Palace rules that you must strictly follow. Further announcements later at evening after you take a bath you stinking pest. Zhang will guide you through your dorms. And be here exactly 7:00"

She motion the girl beside her all along to the door. She must be Zhang.

"Understood!?"

"Yes Miss"

All of us says. I can't believe I'm in this situation. This is not what I planned for, but for the sake of the truth. I'll do it.
