------------

I send Clara and Claire to deliver the soap and shampoo to Celes is not without meaning. I want them to know each other better and build a good relations.h.i.+p. This is what happens to them after I send Clara and Claire to Celes' room and help her with that when taking a bath.

*KNOCK KNOCK*

Clara and Claire knocking at the door of the room which Celes use to sleep during her stay in Harvard castle. Celes' maid is the one who opens the door for them

"Yes?"

"My name is Clara and she's Claire, we are young master Henry personal maid. Young master Henry ask us to deliver something for young lady Celes"

"Oh wait a minute…"

"Who is that Auntie?"

That maid hasn't had a chance to report to Celes, but Celes already asking her about the visitor

"We have young master Henry's personal maids come to visit, Milady"

"Henry's personal maids? Let them in auntie"

"You can come in, lads"

Clara and Claire enter the room after getting permission. Celes already change her dress into something simple and prepared to take a bath with that dress.

"Oh, it's you again….Henry send you to help me taking a bath right?"

"Yes, Milady…just in case our bath is different from Stamfort castle and milady get a problem because not accustomed with our bath"

"I see….and what's that in your hand?"

"This is something that young master Henry personally made to help people bathing"

"Henry made it by himself? Mmm…let's go to the bathroom….i want to see what Henry made by my own eyes"

"But milady!...."

Celes' personal maid want to say something but she hesitates to talk about that with Clara and Claire around

"It's okay auntie, we're not in a strange place. It's where I will live after I marry my fiancé, Henry, later. I know you always help me bathing but for this time, let them help me instead, alright? unless you know how they take a bath in here…"

"That's…. I also don't know milady"

"So, it's settled. Clara and Claire here will help me a bath, auntie, we have lots of clothes need to wash right? It's better to wash it now, so I will have the dress ready to wear when I return later"

"I understand milady, I'll prepare the laundry to wash"

Celes' personal maids unload the content from one bag that they bring to the room before then put the clothes from the bag into the basket for dirty laundry. After the maid finish put the dirty laundries into the basket, four of them leave the room and heading to the bathroom. Along the way, Clara asks one of the maids she met in the way to show Celes' personal maid the place to wash laundries, then they're separated with Celes, Clara and Claire go to the bathroom while Celes' personal maid going to the was.h.i.+ng place guided with our local maid.

After they arrive at the bathroom…..

It's the women bathroom that only used by my family only, my stepmother and my sisters. There's another bathroom used by maids in another part of the castle. Of course, this bathroom is more s.p.a.cious and better than the other bathroom. It's also equipped with shelves where clean towels and bathrobe stored, water barrels, bathtub, lavatory in the corner, table, and stool also just like men bathroom that I used in the west wing of the castle.

"So, what should I do before getting a bath here?"

Celes ask Clara and Claire about that.

"Of course, it starts with undress first, milady"

Celes chuckled when hearing that answer

"Yes, that's right...we can't have a bath with full clothes on"

After saying that, Celes start to take her clothes off, Clara and Claire also help her to remove her clothes since Celes wearing conservative clothes on her body including corset which hard to take it off alone. After that, Clara and Claire also did the same thing to their clothes. The difference is they still put their underwear on and put a bathrobe after they take off their maid uniform while Celes is wearing nothing.

"Umm…Am I also should wear that too?"

Celes is pointing at the bathrobe that Clara and Claire currently wear.

"Milady, the one who takes a bath is you, not us. This only to prevent our bodies from getting wet"

"Ugh…I see. What should I do next?"

"Let's start by was.h.i.+ng milady's hair first. Take a sit on this stool please"

"Oh…Okay"

Celes sit on the stool that provided to her while Clara and Claire preparing to wash her hair. They wash her hair with water first before applying the shampoo. This followed by ma.s.saging the scalp and rubbing the hairs from the scalp until the tip of the hair before rinsing the shampoo with water.

"Excuse me milady, did you feel uncomfortable with the hair wash?"

Clara asking Celes in the middle of her hair treatment

"No, on the contrary, …it's so refres.h.i.+ng. I haven't wash my hair since I left Stamfort castle, and although the hair wash method here is quite different, but I feel relaxed and comfortable"

"Glad to hear that, milady. Please tell us if you feel uncomfortable with our hair wash method"

"Mmm…I have nothing to complain right now"

After the hair treatment finished, the next thing is to wash the body with soap.

"Umm…is that soap which Henry personally made? I can see it?"

Celes ask this request when seeing the soapbox in Clara's hand

"Sure milady, here…please take a look"

Clara handed the soapbox to Celes, who open the box and examine the content

"So…this is soap?"

Celes take the soap, put it near her nose and sniff it

"Mmm…. what a nice scent. What kind of scent is this soap had?"

"If I'm not mistaken, young master Henry said it was herbs or spices scent"

"Spices? Like what people used for cooking?"

"I'm sorry milady, I can't tell about that because it was made when young master Henry is outside the castle on his mission"

"Never mind then…I'll ask him later when I have a chance. Now, how to use this soap?"

"Yes…first wet the body with water then rub the soap to the body which makes foams appears and cleans the dirt from the body, milady. Please, let us show how it works"

"Please, and thank you…"

"It's our duty, milady…you don't have so courteous to us. Can you rise from your seat, please? It's hard to clean your whole body when you seating"

"Ah right, I'll be in your care then"

Celes stands up from the stool and lets Clara and Claire start was.h.i.+ng her body with the soap. After soaking the body with water, they start to wash it with soap, Clara takes the back part while Claire was.h.i.+ng the front part. It's something that they already did several times already and get accustomed to that. Doesn't take a long time to wash and after rinse the body with water to removes the soap, Celes' body is already clean and only need to soak the tub for the final bath.
