Cinder: I'm having tea with my older sisters on the terrace.

Lee: Look what I brought. *pulls out a jar* Tadaaaa! A new jam!

Cinder: So wonderful.

Ama: How nice.

Lee: Humph. Ama is getting better at giving me genuine compliments lately.

Ama:  I was just appreciating the jam.

Lee: Kergh!!!

Cinder: Oh, please don’t fight too much.

Lee: You’re not getting’ any!

Ama: My, my.

Lee: Hmph! *tries to open the jar, to no avail* Ngh!

Ama: We’re waiting, Big Sister.

Lee: The lid’s too tight, it won’t budge.

Ama: Well, hurry it up! I can practically taste that jam.

Cinder: Umm…

Lee: Oh, you can, huh? Then you open it!

Cinder: That’s…

Ama: I’m far less robust, I’m afraid.

Cinder: Um…

Lee: Well, aren’t you useless!

Cinder: I should be more proactive.

Lee: Maybe I can use Dragonfist to open it?

Cinder: Mind if I try?

Ama: You?

Lee: Heh, heh. Go for it. *hands the jar to Cinder* Not that those noodle arms’ll do any good!

Ama: Don’t injure yourself now.

Cinder: *grips the jar and turns the top with an unexpected amount of force* Oh! *pulls off the lid* It opened!

Both Sisters: Huuuuh?

Ama: As I recall, Cinder was made to do most of the heavy lifting when she lived at the orphanage. That would explain her arm strength.

Lee: Wow, so I guess you have a specialty or two.

Cinder: I guess so!

Lee: Oh…We need a spoon. *gets up* I’ll go get one.

Ama: That would have been useful earlier.

Lee: Button it! *goes inside*

In The Distance: *rustle sound*

Cinder: Big Sister Ama. What was that just now…?

Ama: Something must have happened.

Cinder and Ama: *proceeds around the corner*

Ama: Why, it’s…Octavius! What happened?

Octavius: *on the ground, injured* Young ladies…I’m sorry for showing you such a distasteful sight. I was doing maintenance on the fountain…When I fell of the ladder.

Ama: Oh, how awful. We’ll call for help. *starts to head inside*

Octavius: Oh, I couldn’t possibly bother the two of you.

Cinder: Um…The fountain splash will get you wet…Why don’t we move you a bit?

Octavius: I…I don’t dare. *is rather portly* I’m pretty heavy, so…

Cinder: Don’t you worry. Even Big Sister Lee is impressed by my strength!

Cinder and Octavius: One-Two! *gets up with a wobble*

Cinder: *trips over her own foot* Whoa!

Cinder: Oh, no! I have to protect Octavius at all cost!

Lee and Ama: *appears, supporting Octavius around his other arm and from behind*

Lee: *glares* Youuuuu…

Cinder: I-I’m sorry for taking on more than I could handle.

Lee: No matter what your specialty is…You can always depend on your big sister, you know? Don’t try to do everything on your own.

FLASHBACK

Cinder: I have to work hard. Even if I’m alone, I…

PRESENT

Cinder: You’re right.

Ama: You’ll just wind up on the ground if you’re depending on Big Sister.

Lee: Hey! Cram it over there! Why weren’t you by her side to begin with?!

Ama: I tried to call for help.

Lee: I didn’t hear anything.

Ama: If you hadn’t forgotten the spoon to begin with…I couldn’t leave my little sister wobbling like that.

Lee: You’re just spoiling to pick a fight, huh? *backs up and bumps into the ladder* Oh. The ladder!

The Ladder: *falls over into the fountain, splashing all of them*

Cinder: In the end…We all got soaked.

Octavius and the Sisters: *laughs at the outcome*

Laura: That’s enough! *approaches* Why are you all soaked like wet rats?!

The Sisters: Mommy! Mama! Mother!

Octavius: I’m very sorry, Madam! This is all my fault!

Cinder: Mr. Octavius!

Laura: You…are dismissed.

Octavius: Yuh…Yes, Madam!

Laura: Go to your room…And wait for our Family Doctor to examine you! As for you girls, dry yourselves immediately! You’ll catch a cold!

Octavius: Miss Cinder.

Cinder: Yes?

Cinder: I have to apologize to Mr. Octavius! Had my sisters not been there, we would have fallen in!

Cinder: Um…

Octavius: Thank you very much. I work under a family full of such kind young ladies. It makes me happy that I’m lucky enough to work here.

Cinder: N-Not a all.

Lee: Let’s hurry up and change so we can get back to our tea.

Cinder: Mother. I wonder if someone like me is of any use. I hope to be of more help to everyone here.

~

Cinder: It’s been some time since I’ve come to live with the Glass family.

In The Distance: You’re kidding! That’s the foreigner girl they told us about at the last gathering? Ugh! I can smell the destitution from here!

Amina: Miss Constance, please let me take your coat.

Cinder: Did she just say “Miss Constance”…?

FALSHBACK

Ama: And “Constance” would be considered your cousin. In other words, she’s part of our extended family.

DIFFERENT FLASHBACK

Amoncio: There may be other people who won’t look favorably on you.

PRESENT DAY

Cinder: Could it be?!

Cinder: Sorry for not greeting you sooner! My name is Cinder Fa-

Constance: *is tiny* Gracious! What an eyesore to find such a humble girl in such an illustrious place such as this!

Cinder: *looks down* H…How adorable!

Constance: Talk about a stupid-looking face! This is why I hate commoners, let along foreigner.

Cinder: I’m very sorry! I’m working hard each day to become worthy of the Glass family.

Constance: Is that so?

Cinder: Huh?

Constance: Prove it! Receive me like a lady of my station deserves!

Cinder: Entertain Miss Constance?! Can I even do that?

TRANSITON

Constance *gesturing to the platter in front of her* And…this is?

Cinder: This is pudding. It’s so sweet and melts in your mouth. It’s a very popular dish right now.

Constance: *glares* Don’t be ridiculous! Did you think that I would be satisfied by being served something “trendy”?

Cinder: I…I’m very sorry! Big Sister Ama said it was delicious a few days ago, so…

Constance: …… *starts eating* Hmph…It is pretty tasty. The sweetness is just right, and the bitterness of the caramel enhances the overall flavor.

Cinder: Huuuuuh? *bewildered*

Constance: Still, offering me this without pairing it with the appropriate drink…There’s not a drop of coffee to be seen!

Cinder: O…Oh, I’m sorry.

A MOMENT LATER

Cinder: Here, I brought milk and sugar too.

Constance: That’s much like it.

Cinder: Big Sister Ama likes to drink this coffee without sugar…but Big Sister Lee and I always add heaps of milk and sugar to it.

Constance: …… *takes a cup* Heh…Such a childish palate. Coffee should be taken black.

Cinder: Amazing! Not a grain of sugar?!

