"Lilac." Sandy and Daisy both said in unison, but not before Sandy lightly knocked on the side of the open door, letting know she and Daisy were there. Lila looked behind her, to see her sisters — while she scrubbed and took out the loose strands of browns and gray hairs from the drain. "Hi Sandy — hi Daisy. What's the matter???" Lila replied, as she dumped the hairs in the nearby bin. "W-we just wanted to let you know that we brought you a little something from the restaurant, in case you missed lunch and dinner." whispered Sandy, as Daisy quickly nodded. "Yeah — and we put it underneath your bed, so that you can eat it later." Daisy whispered lastly.
Lila smiled at her two sisters and thought how sweet of them to bring her something to eat. But worried if Olga knew that they would be bringing her food? "Don't worry Lilac. We told her that we will finish the rest, once we get back. Since we got really full from what we had at the restaurant." Said Sandy. "And we also thought that you might have been hungry, so we decided to bring you something." Said Daisy lastly.
"Sandy, Daisy... you didn't have to get me anything. This is your food, and you two should finish eating it instead-" before Lila could say anything more, she was interrupted by both twins as they both said to her. "We did have to. We thought of you, because you're our sister. We have to take care of you too, just like you do for us. both girls said in unison. "Again we're super full from the restaurant and Olga kept asking for more to eat from the menu. And we had to finish up our meals a little quicker — since she kept eating from our plates at the restaurant." Sandy then added, and Daisy nodded to what she said. Lila couldn't believe what she heard, but also thought it wasn't further from the truth, since Olga had the tendency of eating food from the twins' plates at times, and would be mad at the two if they didn't give her theirs. Lila asks the two if they feel sick at all, for eating a little too fast, and if they needed any medicine or something? But both Sandy and Daisy shook their heads — both telling her that all they needed was to lay down, and sleep. Since they were feeling sleepy and knew they had school in the morning — so both girls hurried out the bathroom door. But then both twins tell Lila before heading back to the room, "Just be sure to eat up, once you're done cleaning. Okay Lilac. Me and Daisy are going to get some sleep for school tomorrow."
"*Chuckle* Okay, you two — goodnight." Lila chuckled as she quickly got up from the tub she was cleaning, to kiss both of her sisters on their foreheads. "Remember — eat your food, when you're done and before going to sleep." Both twins tell their sister in unison with a serious tone. "*Chuckle!!!* Yes, I'll eat the food that you brought me. And make sure I finish every last bite." Lila chuckled in response before telling her sisters goodnight, once more and sending them off to bed.
Once both twins were back in the room. Lila got back to cleaning Olga's bathroom and wanted to finish as quickly as she could to eat her meal that her sister brought her from the restaurant. And to get back to the room, and figure out a way to deliver her letter, as she feared that she might be running out of time.
There just has to be some other way to have both letters delivered. She thought while she scrubbed the toilet of Olga's bathroom. Finally finishing all of her daily chores for today, without another incident from her untamed magic — though it was a little hard. She was able to maintain her powers while completing her chores.
As she finishes cleaning the toilet, she slowly gets up from the floor — only to be pushed back down by someone gripping onto the back of her hair with such force — having her face shoved inside the toilet bowl.
"Tell me — does this toilet look clean to you? Because I still see some disgusting shit in it." Olga commented, as she kept shoving her head inside the toilet bowl. "Also, don't think that I'd forgotten about you talking to me earlier today. And I thought I said to have this bathroom spotless? *Tongue clicks* Looks like you have to start all over."
Lila could barely hear what she was saying, as she struggled to get her head out of the toilet, but Olga kept shoving her head deeper, while Lila struggled to gasp for air. Olga finally lets go of her hair, after a few moments shoving her head in the toilet. Lila immediately pulls away from the toilet, the moment Olga lets go of her. Gasping and breathing frantically to finally breathe fresh air — coughing out the water that managed to seize inside her mouth; throat and nostril. Making her vomit from the process.
The sight of her vomiting was horrific for Olga to see, and was disgusted by such a sight "YOU DISGUSTING SHIT!" Olga shouted, as she kicked Lila on the face, where she slipped on her own vomit. "Get the fuck up! And clean all this mess that you made — and make sure that it's absolutely spotless here!" She later added, while spitting on Lila. Lila stumbled a bit to get up, using the counter of the sink that was close to the toilet to get up. But once she stood — she quickly got the damp towel that she was using earlier to clean the sink, and began cleaning after the toilet water that was on the floor as well as the vomit that was mixed in with it. While she was cleaning — Olga smirked menacingly — clicked her tongue, and decided to make things worse for her, as she already found this whole scenario amusing somehow.
