Chapter 4- Rey Gardener.

××××××××××

It was around 9 a.m, a special someone came bursting into the girls room, waking her up.

"M-miss, it's time to wake up..."

the someone with a maid clothes said.

the girl lift up her body slowly, the feeling of her body pain went away.

she looked at the girl with a maid clothes.

She has a pretty face, fluttery eyelash, brown hair with a bun, and a height between 163 cm. {i only learned about centimeters, sorry readers UwU}

"Miss? you mean me?" the girl said.

"Huh? O-of course miss Gardener..."

(who else?) <–– maid's inner thoughts

"Oh..." (Gardener...could it be 'my' last name?

i see...) <----Haruhi's inner thought.

"fufufu~" the girl laughed mischievously.

"hey, what's my current age miss...?" the girl asked.

"Oh dear miss Gardener, im just a mere maid, no need to add miss, m-my name is Lucia Levanoli, and miss Gardener's current age is 12 years old." Lucia explains.

"hm..." the girl was deep in thought, but after a while, she smiled and heard a chuckle from her mouth.

"Lucia huh...? What a nostalgic name" Her smile was as bright as the lamp- no, even her smile is radiating brighter than the sun.

The maid went all red seeing the girl smiled.

"A-aah..." the maid stutters.

"Oh- did i say something silly?" the girl tilt her head sideways.

"N-no miss! U-uhm...the Duke and Duchess wishes for the miss's arrival" The maid said.

(Duke? Duchess?) she thought while confused was written on her face.

"Hey, can i call you sister Lucia?" she asked innocently.

"E-Eeehh!? B-but my statu-"

"does status matter here? Well, you looks slightly older than me. And since i am not allowed to call you with a 'miss' then a sister would be fine right?" she looked at the maid with stoic face with a little tone of begging.

The maid flinched, but gave up otherwise.

"Please call me whatever you want, miss Gardener." she slightly bowed.

"Drop with the formalities, what's my full name?" the girl asked again.

"Oh! d-does miss didn't recognize your name? It's uhm...Rey Gardener.." Lucia answered.

(M-my name almost sounded like Rachel Gardener from Angels of Death...what a coincidence) the girl thoughts.

"Thank you big sister Lucia" she said with a big bright smile.

The maid isn't used to see the miss to smile so bright or cutting formalities. A rare sight indeed.

but anyway, since it's the miss's commands, she has no ways but to accept it with a smile

"Yes, miss Ray Gardener"

"no, no. Drop the Miss, just do Ray Gardener"

"b-but miss-"

Ray glared at the maid, the maid halted and panicked.

"R-Ray...Gardener..." the maid stutters.

Ray sighed.

"Sorry, i don't meant to scare you like that"

×××××××××

About the Duchess and the Duke that Lucia mentioned, i've been thinking it for a while. It's a 80% possible chance thag they're 'my' parents. I hope they're much better than the old parents i had in the hellish life.

I come to see a big door, larger than my room i'd say.

"Is this the place?" I questioned her

"It seems so miss Gardener."

Really? Again, stop it with the formalities. Im sick of hearing it.

Aaah~ what a pain it is to be a 21st century child with a suicide addict. Good thing im not a teen idle.

"If you're done thinking, i shall take my leave" Lucia whispered softly to my ear.

"Ah, sure" after i said that, she left.

I embraced myself for impact.

I slowly opened the door, it made a small creaking sound.

There i see 2 people, A woman and a man.

The man has a silver hair and greyish eyes and the woman has an Obsidian like silky straight short hair with a butterfly hair ornament on her hair.

The woman reminds me of someone though...i seem can't put my fingers in<--- (referring to Akiko Yosano)

i made a small curtsey to them. I just had a vibe i need to do it. No, more like a gut feeling...

"Good morning" i spoke lightly. that was instinctly.

Then the Duke, or i would like to prefer as 'father' pointed at the seat beside 'mother'.

"What seems to be the problem that made you both called for my existence?" I asked politely. I knew this world is like surprisingly a very formal and polite country. (proven by Lucia)

Not only that, the place brings a majestic aura.

They glanced at me finally and coughed.

"Rey, i would like to announced something i hope you might not decline" my mother started.

"And what would that announcement be?" i sipped a cup of tea that was placed in front of me.

"It's hard for you bu-"

"You're getting engaged with the Crown Prince" my father cuts my mother.

.....

i spat my tea in the cup right now.

wow im still 12, yet im already engaged with a real life prince.

Is this the historical year? So i really am reincarnated.

I wanna die again than getting engaged with someone a complete stranger TvT.
