19 — A Sudden Return Home

Lord and Lady Fisalis returned home the next day, positively delighted—or more honestly, deceived—by our performance, which was supported backstage by a complex web of lies.

My in-laws’ departure meant that Mr. Fisalis could return to the cottage, as well, which in turn meant that I could go back to my happy servant life! Pretty dresses are nice and all, but I still preferred my uniform! I’ll leave the dresses to sexy bombshells.

Nice dresses like those are wasted on me.

I saw my in-laws, who told me they’d eat lunch somewhere outside, off with a big smile on my face. As soon as their carriage disappeared, I ran back to my room.

Removing my makeup and changing my clothes was like a full battery recharge!

“Freeeeeedommmm!”

I know it was terrible manners, but I flopped onto my pillowy bed with an audible fwump. This big, gorgeous bed was all mine again after two whole days!

“Madam. No one is around to see you, but...” sighed Dahlia with a strained smile.

“I knowww, Dahlia. Just a little more, though,” I answered as I nuzzled my cheek into the freshly-changed, silky-to-the-touch sheets.

Ahh, being able to rub my face on the sheets like this with no makeup on is the best! I really put in a lot of effort to put on my fanciest... no, my most no-makeup makeup look in front of my in-laws.

I was pretty worried, though, that my skin wouldn’t be able to breathe under all of that.

Dahlia’s eyes softened in resignation at my request. “I suppose it would be alright if you took a short nap,” she said, covering me with a quilt.

“Mmhm, just a little nap...”

All I need is to shut my eyes and recharge a little. Then I can get back to playing servant... zzz.

Between my in-laws visiting and having to share a room with Mr. Fisalis, I was more worn out than I had realized. By the time I woke up, it was well past noon and into early evening. I was startled by how dim the room had become and sat up with a little shriek.

That wasn’t a nap, that was hibernation! I roasted myself.

Too bad Dahlia or Mimosa hadn’t woken me up! I didn’t get to eat lunch with everyone... Nooo!

Mimosa interrupted my pity-party with a knock on the door.

“Are you awake, Madam?”

“Yes. I slept like a log, though.”

“You must have been exhausted if you didn’t wake up,” she consoled me as a gentle smile appeared on her face.

Her smile, right then, made me feel a hundred percent better.

“I guess so. Looks like I’m better suited to running around cleaning and decorating with you all.”

“Oh, er. I’m not so...” Mimosa’s saintly healing smile turned a little forced.

Who could blame her, though? What I said wasn’t exactly becoming of my status!
