When I arrived back to the manor, I quickly sneak pass the servants and made it back into my room. I change back into my nightgown just as the maids knocked on the door.

"My Lady? May we enter?" I shove the suit and boots into my closet before rushing to my vanity table.

I sit and cross my legs, "You may." The door opened and they bowed before me with good mornings as usual. When they stood back up, they took a double take at me, "What?"

"My Lady, you're quite red." Rosy commented, receiving nudges and scolds under a couple of breaths, "Ow! Okay! Sorry!" She whispered back. I turned to face the mirror to see my skin was red with hairs sticking to my forehead because of the sweat that ran down the sides of my face.

"Ah, yes well I was quite hot this morning, I do need a bath," I laugh despite cringing deeply inside, "Rosy? Will you please?" I smile at her.

"O-oh! Of course, my Lady!" She bowed before escorting me to the bathroom. We left the other maids in the room as we entered the room with white tiles, a bath in the middle, a toilet, and a sink.

At least this world had indoor plumbing.

She prepared the bath with the flower pedals that soaked into the water. I stripped and stepped into the warm water with a content sigh, sinking into it comfortably. Rosy had helped me wash my hair with extreme care. Her fingers massaged into my scalp and I savor the feeling it gave me. It felt like heaven. The silence is a bit uncomfortable though.

"Rosy?"

"Yes, my Lady?" She hummed while making sure the pedals did their job.

"Would you like to accompany me with tending to the plants again?" She stopped her movements to look at me with an excited gaze.

"Of course! I have so many questions about them! I was hoping to go again and I'm just so lucky you asked me! My! I'm honored!" I giggle as she rambles on and on about how much she appreciates the textures and the beauty.

I think I might get use to this.

Rosy helps me dry up and fits me into a simple dress like the one I wore yesterday. The dresses weren't flashy or showy like the ones Calista from the future wore. She'd wear ones that showed her cleavage since it was something that she was proud of, something the heroine barely had. I cringe when I thought about how it looked on her.

Honestly, why would anyone ever wear that? I think I'll stick to plain and simple.

I stare into the mirror as Penelope began on my hair, "I hope my Lady doesn't mind me doing her hair." She quietly spoke.

"It's alright, I don't mind at all." I assure her.

"Alright, I will begin my lady." She brushed through my hair making sure there were no knots before taking the comb from the table. She combed my hair in her hand, making sure not one strand stuck out. Her hands moved swiftly and within mere seconds, my hair was put up in a fancy ponytail that made my hair look more better than it usually did.

"..." I stare at my appearance. My uneven length of hair was leveled out at the end and my short bangs were pulled back into a ponytail. My hair wasn't in my face as much as it was when it was down and I could finally get a good look at it. My face held chubby cheeks making my nose look smaller, my lips weren't as chapped as it was before but pretty flushed from the bath, and my uneven skin tone was fading into my actual skin tone.
