You open your eyes and stretch your body as you awake. Waking up with a raging headache is the worst.
Turning your head to the side to check the time and it's almost noon. You gradually sit up to check the room if Wilhemina is around. You heard the door of your room open and made your attention turn in that direction. Two maids come in and the other one has a bed tray in her hand, carefully balancing it as she steps in.
"Oh, you're awake." Her head bows down slightly while showing a timid smile. "Miss Venable wants you to eat. She said that she'll be going to an office meeting and will be back soon."
"Alright, thanks." Yawning as you thank her and she put the tray over the bed. You get a glass of water, take a drink to relieve your thirst and hydrate your dry mouth. After that, you pick up the chicken sandwich and eat it.
Your eyes are closed as you chew the last bite of your lunch, feeling nauseous and like you're going to barf the food that you just ate. The maid is handing you two pills when you open your eyes, forgetting she is still there.
You take the pills and take them with water. "Thank you, uhm what's your name?" Wiping your lips with the table napkin.
"My name is Lilia, ma'am. Your bath is ready." Her head is lowered as she's getting the tray from the bed. The other maid that she's with comes out of the bathroom.
Showing her a warm smile and lifting her head by holding her chin. "Look up, honey. Let the world see how beautiful you are." Then getting up to head to the comfort room.
Stepping into the other room, you walk to the steamingly hot bath. Feeling that you're about to vomit once again, you run to the toilet and dunk your head then puke everything that you just ate. You flush the toilet then go to the sink to brush your teeth as the bath cools off a little.
You start to undress before steadily entering the tub, letting the warm water drench your skin. Letting out a pleased sigh as you relax your whole body.
The scent of lavender calms your nerves and causes you to feel like it's spring again. Holding your breath before sinking your head under the water, soaking your hair good enough then going back up to the surface. Your hand reached for the shampoo over the table then you clean yourself.
After a few minutes of taking a bath, you dry yourself with the bath towel and cover your dressless body with the black silk robe over the vanity. After that, you step out of the bathroom with the towel wrapped around your hair.
"Here are your clothes, ma'am. Miss Venable just arrived, she directed you to wait here." Another maid hands your attire to you then leaves the room to give you privacy. You go back to the bathroom to get dressed, feeling a bit better compared to the feeling you have before the bath.
As ordered by your mistress, you sit down in front of the vanity mirror of the room to brush your (h/c) wet strands. Your energy is not full and you feel like you need to rest more, you nap over the table to doze off for a while as you wait for your mistress.
"How are you feeling now?"
A hand is placed over your shoulder and it startled you from your nap. You shot your head up and turn your torso a little to slightly face her. "A little weary." Showing a dazed smile then turning back to the mirror. "How's the meeting?" You try to make a topic as you're staring at each other through the reflection of the mirror.
"I had lunch with Eudoria but we have something else we should be talking about right now."
You tightly close your eyes as she brings up what you're trying to avoid "What is it?" Attempting to look clueless on what she's telling. You open your eyes once again and give her a strained smile and recall what you did that upsets her.