Constance: *slurred and sweating* Is derishish…

Cinder: Huuuuuh? *bewildered…again*

Cinder: *panicked* Miss Constance, your face is a scrunched up! I beg you to add some milk and sugar!

Constance: *still slurred and struggling* Sho noise! Sho noise! Dun look down on meh! I can drink it like Big Sister Ama!

Ama: Constance.

Cinder: Big Sister Ama!

Ama: You aren’t troubling Cinder, are you?

Constance: That’s not…I was just-

Ama: Cinder, thank you for taking care of Constance.

Constance: *glares* Sh-She can’t even host me properly! An outsider like you isn’t fit for the Glass family! *runs away*

Ama: My goodness…

Cinder: Miss Constance!

Ama: It’s fine. Leave Constance to me. But might I ask you to do something in exchange?

FLASHBACK

Man: Constance, we’re going to go greet Madam Glass.

Constance: Of course, Father. Mother.

Woman: Can you reach the banquet hall on your own?

Constance: Yes.

Crowd: *bustling*

Constance: *walks out and sits in the corner*

Ama: The hall is this way.

Constance: *looks up* It’s Miss Amanda…From the Glass family.

Ama: You’re all alone until your parents finish their business? Then you should come sit next to me until they’re done.

PRESENT DAY

Constance: The seat next to Big Sister Ama…has no space for me anymore. *steps out towards the corner*

Ama: *already sitting in the corner* You’re late.

Constance: EEEK?!?! Big Sister Ama! Why’re you here?!

Ama: You always come to this spot when you’re feeling uneasy.

Constance: H-How did you get here so fast?

Ama: There are several secret passageways in this hotel for just such occasions. Along with my Windrush, which grants me a boost to my step. *pulls Constance into a hug* I wanted to properly introduce Cinder to you.

Constance: I thought she’s taken you away from me. I was so sad. That’s why…

Ama: You shouldn’t hurt others just because you’re hurt. You know how lonely it is to be by yourself, don’t you?

Constance: She’s the same?

TRANSITION

Cinder: Oh! They’re here!

Constance: *looking down at her feet* I’m…Sorry for what I did earlier. *peeks up*

Cinder: Did you say something to offend?

Constance: Huh?

Cinder: I was so nervous…But now I know there are a lot of things to consider when receiving a guest. I learned so much!

Lee: Really, this girl! Let’s just sit down already. *gestures to the gazebo*

Constance: Sit down? *looks into the gazebo* Cookies and tea…How did you know that these were my favorite?!

FLASHBACK

Ama: Promise me this…Please don’t tell her it was my idea.

PRESENT DAY

Cinder: Just a guess. Did I do well?

Constance: Hmph…Well…It’s enough…For me to consider you my rival.

Lee: Constance!

Constance: I want to sit next to Big Sister Ama! But…You can sit on the other side.

Cinder: Sure.

Lee: *chats away*

Cinder: *giggles*

Ama: *pours the tea*

Constance: I hear a wonderful café opened up on the main street recently! Why don’t we go there together next time.

Laura: *nods in approve, hidden in the background*

~

Cinder: What in the world happened here…? Everyone’s being way more solemn than usual.

Laura: Cinder.

Cinder: Yes!

Laura: The three of us must go out for something.

Ama: Even though we can’t bear the thought of leaving you alone…Would you mind watching the hotel while we’re gone?

Lee: That tears it, I’m staying!

Cinder: Thank you, Big Sister Lee. But please don’t worry about me. I’ll take good care of the hotel.

SOME TIME LATER

Cinder: Well, then…What should I do?

Cinder: I could read some books in my room. That’s right…I could take a stroll around the garden. But…I’ve barely been left on my own since arriving here. I guess I am a little lone—

Rhodes: *appears* Haah! Haah! Haah! Hah! Hah!

Cinder: Shall we watch the hotel together?

Rhodes: *BEEEEAM!*

Cinder: Well, then, Rose. What should we do?!

Cinder: I’ve had my share of run-ins with dogs in the past. There were a lot of strays where I used to live. I had to work hard to keep them away. Since I was always getting rid of dogs…It makes me happy that now I get to play with one.

Cinder: How ‘bout we start with fetch?

Rhodes: Huhh! Huhh! Huhh! Hah! Haah!

Cinder: There! Go fetch! *throw ball*

Rhodes: *franticly hops around Cinder*

Cinder: No, that’s not it! The ball! Go get the ball! Rose!

Rhodes: *runs and grabs his leash*

Cinder: Oh, you want walkies? *attaches the leash*

Rhodes: *ZOOOM!*

Cinder: EEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

Rhodes: *abruptly stops then points to the ball*

Cinder: You brought me to it instead of fetching it?

Rhodes: Haah! Huhh! Haah! Hah! Huhh!

Cinder: You’re happy…That’s all that matters!

Amina: *approaches with a tray* Miss Cinder.

Cinder: Yes?

Amina: Will you please give Rhodes his treats? He’s learned to sit and shake, so feed him after saying “Good Boy.��

Cinder: Oh, of course! *takes a bowl of three biscuits from the tray and places it on the ground*

Rhodes: Huhh! Huhh! Haah! Haah!

Amina: One more thing. I’ve also prepared your tea, Miss Cinder. Please enjoy it on the terrace.

Cinder: Oh my! Thank you so much. Rose, let’s eat our snacks togeth-- *turns to find only two biscuits in the bowl* A biscuit’s missing. *stares at Rose*

Rhodes: *averts us gaze before turning back with a smug look on his face*

Cinder: Be…Be strict, now!

Cinder: B…Bad!

Rhodes: *rolls over and presents his tummy*

Cinder: !!!!!!!!Oh, Youuuuu!!!

Cinder: Sooner or later…I’ll learn how to scold you, you know! *vigorously rubs Rose’s tummy*

SOME TIME LATER

Ama: Big Sister, such fluster is unbecoming!

Lee: Look who’s talking, you’re usin’ your Semblance!

Ama: I am not using Windrush, I’m speed walking!

Lee: I just don’t want her to feel lonely in this hotel!

Laura: Girls, you needn’t kick up a fuss. It seems…she wasn’t lonely after all. *opens the door to Rose’s room to reveal a sleeping Cinder cuddling a sleeping Rhodes*

Cinder: Currently, a foreign child like me is being taught table manners.

Lee: It’s actually rude to fold up the dinner napkin neatly at the end of a meal.

Cinder: Terribly sorry, Big Sister Lee.

Lee: You’re lousy at remembering things!

Cinder: I’m in such a woeful state after being taught so many times…

Cinder: Perhaps it’s because I lack the proper bloodline of a prominent household…I’ll be ridiculed as the blemish of the Glass name.

Lee: *clenches her fist* Whoever says that’ll get a taste of my Dragonfist!

