I Ran Away And The Reverse Harem Started

Chapter 6 I looked around the room I would be using with a puzzled look on my face.“By the way, ma’am. Do all maids normally stay in single rooms? I’ve never worked at a nobleman’s mansion, so I don’t know much about it.”“Ah, of course, new maids usually share a double room.”“But why do I…”I swallowed hard as I stammered.Could it be that Daniel told the head maid something?For example, if he had already announced that we were friends at the orphanage or that we knew each other… What if that’s why she gave me a single room?I looked at her nervously, and Mrs. Rosa smiled brightly.“Yes, I heard where you are from. I heard that you are acquainted with the Count…”Hah. Did you really say that, Daniel Leandro?I forgot that Daniel was now my master and almost cursed him out loud.But Mrs. Rosa added as if it was no big deal.“So, you are one of the twin brothers of the niece of the older sister of a nobleman the Count knows, and you came from the orphanage? If that’s the case, I can’t give you a dirty double room when you’re related to the Count.”“…….”She was telling me with a cheerful face, but I was still nervous.‘… No, that’s just something else.’No, whatever. Still, I guess a good thing is a good thing, and I’m grateful that Daniel made up just the right amount of lies so I could get a single room.After Mrs. Rosa left, I locked the door and unpacked the luggage I had brought.Well, I guess you could call it luggage, since it consisted of the food Lynne had packed for me-which I ate in the carriage-and a change of clothes.And a thin piece of string. I saw it crumpled in the depths of the bag, so I coiled it up tightly and hid it under the bed.“I guess we can just tidy up tomorrow morning.”I clicked my tongue at the fact that even after living there for 10 years, I had no treasured items to bring.“Anyway, I really came. The settings of the original novel.”After finishing packing my things, I sat down on the edge of the bed. In the small but cozy single room, dim moonlight streamed in through the square-shaped window.When I saw the pure white full moon, I felt strangely refreshed.“Well, I’ll be a maid tomorrow, so let’s get some sleep.”The thought of learning a new job and working among people I didn’t know didn’t calm me down a bit.Maybe it could be a new experience. Because my life was just serving at the same restaurant for 10 years.‘I hope they are good people.’With that thought in mind, I changed my clothes and crawled under the blanket to lie down.For some reason, the bed sheets were fluffy and soft and seemed like new. * * * Before entering the maid’s quarters, I made a promise to Daniel as well as Colin and Lucas.Please never pretend to know me in front of other people.After all, I was only here temporarily, and I was technically a friend of the boss.For the Count’s maids, it would be like having the boss’s friend suddenly come into the workplace and work together…The boss’s friend comes into their workplace – obviously by connection – and works together?It was clear that they would also be reluctant because it would be burdensome.Lucas and Colin seemed to look at each other upon hearing my request, then turned their gaze back to me and grinned.“Yes, Rosie! So that means we can pretend to know each other when we’re together?!”“Rose has a point. Then come visit my room later, Rose. We can have tea time with just the two of us without burdening the maids.”“Brother, it’s just the two of you?! Me too!!”Looking at the two handsome men smiling brightly, I eventually kept my mouth shut.Because so much time has passed, I’ve forgotten for a while that these two aren’t quite stubborn either…‘I was just saying that it would be nice if I didn’t have to run into anything during my time as a maid.’I sighed heavily and walked away, holding a bucket of mop-washed water in my hand.This is exactly what I did after coming to the Count’s residence.Carrying a bucket and mop to mop stairs.Actually, cleaning is not that difficult.I’ve been working in a restaurant at Danten for several years, starting at 8:00 and finishing at 8:00. Besides, I could get paid four times as much for the same work here.The problem was not the work, but somewhere else.“I guess I’m not really liked.”I looked back and forth between dented buckets and mops that were so old they looked like they were about to break.A few hours ago, I went and received it from the senior maids who were in charge of me.When they gave me the job, the things they handed me were cleaning tools that were all falling apart.I glanced at the new cleaning supplies placed behind the senior maids and left without another word.‘Well, wherever you go, there is territoriality. I’ve lived with Lynne for so long that I don’t realize it.’It’s just that I’ve gotten too comfortable in one place, and that’s how I live my social life. If it’s a bad habit, it’s a bad habit.It’s funny that I boasted to Daniel that I was friendly and would be liked wherever I went, but from the first day, I ended up being bullied by the senior maids!‘But who am I? Lynne, who is like an ice princess, is the person who lived with me for 10 years.’If I thought that this kind of treatment could tear my mentality to pieces, it was a huge mistake.Moreover, perhaps because I thought of myself as someone who would soon leave, I didn’t feel like fighting over something like this.The scariest person in the group is the one who will quit soon. We can fight like dogs at any time, but for now, it’s the first day of work, so let’s move on.