Chapter 74 - Mess

This month was like a dream for Lily. As Zack was with her and not only they had cute couple moments and some funny fight. He also helped her in rehabilitation and taught her many exercises that made her recovery though painful but fast. Finally she was back to normal. After having their lunch they were having casual stroll when she noticed a digital board in one of the building. She went near and noticed it was missions divided in colour pattern.

Red denotes mission given by the government and yellow and green were missions of independent parties with green being the easiest. Zack looked at Lily's engrossed face and pulled her outside to the alley at the end of the road. " Those mission are not for you" he said. Lily pouted " but why. I have passed the entrance test and now my body is fit". Zack smirked " now you are happy you forgot the punishment I assigned you. I delayed it for your healing not cancelled it. I have told you before that I am your boyfriend but in Knight family ground I am your senior. Do you understand me Soldier".

Lily saluted accepting his order " yes sir, I understand". Next day Zack went back to capital city because he himself couldn't see her as errand boy and he knew to let her experience the true nature of army she needed proper interaction with all level of soldiers". Next morning Lily woke up 1 hour before the entire troop. It was dark outside and very few woke up at this hour. Lily was given responsibility of Dark regiment. It also consist of 5 other new members that joined with Lily, including Zee, Zen and Edward.

As Lily was given responsibility of being an errand boy everyone was her senior in this troop. She didn't want to give anyone opportunity to criticize her or in worst case point finger at Zack. She polished their shoes, belt buckle and ironed their uniforms. After arranging everything. She leaned against the door to wait for everyone but sleep took over as she woke up at 3:30 AM to arrange everything. While Lily was dozing she was suddenly drenched by something that was awful in smell. She opened her eyes wrinkling her nose to find Edward grinning at her.

After laughing for a while he turned serious "Errand boy you dared to sleep while everyone was awake. This cow dung with urine is good morning gift to you. Do you like it". Lily glared at him. But he didn't let her off and again asked " did you enjoy the gift from your senior errand boy Lily". Lily gritted her teeth and said " I enjoyed it sir, thank you for considering me". Edward grinned " well said now prepare breakfast for us soldier Lily". She was confused " but it is already prepared in the mess". He glared " did I ask you that errand boy. You have to do as I ask you to do. You will prepare breakfast for 25 members of our regiment in 30 minutes. Do you understand errand boy". Lily saluted " yes sir. I will start now". On the inside she was cursing Zack for dropping her in this mess.