Cinder: Such fire…

Lee: “Learning” isn’t accomplished by blood or name. I used to be awful at studying.

Cinder: Is that so?

FLASHBACK

Intellectual Man: The young lady of the Sommer family was able to get full marks on the last test.

Agreeing Man: Indeed. Not like Miss Lenalee who hates to study.

Lee: The elitist rabble called me “The embarrassment of the Glass family” behind my back. Even so, I was still the eldest daughter of the Glass family. That thought alone kept me going. But eventually saught got rubbed on that wound…

Gossiping Maid: Sure, she acts strong-minded…But I heard that she’s not actually a child from the Glass family.

Conversing Maid: Well, that explains it.

Lee: I thought they were talking about me…And that nothing was expected of me because I wasn’t my mother’s child. And that that was the reason she was so strict with me.

Lee: *tugs on Laura’s skirt* Ma…Mama.

Laura: *pulls away slightly* Call me Mother.

PRESENT DAY

Lee: My Semblance awakened that day. And I rebelled a lot after that.

Cinder: Big Sister Lee…

Cinder: I can’t believe that an energetic girl like her has such a troubled past…

Lee: I misbehaved every day.

Cinder: What did you do?

Lee: The tutor who taunted me got his briefcase all shredded up.

Cinder: Oh! That’s pretty bad!

Lee: All those gossipy servants got crushed acorns and timber stuff all over their rooms!

Cinder: It’s really bad, but…

Lee: And I poked holes into every sock in the hotel.

Cinder: It’s different from what I imagined!

FLASHBACK

Laura: *holding a sock with a hole* And why did you do this?

Lee: *glaring* They started it! I’m gettin’ revenge.

Laura: Hm.

Lee: A-And you’re the same! You don’t even like me ‘cause I’m not your real daughter, right?!

Laura: So that’s why you won’t even call me “Mother” anymore. You know…Eavesdropping is poor manners.

Lee: But…!

Laura: Don’t worry. You are most assuredly my daughter.

Lee: Then…Then why’re you so strict with me?

Laura: Because you’re the eldest daughter of this family. For that reason alone, you have responsibilities that your younger sister will never have. I didn’t want you to buckle under that pressure. But it seems I was too strict. I still lack experience. Even though I was thinking of your future…Making you suffer now is putting the cart before the horse.

Lee: Huh?

Laura: It’s fine if you no longer with to call me Mother.

Lee: Huh? B-But…

Laura: Until you wish to call me Mother again, call me this…Mama!

Lee: Mama…

PRESENT DAY

Cinder: Huuuuuh?!

Lee: Mama didn’t abandon me. That’s why I decided to only call her “Mother” again once I’ve become a prominent daughter befitting this family. I’m going to keep polishing myself until then. I’m still pretty inexperienced though. So you see…We’re kinda the same. We can still shine brighter than this!

Ama: *appears* May Cinder take a break if you two don’t plan to study?

Cinder: Huuuuuh?!

Lee: Hey! Don’t interrupt me!

Ama: Well, I was trying to wait until you two were finished. But I couldn’t help myself.

Lee: May as well take a break, then. I know how hard it is to make progress when you’re feeling flustered.

Cinder: Mother…Big Sister Lee called herself “inexperienced” but…To me, she is a very dependable big sister.

FLASHBACK

Lee: *crushing up acorns and timber with her Dragonfist* Rebel! Rebel!

Ama: Big Sister, why are your hands glowing red? Also, why are you crushing up nuts and twigs?

Lee: I’m raising the flag of my counterattack.

Ama: It’s bad to crouch with your legs spread like that.

Lee: Bad girls don’t care about that kind of thing.

Clumsy Salesgirl: *drops a trinket box with a loud GAKLANGG*

Senior Salesgirl: Seriously, again?!

Clumsy Salesgirl: I-I’m sorry!

Senior Salesgirl: How long has it been since you started working here?

Clumsy Salesgirl: I’ll clean it up right away!

Senior Salesgirl: You’re lucky it was an old trinket box that never sold…Now, hurry up and get the broom!

Clumsy Salesgirl: Yes, Ma’am.

Senior Salesgirl: And be careful not to cut yourself on the shards. Be quick, but don’t be sloppy! Our most loyal customer will be visiting us today.

Clumsy Salesgirl: You mean?

Senior Salesgirl: That’s right. Mrs. Laura Glass! A lady who married into the old and prominent Glass family. Dignified and beautiful, all those caught by her sharp eyes cannot help but surrender in fear.

Clumsy Salesgirl: I’ve heard rumors of her being the embodiment of strength and beauty. I can’t believe I’ll be meeting her.

Other Salesgirls: *shuffle around nervously*

Clumsy Salesgirl: All the senior salesgirls look so nervous! I’ve heard that she is a very strict lady. If I’m the least bit careless…

Head Salesgirl: Line up!

All Salesgirls: Welcome!

Laura: So that Cinder doesn’t get lost…be sure to hold her hands tightly!!!

Clumsy Salesgirl: Huuuuuuh???

Laura: But don’t spread out so far that it will cause trouble for other guests!

Clumsy Salesgirl: She’s super “mom-like”! Why is everyone so nervous?

Several Salesgirls: Mrs. Glass! Thank you for visiting! I so looked forward to seeing you again! This is new tableware that just arrived today. Hey! I’m the one assisting Mrs. Glass today!

Clumsy Salesgirl: Eee? Eee? Eee? Eee? Eee? Whaaaaat? A customer service free-for-all?

Laura: I’m not shopping for myself today. I’m here to purchase daily necessities for my new daughter.

Clumsy Salesgirl: Another Lady of the Glass family? She must have a graceful bearing.

Lee: S’bout time! Let’s go already!

Ama: Ha, I won’t lose.

Clumsy Salesgirl: These ladies are super aggressive!!!

Both Sisters: I’m so getting Cinder something better than you!

Clumsy Salesgirl: Wait…Are they actually nice? I’m sure their younger sister is a gentle and lovable person.

Cinder: *stiff* L-Look at the size of this place…I’m so nervous!

Lee: Hold your head up, will ya?

Clumsy Salesgirl: This girl is completely stiff!

Lee: I’ve really been wanting to buy you this. *pulls Cinder along* This’ll put a pop of color on your face! A Rouge Stick, to paint the lips rosy.

Cinder: It’s so expensive…

Lee: Aw, don’t worry about that! I’ve been saving up my birthday money!

Clumsy Salesgirl: So even high class ladies save their birthday money?

Ama: This is from me. A Boxwood Comb, to help add shine to hair.

Lee: You spent all your money on sweets. Can you even afford a Boxwood Comb?

Ama: I help around the hotel. Unlike you, I have an income.

Lee: *holds up a box with the Rouge Stick, the Boxwood Comb, and a number of basic daily necessities* What else do you need?