“… No, but why doesn’t this damn staircase end?”I know it’s a large mansion.I felt like I would need three bodies to scrub all of the huge staircases and guest staircases.I finally cleaned the stairs of the large central hall, stretched my back once, and headed to the kitchen to get a new bottle of water.Perhaps because it was almost lunch time, the kitchen was crowded with maids. In the corner, I could see the senior maids I had met at the dorm today.“Hello.”I greeted them, holding a mop and bucket in both hands.They stopped chatting, glanced at me, and started talking among themselves again.Yeah, whatever. The senior maids’ disregard was not all that surprising.‘Well, I’m not from around here. I’m sure they know that I’m just an orphan with no connections.’From what I heard from Mrs. Rosa, the head maid, most of the people who work at the Count’s mansion are natives of this area.They probably knew each other well, but it would have been like me barging into their home ground.‘Yeah, I didn’t even expect friendship. My goal is money anyway.’That’s just because I’m working for a few months to avoid interest. I didn’t regret my relationship with them.‘I’ve cleaned all the stairs in the central hall, so now I just need to clean the stairs connected to the outside.’After getting new water from the kitchen, I went outside through the side door in the kitchen.The mansion has several stairs leading from the terrace of the second floor room to the garden.‘From what I heard, Daniel, Colin, and Lucas have one in each room.’It will lead down to the garden and also be used as an emergency exit.It was a time when I was heading to the garden with a bucket full of water.“Hey, over there.”Huh?Suddenly, I heard a laugh coming from behind me.For a moment, I felt an ominous energy.The moment I hesitated, unable to turn around because my hands were heavy, several people ran up to me and pushed me on the back.“Ugh!”I fell onto the grass, carrying the bucket and mop.No wonder the bucket full of water spilled over me.I looked like a wet rat and watched the group that had pushed me run towards the back of the mansion.Just by looking at it, it was clear that she was wearing the same outfit as me, with a long, fluttering black skirt.It seems like the maids who were chatting in the kitchen have secretly followed me.It’s okay if you just act territorial. How can you even use such a childish trick?Soaked in cold water, I got up and looked around. Then I stuck my nose into my sleeve and sniffed it.“Luckily the water is clean.”If it had been dirty water or something like rag water, I would have been a little more upset.I decided to think calmly.Should I just ignore this issue or take it seriously?The worries didn’t last long. * * * “Ah, it’s refreshing. Did you see that arrogant newbie fall to the floor?”“Who said not? It was really funny. Even strange screams!”The maids who pushed Rosieta and ran around the building laughing and entered the mansion. It was a central hall with a staircase leading to the second floor.“I already didn’t want to see a newbie staying in a single room alone. I guess you can take care of it now, right?”“That’s right. Otherwise, we will continue to harass you.”Among the Count’s maids, Miriam and Julie were the roommates. As the two passed the hall giggling, Mrs. Rosa came out.“Oh my, Miriam, Julie. Have you finished cleaning the Count’s room?”“Of course, ma’am.”Miriam replied cheerfully, linking arms with Julie in a friendly gesture. It was at that time that Mrs. Rosa also smiled and tried to move on.“Ma’am.”“Oh, Rosieta?”Squeaking, the door to the mansion opened, and Rosieta trotted in carrying a bucket.Miriam and Julie’s eyes widened.‘Why does she come in here?’She should have been crying by now due to the maids’ harassment.

Mrs. Rosa also looked at her in surprise.She couldn’t believe her eyes. Still, Rosieta smiled brightly.“Oh my god. Has it rained? Why are you so wet?”“It’s not raining. I accidentally spilled the water, ma’am.”Rosieta said with a grin.Rosieta’s gaze passed the maids behind Mrs. Rosa.When their eyes met, Miriam and Julie’s shoulders shook in surprise.‘What, are you here to talk to Mrs. Rosa?’Honestly, it was absurd. Usually, when new maids are harassed, they just cry out of sadness and do not escalate the situation by telling their superiors.She’s not stupid either. Are you really doing this without realizing that even if you get help from your superiors for a moment, the internal bullying will only get worse?‘Stupid girl!’While Miriam and Julie were glaring at her, Rosieta lowered her eyebrows pitifully and said,“I’m sorry, but I don’t think I can clean up after the way I’ve looked, and I think my clothes smell a bit funny somehow, so if it’s during working hours, do you mind if I wash up in my room, ma’am?”Miriam behind her secretly snorted at her words.Miriam knew Mrs. Rosa well because she had a long history as a head maid.How inflexible boss she is.I don’t know about Rosieta, the new maid who had just arrived, but although Mrs. Rosa seemed friendly and easy-going on the outside, she never allowed anyone to do anything different during working hours.‘Do you think a woman like her would send a maid back to her room just because she got a little wet? A bath? How stupid!’I bet she would give her 10 minutes and tell her to just change her clothes and come back quickly to work.What was even worse was that if she caught a cold while working while wet, she would be labeled as a maid who couldn’t take care of herself and could not do her job properly, and the head maid would scold her.Mrs. Rosa was such a boss!
