CHAPTER 3

MESSAGE FROM PRANS

After a month she decided to face whether it was still a dream or not. She needed to meet her father.

"Prans will it be okay to meet father?" Prans jumped at the sudden voice from her back.

It was her Young Lady Clein lost while reading on the book.

"Master would be delighted young lady!" The Baron was so worried with her daughter's behavior. She refused to meet him ever since she got well from her illness.

Prans was confused with her gloomy face. Did something happen? Prans thought.

"Will he get angry?" Clein has her eyes on the book but Prans knee that she's not reading it. She was waiting for her reply.

"We cannot know if you won't ask her yourself young lady" Prans smiled. It's a good sign that the young Miss was talking this much. There were times that she wants to run away from her expressionless lady.

"You're right. Would you mind setting an appointment for me?" Clein kindly ask.

"A...a...appointment?" Prans was baffled. She was new to this mansion... less than a year. She didn't know that the young lady should set an appointment just to meet her father.

To her encounter with the Baron two days ago, she believes that he is a doting father. However, she could not ask any question. Not now that the young lady finally opened up.

"How about tomorrow young lady? Just organized your thought first and prepare yourself to meet Master?" Prans smiled.

Clein heart beats fast... It was the same Prans on that dream. Considerate, kind, and puts her wellbeing in top most of her priority except that she was a talker sometimes

"I'll trouble you Prans"

"No no no, certainly not young lady! It's my pleasure to serve you!" Prans sometimes could not believe how this Young lady talk to her. It was kind and casual, like she knew her for a long time... if that's makes sense.

"Thank you Prans" That again! The young maid could not find a mistress who thanked her servants. Only Young lady Clein did.

Prans almost ran out of the young lady's room. She needs to inform Butler Hepthym as soon as possible! They were asking for the young lady's condition a couple of days ago.

This is the moment that the master is waiting for!

Due to over excitement she barge on the Butler's room in the middle of the night without knocking

"Butle.. Aaaacckkk!" she shut the door as fast as she can after seeing things she should not see.

She saw the Butler half naked with a towel dangerously covering his lower half.

Prans' head almost explode to what she saw.

"You're so stupid Prans! Did you forget to knock on someone else's door? Might as well bang your head to death you stupid moron!" she could not help but scold herself.

"Of all people why did you do it to Butler Hepthym? This time you surely get fired out of your stupidity!" Prans continued to roast herself.

"Should I just return tomorrow? Ahat will I do if Butler Hepthym will kill me on my sleep?"

In the end Prans decided to face him. She must deliver the young lady's urgent message first she should just forget how to be ashamed this time.

*knock

*knock

*knock

"I'm glad you still keep your etiquette" Hepthym was now fully dressed with an annoyed face. Prans could notice few droplets of water from his wet hair.

"I am so sorry Butler Hepthym! I hope I didn't come in a wrong time." she apologetically said.

"And I hope you thunk before you suddenly break into my room--"

"I sincerely apologize Butler Hepthmy! I was just so excited that's why I forgot my manners" Prans bowed again to the Butler.

"I hope your excuse weighs equally the reason you're here." Butler folded both of his arms.

"Hmm Young... young lady wants to set an appointment to young master tomorrow" Prans informed.

"Appointment? For whom?" Hepthym eyebrow curve upward.

"The young lady wants to talk to young master tomorrow morning... that's she said."

"The young lady? Appointment?" When the Hepthym understands what she meant she immediately dismissed Prans.

"I understand you must get to rest now" Prans saw Hepthym started to walk to find the master.

"Butler Hepthym your glasses..." Prans reminded. She heard from other servants that Butler Hepthym has a bad eye sight that he had difficulty seeing thing without it.

"oh... yes. You go now" The butler returned to his room.

Prans could not believe that the butler forgot something... From her knowledge, the Butler was perfect when it comes to his work... he does not forget anything!

"I really think that Butler Hepthym deeply cares for this family" Prans mumbled.

"Come to think of it, Butler Hepthym has really beautiful pair of eyes. Pity it was hidden with those glasses." Prans just ignored it and went straight to her room excited of what will happen tomorrow.