Laura: Girls. It’s fine to escort your little sister. But is there nothing you want for yourself, Cinder?

Cinder: Oh! Um…

Laura: *arches her head down, closer to Cinder* Go ahead, you can tell me.

Cinder: The trinket box on that shelf… *points to the broken trinket box*

Clumsy Salesgirl: This is something I broke earlier...I was going to pay for it myself.

Lee: You like that sort of thing? Kinda simple.

Cinder: Yes! My departed mother loved Water Irises…It reminds me of her. And I wanted a treasure box to put the gifts I received from my sisters in. *shines*

Clumsy Salesgirl: She’s so sweet I’m getting cavities!!

Senior Salesgirl: But that item’s broken…If it’s a trinket box you’re after, I’d suggest that one inlaid with Mother of Pearl we received yesterday.

Laura: No, we’ll take the one designed with Water Irises. I’ll pay full price, of course.

Senior Salesgirl: We couldn’t possible ask you to pay for it.

Laura: This is the first item Cinder has chosen for herself. As a mother, I want to grant her that wish.

Senior Salesgirl: But…it’s broken!

Laura: That can’t be helped.

Senior Salesgirl: Mrs. Glass?

Laura: I’ll repair it using the Mistrali Kintsugi method! If Cinder doesn’t mind, naturally!!!

Both Salesgirls: Kintsugi…Huuuuhhhh???

Clumsy Salesgirl: Amazing!

The mad dash to serve the Glass family has grown more heated once again.

Lee: A foreign child is joining our family today.

Ama: Oh my, your eyes look particularly evil today, Big Sister.

Lee How can I smile on a day like this?

Lee: Since I was a child, I was taught…

FLASHBACK

Laura: There are many types of families. Don’t think that blood ties are everything. Becomes girls who can value others as much as you value yourselves.

PRESENT

Lee: And it because of Mama’s teachings that I don’t care if we’re connected by blood or not. But…

Lee: You look like you’re in a good mood.

Ama: Yes, I’m finally getting a little sister.

Lee: Even though we don’t know what kind of girl she is?

Lee: That’s right. The Glass family is one of the few prominent families in Atlas. There are a lot of unscrupulous people who are after our fortune. I’ll get rid of anyone who threatens Mama!

Laura: There you girls are. It’s time.

Lee: First, I’ll see what kind of girl this child from another woman is…Guess I do feel bad that she lost her mom, though.

Cinder: *in a deep, low kneeling bow* My name is Cinder Fall. Please take good care of me.

Lee: *stares* Contrary to her weakly knitted eyebrows…She has the powerful eyes of someone who has endured and overcome adversity. Her feet and hands look so worn…She must have worked a lot. It’s damaged, but you can tell her black hair has been regularly combed…She was certainly raised by her mother with love…This girl…

What Lee said: Huuh…? Talk about smelly.

What Lee wanted to say: First, you’ll need to take a bath!

What Lee said: And what a spiritless face she had.

What Lee wanted to say: I’ll have you feeling refreshed right away.

What Lee said: The last thing we want is trash in the hotel!

What Lee wanted to say: A clean and fresh-looking pair of clothes would look good on you! And a ribbon in your hair would be best!

Lee: Oh, dear. She’s so nervous that she’s gone pale. Amanda should say something, too.

Ama: *giggles*

Lee: The heck are you laughing at?!

Ama: Lacking tact as always, Big Sister. That fact that you don’t realize your disadvantageous personality may be another form of happiness.

ONE BATH LATER

Cinder: Um…Are you really sure…I can have such beautiful clothes?

Ama: They suit you.

What Lee said: Hmph…It’s secondhand, but you’re so easy to please.

What Lee wanted to say: This is just the beginning! After this we’ll eat, then we’ll have you measured at the tailors, so we can have some new clothes made for you…to wear…

Cinder: Thank you very much…I’ll treasure this.

Lee: *stares and restrains herself*

Lee: *stares and restraint weakens*

Lee: *stares and restraint weakens more*

Lee: *restraint breaks* *pulls Cinder into a hug* *Shot To The Heart!!*

Ama: Whatever are you doing, Big Sister? Let’s go eat.

Lee: I got a new little sister.

Cinder: Um…Why don’t I take him back to his room?

Amina: But…

Cinder: If it’s no trouble…I’d really like to do it.

TRANSITION

Rhodes: Hah! Hah! Hah!

Cinder: *carrying Rhodes* Back to exploring the hotel with Rose.

Rhodes: *hops down from Cinder’s arms and scampers around the corner*

Cinder: Rose is responding to something! *looks around the corner to find Lenalee reading in a gazebo* Oh, that’s…Big Sister Lee! Big Sister Lee is the eldest daughter of the family and normally comes across as kind of cold. But she looks quite innocent when she’s reading a book.

GAZEBO

Maid: Ma’am, your tea. *places a tea tray on the table*

Lee: Thank you. *notices something* Hm? What’s this? Your button is about to fall off?

Maid: I’m so sorry! *turns to leave*

Lee: *grabs the maid’s sleeve, pulls a pair of thread shears, and clips the loose button*

Maid: Huh…?

Lee: Better to remove it now before it gets lost during work. Don’t forget to sew it back on.

Maid: Thank you very much…Please don’t tell the Head Maid about this.

Lee: Like I’d waste my time doing that.

Maid: Again…I’m so sorry.

AFAR

Cinder: Big Sister Lee always speaks so bluntly…

GAZEBO

Lee: The rules for the Glass Family’s servants are very strict. But if Miss Faye fires you over something like this…I’d no longer be able to drink your tea. Not that I’m telling you to not take pride in your appearance.

Maid: Yes!

AFAR

Cinder: But her words are actually very thoughtful.

Cinder: Big Sister Lee is so cool…I admire her a lot. *picks up Rhodes and continues their exploration*

TRANSITON

Voice in the Distance: Lady Amanda, the gardener will take care of the flowerbeds.

Cinder: That voice… *turns to find a concerned housekeeper and custodian*

Housekeeper: It’s unbefitting for a lady of your standing to befoul her hands with dirt!

Ama: Am I to understand…You think me incapable of gardening?

Housekeeper: Wh-Why no…Not at all!

Cinder: The second eldest daughter, Amanda, has a smile that can make chills run down your back. However…

Ama: I need to know more about plants to understand flower arrangements…Please teach me.

Housekeeper: Of course!

Custodian: Let me get my tools.

Cinder: She’s good at making tea and dancing too. This may be the result of all the hard work she does in secret.

Housekeeper: Would you like us to call for Lady Lenalee to learn with you?

Ama: You must be joking…I’m fine on my own.

Cinder: Big Sister Amanda is very kind to me…However, she always fights with Big Sister Lenalee. Maybe they don’t get along well? It’s not my place to pry.

