Ariel said nothing, only smiling as she was led to the large fireplace to rest. It didn't take long before Amy arrived later with warm refreshments and snacks. "Oh, thank you! Phillip just told me that your name is Amy Jones; it's a pleasure to finally meet you!" Standing up straighter, she gave a little bow towards the other maid. Phillip took his own share of food and muttered a small thanks to Amy, feeling all the more awkward in this situation.

"Amy, this is Ariel. She's the maid I talked about earlier. Though I have to wonder...why are you here?" He looked at the other maid with a questioning look. Ariel giggled lightly as she sat down next to Phillip. Surprised at the sudden closeness of their body's warmth, he couldn't help but blush shyly.

"I was chosen personally to arrive here and serve Master Phillip in any way I can. I hate to be the bringer of bad news...but your services will no longer be required Miss Jones. I will take care of Phillip now. However, I'm not cruel as to kick you out; goodness no! However, from this moment on, you are to consider yourself my subordinate and assistant." Ariel smiled brightly.

"Ok?"
