They finally reached Mugi's room after a long walk in the hallways.
"Sorry for asking this Ojou-sama, but where is my room?" Ritsu blushed in embarrassment.
Mugi just smiled. Of course, Ritsu doesn't know where or how to get to the room. She was new, it's her first day.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Just go straight then go left. There, you can see a door with the sign saying 'Guest Bedroom'. That will be your new room." Mugi explained.
"A-Arigatou. Well, goodnight, Ojou-sama." Ritsu bowed and took off to find her room. Mugi watched Ritsu as she disappeared turning left in the corridor. Mugi smiled and closed the door.
"Man, the hallways are really long." Ritsu said out loud.
Finally, she found the Guest Bedroom. It was just saying it there on the sign on the door.
"Oh, finally!" Ritsu exclaimed happily.
She opens the door, staring at the super huge room in front of her. She oohed and aahed. Who on earth needs a bedroom the size of half a football stadium?
"Ah well, might as well get to sleep already." She said.
"Even if I didn't take a shower!" She said carelessly.
Ritsu jumps on the bed with arms spreading out. Few minutes later, she was fast asleep.
-RITSU'S DREAM-
"Your fired." Mugi said coldly.
"W-What?! Ojou-sama, give me another chance!" Ritsu begged.
"Stop calling me Ojou-sama. Leave now!" Mugi shouted.
"Please!" Ritsu begged once more.
"Rei!" Mugi called out.
"Yes, Ojou-sama?" The tall man asked.
"Get this pathetic girl out of my sight." Mugi ordered.
"Hai, Ojou-sama." The tall man began to grab Ritsu by the collar, dragged her along the floor and throwed her out the mansion.
"Your no good for a butler." Mugi said coldly.
Then, the doors slammed shut loudly.
-END OF DREAM-
BEEP BEEP BEEP
Ritsu groaned. There was an alarm clock beside the bed on the small table.
"Grr...Shut...up..." Ritsu smashed the stop button with anger, and then went back to sleep.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
"Hello, Rikkun, it's time to wake up." The person says outside the door, who was Mugi. Ritsu then looked at the alarm clock to check the time. 6:30 it says.
"It's.... Too.... Early...." Ritsu complained.
Mugi then opened the door, seeing Ritsu with the pillow on her face.
"Did you forget your working as a butler? This is the time butlers should wake up. Come on now, Rikkun." Mugi said.
"For crap sake...." Ritsu complained softly.
"Fine." She said.
Ritsu got off the bed, not bothering to make the bed. Mugi couldn't care less about that.
"Okay, come. Breakfast is ready." It was Mugi's turn to guide Ritsu to the destination. Obviously.
Just as they reached the dining room, Ritsu saw a really long table covered in white cloth. Three plates were already set up.
On the plates, there were about pancakes stacked of 5 with honey syrup and butter. Next to the plates, it had a knife, spoon and fork... With tissue, too.
Ritsu's mouth was wide open, admiring the sight of food in front of her. Mugi saw her reaction and grinned, thinking it was cute.
"Ah, I see Tainaka-san has finally woken up from his slumber." Satomi said, smiling.
Ritsu rubbed the back of her head sheepishly. She had no idea how long she had been sleeping. Which she assumed was pretty long.
Suddenly, Ritsu's belly made a growling noise. Ritsu blushed in embarrassment.
Both Mugi and Satomi giggled at the cute sight.
"I see your hungry. Okay then, let's go and eat, shall we?" Satomi said. Everyone then took their seat on the chairs. Ritsu's mouth was drooling, she was indeed hungry.
"Ittadakimasu!" They said in unison. Ritsu began wolfing down her food, while Mugi and Satomi eat slowly and admiring the cute sight in front of them.
In just a few minutes, Ritsu finished her food.
"Thanks for the food!" Ritsu said. "I'm beat!".
" You must be really hungry. "Satomi teased. Ritsu looked away, blushing furiously. "'Course I was..."
Mugi just giggled. "Really very hungry. You finished in in three minutes! That's a record!"
"Oh, stop it! You're embarrassing me!" Ritsu said, covering her face as she blushed and smiled sheepishly. Satomi and Mugi giggled again.
~×~
"It's huge!"
"Thank you for the compliment!"
Mugi, Ritsu and Satomi stood beside the huge pool with an extremely tall diving board. Ritsu had her mouth wide open. Satomi sweat-dropped.
"That's my reaction when I first saw this." She said.
"It's nice to have money." Ritsu said, sweat-dropping as well. Mugi giggled.
"This is where you'll be starting the real butler test."
"REAL BUTLER TEST?! I'VE ALREADY- I'VE JUST- I KNOW-"
"Is that how a butler should react?" A deep, manly voice said. Ritsu turned to look behind, and saw a tall, old man wearing black spectacles. He wore a tuxedo, too. Ritsu instantly became scared of him. He just looks so important.
"Hello. My name is Himura Rei and I am the 'Special Butler'. I will be your boss as a butler." He said, adjusting his spectacles. Ritsu then stood straight.
"H-Hai!" Ritsu said, sweating. Ritsu then instantly thought of something which made her wonder.
'He looks so familiar...even his name...where did that come from...?' Ritsu thought, staring at Rei.
"Ah! Rei! You're finally here." Mugi said, clapping happily. Ritsu sweat-dropped at Mugi.
'How can she do that in front of a strict man?!' Ritsu thought, shocked. Rei then walked to Mugi and gave her a big hug.
"I'm always here, Ojou-sama!" Rei said, smiling sweetly.
"Mou, Rei! How many times do I have to tell you to just call me by my name?" Mugi said, pouting cutely. Rei then let go from the hug.
"But you're my Ojou-sama and I'm the special butler! I must call you Ojou-sama." Rei said. Mugi pouted even more. Rei then turned back to Ritsu, who had her mouth wide open at the scene that just happened a few seconds ago.
"Well then, Tainaka-san. Let's start the test now, shall we?" Rei said. Ritsu nodded vigorously. Rei adjusted his spectacles again, staring at Ritsu ever so scary. Ritsu flinched at the sight.
"If you pass, I fully allow you to be Ojou-sama's protective butler," Rei said, and laughed creepily afterwards.
"But if you fail, you shall leave and never return."
Ritsu pondered awhile. Does she want to pass, or fail? Being Mugi's butler was a huge shock for her. All she did was save her from a bunch of bad guys. But on the other hand, she get to protect an important Ojou-sama while living in luxury. Finally, she made her decision.
"Deal."
