Kaede (bios;kaede) moved to risakotachi ~
"You’re the most important thing in the world to me." [SayaKaede from twinxdragons]
«Sayaka-sama…» she whispered, before letting out a shy, small smile. She still wasn’t used to hear those things yet, not from someone she adored so much. «Hearing this makes me the happiest, Sayaka-sama!» she nodded, gently wrapping her fingers around the other’s hand. Her heart was really beating fast, the faster it could get— yet her head kept worrying about the other. She didn’t want to get in between the other girl and her job.
"Things are going to get better" (SayaKaede)
With a little sigh, she nodded— she really wanted to believe it. She wanted to hug Sayaka-sama, lean her head on the other’s strong shoulder and close her eyes, knowing nothing could have gone wrong if she only let the other protect her… yet, it was Kaede’s time to protect her lover, now. Protect Sayaka-sama, destroying herself. All she had, her own body… everything was fading away. She was too weak, in both body and soul, even to work. She was sure everybody noticed, even Her Majesty; it was just too obvious.For a moment, her lungs got empty— she just couldn’t breathe anymore. Gasping a little, just like before bursting out crying, blood run away from her already milky cheeks, making her dizzy. Just for a moment. It was just too much to bear, all those lies…
«I wish they really could…» she murmured, still a little out of breath.
After the incident in the garden, Sayaka kept an eye over Kaede most of the time, trying to sneak aroun between shifts to ask her how she's feeling and also taking her of her. That day,the schedule was repeated and Yamamoto arrived to Kaede's room with a cup of green tea and some food on a tray. She asked the other maids to leave them alone and they didn't opposed, knowing Sayaka's status. "Kaede-san... Hello" She smiled a little.
Turning towards the door a bit surprised, Kaede gave a big, happy smile and just cheerfully called out «Sayaka-sama!»—… but in a matter of seconds, her smile softened, becoming more quiet, almost as just a polite smile she would give out for anyone. Having to do so, her heart ached a little; she was sure the other noticed that change already. She always notice everything.«Today too, good morning…!» she said again, quietly, giving a muffled giggle. «I’m almost getting used to your visits— I’m feeling a little spoiled.» she added, trying to look as natural as she could in her sheepishly looking away from the guard. She’s never been a good actress as school, yet she was pretty good at keeping secrets… and this time, it was an important one. A really important one.
- "Okaede!!" - Toshiko comes in, worried. - "I heard about the incident, how are you feeling?"
«P-Princess…» she said surprised, bowing deeply in a small panic moment. She thought no one knew about it, yet— but Her Majesty is so nice, worrying for someone as low as she is. «Please, don’t worry about me. I’m fine— everything went well, in the end.»
Feeling her eyes watery already, she looked at the wall in front of her: not again, not there. She knew the man was chasing after her, silently, keeping up with her speed no matter how fast she tried to walk in her tight kimono. It was a scenario she knew already, a scenario she hoped to avoid now she works directly for Her Majesty. Turning, she looked at the man in the distance, getting closer and closer-- she had no way to escape from there, from him. It was like all the other times, even when she was just twelve. Before it has been cooks, or people doing the lowest jobs in the house-- now it's noble people, but nothing really changes. They all want the same thing, and will have it.
One step, two steps, three steps-- he's getting closer, so close he could touch her. Kaede feels her heart beat fast, hard inside her chest, her eyes wide, scared and watery. His hand stretched over, touching her shoulder in an harsh grab, his pants already humid on her cheek, when she felt something hard against her chest and... she suddenly knew what to do. Quickly she grabbed the small whistle she kept near her heart, and pushind him away started to run as fast as she could, lips blowing air in the whistle. «Please Sayaka-sama, please... find me.» she thought, feeling the mad run after her already.
Third day serving the Princess of Japan, and she still haden’t seen her. That was the life of a servant, never knowing what you’ll do and when— yet, she was grateful. Till now she never had the chance to meet Hime-Sama, but she worked for her all that time… and they told her soon she will be part of the team helping her to get dressed and ready, so this is good isn’t it? ~ Sitting on a bench in the Royal gardens, she took a deep breath and smiled lightly— knowing she was in such an coveted position, made her efforts seemed worth it. Maybe not the abuses… but sure the efforts.
Not entering the room yet, but leaning on the lobby's wall near the Princess room's door, she took a deep breath. She almost was late, because of that jerk who works in the kitchens-- she's been there for two days and men are already bothering her. Why is it always like that? Now she didn't have brusies anymore...
«Hime-Sama, it's time to get dressed... will your highness please allow me to help her?»
