Plenty emotions. Chapter 9

Sunrise, the sun had finally come up meaning it was time for Aiel, Nel, and Mrs.Asuka to wake up. Both girls had already woken up and got ready, they both opened their doors and met each other's eyes. "Good morning Aiel" "Morning Nel!" both girls headed upstairs, Aiel went to wake up Mrs. Asuka and help her get dressed to go downstairs and eat. Nel started making breakfast, the twins had now grabbed a three days worth to make breakfast faster, help Mrs.Asuka, and to be faster. Nel served bread with boiled eggs, and to drink milk, Nel placed the meal down and hurried outside to dig out the container that had their milk and water. Nel kept digging till she saw a square like figure and hurried to grab it, she opened it and grabbed three out of the six bottles that were in the dull container. She reburried the container and headed back, Nel opened the door and saw Aiel helping Mrs. Asuka sit and started getting ready to serve Mrs. Asuka tea. Aiel grabbed a couple leaves from her basket, she now left at a small table in the kitchen. She grabbed one of the bottles that Nel had brought that contained cold water, Aiel made sure to get the cleanest cup to serve Mrs. Asuka's tea in. She mixed the water and leaves together making sure to stir well. Nel sat at the table and pulled the lid off the two milk bottles, she placed one at Aiel's side of the table and one in front of her. Aiel soon came back and gave Mrs. Asuka tea, all three started talking about the knights' departure as they continued to eat. "I heard that the knights and the general took a couple young ladies with them" Aiel commented, "how would you know? You didn't go out today." Nel said sternly.

Does she think I'm provoking her?

"Yesterday the ladies were talking about it, not to mention some girls had their bags outside their home." Aiel looked down at her food while saying this. The general?" Nel asked quietly, "he was around Kasuma the whole time, she had her bags with her too." Nel stayed quiet. Nel was seething with anger inside, she dare not let that out. "How wonderful," Nel smiled.

Such pair suit each other, both actors that are greedy. One bullies for a man to have riches and puts up a good girl font in front of the man. The other acts as a caring man, in reality he wants many lovers and even betrays them for another.

Nel hurried to finish her food and so did Aiel, trying to not fall behind in work that would have to be done soon. Both girls soon got up and started their house chores before they went to do Mrs. Asuka's job to earn money. Nel went outside to bring back yesterday's clothes that were hung to dry, Aiel stayed to clean up inside. While picking the plates and bottles from the table Aiel remembered something, something that hadn't crossed her mind before talking to Nel earlier.

Kasuma bullies Nel, she's the reason why Nel had bruises and cuts that day, she's the reason Nel is so bitter today.

Aiel gritted her teeth. Such anger she felt towards Kasuma, for daring to hurt and bully Nel. Aiel quickly swept and cleaned the table being mindful of Mrs. Asuka who was still eating. Mrs. Asuka soon finished eating and Aiel cleaned up, after cleaning the small mess Aiel helped Mrs. Asuka back to bed and made more tea for her. She set it next to her on a small stool. Aiel soon left to join Nel who had finished bringing in the clothes and was now waiting for her to come outside to head to work. Aiel quickly descended the stairs and opened the door, seeing Nel outside waiting for her, she went over to Nel and smiled. Both girls started walking to work hoping for today to be a short day and it was, soon tomorrow came, then a day after tomorrow, then a day after that...soon days became weeks and soon weeks became a couple of months.

Aiel and Nel woke up today as normal once again getting up, dressing up, going out of their rooms, meeting in the hallway, going upstairs to eat, and going to wake up Mrs. Asuka. Today was different, as Nel came back with two milk bottles and one water bottle she noticed something. She set the bottles down on the table and sat down, she looked at Aiel who had her head down on the table, she stared at Aiel who still hadn't noticed Nel's gaze on her. Nel had enough and gave her a good whack on the head. A loud "OWWW" could be heard throughout the house. "You forgot to wake up and help Mrs. Asuka again!" Nel told Aiel, now tired of her new habits, "sorry, sorry. I'm still half asleep...well not anymore." Aiel glared at Nel as she stood up to go on and wake up Mrs. Asuka, Nel glared right back at Aiel and stood up to make Mrs. Asuka's tea. Nel grabbed the items she needed to make the tea and made it, she set it down on the table waiting for them both to come downstairs soon. Nel looked around observing her surroundings as she was waiting.

It's been a good seven minutes, why aren't they coming?

Nel decided to go upstairs and see why they hadn't come downstairs yet.

Perhaps Mrs. Asuka doesn't want to wake up? Mrs. Asuka would never put a fuss, maybe she had enough of Aiel waking her up and wanted to sleep in.

Nel giggled at her thought. She stood up and walked upstairs to Mrs. Asuka's room, she was about to walk in the small room, but at the entrance you could see a frantic Aiel. Aiel pointed inside the room and Nel hurried in to see what could be wrong. Wrong she really saw, both of them.
