I shake my head, Miki is so sweet but you both have to learn.

"It is not appropriate for my collared girls to drink tea and chit chat idly in the lobby, what sort of message will that send to the people who come and see me?"


_________________

Of course Mistress is absolutely right as she is in everything. we are here to serve her needs and desires and as her property wearing her collar anything we do reflects on her as to how we act and her control of her underlings whether she is present or not. i am so ashamed of how i have acted, it was me who gave Madam's tea to Marta, i thought i was just being nice and showing my new friend a kindness but i didn't think it through enough and now i have embarressed Mistress by causing her representatives to look frivolous and lazy here in her very office and gotten both of us in trouble.

i ask with a very shaky voice. "Mistress, if i may, i am so sorry, this is all my fault i have been distracting Marta with my incessent talking and i got her a cup of your tea, i was just trying to be a good maid and then i am sure she was just trying to be polite and asked me to have one with her. i must learn to always think more about how all my actions will reflect on you, my Mistress and not just on myself, your servent."

i think to myself, i should leave out all the kissing stuff from my apology, i don't think those details would make Mistress any happier with us and it is not lying to Mistress just not including all of the facts.

Mistress is mad and Miki the angel that she is tries to take all the blame and even keeps our little tongue tennis a secret.

“I’m sorry as well Mistress, it’s both our faults, it won’t happen again” I say even though I think she's being harsh (we were only drinking tea for heavens sake!)


_________________

"You can both drink tea, just not out front and definitely not when your working, do I not give you enough breaks?"

I wave my hand dismissively.

"Never mind that I wanted to see you Miki because you are going to be in charge of cleaning my office, I trust you have done enough training to manage this task?"


_________________

Darn it, Either Mistress has gotten over her original state of being mad at Marta and i or i just overreacted to her scolding, i am upset because i thought i would finally get some personal punishment time with my Mistress, Oh well i guess i can keep hopeing.

i answer Mistresses comment with "Mistress i promise to be more descret when i take a break from now on and will strive to be more professional any time i am in public view representing you.

i continue "and Madam about cleaning your office most of my class time has not involved much actual cleaning instruction, but more how to look good and show the proper respect while doing it, but i promise you i will do my best to make sure you have the cleanest, shinest office in the all of Lacy Place. I will come here everyday before and after class to make sure of it Madam.

I nod my head.

"Good now run along and get to work"


_________________

i pout a little and get a small frown on my face, it hurts my feelings being dismissed by my Mistress whom i adore, but in the big scheme of things my feelings are of little consequence.

i curtsy for Mistress and answer with a polite "Yes Ma'am"

Then i head off to the the pantry to find the cleaning supplies, i promise muself that Madam's office will shine when i am through even if i have to get down on my hands and knees and scrub it with my own toothbrush.


_________________

Miki seems a little sad (I do hope its not because she has to clean Mistresses office because that means I get to see a lot more of her!)

Then I remember what she told me about wanting to look more girly and think maybe she thought that Mistress had called her here for that (yes that must be it!)

So when you go to the back I look at Mistress “Madame Folly, forgive me for being so bold but I think Miki’s feeling are hurt, I know she would do anything for you and would never tell you this herself but she wants so much to be more girly and she was telling me how you bought real implants for her friend which made her feel sad that you didn’t think she deserved real ones” I speak softly.

I know it’s not my place but I like Miki a lot and want her to feel special even if it means angering Mistress.


_________________

i come back thru the reception area with the cleaning supplies, i pause to curtsy and smile for Mistress as i pass and sneak a smile for Marta too, then go into Madam Folly's office to start my task.



_________________

I shake my head.

"Are you questioning me Marta? do you want to go back to Mexico? I thought not now go and help Miki"


_________________

i know i am not supposed to eaves drop on my Mistress but i hear her scold Marta, something about sending her back to Mexico, i think to my self, Oh Mistress please don't do anything bad to Marta, she is sooooo nice and she kisses so good. i hear Mistress tell her to come in and help me, that's good, maybe we can be out of sight for a little while and Mistress will get over being mad a us. i put my head down and scrub just a little harder.


_________________

I bite my lip.

"No Mistress, I didn't mean it like that" ~sigh~

"Right away Mistress" I quickly hop to it and make myself scarce.

"Miki are you in here?"


_________________

Marta comes into Madam Folly's office and asks if i am in there.

i answer meekly, "Yes sweetie i am over here behind the sofa", i crawl out from behind there on my hands and knees and give her a small concerned smile and ask.

"are you OK, i hope Mistress didn't get mad at you over something i did"

"If she is mad at you because of me i will do my best to make it up to you this evening if the dinner invitation is still good"


_________________

Miki is already hard at work on her hands and knees.

“Ssh not so loud” I whisper and glance back hoping Madame Folly didn’t hear anything about dinner.

“Don’t worry everything is fine, Mistress was just blowing of some steam” I continue in a hushed tone.

~smiles~

“What can I do to help you?”


_________________

"Oh sorry Marta, i will be more quiet. What can you do to help, i don't know sweetie, i just want Madam's office to be so shiny and clean that she is proud of me.

Why don't you dust the shelves, i will get all of the crawling around stuff, you have been much to sweet to me for me to let you be crawling around on your hands and knees. but please be very careful, if you have to move anything make sure you put it back exactly as it was, i want it to appear to Mistress that it just got clean by magic, even though it really is a lot of hard work.
