73. Taking off

The maid was silenced by my answer, and I, now clothed in an intact getup again, walked outside, and took my bag from her feet, putting it over my arm, I opened the window and threw the flowers out together with the vase.

Hearing the glass crash, I felt better.

"Do what you want. I don't care anymore." Crawling under my bed, I took my cat and stuffed her in my bag, before going to the drawer and packing my treasures. I left the cutlery and plates behind, as they weren't appropriate to take with me on the school trip.

Having everything I needed, I let the maid stand there and walked down the corridor. She soon ran after me,

"What are you doing? Are you running away?" She had to jog beside me because I was walking so fast.

"What is it to you?" I think she wanted to get another bribe out of me, but no way; this was either my flee fund or money for a private detective.
