Welcome to Gaia! ::

After Yume leaves, Hatsumomo talks to herself."She's a smart girl to try to befriend me."As Hatsumomo leaves she had a devilish grin on her face."Because those who get in my way I will destroy." Hatsumomo walked out of the maids quarters.

Hatsumomo took a scrubber and began to scrub the floors.As she is scrubing,the scrubber broke."Stupid Scrubbers!"said Hatsumomo as she throws the broken scrubber on the floor.Then in a few moments Hatsumomo was calm and she said " I hope no one saw me" as she walked over and got a new one.

A hour or two later,Hatsumomo finished cleaning the main hallways.
"Finally,I'm done."Says Hatsumomo a she wipes her forhead with her hand.

((Ditzy, please do not control other people's characters. I realize that there aren't a lot of people on at one time, but that is part of working your way up to maiko. We want it to take awhile, and cannot move you up when you try to speed things up. Interact with true maids, maiko, and geisha. Do not control them. If Okaa-san wants something, SHE will tell you.))

((I simply ask that you interact with others. Wait for responses. I know it can be hard, but this is part of your journey to becoming a maiko, then a geisha. Here, I will help to start you off.))

Okaa-san slid open her door and shuffled out of her room. Walking down the hallway, she happened to find one of the new maids.

"You there. Girl. Your name is Yume, yes?" Okaa-san folded her hands in front of her. "I would like you to take the tea set out of my room and down to the kitchen to be cleaned. It is the first door on the left down the hallway. The tea set is on the table."

Endoh stood in front of the okiya, still terrified of all that had happened just a few days ago. Images of her mother apologizing to her profusely as the rickshaw pulled away from her house. Images that had haunted her so much so that she was hardly able to get any sleep, and it was starting to show. Circles formed under her eyes, and she just had a general look of sickness on her face.
"Mother...... what.... what did you mean by all this..." She said quietly to herself. She looked to her side. The man that owned the rickshaw was still standing there, waiting for her to go into the okiya so he could leave.
'I want to leave this place....'

Makoto bowed her head hair falling over her shoulder, before quietly escorting Itchigiku-sama back to the Hinohasu Okiya.

Sadayakko bit back a sigh. She hadn't dreamt an Okiya would be like this. It was as if it was impossible to establish yourself, let alone become a part of the place. Even though she had been in this place for a little while already, it was as if she was completely lost within this strange, new place.

At first, Sadayakko had been strangely excited about coming here and had held dreams of becoming a true geisha. Now, however, she almost wondered if she was something of a fool for being so naive about the Okiya. But still, Sadayakko waited patiently. This was her new life and she would try as best she could to make the best of it.

Kimie looked the building up and down. She could barely contain a grin. Training to become a geisha?! People in her hometown were doubtless talking about her now..

The young girl approached the building and slid open the door quietly, taking her sandals off at the entrance. "Hello? I'm a new maid.." Kimie had a knack for having a gentle, yet audible voice at the same time.

She looked down as her hands smoothed her very simple clothing. Her hands then went to her hair, smoothing that too carefully. The last thing she wanted was to make a terrible impression to her peers.
