Maid Returns

45: lnyeon Hu

means One Year Later in Korean

1 year later. Jangmi

Nari, a country that is advanced, progressive and rich ; home of arts, culture, cuisine, drama, music, idol groups, pop culture and cute stuff. Many people are busy living their lives and there are a lot of tourists fooling around, I mean touring around...

Morning. Galette Building, Jangmi City, Nari

kitchen utensils, food, flowers, costumes, consmetics, gadgets, books, classrooms, facilities, cleaning materials. Many people are learning new skills, listening to the discussion, practicing and doing other tasks inside the building

in the classroom, where students are listening to the teacher

"the old rule says kill the enemy, but in the new rule: killing is considered inhuman. The 10 commandments say that you should not kill"

"but how about the one who almost killed you?"

"let God judge him, never put the law in your hands, we are not killers here"

"you're indeed awesome, that's why I like you teacher, because you're really kind"

"thank you"

this teacher, who is teaching us not to kill, is no other than Parfait Neapolitan

Ring!!!!

Parfait: Break time! let's eat ice cream

"Yay!!!!"

These are the things happening inside this building, this is not a warehouse, not even a school, this is a re-established princess/prince-maid.

When the students, princess-maid trainees rather, go out from their lecture rooms. Parfait's phone starts to ring

Parfait: mother
{Apricot: Parfait, how are you there?
Parfait: I'm having fun teaching the students
{Apricot: and based on the new picture you gave to me, you're more beautiful
Parfait: the weather helped a lot

Parfait: hope you and father are okay
{Apricot: we're okay here, don't worry about us
Parfait: if only Xeo will be killed
{Apricot: I told you Faye, you should not be the one who will kill him
Parfait: I'm not the killer here, and killing him will not give justice to the dead agents at all
{Apricot: remember Parfait, let God judge him and those men
Parfait: yes mother ... I have to go, my class will start shortly after 15 minutes
{Apricot: alright, I love you Par
Parfait: I love you and father so much

call ended. Parfait enters the canteen, they she sees Lun,Dan, and Emmanuel in one table.

Lun: Par, let's eat sandwich
Parfait: I prefer ice cream

then they see Muffin and Vanilla running towards them while giggling.

Parfait: guys, what's wrong?
Muffin: we have tickets for Hwaseong's concert!!!
Vanilla: Kyaa!!! I can't wait to see Sundae!! Kyaa!!!!

Hwaseong is a Nari's national boy group of this generation, consists of 12 members, they have a huge fanbase and they are very popular worldwide.

Parfait: these girls indeed
Muffin: too bad, Par is a grandma :p
Parfait: hey, Lun is older than me!! Grr!!!

Dan: girls indeed
Muffin: face it guys!!!
Parfait: girls, just be safe in watching the concert, so that Xeo's dogs will not discover you
Vanilla,Muffin: Aye aye captain!!

Emmanuel: too much work is not good, we should at least enjoy
Dan: that's my line, dude!
Emmanuel: why you're owning a phrase that's not even yours!?

they are all laughing. Last book is Muffin to Lun, now it's Emmanuel to Dan. Coincidence??

They never forget what happened to them more than one year ago. The recovery is not that easy because they dealt with trauma, pain and regret.

Their hearts will not be in peace until they rescue Pearl and the justice will be given to the agents...

after Parfait and Lun eat their snacks, they go immediately to their classrooms for the next class...

[Emmanuel]

Later on, Noon time. Galette Building

I just finished eating lunch and I decided to walk around the school... I'm very thankful to Souffle sisters (Vallerine,Sara and Jacqueline) and David Rose that they secretly helped us financially and they are very supportive in rebuilding the agency. I never thought that they helped us especially when we were in great need...

suddenly, Muffin taps my back

Muffin: thinking deep again?
Emmanuel: hehehehe sorry Muff, I'm just happy that we're working again, thanks to those who helped us
Muffin: it's not only David and the Souffles helped us, Princess Helene helped us too
Emmanuel: I think the other princesses and princes helped us as well
Muffin: hope this secret will not be reached to Xeo, he should be surprised that we're still alive
Emmanuel: bad seeds don't die
Muffin: so I'm a bad seed too?
Emmanuel: of course, I cannot forget what you did to me before
Muffin: I did that because of you, midget!
Emmanuel: hey, I grew an inch or two
Muffin: bla bla bla I'm still taller than you HAHAHAHAHA

while Muffin is teasing me, I look at Dan and Lun talking and I'm hearing them

Lun: they're very curious if Parfait had a cosmetic surgery
Dan: Parfait didn't. If she has, she'll tell

that's what I like about Dan, he is fond of defending someone, he can be a lawyer soon. No sarcasm intended

Dan: I'm curious why in all places, why our agency is placed here? it's very near to the enemy
Lun: this is Galette building, no one knows that the princess-maids are here

this is indeed Galette building, it is within the city and everyone thought that this is a typical business building. As I look around, I see the trainees doing their business. 1 pm comes and classes start again
