Previously: So I got lost again met with the duke first though, found Clara, went to a girl's residence as a man.
[ You should go to jail]
"..."
And now a girl with glasses is asking me weird questions. I'm doomed.
"Why are u asking this question?"
I ask in my heavenly voice.
"If it's personal than duchess need not to reply"
The girl says backing away and sulking down in dissappointment, I cough clearing my voice.
(I should just tell them the truth, after all they are already 18-19.)
"So the answer to that question is no."
I fix my posture and calm my inner face.
(Let's just go now.)
I look at the crowd that was frozen for a certain while and then bursted into screams.
"Why not duchess! " a girl shouted.
"We waited 2 months, and thought that someone will finally melt the duke's heart!"
I stare at the crowd and scratch my face.
(Never thought that intense banging can melt the duke's heart.)
After a while of screaming The glasses girl raises her hand and everyone stops.
(Is she the oldest or some? they seem to obey her well.)
The glasses girl claps her hand as Clara pushes me inside and closes the door. The glasses girl crosses her arms and grins.
"Duchess pardon my late introduction. I'm Tiana the love specialist."
"The love wha-"
Before I could say something two girls pick me up and throws me in one of the bouncy beds.
(Why am I always getting picked on?)
I cry in a dramatic way and glance at Clara who was enjoying the whole situation.
(Clara you traitor!)
The crowd now circles me like bodyguards and Tiana sits on the bed in front of me and a
detective movie vibe covers the atmosphere as a squeaky background music starts playing.
"So duchess, you haven't done the deed yet?"
"Yes?"
I feel tensed up by the sudden attention towards me.
"But did you at least touch any part up until now?"
I nod in agreement and Tiana smirks .
"Which part?"
I look at the girl in front of me with boredom.
(They got serious issues)
I cough again because in this world everyone has tuberculosis.
"Hands"
The gloomy atmosphere changes into a sparkly one.
"Oh good!" she cracks .
"What is?" I ask
"At least you've made progress, now I will give the duchess some tips to make her life bright!"
I stare in gloom.
(My life was always bright)
I look into thin air and a girl slapping my face pops in my visual image and I put a hand on my cheek.
"Duchess first let's change your get up."
One of the bodyguard hands me a dress. I look at the dress and giveTiana a glance.
"This is a night dress."
"Indeed it is, now please wear it."
The night dress was a red body suit type gown if that's how you say it.
"Is it necessary?" I give a look of concern and Tiana nods immedietly.
(What did I get myself into?!)
[I just wanna be one of your girl's tonight.]
(... I'm a boy)
[and I'm a horse]
*sigh*
.....
"It's too tight!" I shout as I stand inside the dressing room.
"It is supposed to be tight duchess." Tiana shouts back.
(Ugh!)
I look down at the dress I was wearing and give a sigh.
(I couldn't fit the ballons inside .)
"Mistress come out!"
Clara bangs on the door as I flinch back.
(Clara just you wait!)
I clench my fist and slowly step outside revealing my dress that was long enough to touch my ankle.
( Thank goodness. it's long and I can wear my pants.)
As soon as I came outside, the crowd filled with cheers like that of a concert, Tiana holds my hand and guides me to a mirror.
"Duchess sit down."
I slowly sit down and the girls pick up different make up items, I look at them, my eyes holding a drop of anxiety in them.
"Unm girls what are you gonna do with these-"
My sentence was cut off and a crowd covered my small precious body. After 2 seconds later the crowd moved away and I discovered a heinious witch in front of me.
"Aah! who is this!?"
I cover my face to protect my beauty getting stolen by the witch.
"Duchess, that's you."
Tiana cracks and I slowly open my eyes, revealing a witch again.
"No way"
I look at the mirror and see a reflection which had big red lips, big eyelash and a disgusting makeup.
(Seriously what did they do to my face?!)
I touch my face in despair, as tuberculosis happens, I mean Tiana coughs and squeezes my shoulders tightly, pulling me upwards and making me stand up.
Then she scans my body up and down for a few times followed by a tongue click.
"Something is wrong...".
Tiana speaks as she grabs a pair of big cloth cutting scissors from one of the drawers.
"Let me make it short."
Tiana comes towards me with a big smirk as I throw my arms at her, pushing her away.
"No need Tiana!"
(Shit if she cuts the dress my secret will get revealed)
[Where is your boxers?]
(On my bed.. )
[oh well..]
"Duchess don't move! let me cut it or how will you seduce the duke!?"
Tiana shouts as she forces the scissors on me.
(Shit my secret!)
I push Tiana as her scissors touches the dress.
"No!"
"..."
[Oh what a nice view]
Tiana stares at me in shock as I look down, my eyes also widening.
(What the-)
The dress was cut up to my stomach or let me just say, my waist. My stomach revealed in front of hundred of gazes.
(No no no no! how did it become like this! Why are the maids behaving like this?)
My body starts shivering as I step backwards.
(No no no!)
I run towards the gate as Tiana reaches her hand out to me.
"Duchess don't go!"
I run without looking back, my face flushed with embarrassment.
(Did they see? am I doomed now?)
I exit the building and run towards the forest. My breathe shortening and my body slowly getting weak, my feet suddeny stumbles on a rock and I fall down.
"Ugh!"
I open my eyes slowly and infront of me was a small pond in view.
(Woah... just how many water supplies are there?)
I stand up and walk up to the pond, seeing my own heinious reflection.
(Ugh! I should just wash it off! I had enough with their nonsense. That demon will never open up to me even if I seduce him!)
I sit down and pick the pond water up with my hands, slashing it on my face.
(Phew that feels nice.)
Suddenly, slow thumping noise rings my ears and I stop washing my face and look to my right, my face wrinkles immediately at the seen sight.
(Leo?)