Cinder: But I feel like that’s a little lonely…

Ama: Now, then. I’m sure Lenalee will take a stroll around this area tomorrow. *pacing back and forth* She’ll notice the Gerbera Daisies and come closer for a better look…I should dig a pit for her near there.

Cinder: *astonished*

Ama: *shakes her head* No, such an uncertain strategy might get Cinder caught in the crossfire.

Cinder: *monotone stare*

Ama: Lenalee might not even realize the flowers have been changed…Perhaps, I should do something to the fountain instead?

Cinder: *continued stare*

Ama: No, that won’t work…Lenalee wouldn’t do something like this. *clenches her fists* Ugh…At this rate…I’ll never be able to provoke Lenalee! *on the verge of tears* Please…give me strength!

Cinder: *sweat-drop stare*

Rhodes: Hah hah hah!

Cinder: *bring Rhodes up to her face*

Rhodes: Hah hah hah!

Cinder: There might be other types of “closeness” that I’ve yet to understand.

Rhodes: *shiiiiine*

ANOTHER TRANSITION

Cinder: You have a very big room, Rose. *gently pets Rhodes* It’s so nice!

Rhodes: Hah! Hah! Huhh!

Voice in the Distance: *yammer, yammer*

Cinder: Huh? *opens the door to find Amina Faye talking to one of the maids*

Amina: How could a servant of the Glass family do something like this!

Maid: I’m so sorry…

Amina: I can’t believe you kicked over the bucket of cleaning water. It shows a lack of focus on your work.

Laura: Is there a problem, here?

Maid: Madam!

Amina: I’m terribly sorry! I was careless and got the floor dirty! I’ll clean it up…

Laura: No need to lie. You two are…to change your clothes first! You’ll catch your death if you stay wet!

Maid: HMMMMMM??

Laura: There’s no need to fuss over a dirty floor that can be wiped up.

Amina: Yes, Ma’am!

Maid: Right away!

Laura: More importantly weren’t you planning to leave early to visit your sick mother today?

Both Maids: Huh?

Maid: How does Madam know…?

Amina: Is that why you’ve been so restless today?

Laura: I just happened to hear about it. There should be some Gerbera Daisies blooming in the garden. You should take some with you for your mother.

Maid: Th…Thank you very much!

Cinder: Mommy is…quite strict, kind, and sometimes playful. But that’s not all…At the places I used to work for…the owners hardly ever considered the workers. I had assumed it to be the norm…Here, Mommy even takes the flowers in the garden into consideration.

Cinder: Ever since coming here…I’ve been surprised by so many things.

Cinder: Mother. This family is full of new things. As a member of this family…Will I be able to become as wonderful as they are? It may be arrogant to think this. But…I’m going to try my best! Mother, please continue…to listen to the stories about my new family.

~

Neo: *walks into the Mirage and pushes her way through the rabble until she’s face to face with Hei “Junior” Xiong* *speaks with the voice of the Curious Cat* We’re here for Kin!

Junior: Well now, you must be the esteemed Mrs. Torchwich. *takes Neo’s hand and kisses it* The kid’s told us quite a bit about you.

Neo: *gives her hand a slight tug but not enough to force it free from Junior’s grip* Torchwich was our husband. We are Rui Harime. Now, where is the boy?!

Junior: *looks around while still holding Neo’s hand* He should be around here somewhere, however….I can’t just let him go, he’s tonight’s main event. But we could probably work something out. How would you like to fight in his place? You could be a star.

Neo: No, thanks! *pulls out Hush and cuts off her arm just above the elbow*

Junior: *looks down at Neo’s severed arm still in his hand with an astonished and surprised expression*

Neo: Excuse us, but we need to bring Kin back home as it is quite late. *proceeds back through the rabble to look for her son*

Jabberwalker: *grows from Neo’s shadow and starts to light the building on fire as Neo walks*

Neo: We’re so sorry, so sorry, our deepest apologies. We ruined this fight club with one hand, sooo sorryy!

Junior: What have you done, you stupid bitch?!

Neo: You wouldn’t beat an unarmed weak woman and her cat would you?

Junior: You just cant take him away from me, we have a contract with him!! *pulls out a written contract*

Neo: *swipes the contract*

Junior: ?!

Neo: *literally eats the contract* Omnomnomnomnomnomnomnomnomnomnomnomnomnom

Junior: You Cunt!!! I’ll kill you!!

Jabberwalker: *engulfs Junior in flames*

Junior: Aaaahhhhh *burning alive*

Neo: *turns to find Kin staring wide-eyed* Oh, there you are, Sweetie! We’ve been looking for you.

Pumpkin: 0_0

Neo: *picks up Kin with her one arm* Finally, we can go home! *leaves as the building burns down around them*

OUTSIDE

Pumpkin: Um…Mom, are you…okay?

Neo: Oh, do you mean the arm? *holds up her stump of an arm* No worries, it’s an easy fix. *spontaneously grows a Curious Cat claw before quickly reforming it into a normal human hand* See!

Pumpkin: Not what I meant but okay.

Cinder: Since they’ve allowed me to live here, I’d like to pay them back by shining their shoes or something!

Cinder: Big Sister Lee, may I borrow your shoes?

Lee: Huuh? You want to do what now?

Cinder: Gasp! Of course, she’d hate the idea of someone like me shining her shoes!

Imaginary Lee: We have our own people for that. I don’t need you!

Cinder: I’m so sorry for my sudden rudeness!

Lee: Round-toed shoes would look way better on you than my pointed ones. *puts her heels on Cinder’s feet* See? They look strange on you.

Cinder: Huh?

Lee: What about the size? Does it hurt anywhere?

Cinder: No, I wasn’t asking to wear them!

Ama: *appears from out of nowhere* My boots are too large for you and wouldn’t match your clothes. I’m sure there are shoes that accentuate your features better!

Cinder: I wasn’t planning on wearing them!!!

Both Sisters: *arguing about shoes*

Cinder: Huuuuuh??

Laura: Girls, just look at this mess.

Lee: Mama!

Ama: Mother!

Laura: And I’ve heard everything! You haven’t listened to Cinder at all, have you?

Cinder: Mommy…I…

Cinder: I just wanted to shine everyone’s shoes as thanks.

Laura: What kind of shoes would make your heart dance?! Feel free to speak!!!!

Cinder: No! I…I wasn’t thinking of wearing them!!

LATER

Laura: First, we need to get measurements.

Shoemaker: *measuring Cinder’s foot* Hoooh…What thin, yet strong feet.

Lee: Of course. She’s my little sister.

Ama: That has little to do with her feet.

Cinder: Mother, my new family…runs completely wild sometimes.

Cinder: My hands are rough and scarred. I wonder what the others must think of them?

