SAKURA POINT OF VIEW
"Aaah!! I'm already late for my interview!", I snuck up really quick since I am already 30 minutes late. Guess the alarm clock at my cellphone didn't work again. Since I'm all alone, I am having a hard time doing things right and in time. No one to talk to, no one to cook, no one to wake me up when the sun shines, no one to remind me, no one to care. There's no one.. No one at home.
I hurriedly lock the door of my apartment as my sweat is also dropping slowly. I ran towards the bus station and head to the company.
After my interview, I sigh.
"Great! I didn't pass. They were so mean I was just one hour late.", I make face while I'm taking to myself then all of a sudden my stomach rumbles. I am hungry. I touched it and pick something inside my pocket.
"Good, I got only 2 cents left. Oh Lord, please help me. I am jobless and I don't have money.", I deeply sigh.
"Give me that old man! Or you want me to cut your throat out huh!", an angry man I heard at a corner then I looked at them. An old man and an average aged man fighting for a bag.
"Give me that!", the man said.
"No! This is all I've got! Please spare me! I'm just an old man I can't get any jobs now!", the old man cried out loud. The man acted that his going to cut the old man's throat since he was holding a knife. Unwavering, I ran, pick a big piece of wood and hit the man's neck at the back! Things got so fast and the man breakdown. The old man was surprised and I was shaking also totally scared.
"I-I-I-Is he dead???", I stammered to death.
"No, he just collapsed. He will wake up some time.", the old man told me confidently.
"Oh God...", I took a deep sigh again and my knees crack up that I sat to the floor.
"Are you okay, sir?", I asked him.
"I am alright but.. You.. You seen so pale?"
"Thank God your alright. Maybe because I haven't eaten any since yesterday.", I told him with a very sad face.
"Oh dear! Why? What about your home?", he toned so worried.
"I have no home..", I smirked and suddenly, everything went black..
The next thing I knew was I am lying on a king sized bed and..
"Glad you woke up, my lady.", three girls were in front of me and giving me a bow.
"WAAAAA??!!", I am currently in deep shock.
"My- my- my lady??", I repeated while my eyes almost pop out.
"Yes, you are our new mistress here in the mansion. Grand master told us that you will be his replacement while he is away.", the first maid said it very well.
"Ha? Wha-? Whe-? Ho-?", I stammered.
"If this is a dream please slap me right now!", I added. But no one slapped me.
"Are you serious?!", I eyed on them three.
"Don't you remember the old man you help the other day?", the first maid asked me.
"The other day? You mean I was asleep for two days?", I almost shouted.
"Yes, My lady.", they answered in chorus.
I am so not used to this that I get a very creepy feeling every time they call me MY LADY.
"Wait, you said old man? Yes, I remember one helping. And..", I paused.
