The next day...

It's about 2 PM the next day. You're sitting on the couch in the center of the maiden's hall, lowest floor, chatting with Jinx, another girl with blue, braided hair. [Jinx, League of Legends] You hadn't really made any true friends yet, only acquaintances.

Suddenly the door to the performance rooms slams open. You can see four Blues carry a naked women out on a stretcher. It's Sakuya. She was completely ****, her arm dangling from the side of the cot. Her skin glistened under the artificial lights, as if her skin had been covered in a liquid. She had gone in for her first performance under the order of Alex about two hours ago.

"Oh my goodness, is she alright?" You ask.

"Oh, she'll be fine." Jinx replies. "This happens all the time with us. Sometimes our partners get a little too rough."

You watched a Sakuya was carried up the stairs to the top floor, and into a room on the far right end of the balcony.

"That must be her room." You state.

"Yeah." Jinx agrees. "Hey, May... Listen... I know you didn't really get along all that well with Sakuya, after all, I saw what went down at lunch yesterday, but I think we should go and say hi. She's probably not feeling all that great after her first performance."

You frown, and look at Jinx questioningly.

"I know, I know... But the thing is, she's probably having trouble adjusting to her new life. I'm guessing she's just taking out her frustration on us. C'mon, May... We're going to be here for the rest of our lives... The least we can do is try to repair the damage"

You sigh.

"Alright..." You reply. "So, what's the plan, then?"

"Well, we won't go right now for obvious reasons. She should be waking up in about an hour or two. Once sh does, she'll need time to cool down. I think we should go and bring her some dinner. She'll be too sore to walk, so I'm guessing it'll be appreciated..."

"Why would she be s... Oh..." You blush.

"Yeah, alright, that sounds good. We'll go after dinner."

...

It's 6:48 PM. You had just left the public bathroom. Jinx had already gone ahead of you to deliver Sakuya's food. You made your way to her room.

As you approached the door, you heard talking from inside.

"I just don't know what to do anymore..." You heard Sakuya say, her mouth full of food. "I was well on my way to becoming a surgeon, and now this... Am I just supposed to live my life out like this forever?"

"Yeah, I know what you mean..." You heard Jinx say as you creaked the door open. "We've only been here for a few months, but already we're starting to get bored. Even the people who really enjoy their job are starting to look complacent..."

You open the door entirely, and enter the room.

"That's why I'm gonna find a way out of here, whether- HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!"

Sakuya thrusts her fork towards you, her mouth full of macaroni salad. She's sitting up on her bed, her blanket covering her lower half, and wearing nothing but a black top. You notice it's identical to the one Jinx is wearing. She must have brought her a set of clothes to borrow.

"I came to check on you?" You reply.

"Out, OUT!" Sakuya yells. Jinx is completely taken aback. "Both of you, out! I need sleep now! May, how DARE you enter my room without permission?" She turns to Jinx and bows her head.

"Thank you Jinx, the food was lovely. Now, can you please take that woman out of here?"

Three minutes later, you're walking side by side with Jinx. Both of you are silent.

"I think she likes you." Jinx smirks.

"Shut up..." You groan, and sock Jinx in the shoulder.

"You two are perfect for each other..." She mutters, and rubs her arm.

The following days could only be described as tense. Somehow... In some way... The two of you managed to butt heads at least twice a day. Arguments in the theater, arguments at lunch, arguments on the balcony. You hated her and she hated you. Or, well, that's what the two of you thought, for now...

Eventually, Saturday came around again. The day of your first performance. When you woke up, sure enough, there was the message by your door, demanding that you come down to the performance area at 10:00 PM sharp. You sighed. You didn't know what you were going to do. You'd have to think about it when you got there...

Yawning, you opened the door to your room, and out into the balcony. As you did so, you felt the door smack something on the back.

"OW!" Cried a rude and aggressive voice. You looked down at your feet. There, in front of you, rubbing her head and glaring at you with fire in her eyes, was Sakuya. She was no longer wearing a blue maid's outfit, but a black one instead. In her hair were the same little green bows that you saw when you first met her. She grumbled, got to her feet, and the yelling began.
