Scarlet POV

" Ah! What a beautiful morning!"

My name is Scarlet Yonder, I'm seven years old and a Tenryubito. Even if I don't know what that means.
I don't know why but I just do what my dad tells me.
My maid comes in and dresses me in a splendid rose red dress that matches with my hair. Oh, I didn't tell you how I look like yet. I have long straight scarlet red hair and golden eyes. I also have bangs that go right up to my eyebrows. My hair reaches my lower back. I should also tell you about the dress. Of course, it's red. It is sleeveless and long. It has red frills at the bottom and top and has black string at the chest area in a X shape.
My maid pulled my side hair back and tied it up in a curl with a ribbon. Then I put on the astronaut like suit with a astronaut like helmet. My father said that we shouldn't breath the air that inferior beings breath.

" Scarlet-sama, it's time to eat breakfast with your father" my maid turned around and led me to the dinning room.

" Scarlet, I hope you had a good night sleep" my father smiled.

" Yes, I did" I smiled a cheerful smile and took off my helmet to eat.

" I have some good news for you! Today, we have a new worker" he said and gestures to a boy standing on the side of the door.
He had messy black hair that went to his neck and emerald eyes. They looked dull. They would've been much more prettier if they were smiling. He's probably older than me . Some kind of necklace was around his neck that looked like a metal collar. I wonder what that is? I should asked him later.
We finished eating as my father left. I can ask him now while he's washing the dishes. So I went over to him.

" What is that metal necklace around your neck? Is it a new trend? It doesn't really look pretty" I asked as he turned his head towards me. He glared coldly as I just smile.

" ....It's not a necklace or a new trend..... It's...something to prevent me from escaping..."

" Escaping? From where?" I asked, curious.

" ..... From this place..." he answered with hate evident in his voice. I frowned a bit as my maid comes to get me. It seems that my father wants to talk to me.

" What did you need father?" I asked as I came into the room.

" I wanted to tell you that we will be paying a visit to Dawn island, the kingdom of Goa in 3 days. I want you to prepare for it now" He paused as he looked at me seriously." Do not hinder me. Is that clear?"

" Yes father"

" Then let's hurry and go pay a visit!" He turned cheerful again.

" Yes of course. It sounds fun...!"

" You may leave now" and so, I went back to the boy who was now dusting.

" By the way, I never got your name. My name is Scarlet Yonder! It's nice to meet you" I said cheerfully.

" .... You don't need to know... Please leave"

" Why not?" I asked, shaking a little bit and trying to prevent myself from crying.

" ....Just go away....!" he whispered. I saw his hands ball into fists as he looked down.

" If you're sad, let me help you! I don't want you to be sad!" I said determined to make my first friend. I don't have any friends because my dad said not to play with inferior people, but I don't think he's inferior.
He looked to me with slight hesitation before sighing.

" ...Gilbert, that's my name" He looked up from his work for the first time.

" .... Can we be friends?" I asked. My face felt a bit warm.

" .... Whyare you being blushing?" He asked, with a look of curiosity on his face.

" I-I've......never had a friend before" I answered quietly and looked down. I heard laughing and looked up.

" W-why are you laughing?!!" I yelled lightly at him, blushing a deep red.

" Sorry, your just... too cute" I felt my face get hot and Gilbert just laughed more.
I spent the whole day with him while he was doing chores, chatting about who knows what.
Then it was the time I was dreading. Bed time. I usually would be happy to go to bed but now, I just want to stay here with Gil forever.

" Good night Gil..." I bid goodnight to him.

" When did you start calling me that?"

" Just now" I answered with a grin.
That night, was thinking of how much fun I had with Gil. A smile crepted up to my face. I can't wait to spend tomorrow with him too.
