Chapter 10 - Tuner in the house

The tuner was laying on the floor munching the fruits she had in her hand, the fruit basket was laying beside her with its remaining few contents on the floor, most of the things that had been arranged the previous day were on the floor again, the house was a total mess, things that weren't supposed to be opened were opened, clothes laying around the house, jars of fruit jams were opened wide into the air, but Turlip wasn't annoyed s a bit, instead her eyes were focused on the opened jams, most of them had gotten lower than they were before and the tuner's lips were stained, she walked to the jams and picked one of it then gestured to the tuner if she was the one who licked them and the girl nodded then, took a huge bite of the mango she was holding, an idea popped into Turlip's head she closed the jams and put them back in their places then walked to cleaning the house, as she cleaned the tuner watched her, she seemed to be understanding that things weren't to be thrown around like she did, she picked the fruits that were scattered on the floor and placed them back into the fruit basket then she picked her wobbly self up and walked to a corner of the room then sprawled her self on the floor and began to munch her fruits again, Turlip sighed she didn't believe she was actually expecting a naive tuner to help her clean, soon she finished cleaning the house and just immediately Ixora walked in, "wow, you are done cleaning it seems my help is no longer needed" she said as she settled on the sofa and Turlip turned to her "I saw you peep through the window fifteen minutes ago" she said and Ixora's smile turned awkward "....let's forget that, we have a long day ahead of us, this blonde girl needs some training" Ixora said as she walked to pull the lazy tuner from the floor, while Turlip walked into the kitchen, she returned minutes later with a plate of rice mixed thoroughly with an apple flavored jam then placed it in front of the tuner whose curiosity had ignited again, "what is this?" Ixora asked "rice with jam" Turlip answered "so, what is she supposed to do with it?" Ixora asked but Turlip said nothing, she gestured to the tuner that it was food and the girl scanned the plate with her eyes, sniffed the food and finally deeped her hand into the rice then put some of it into her mouth, she became silent and stiff for some seconds then she continued with the rice "she ate it!, she ate the rice!" Ixora exclaimed "she usually ate just fruit and weed, so her body couldn't adapt to other food, she could eat the rice only because there is a fruit flavored jam in it, this is the way she would eat for now until her body adapt to normal food" Turlip explained and Ixora sighed, "I really wish I had a brain like yours" she said "I hope you don't" Turlip said but she said nothing more, she turned her attention to her phone leaving Ixora thinking.

At the palace, the queen sat by her husband as she massaged his head, a maid was bent beside her with a massage cream in her hand, "darling, you have to calm down, you shouldn't get stressed because of this stuff, I think you should rest now, you have been busy all day, I would handle the rest" she said but the king ignored her, he kept, flipping and flipping through all the reports that was sent to him, but none of them were good, they found no clue about the tuner's were about, he gulped the tea in front of him and gritted his teeth, "if I should lay my hands on that person who kidnapped our tuner, I would end the person and his entire family" the king threatened "calm down, calm down my darling" the queen said and the man heaved a long sigh "hum, darling, do you remember what you promised me yesterday, about the Louis V bag" the queen muttered and the king turned to her with a terrifying expression "is that what your sweet and kind words are all about, I should have known you wench, scram!" He yelled and the queen flinched, "I, a wench, you fat fool, you promised to buy me the bag when i decided to forget about it and now that there is a problem its suddenly my fault for reminding you about the bag, i shouldnt have expected much from you, its just a pain that i have bragged about it in front of all those stinky ladies" the queen yelled and stormed away with her maid behind her, "damn you slut" the king cursed with veins popping out of his head and his face purple with anger.
