"ARE you done?"

Uraraka raised her head for the nth time and sighed hopelessly. Forcing a smile on her face she turned to face Lady Yuuri who was sitting leisurely with an annoyed expression.

"Not yet, ma'am." Uraraka said softly and apologetically.

She went back to her work of arranging the sheets on Lady Yuuri's bed, this time she worked faster, not wanting to upset the noble again. Uraraka then went on to arrange the pillows and once she was done, she patted them and faced Lady Yuuri again.

"I'm done, Lady Yuuri."

Said Lady sighed exasperatedly and pushed herself off the chair then raised a hand to shoo Uraraka.

"Now get out."

Uraraka nodded then bent down to gather the dirty sheets and made her way out of Lady Yuuri's chamber.

The buzzing sound of people talking and walking all over the halls filled Uraraka's ears as soon as she got outside. She walked, careful not to bump into the nobles. Some of their children were running around and Uraraka had to go around, careful not to collide with them. Sighing once again, she continue to make her way through in order to wash the dirty cloths.

"Ochaco-chan."

Uraraka suddenly stopped and turned to see her friend walking up to her. "Tsu-chan."

Asui Tsuyu, a fellow servant of Uraraka. She's of the same age and shares a room with Uraraka in the servant's quarters. And she's become a dear friend of Uraraka ever since she started.

"Are you feeling alright?" Asui asked, stopping beside Uraraka.

The brown haired woman nodded. "Yes. Why do you ask?"

"You've been sighing a lot lately. I guess working with the other nobles is not to your liking." Asui said as the two continue to walk.

"Am I really that obvious?" Uraraka laughed nervously. "I guess I got too used to serving Her Majesty, and she's very kind and patient."

"Is that so? I saw her a couple of times before, but I've never got to talk to her."

"I should introduce you to her soon, once she gets back."

"That is, if she comes back."

"Of course she will."

"Well," Asui smiled, "for the time being, you're stuck with serving the others."

"Yes...some are giving me a hard time but I shouldn't complain."

As the two continue to walk, Asui offered to help Uraraka with the cloths but the brown haired woman kindly declined. Uraraka knows Asui also has a lot of work to do, she doesn't want to add more to her pile.

"Everyone seems to be whispering a lot lately, what do you think happened?" Asui said, observing the nobles gathering in their own circle and whispering to each other.

"I have no idea.."

Uraraka was preoccupied in her own hopelessness earlier that she didn't notice the nobles have started passing another gossip again.

"Uraraka-san! Asui-san!"

All of a sudden, Midoriya came in running to Uraraka. She noticed that Midoriya has a wide smile on his face and seems to be excited.

"Midoriya-chan, how many times should I tell you to call me 'Tsu-chan'?"

The green haired scholar laughed apologetically while scratching his head. "Yes, Asu-- ah, Tsu-chan."
