On the exact day of the long-awaited salon party, Molitia’s bedroom had been very hectic. With a complete thorough bath in the morning, Pillen and Lili had quickly forgotten to take their rest just to dress her up.

Molitia had already donned the dress that she prepared for the big day. It was a dress that accentuated her slim figure by lacing up her slender waist. Lili’s eyes sparkled as she placed some jewelry on Molitia.

“Madame, you’re extremely beautiful.”

“You’re so pretty!”

“Your face is so white, which made me ponder on how to boost up your color tone. But then, I don’t think I have to be worried about it anymore. You’ll probably be the prettiest among others!”

“Please don’t exaggerate me too much.”

Despite saying so, Molitia was still smiling softly at the reflection of her face. It wasn’t even half bad to see herself projected in the mirror.

The two maids were still fixated on their masterpiece that had born under the touch of their very own hands. They were bursting with pride to see how their Lady was such a pretty woman.

However, their appreciation couldn’t be held much longer. Pillen immediately remembered of her duty, thus bringing in a thick coat for her.

“It’s too bad that you have to cover yourself up, still we can’t have you catching another cold.”

Pillen then draped the coat over Molitia’s shoulder. In an instant, a thick cape could be seen to cover up most of her clothes. The outerwear would’ve been definitely taken off once she entered the salon but at the same time, they just couldn’t ignore the outdoor’s cold air.

Madame is such a delicate person. Pillen’s eyes stiffened at that thought as she fastened the cape.

“That’s right, that’s right. It has gotten especially cold these days. Have you taken the medicine with you?”

“I’ve gotten the meds with me, just in case. You don’t have to worry too much…”

Disinclined to see how those two were still busily moving around her, Molitia eventually stepped in to mediate the issue at hand.

“Please stop. Pillen, Lili, I’m not even staying overnight. I’ll return in just a few hours.”

“But…”

The two maids were still looking anxiously at Molitia with their hands full of cloaks. They didn’t intend to ignore their Madame. However, fear seeped in at the thought of their Madame catching a cold yet again.

They heard that it had been blusterous these days. What if Molitia were to flutter away? If it was someone as light and petite as their Madame, the wind would definitely blow her away. The salon had already declared that servants could not attend, hence their worries were piling up even more.

“I wouldn’t be of any help to you during that time.”

“Don’t you worry. I’ll be right back.”

Molitia painted a soft smile that was akin to a blooming flower amidst the spring breeze. It was evident that those spring flowers could never withstand the cold wind. The hesitating hands of those two maids started to regain back their energy.

“I just can’t. Madame, please wear one more.”

“Madame! The gloves…!”

“Why don’t we pack for you another set of extra clothings? It’s for when the weather gets cold unexpectedly…”

Molitia was suddenly outnumbered again as she was pushed back towards the initial discussion on what dresses should Molitia have worn.

Molitia immediately shook her head to refuse those urges of theirs, but somehow, they had managed to slip on the gloves on her hand as well as another coat on top of her already donned cloak.

However, it was right at the moment when Pillen was still feeling unsatisfied with Molitia’s current clothes that she decided to bring another pair of shoes, adorned with thick fur.

“Madame, your carriage awaits.”

“Oh, I’m coming!”

Molitia replied as quickly as she could at the voice of the butler, who sounded just like a ray of light. Unaware that it was already time for her to depart, Pillen kept on glancing a concerned look towards her.

“You don’t have to worry too much. I’ll be back safe and sound.”

“Madame…..”

Pillen’s eyes unexpectedly glistened. That particular look on someone that had taken care of her a lot more than usual had softly tickled Molitia’s mind.

Molitia had always thought that she was much better at separating between public and personal affairs as compared to Lili. Nonetheless, Molitia smiled softly before giving a gentle stroke to their hair.

Pillen’s face went immediately ablazed at Molitia’s soft touch.

“I’ll be back soon, Pillen, Lili.”