IN SECOND ELDEST DAUGHTER AMANDA’S CASE

Ama: *inspecting Cinder’s hand* Tsk, Tsk…Just look at the state of your hands.

Cinder: I…I’m sorry! I used to work with water all day long…They’re so unsightly…

Cinder: She’ll think they’re unbefitting of the family…

Ama: Well…that just means this is proof of all the hard work you’ve done. *rubs medicine on Cinder’s hands* If the salve doesn’t do the trick, we’ll have a doctor look at them.

Cinder: Huuuuuuh???

IN ELDEST DAUGHTER LENALEE’S CASE

Lee: *grabs Cinder’s hand* Ha! Look at your hands. Talk about some dirty nails.

Cinder: I’m…so sorry.

Cinder: Such dirty hands…I hate looking at them too.

Lee: Listen. *starts painting Cinder’s nails* Painting your nails can improve your whole mood. Dressing yourself up is for yourself! You hate your hands, don’t you…In that case, I’ll cast a spell on them so you’ll like them again. I bet Ama gave you some medicated salve too.

Cinder: Wow. My nails are so pretty now.

IN MOMMY’S CASE

Laura: *examines Cinder’s hand* Your hands are quite damaged.

Cinder: I’m sorry for burdening your eyes!!

Laura: You are to come with me this instant.

Cinder: I wonder if not taking care of yourself properly is an evictable offense!

Laura: The weather will get colder from here on out and aggravate your hands! Let us all go out shopping for a new pair of gloves for you!

Cinder: Huuuuuuh?! Whaaat?!

EXTRA

Cinder: *holding hands with Ama and Lee*

Ama: It’s cold, so we should hold hands until we find you your gloves.

Lee: Guess we gotta, or you’ll get lost, huh?

Laura: Single file, girls. You’ll block pedestrians like that.

LATER

Cinder: So warm…

Cinder: We ended up holding hands on the way back too.

Cinder: I thought I’d sweep the hallways since I woke up so early

Cinder: *walks pass the parlor*

From The Parlor: *noises and voices*

Cinder: Oh, are those voices in the parlor? We have a guest this early in the morning?

Male Voice: Like I said…At that time, didn’t you…take that girl in for your own convenience?

Cinder: That girl…Is he talking about me?

Laura: Even so…changing your mind after everything’s been decided is…

Cinder: *knocks on the door* Mommy? May I come in?

Laura: You may.

Cinder: Excuse…me. *walks in to find a rotund middle-aged man in a business suit*

Cinder: *hesitant* Good Morning…Sir.

Laura: *exhales slightly* Cinder. Allow me to introduce you to Amoncio Glass, my husband…and your stepfather.

Cinder: My stepfather…

Amoncio: Girl…It’s time for you to leave.

Laura: Dear, we haven’t seen each other since you left for your business trip. I am glad to see you doing well…However, why are you trying to overturn what’s already been decided?

Amoncio: At the time…I was overwhelmed with work…I now realize how irresponsible it was to just give you blanket approval on the matter of adopting this girl. For starters, there’s no way a commoner can adapt to the life of such a prominent family. Should anything happen, it’ll tarnish the Glass name.

Cinder: He’s right…If an uneducated person enters their ranks…it’ll surely embarrass the Glass Family…If my existence will prove troublesome for my sisters…surely it’d be best if I left!

Laura: What is your wish, Cinder?

Cinder: I…

Lee: *barges in with Ama* No Way!!

Cinder: Huh?

Lee: You’re probably thinking stuff like, “The Glass Family’ll be embarrassed,” or, “I’ll cause trouble for my sisters,” ain’t cha? You’re hiding your true feelings! It’s written all over your face. I can tell!!

Ama: No tears, now. There’s nothing to be sad about.

Cinder: Umm?

Lee: There’s no need to hold back to the point of crying!

Cinder: What?

Ama: You don’t have to worry about how Cinder is doing in the family, Father. We’re looking after her. Just look at how much her writing has improved.

Amoncio: I…Huh?

Amoncio: *hesitates slightly* I…I want to hear the girl’s opinion!

Ama: *whispers* You’re asking her because you know she can’t refuse if you say she’d cause trouble for us, right? You’re quite the talker for someone who’s not around, aren’t you?

Laura: Amanda, don’t be rude to your father.

Ama: Mother.

Laura: As you can see, Cinder has been diligently adapting herself to the Glass Family day by day. However, it’s true that her feelings on the matter are important. Cinder…What do you wish to do?

Cinder: I…

Cinder: There’s been a lot of things that have confused me since I arrived here…but…that ones who helped me every step of the way…

Cinder: I…want to live in this hotel! I’ll work hard on my studies, so please…

Laura: Incorrect.

Cinder: Huh? Did I get it wrong?

Laura: Cause as much trouble as you want!!!!

Cinder: Mommy?!

Laura: Troubles are inevitable when one interacts with other people…be they related by blood or not! Even so we want to stay by the ones we treasure. Now that the issue has been put to rest, I’m sure your father would still like to see his stepdaughter’s face. Please do try and come home more often, Dear.

Amoncio: But…!

Laura: Or is there some special reason why your need to drag Cinder off with you? For instance…promising one of your “business partners” that Cinder would become an indentured servant?

Lee: Indentured servant?

Ama: Oh…as in. if she promises to work for a set number of years…you can get her wages in advance?

Amoncio: No…that’s…I’ll be taking my leave now as I have business to attend to… *whispers* Girl. Even if Laura and the girls are fine with this…There may be other people who won’t look favorably on you. Come to me if things become too much to bear. I’ll be sure to find a proper place for you, where you’ll be more comfortable. *departs*

Cinder: Stepfather?

TRANSITION

Cinder: Um…Once again, I hope you’ll take care of me from now on.

Lee: Huuuh? Is that really the first thing you should be saying?

Cinder: Should I have apologized for causing them trouble first…or maybe thank them?

Cinder: Um…

Lee: You haven’t said…”Good Morning” yet!!!

Cinder: Huuuuuuh?

Lee: Have you any idea how we felt waking up to your empty bed?!

Cinder Ha…

Ama: Our Sister simply tore through the hotel in search of you.

Cinder: Ha-Wha…

Lee: Look who’s talking, Miss Still-In-Her-PJ’s?!

Cinder: Ha-Wha-Whaaaaa!

Ama: W…Whaaat?! Well, you haven’t even washed your face yet!

Laura: Girls, you’re being far too loud.

Lee: Mama!

Ama: Mother!

Laura: Another normal day is about to start. No need to kick up a fuss.

Lee: Sorry.

Ama: We got too excited...

Cinder: That’s right…I have to be at my best today, too…

Laura: After all, we should prepare for Cinder’s welcome party today! One can never have too many fun events!

Cinder Whoaaaa!

Lee: You’re gonna love it! Miss Faye makes some of the best food around!

