*Six months later*

The sun was shining directly in my face, which killed me because I was still tired. I tried to roll over to avoid the suns wrath, but unfortunately the window on the other side of me ruined it. I repeated this for 20 minutes before I gave up and got out of bed. I walked over to the closet to pick out something to wear. I settled on a red maid's outfit. Grabbing a towel and I headed for the shower.

After the shower, I swiftly got dressed and headed out to do my work. While I was in the middle of dusting one of the many unused bedrooms, Anthony came in.

"We will be having guests tonight, so I expect the ballroom to be spotless." I stared at him in disbelief.

"But sir, you surely can't expect me to be able to clean that huge room by myself." That seemed to agitate him.

"I said it will be done so it will be done, failure to clean it in time will lead to punishment. Also, you will complete your other chores as well."

"But sir-"

"Do you wish to defy me?"

"No sir."

"Well then get to it!" With that he left. How am I supposed to get this done on time. I'm no newbie when it comes to cleaning, but to wish upon me such a trifling task is barbaric. Cleaning as quickly as I could, I was able to finish cleaning my scheduled rooms, and headed straight for the ballroom. I don't understand how this room is even in need of cleaning, its spotless. None the less I started sweeping.

Its been two hours and I'm only halfway done with the room. What time are they supposed to come anyway? No doubt it will be soon. I quickened up my pace. About an hour later, I was finished. With what seemed like perfect timing, Anthony walked in.

"What are you doing? Go get dressed, I will not present you to the guests, with you looking like this!"

"Sorry sir, I did not know you wanted me to attend, I will go make myself presentable." I quickly walked out of the enormous ball room.

After searching through my closet, I found a dress that looked life it would suit the occasion, I mean they were using the ball room. I chose a Victorian style dress. (dress above) I hurriedly put it on and started towards the bathroom to do my hair. I put it up in a neat braided bun with a strand of my wavy hair dangling out. I then put on simple eyeliner and mascara.

Once I was done, Anthony came in.

"Nice to see you are done. Now come, and don't make a fool out of yourself or me." With that I was pulled out of my room and dragged down the halls and in front of the door leading to the ballroom.

"Remember what I said, and keep your head up, look people in the eyes when your talking to then, be polite, and when we are here you will address to me as Anthony. Got it." I gave him a nervous nod. Suddenly the door opened. Every one stopped their conversations and directed their attention to Anthony and me. We started into the room. As we were walking through the room, Could hear people greeting Anthony. As I looked around I was given glares of envy by some of the women, and looks of lust from the men, but it didn't seem like they were lusting sexually. I instinctively looked down.

Anthony came to an abrupt stop which caused me to crash into him. I looked up to see three people standing in front of us, two girls and one boy. The man and woman looked to be in their mid-twenties and the other girl looked to be around Anthony's age.

The girl walked up and gave Anthony a hug.

"Nice to see you again, Andy!" She joyfully exclaimed,
