Finally Awake

1024 Words
Juliet, who was now pretending to be asleep, only felt a wave of headache come on when the thunderous cries of many echoed through her ears. Presently, over 15 women were rushing towards her. And leading the pack were 3 women who looked very identical, who started tackling one another while running forward  "Dammit, Alina! Why the hell are you running beside me with that big waistline of yours?" "Heh! You're one to talk!... Alice! Compared to my gorgeous waistline, what about you? With your behind that is so big and full of farts, How dare you talk to me, your older sister?" "Hmph!... Older sister, my foot! You're only older than I by a few breaths, so what does it matter?" "Dammit! Can you 2 just shut up? Can't you see that you both are blocking my way from reaching the little Miss? With your long turkey-like necks sticking out so much, how else am I supposed to see the miss from here?" Like so, the gang of triplets dashed towards Juliet and gripped her tight. And before Juliet knew It, she almost saw the light of death again. "~Wooooo~~… Miss! Miss! Please wake up!" (x_x) The way they shook her almost made Juliet pass out from it all. Again, she had to ask... Was this any way to treat a patient? And why the hell were they so strong? Forget it. Juliet opened her eyes pretentiously and soon came face to face with the 3 mighty women. And with the memories she had, she knew exactly who they were. . In the original Romeo and Juliet plot, Juliet just had one nanny, and that was it! But for her, she got 3 nannies who had taken care of her since she was a toddler. Yup! These 3 were the middle-aged identical Triplets with the names: Aldith, Alice, and Alina. Aldith was the oldest, and Alina was the youngest. They had been her nanny for as long as she could remember. Again, due to the power of magic, people in this world lived for 3~500 years. So at around 250, people then start looking like middle-aged or 30-year-old people back on earth. Thus, looking at the chubby but young-looking triplets that looked 18, it was hard for her to know their exact ages. Because since she was a toddler, their appearance had never changed. So for all she knew, they could be 120 or so. Another surprising thing was that apart from herself and a few others in the house... no one else could truly tell these chubby sisters apart. They were just too identical in appearance., with the same hair color, eyes, height, body size and so on.  With magic, the skin and complexion of everyone here looked impeccable and flawless.  The air here was filled with richness and cleanliness too. Magic was all around them, be it in the ground or trees. It was the very foundation and fundamental of everything in this world. . Juliet swiftly shifted her gaze to the other maids behind the triplets. Of course, as the only legitimate Daughter within the Capulet household, there were still other maids assigned to her as well. But those ones were more like subordinates under the Triplets instead, as they followed their every command concerning her upkeep. Things like making up her bed, using magic to clean the room, or do laundry, were all assigned to the others by the Triplets. But the wiping of her sick body, inspecting and overseeing all tasks like testing were diligently done by the Triplets. Juliet's eyes fluttered pretentiously, as she didn't know whether to laugh or to cry when listening to the ever-arguing triplets, who were still squeezing the living daylight out of her. ~Cough! Cough! Cough!~ Juliet coughed, and the room froze. Eh? The Triplets jumped in alarm, followed by even more enthusiasm from them as they bear-hugged her even tighter than before. "~Ahhhh... my poor baby is finally awake!" "Quickly! Quickly! Quickly!.... inform the Light healer to come over and check up on the little Miss now!" "Little Miss.... do you want to eat my famous star fruit cake?" "Alice! Are you stupid or something? Everyone knows that star fruit cake is bad for patients." Juliet secretly nodded and was about to secretly give Aldith a thumbs up in her heart when she thought of the sourness of the star fruit cake. As a real foodie, that cake was a taboo to all cakes in humanity. What sort of cake would bubble like purple poison? She almost cried in joy when she heard Aldith's words. But of course, it seemed like she had celebrated too early. Aldith raised her lips proudly: "Alice, you better not serve that disgusting cake of yours... because the little Miss will eat my famous rice pudding cake instead!" "_"... From the pot to fire. Juliet wanted to cry but had no tears at all! Of course, Alina joined in as well. "Tsk!... What do you all know? How can any of those be good for a sickly miss? Of course, she'll eat my famous white porridge cake instead." .... Juliet closed her eyes briefly while secretly begging the heavens for mercy. "Water..... water," she said in a whisper tone that sounded as if she would die any moment. And indeed, her truck worked, as it made the triplets stop arguing. "You lot! What the hell are you waiting for? You heard the Miss! Hurry along and get her a jug of water immediately!!" "You there, bring something that I can use to clean my angel's sweat away... My little angel, do you feel any pain anywhere else?" Alice asked while stroking her hands soothingly. Juliet shook her head and looked at the triplets obediently  "No... I'm fine. More importantly, what has been going on within the estate ever since the day that I came down with this fever?"  The triplets' eyes lit up. "Young miss, have you forgotten? The masked ball Is in 2 days!" Juliet's gage turned pale.  Masked ball... Masked ball... Wasn't this the ball where Juliet would meet that Montague p*****t? … Sh**!!!