Ama: *take Cinder by the shoulders* Come along then, we need to get you ready for your big day.

Cinder: Mother. My new family…is a really warm one.

~

Cinder: Did you say…”bodyguard”?

Lee: That’s right. You should introduce yourself to him since you’ll be living in the Glass Unicorn.

Cinder: There’s plenty of people with their eyes on the Glass Family’s fortune…Is it a mercenary who protects the Hotel from rogues?!

Ama: *pushes the bedroom door open* This is Rhodes.

Cinder: Rho…Huh? Is he a foreigner?! Just from his name, he sounds so strong!

Rhodes: *is a round puffy dog* *rapidly wags his tail*

Cinder: Huh?

Rhodes: Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah!

Cinder: It’s…

Rhodes: *BEAAAAAAM!!*

Cinder: WOOOOOW!!!

Cinder: * immediately jumps on top of the dog and squeeze-hugs it* CUTE! SO CUUUUUUTE!!!!

Cinder: *stops and gasps* Shoot...I couldn’t help getting excited! The bodyguard was just tooooo cute and amazing! I wonder what Big Sister Ama and Big Sister Lee must think!”

Lee: It was such a perfect moment that I curse the world for not having my Scroll in my hands to immediately take a photograph.

Cinder: Argh…

Ama: Considering how quick it happened, that would be an impossible dream…This is the first time I’ve ever agreed with you, Sister…That was lovely enough to purify the heart.

Cinder: Uh? What?

Ama: *sobs tears of joy* It was the fusion of cuteness with more cuteness.

Cinder: Whaaat?

Rhodes: Heh! Heh! Heh! Heh! Heh! Heh!

Lee: *also sobbing tears of joy* It was such a rare moment!

Cinder: Ugh…Huuuuu???

Rhodes: Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah!

Lee: Wouldn’t such a scene bring about world peace?

Cinder: Um, hold on…

Ama: But the human heart would covet such cuteness and wars would erupt over it.

Cinder: Things got really dramatic all of a sudden!!!

Rhodes: Heh! Heh! Heh! Hah! Hah!

Cinder: S…So, Rhodes is…

Amina: Everyone calls him Rose.

Cinder: Rose is…A very good dog. He doesn’t bark at all…The stray dogs around the area I lived were so rowdy.

Rhodes: Heh! Heh! Heh! Hah! Hah!

Lee: Oh, this little thing…doesn’t bark.

Cinder: Huh?

Ama: We found Rhodes unconscious in front of the hotel. His wounds have completely healed, so it must be an emotional problem.

Rhodes: Huhh! Hah! Hah! Heh! Hah! Huhh!

Amina: As you have heard, Rhodes…has a painful and pitiful past.

Cinder: I see…

Cinder: Pitiful…

FLASHBACK

Cinder’s Mother: Cinder…I’m sorry for making you work so much.

Cinder: Aw, you get some rest, mother!

DIFFERENT FLASHBACK

Cinder: I’m heading out, Mother.

Cinder’s Mother: I’m sorry you have to work so much when you’re not even ten yet!

ENDING FLASHBACK

Cinder’s Mother: What a pitiful child…to be born into such a life…

Cinder: Mother…Am I really that pitiful?

PRESENT

Lee: *picks up Rhodes* This little thing isn’t pitiful at all.

Rhodes: Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah!

Cinder: Eh…?

Lee: I mean, he’s living with someone like me, right?

Rhodes: *jumps down from Lee’s arms*

Ama: I’m sure anyone with as much self-confidence as our Sister must have a fun life.

Lee: Huuuh? Did you just make fun of me?

Ama: You noticed? So, she can be taught.

Laura: What are you girls talking about?

Cinder: Mommy!

Ama: Mother!

Lee: Mom!

Laura: It’s almost time for Rose’s walk. As pet owners, you have to take responsibility. It’s almost the optimal time for dog socialization!!!

Cinder: She even took dog socialization into consideration?!

OUTSIDE

Cinder: Mother, the Bodyguard of my new family…has a wonderful smile.

Passerby: Rose is wonderfully fluffy today too!

Cinder: Thank you very much.

Lee: If only we had our Scrolls with us to capture this moment and instantly share it through the world…

Ama: Should we perhaps run back to retrieve them?

Laura: Ama. Lee. You must exercise some restraint.

Passerby’s Dog: *runs and lovingly licks Lee’s face*

Cinder: Like this, slowly but surely…I want to continue making new memories with the Glass family.

Passerby: *tugs the leash* Stop that! I’m so sorry about this!

Ama: *chuckling* Pfft!

Lee: Ah! Hey! Hold on a second! I’ll play with you, just…hold on!

Cinder: Oh! Big Sister Lee!

Lee: No, “était” is past tense. It’s “est”. (Note: “est” is French for “is”)

Cinder: Lately, I have been focusing on my studies to become more cultured.

FLASHBACK

Laura: Should we hire a tutor?

Lee: Allow me, Mom.

PRESENT DAY

Cinder: It’s shameful for the Glass family to have a daughter with such shallow knowledge. Big Sister Lee must be very angry about that.

Lee: Although, your handwriting has become quite pretty.

Cinder: Huh?

Lee: You’ve made a lot of progress! I’m proud of you.

Cinder: Eeehhh?

Ama: The books you’re teaching her seems to be doing her vocabulary a disservice!

Lee: Do you have a problem with your sister’s teaching method?

Cinder: Uh…Hey.

Ama: I do.

Cinder: Wait…Don’t fight.

Lee: You’re always with Cinder, that’s unfair!

Cinder: Eeeehh?~??

Ama: Why don’t you teach her math and science too?

Cinder: Wait…Heyyy!~!!

Lee: She’ll get exhausted if I teach her so much in such a short period of time.

TEA BREAK

Lee: First of all, what was your primary education like?

Cinder: Oh…Emm…Before coming here…I lived in an orphanage ever since I was little. I had to work all day so it was difficult to go to school…

Lee: In other words, you only know the basics.

Cinder: I knew it, now she’s disappointed in me…!

Cinder: Sorry for being a bother…

Lee: Well…You’re my careless little sister!

Cinder: She looks…happy?

Lee: I’ve never had one before! I’ll be the one to take care of you.

Cinder: Eeeehh?~??

Ama: Your big sister wants to feel needed, so use her as you wish.

Cinder: Whaaat?!

Lee: Well, it’s been a long time since… *gets a paper cut* Ouch…I cut myself on the page.

Cinder: Oh no. *holds out a handkerchief* For now, you can use this to stop the bleeding…!

Lee: *takes the handkerchief* Hey, this is really worn out…

Cinder: Oh no, I gave an old thing to my sister.

Cinder: S-Sorry…It was my mother’s.

Lee: Eeh…? It’s a keepsake! Why don’t you treat it better?!

Cinder: Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?!~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lee: You have to take good care of it, Sillyyy!

