It seemed like the master was searching for a wife,that's what the maids said and that made me really sad . Among all the ladies that came, the only one I liked was Twinkle. She was so free with everyone but she didn't know how to cook,so I guess that was her only problem since the master needs a wife who can cook . She even talked to the maids.I liked her but I didn't like her presence in the mansion. It reminded me that the master wanted a wife. I don't like it when they come over. I feel jealous and angry, dare I say. Why should I be feeling jealous when there's nothing going on between me and the master? My reactions baffled me and left me confused. The master ignores me now ,he seems to enjoy their presence very much,as he paid no attention to what was going on around him. Everyone was surprised
