After that, Sofia and Maria continue to work on the housework chores of the mansion at the gallery room.
Sofia says ,"Lets continue to work on our chores."
Maria smiles and nods.
Sofia works and teaches Maria patiently the work that she can't.
Together, they cleaned up the dust on every painting pictures at the gallery room.
Then, they mopped the floor.
Maria is so happy ,because finally this time she could work on the chores with a friend for the first time.
They talk and cleaning the gallery room together.
And Maria also could do the chores correctly.
Maria thinks that Sofia is a good friend and a good teacher.
They do the cleaning until its done.
After they finished the chores at the gallery room ,they go to the assembly hall.
When they arrived at the assembly hall ,they see Arina and Aleksandra are together cleaning the staircases.
Then ,Arina and Aleksandra looks at them.
Arina smiles and says ,"Oh ,hello Sofia ,are you also have chores at the assembly hall as well?"
Sofia replies ,"Yes."
Aleksandra ,then says ,"Alright ,then ,help us cleaning the staircases, its very exhausting to clean just by the two of us."
Sofia replies ,"Alright ,I'll help."
Maria still shy in front of the other maids, because she's afraid that they don't accept her and mock her out.
Then Arina says ,"Sofia ,whose the cute woman besides you?"
Sofia ,then says ,"Oh ,this is Maria ,she's my new friend ,she is a very shy person ,but if you talk and get closer to her ,I bet you'll like her."
Arina ,then says ,"Oh really ,alright ,I want to get closer to you as well. Hello ,Maria ,I am Arina and the maid besides me is Aleksandra."
Then, Maria says ,"Nice to meet you ,Arina and Aleksandra."
Arina and Aleksandra smile and says ,"Nice to meet you too."
Then, they become closer and they clean the staircases together.
Just by the four of them working together ,the chores at the assembly hall are finished quickly.
Then ,Arina says ,"Phew ,its finally done ,thanks for your help ,Sofia and Maria."
Sofia and Maria smile and nods.
Suddenly ,then Dmitri goes to the assembly hall.
Sofia sees Dmitri and she says ,"Hello ,Dmitri ,its been a while I'm not see you."
Dmitri then says ,"Oh ,hello Sofia ,yeah been a while."
Maria ,Arina and Aleksandra just stood and stay quiet and look at them having a conversation.
While, Sofia and Dmitri are talking.
Sofia says ,"Where have you been all this time? ,I rarely see you."
Dmitri replies ,"I and all the other servants are truly busy since Ms.Varvara's death."
Sofia then says ,"Yeah ,a lot have happened."
Dmitri ,then says ,"Sofia and all of you ,you all better be careful ,the murderer is probably still in this mansion."
Sofia smiles and says ,"Alright ,thanks for the warning ,Dmitri."
Then ,Dmitri leaves the assembly hall.
Arina ,then asks ,"Who is that servant?"
Sofia replies ,"Oh ,that servant is Dmitri ,I met him at the first day ,he's the servant whose shown me the way to my room."
Then ,Arina says to Sofia ,"Hooooo ,are you close with him?"
Sofia smiles and replies ,"No ,no ,no ,no ,its not like that ,Dmitri and I are just friends ,I wanted to be friend with all of the maids and servants in this mansion."
Arina ,then says ,"Really ,you don't have a feeling at all towards him?"
Sofia says ,"Not at all."
Sofia says on his mind ,"I wanted to be friend with Dmitri ,its not because of love ,but its to use him ,he's very useful for an intel from the servants.
So ,he could tell me every information on the servants's side."
