Chapter 24: I Ship It
Today was the fourth day of the current loop. Lyra got out of bed and put on her work clothes after getting ready. Just as she went to turn the knob of her bedroom door to let herself out, she turned her head and looked at the window of her room.
Hm..that's strange...I must have woken up somewhat LATER than when I NORMALLY do...
The light outside her room was brighter than it normally was whenever she left her room for work. It WAS still VERY early, however .
Lyra reached the foyer and put on her work shoes as she recalled what duties Ram had tasked her with for today.
In addition to the normal daily tasks, I have to... trim the short trees next to the lawn, scrub the pathway that wraps around the north half of the mansion, edge around the front gate and fence... Oh! There's also one OTHER thing to take care of...
As soon as she opened the door that led to the back patio, Lyra was given a greeting that she did NOT expect.
Rem: Good morning, Lyra-chan!
Lyra's eyes lit up in surprise and excitement at the sudden appearance and greeting of Rem, who had appeared and called to her as she stood in the fountain that laid between the back lawn and the patio. She smiled and waved to her enthusiastically.
Lyra: O-oh! Hi, Rem!! Good morning!!
The fountain, however, was not running. It was mostly drained of its water. There Rem stood with her shoes off. She was scrubbing with a broom in hand as she waved, smiled, and called to Lyra.
Seeing Rem only reminded Lyra of the last task that Ram had given her, which was to scrub the fountain until it was nice and clean
Lyra made her way over to the blue-haired maid. She was curious as to why she was performing HER assigned ask.
Lyra: So...uh...what gave you the idea to do this? Don't you ALSO have stuff to do, as well?
Rem stopped scrubbing, smiled, and explained.
Rem: Rem is helping Lyra-chan because of how much she helped Rem yesterday.
Lyra tilted her head cutely as she put a finger to her chin and responded
Lyra: Do you mean with Subaru, by any chance?
Rem nodded her head. Lyra put her hands on her hips and sighed in response.
Lyra: No rational person would EVER expect you to have to deal with Subaru acting like THAT all by yourself. It's really no big deal, you know.
Rem shook her head at Lyra and replied.
Rem: No. Being the maid which Rem is expected to be, Rem should have been able to BETTER handle dealing with Subaru-kun.
Rem bowed and continued.
Rem: Please, allow Rem to repay Lyra-chan for her help even AFTER her tasks were complete.
Lyra removed her hands from her hips.
Lyra: Oh, Rem... *Sigh* I owe you my thanks for this for SURE...however...
Rem lifted her posture back up and tilted her head in question.
Lyra: I'm gonna help YOU out with helping ME out! We'll do it together! All because I genuinely want to, anyways! What do you say, Rem?
Lyra smiled brightly at Rem, who could only smile back and nod at her.
