Housekeeping & Farming in the beastworld?!

Ch 2: My house

---

Yuna stood at the doorstep of her new house, excitement bubbling within her. She turned the handle and pushed the door open, stepping inside. The interior was quaint and cozy, but dust covered every surface, and cobwebs hung in the corners.

"Alright, let's get to work" Yuna said, rolling up her sleeves. "Where should I start?"

She decided to begin with the living room. The furniture was old but sturdy-a wooden coffee table, a couple of armchairs, and a small bookshelf. She found a broom and a rag in a closet near the entrance.

"Okay, cleaning mode activated" she muttered to herself.

Yuna swept the floor, raising a cloud of dust that made her sneeze. She wiped down the coffee table, the chairs, and the bookshelf, uncovering the warm, natural tones of the wood beneath the grime. She arranged the few books on the shelf neatly and stepped back to admire her work. The living room already looked more inviting.

Next, she moved to the kitchen. It was small but functional, with a wooden counter,and adding a splash of soap from a dispenser she discovered near the sink. Armed with a sponge, she attacked the layer of dust and grease that coated the countertops and stove. As she scrubbed, memories of her old life flickered in her mind-her hobby, her friends, the routine she once knew so well. Yet, here she was, in a world she had only read about in novels, cleaning a kitchen that felt strangely familiar yet utterly foreign.

After what felt like hours of scrubbing and wiping, the kitchen sparkled. Yuna stood back, wiping sweat from her brow with the back of her hand.

"Phew, one down, a few more to go" she said, looking at the list of rooms on the screen in her mind's eye.

She moved on to the toilet next, a task she wasn't particularly looking forward to. The bathroom was small and cramped, with just enough space for a toilet, a sink, and a shower stall. The tiles were grimy, and there was a musty smell that made her wrinkle her nose. Nevertheless, she gritted her teeth and got to work.

Yuna scrubbed the toilet bowl until it gleamed white, cleaned the sink until it shone, and attacked the tiles with a vengeance. She rinsed the shower stall and wiped down the mirrors, feeling a sense of satisfaction as the bathroom transformed from dingy to sparkling clean.

"One more room to go" Yuna thought, feeling a surge of determination.

Finally, she approached the bedroom, her last task for the day. The room was simple-a bed with a worn but comfortable-looking mattress, a small dresser, and a bedside table. She opened the windows to let in some fresh air and sunlight, then began stripping the bed linens.

Yuna found clean sheets in a nearby closet and made the bed with care, smoothing out the wrinkles. She dusted the dresser and bedside table, arranging a small vase of wildflowers she had picked earlier from the forest outside. As she stood back to survey her work, she felt a sense of accomplishment wash over her.

"Mission accomplished" she said with a smile, looking around at the cozy, clean space that was now her home in this strange new world.

Yuna couldn't help but wonder what other adventures awaited her in the Beastworld. With Pip, her helpful but unexpected companion, and a cozy house to call her own, she felt a glimmer of excitement for the challenges and discoveries that lay ahead.