Cinder: Eh…Eeehhh?~????

Lee: Just look at it! Now it’s stained with blood!

Cinder: What the…?

Lee: Eh?! Maybe it can be cleaned by washing it normally?!

Ama: You didn’t hesitate to offer us a handkerchief that was so important to you…What a kind girl…

Cinder: Hmmm…?

Lee: Don’t be discouraged, we’ll think of something.

Ama: I read in a book a long time ago that grated radish juice is effective in removing blood…

Cinder: What amazing knowledge!

Cinder: It’s all right…It’s already to degraded anyways and I was thinking of throwing it away. If in the end I can help Big Sister Lee, then that would be the best use I can put it to.

Laura: You’re lying.

Cinder: Mommy…

Laura: I don’t think you’re telling the truth. I’m sure you would like to keep the handkerchief full of memories of your mother.

Cinder: I mean…To tell you the truth, this holds a very important memory of my mother…I really want to treasure it forever…But the Glass family has been very good to me…Wouldn’t it be rude to drag old memories around forever?

Laura: Is that so? Regardless of how important it is to you, blood stains are easily removed with horseradish. Although, fabric damage cannot be reversed…I got it, I’ll reinforce the fabric with some decorative borders!!! Of course, if you don’t mind!

Cinder: Eeeeeeehh?~??

Ama: It’s clean and looks brand new again.

Cinder: Thank you very much…!

Lee: Mom, teach me how to sew like this, please!!!

Laura: First, you must practice straight stitching.

Cinder: Mother, now I’ll remember you with a nice flower frame.

Cinder: This room is huge and very clean...

Cinder: There used to only be rats in the attic and spiders in the mosquito net, I couldn't think of anything else. This bed is very soft too...This isn't bad at all...not bad at all...I can't sleep! An impeccable and perfumed ceiling and a bed that covers my whole body, I can't sleep because I've never had anything like this...! Besides...

Ama: It's really cold at night so you should cover up. *drapes a coat around Cinder's shoulder*

BATHROOM

Lee: Well, I'll wait for you here, I don't like walking alone in the dark corridors anyways.

Cinder: Hey, wai-...E...Eh...Eh?!

Ama: So your big sister doesn't like the dark, huh?

Lee: Shut Up!

GUEST ROOM

Ama: Here we are.

Cinder: T-Thank you very much...

Lee: We have to get up early tomorrow, so you should go to sleep early, too.

Cinder: Ah...

Cinder: At this point...I can't tell them...That I can't sleep because I'm nervous.

Cinder: ...Yes.

Lee: Haaaa! I don't like people who don't speak clearly. *leaves with Ama*

Cinder: I've troubled Big Sister Lee and made her angry! Even though my sisters were so nice to me, I made them feel uncomfortable, how...how foolish of me! ...No, I still have time, I have to apologize for my actions! *prepares to leave the room*

Lee: *returns with Ama*

Cinder: Eh?

Both Sisters: *prepares extra pillows next to Cinder's on the bed*

Lee: If you don't like someone, you can tell us. We'll help you.

Cinder: Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhh?????!!!!!

Lee: If you can't sleep, just stay awake until you feel sleepy.

Cinder: Eeeeeeeeeeeh???

Ama: Are you hungry? I brought cookies.

Cinder: Eeeeeeeeeeeh??? What's all thiiiiiiiis?? Eeeeeeeeeeeh??? Eeeeeeeeeeeh???

Cinder: Hey...sisters.

Lee: What? Are you sleepy already?

Cinder: Thank you very much.

Ama: Fufu.

Lee: You're welcome.

Laura: *bursts into the room* Girls! What are your doing up so late?

Lee: UWAAAH!

Ama: Mommy?!

Lee: Where did you come from, Mother?

Laura: I can go anywhere without any trouble. MY room has a secret passage to all the other rooms.

Cinder: There was something like that...?!

Laura: On the other hand...So the Glass Family's daughters are having a slumber party, huh?

Lee: Mom...

Laura: I'll teach you all about pillow fights and tell you some love stories.

Cinder: Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhh??!!!!!

Laura: Strict punctuality is the basis of everything.

Lee: Sorry.

Cinder: I never thought Mommy would be up late, too...

Ama: We've never seen her sleep.

Cinder: Mom, just as I expected...I fell asleep with my sisters.

Cinder: Mommy said we would clean out the study so it can be my room.

What Laura Said: We will carry the furniture from study to the storage room, and we will turn the study into your room!

Cinder: There are so many books.

Lee: By the way, we will help with the cleaning ourselves, too.

Cinder: Big Sister Lee…! It must be because she hates that’s it’s the room of a foreign child…

Lee: Alright, let’s get this over with.

Cinder: Eeeeeeeeehhhhh?! She’s more than motivated and ready to do this.

Ama: I will clean clockwise and Lee will clean counterclockwise, Cinder will make another pass at places where we have already cleaned. Lee must not stray to read books while we are cleaning.

Lee: Huh? You didn’t mention anything about that.

Both Sisters: Now spread out!

Cinder: What amazing coordination! I don’t think I could ever be like them. They are so good at this…my sisters are so confident. I’ll do my best to clean up, too…

Cinder: Well, I’ll start with the places that Lee has already cleaned…

Lee: *lying on the floor, reading*

Cinder: Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehh?

Lee: Have you read this book?

Cinder: Eh. No...I just...

Cinder: She might get surprised if I tell her that I had a superficial learning, but I still shouldn't lie to her.

Cinder: I don't understand the writing and phrasing of much literature...

Lee: Ah? That's no good!!! From now on, you'll have the chance to enjoy this book from scratch! Can't read some of the wording? Then I'm sure I can teach you.

Ama: Cinder...Have you already read this one? If not, then you can start from here.

Cinder: Big Sister Ama too!

Lee: You're the only one who reads those kinds of dark and meaningless stories.

Ama: It's in your stories that the protagonists get so violent that the novels end up being somber.

Laura: Girls. What are you doing instead of cleaning up?

Both Sisters: Mo-Mo-Mother! Sorry, I just...

Laura: Mommy recommends you read this one!

Cinder: Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehh?

AND THEN, WITH MOMMY'S PERFECT LEADERSHIP, WE WERE ABLE TO CLEAN THE ROOM

Laura: Hmm...There doesn't seem to be any dust. But there is still some in the air.

Cinder: I wonder if it was the sweeping...?!

Laura: Sleeping in this room tonight might hurt your throat! My beautiful girl will have to sleep in the guest room tonight!!!! Tomorrow, we will clean the dust when it has fallen!

Cinder: Hoooow kiiiiiiiiiiiind!

Laura: It takes more than a day to thoroughly clean a room. First, we will wait for all the dust to fall.

GUEST ROOM

Cinder: The bed is...very soft...
