◇Sparrow's POV◇
"Sparrow! A lil hand here!"
"Sparrow, don't forget about the eggs!"
"SPARROW!"
"SpARrOw!""Coming!" Am I a soldier or a servant? Ugh, I don't even know anymore! All I hear are "Sparrow! Help", "Sparrow a hand here!" All I want is to you know get into action instead of getting left behind here guarding the whole place with the other low ranks.
"Ugh, why do they always order me? Can a man at least get some rest?" I whined while stretching my arms in the air.
I was about to shut my eyes when my Friend, Alfonso also a low ranker came "Sparrow, there you are! Tired?" Alfonso smiled while walking towards the bench I,am resting on "Yeah, why can't they give us the real deal?" I pouted angrily, Alfonso laughed and sat beside me "Don't worry your not the only one, earlier Lady Agila ordered me to wash....her feet!" Upon hearing it I cringed real hard and gave him a disgusted look "How are you able to say that with a straight face?" Alfonso laughed then wiped off his happy tears "I don't know maybe I,am used to it?" He shrugged.
"That's what I really admired about you, you're so persistent, why didn't they place you in an higher rank?" Alfonso just smiled and answered "Well not all people gets to grab an opportunity even tho they've tried their best, like you, Sparrow" My heart raced and my face heated up "W-wha- I mean I think your right hahaha!" I smiled nervously, Alfonso chuckled upon seeing my reaction.
"ALFONSO!!! AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO BE GUARDING THE FRONT GATE?!!??!?!?!"
"Oh boy....Well I'll see you around Sparrow, later" Alf saluted before leaving the bench. I watched his figure disappear from the corner before proceeding to leave to my position, the garden. I may not like this job or anything but getting a position in the empress's garden is not that bad.
I have always watched her roses bloomed, the wysteria's dances, the pomegranates growth and especially the lovely sparrows who've always nests in the cider tree on the center of the Lady Higana's green house. I have been watching the sparrows dance and sing every day and it always make me somehow relaxed after doing a bunch of orders, If this what heaven feels like I'll probably jump in front of a running carriage.
"Sparrow! Their highnesses will be inviting a guess, proceed to tightened your guard and sharpened your eyes" The Commander, Sir Crisanto bombed making me flinch and closely dropping my lance "Yes, Sir!" I saluted, waiting for him to leave with his fellow favorites I rolled my eyes while murmuring, hopefully he didn't hear me curse his long blonde hair.
*BuMp!*
The sound made me alerted causing me to prepare my lance and swing it around "Who's there?!" I rose my voice while looking for the source.
I looked at my surroundings and found an injured Sparrow, seems like it hitted the Green house's wall "Poor thing, let me aid you" I carried the creature into my lap and inspected it's body "Looks like you've broke your wing, buddy" The bird chirped in pain when I started holding it's wing "Hold on, I,am trying to help" I shushed the sparrow down then proceeded to fix it's wing "There you go, I told you it's fine" I smiled watching the bird chirp joyfully "What are you waiting for? Go" The bird chirped one last time before taking off. I watched it flew away with a smile before proceeding to return to my position "Who could be their highnesses' guest?" I wonder.
