After laughing for a while, both of them sat in the living room.
"So, how does the lovely Miss Mei plan to show me around this beautiful Academy today ♬~" Sister Elysia said to Mei with a smile.
Mei thought for a while, remembered the room they had just moved into, and frowned as she asked Sister Elysia, "Sister Elysia, your room, has it been tidied up?"
"It seems… not." Remembering the dust that flew up when she opened the door yesterday, it was clear that the room was not meant to be lived in originally.
"Then we should tidy up the room first before going out," Mei sighed.
"Alright, then let's get to it, Mei. Sister Elysia is a bit impatient to explore this Academy." Saying that, Sister Elysia stood up and walked upstairs.
But after opening her room door, Sister Elysia still felt… at a loss.
As soon as the room door opened, dust, stirred up by the breeze from the opening, was already dancing in the air.
Sister Elysia was silent for a moment, then closed the door again.
At this moment, Mei came up with some things. "Sister Elysia, you should put these on."
Only then did Sister Elysia see what Mei had brought: a head cover, a mask, an apron, and shoe covers.
"Sister Elysia?"
"Well, you're a bit older than me. If I just call you Sister Elysia, it feels a bit… So I'll call you Sister Elysia." Mei began to put on the items she had brought.
"You can, ♬~" Sister Elysia also began to put on the protective gear for cleaning.
After getting dressed, Sister Elysia watched Mei walk into the bathroom, then pulled out some cleaning tools from who-knows-where.
Mei walked over, carrying half a basin of water. "Alright, Sister Elysia, you can open the door now."
"Ah, oh, okay." Hearing Mei's words, Sister Elysia immediately opened the door.
As soon as the door was fully open, Mei splashed the water in her hand out.
The water quickly spread across the ground upon contact, but some dust still floated up.
Mei walked directly past the stunned Sister Elysia, heading straight for the window, pulling down the curtains, then opening the window to let the sunlight into the room.
A gust of wind blew in from outside the window, and the dust on the windowsill was instantly swept up.
Sister Elysia quickly walked into the room with her tools, then closed the door, thinking it was better not to let the dust blow out.
Mei walked over, took some tools from Sister Elysia's hand, and then began to clean.
Sister Elysia, on the other hand, immediately picked up the mop and began to clean the stains on the floor.
After an unknown amount of time, Sister Elysia's room was finally clean.
Now, the room was spotless.
If it had only been Sister Elysia, she would have absolutely not been able to clean it to this extent.
The two of them sat on the bed frame without a mattress.
"Thank you, Mei. If it were just me, I don't know how long it would have taken to clean, and I wouldn't have been able to get it to look like this now," Sister Elysia said, looking at Mei sitting beside her.
"You're welcome, Sister Elysia. After all, we both live here, so of course I have to help. And Teacher Himeko said that I should take you to buy some daily necessities. If we don't clean the room, there's no way to put things away," Mei said, wiping her forehead with the back of her hand.
Although the room wasn't big, cleaning it thoroughly wasn't easy. There was simply too much dust. The furniture itself wasn't an issue, but there was a lot of dust on and under the furniture, and many areas required moving furniture to clean.
"Haha, Mei looks like a little kitten covered in dust right now ♬~" Sister Elysia said, looking at the dust on Mei's face.
"Sister Elysia, aren't you the same? So let's not talk about me."
After resting for a while, the two took off their aprons and other items, putting them all into a bag. These were to be thrown away, as they could not be used a second time. Next, they would go buy new ones.
"Alright, Sister Elysia, it's getting late now. You rest in my room for a bit. I'll go freshen up first, then you can take a shower and clean off the dust. After dinner, we can go explore the Academy and buy daily necessities," Mei said, tidying up things, then taking out her bathing supplies from her room and speaking to Sister Elysia.
"Okay, oh, I was right after all. Mei truly is a gentle and virtuous girl ♬~" Sister Elysia said, sitting on a chair in Mei's room.
"Sister Elysia, don't tease me." Mei quickened her pace, only exhaling in relief once she reached the bathroom.
Sister Elysia, on the other hand, rested on the chair for a while. Leaning back against the chair, Sister Elysia still felt a bit tired. The room didn't look very big, so why was it so difficult to clean?
Without a phone, she didn't know what to do sitting there. Although there was a computer in Mei's room, she couldn't just touch other people's things.
Unconsciously, Sister Elysia started to feel a bit drowsy.
Just as Sister Elysia was about to fall asleep, Mei walked in, wearing a different set of clothes.
"Sister Elysia? Sister Elysia? Go take a shower first and clean off the dust from your body." Mei's gentle voice sounded in her ear.
Sister Elysia yawned and then opened her eyes. "Are you done showering, Mei?"
"Yes, I've already showered. Oh, by the way, Sister Elysia, do you have any change of clothes?" Mei asked, only then remembering that Sister Elysia hadn't brought anything when she came to St. Freya Academy, so she definitely wouldn't have any change of clothes.
"No, I don't. After all, I came directly to St. Freya Academy and didn't prepare anything," Sister Elysia said, standing up and stretching. She felt much more awake.
"Then, Sister Elysia, if you don't mind, you can wear mine for now." Saying that, Mei opened her wardrobe, took out a set of casual clothes, and handed them to Sister Elysia.
"All the bathing items are still in the bathroom. I didn't take them out, Sister Elysia, you can just use them. Oh, and you can put the clothes that need to be washed into the bamboo basket in the bathroom," Mei said, then sat on the bed and began to blow-dry her hair with a hairdryer.
"Okay~~" Sister Elysia deliberately drew out the sound, then took the clothes and walked out of the room.
After walking out of the room, Sister Elysia chuckled twice. Indeed, Mei was still very gentle.
While showering, Sister Elysia hummed the music she often listened to.
After finishing her shower and putting on her underwear, Sister Elysia picked up the clothes Mei had given her. After putting them on, Sister Elysia realized just how… exaggerated Mei's figure was.
What was a regular shirt, on Sister Elysia, already covered her thighs. And then the pants, which were supposed to be capris…
After putting on this outfit, Sister Elysia felt as if she had inexplicably shrunk a size.
Looking at herself in the mirror, it was as if a child was wearing an adult's clothes.
Sister Elysia walked out of the bathroom, wiping her hair with a towel, and then saw Mei walking up from downstairs.
"Sister Elysia, come here, I'll blow-dry your hair for you."
"Okay~~" Sister Elysia immediately dropped the towel and quickly walked into Mei's room.
