After a full day of events, I finally got to settle down and relax in my room. "Young Miss..." 

"Hmmm? What is the matter, Emily?" I asked looking at the little girl next to me. From the look in her eyes, I could tell she seemed to be worried about something.

"Ummm… Where do I sleep?" Emily asked, her cheeks blushed. I looked at her a bit confused and then remembered we never did settle her in. 

But before I could say anything, Alissa spoke up: "There is a servant's room over there. It is not that big but it does have a bed, a closet, and a desk and chair. I spotted it earlier while I was looking around. My guess is that Able forgot to mention it."

"Then that is settled. Looks like we will be roommates Emily!" I felt more at ease knowing that Emily would be in the same room as me. I was actually worried about her safety with Sara still wandering around. I did not want her to get caught up in some kind of scheme and end up getting hurt or worse… 

"Then I will settle myself in, Young Miss. If you need me please call for me." Emily gave a small bow before heading to her new bedroom.

"She is a cute girl. I would hate to see what might have happened to her if she were to be stuck at the Baron's estate alone." Alissa said as she watched the small retreating figure.

"Emily is kind. She is also very young. Although I may only be a few years older than her, she does not understand the outside world. I do not see her as a servant. To me, Emily is more like a little sister. Sadly the poor little girl was sold off. But at least she was sold to the maids guild and will have their protection for the time being. But once she hits my age that protection will disappear. By then I hope to buy her contract and set her free." I explained. 

The maids guild only protected the young. Once they hit a certain age they would no longer be protected and should have the know how to survive within their job. It was also then that the contract from the maids guild could be bought so that the maid would no longer be bound to the maids guild. 

"Rei, you are really kind…" Alissa paused her words and looked at me with a strange gleam in her eye before asking. "How about we go take a bath before dinner?"

"You can go, I will take one later." I was not going to jump into the bath with this girl any time soon. I was afraid I would lose my chastity before I even came of age if I did. Alissa was my friend but I feared for my purity if I were to undress in front of her. I gazed at my love interest on my HUD and sighed.

Love Points: 4

Love Interest: 

Able: 7

Alissa: 3 

I still did not understand why Alissa's love interest was rising. I was not doing anything to speak of to raise any kind of affection level with her. Unless… Maybe she was an 'M'? Did she like being neglected? I really could not understand. As for Able's affection level rising, I was actually really happy to see this. Just remembering the warmth of his hand as he held it today made me blush lightly. 

Was this what it was like as love began to bloom? Was I slowly falling in love with Able? I couldn't help but get lost in my own little world. Love was a foreign concept for me. Although I understood what it was to actually experience it on my own still made me confused. Every action Able made warmed my heart and made me grateful towards him. 

I shook my head as I realized something very important. I have only known Able for a short span of a few days. He was mainly doing these things out of obligation after seeing me naked. I know my love interest meter was rising but this was not something I could fully rely on. What if this system was wrong with its numbers?

"Rei how could you say my numbers are wrong!?" The system suddenly yelled out in a whiny tone, giving me a headache.

"Can you not yell? I am just thinking on a what-if basis. It's not like I have any way to confirm whether it is right or wrong, right? Don't get your panties all bunched up just because of my thoughts and… Stop reading my personal thoughts, it's disgusting!" I couldn't help but yell back. I was irritated that the stupid system could read my personal thoughts.

"But I can't wear panties or any clothes for that matter! How can I have them in a bunch!?" The system suddenly asked as if it had been wronged. which made me wonder why it only pulled out that line from what I had just said.

"It is a figure of speech. Just calm down. " I let out a sigh. I felt like I was going crazy with the stupid system in my head. I wonder if Able would mind if his fiancee was a little nuts….

"Rei? Can I come in?" Speak of the devil. To think as I was thinking about him, Able would suddenly show up. 

"Sure come in." I replied. Alissa, who was to my side, let out a huff. 

Able opened the door carrying a large bag. "Rei, my mom wanted me to give you these clothes. They are for your little maid." 

I was a little surprised by this. I did not even think to get Emily clothes earlier since so many things had happened. Thinking about this, I suddenly hated myself. How could I let a young girl go around with only one set of clothes? Luckily Ruth was thoughtful enough to provide these for Emily. "I will have to thank Mother then later..." I mumbled to myself before calling for Emily: "Emily, come here."