"I know there's no posts on Sunday. But yesterday, and the day before, and the day before that. There was still no mail for you; yet again — I guess whoever sent you that letter must have sent it to you by mistake. Otherwise, why else wouldn't they be replying back to you or sending you another letter?" She said coldly, with a low snicker. "*Sigh!* Now that you have a lot here to be cleaned. I'm going to my room and take my beauty sleep. See to it that you finish cleaning up this bathroom, and do try not to wake me. Otherwise... you'll have a similar thing happen to you, than what I did to you in the toilet." Then shortly after she sighed and snickered menacingly; she left the room, and headed back to her room — leaving Lila to clean up the bathroom again.
If only she knew that the sender had actually sent me another letter. But I'll just let her think whatever she wants at this point. As long as we finally get out of here. She thought, while finishing up on cleaning the bathroom floor. She tiptoed, and snuck out of Olga's bedroom, so as to not wake her. And after a whole long day of cleaning and constant chores, she was finally done for the day.
She made her way to the bedroom to find a change of clothes, in order to change out of the heavily drenched clothes of toilet water and vomit. Luckily, her sisters were fast asleep, and luckily didn't wake up as she walked in. Lila snickered, as she hears both of her twin sisters snoring and sleeping in odd positions. She tiptoes towards them, in efforts to not wake her sisters. She tucks both twins, as they tossed both their blankets to the floor in their sleep — and tucking in Juju with Daisy, where Daisy smiles in her sleep and tightly grips on her ragdoll. Her ragdoll still wasn't fixed, since Lila couldn't find any thread to stitch her sister's doll up. And so Lila made a little arm sling for the little ragdoll with a piece of one of her torn up t-shirts.
Lila quickly plants a soft kiss on both their foreheads, whispering to the twins a goodnight — soon after, she went to see if both letters were still inside her pillow; and was glad that they were. She stores her letters back inside her pillow; takes out some clean clothes from her dresser, sets them on the bed. She then smelled something heavenly, and remembers about the food that her sisters hid for her under the bed. She went and ducked under the bed to see what it was, and couldn't stop drooling as she laid eyes on what she had in her hands. And it was a small to-go box of what looked like bits of chopped chicken, wrapped in a lettuce leaf; covered in a light green sauce. She quickly opened the window, as the lingering and delicious smell of the chicken spread throughout the room. And didn't want Olga finding out that both twins were eating the food that they both brought from the restaurant. Once she had the window open, and hid the chicken back under her bed. She made her way to the bathroom to shower, along with her cleaned clothes to change into. And she couldn't wait to eat her meal, once she was done from her shower.

After her quick, almost long shower. To which Lila almost had a very cold one, since Olga didn't pay for the heating bill yet again. But luckily, she was able to turn the water a tad hot, so that she could take a proper shower and not catch a cold.
It seems that her magic was becoming a little better, but would sometimes agree that she needed some more practice, as her magical abilities don't go as smoothly as she wanted them to be. As she almost showered in boiling water the moment she used her magic to turn the cold water warm — or almost froze over, as she tried making the water a little warmer. But she had accidentally made it ice cold. After focusing on making the water to a perfect temperature, she was able to shower with warm water. And accidentally made a living little bar of soap come to life; turning it into a small little frog — then turned it back into an ordinary bar of soap.

Once she was changed into her cleaned yet tethered clothes. Drying her hair with the now damp towel, and letting her hair down to dry faster. She picked up her dirty clothes from the floor and headed downstairs to put them in the washer to be cleaned; and hung them outside to dry, once they were done washing. It's a good thing I didn't wear my favorite socks today. I knew I had a feeling that something like this would happen. She thought, while sighing in relief, as she smiled down to her striped socks that she decided to wear once she hopped out of the shower, as they were very favorite socks. Once the washer went off — Lila took the wet cleaned clothes from the washer, and stepped outside to have them hung on the clothesline to dry. As she has finished hanging her wet clothes, she spots something flying above her. She quickly looked up and there she saw some sort of winged creature. She wasn't sure what it was, as it had the body of a four-legged creature, and wings of a bird.
Before asking herself what it was, she then sees the creature entering the opened window to her's and her sister's bedroom. From then on, Lila knew that it was another delivery critter, and she quickly went and picked up the four dead mice that she placed by the garden; and hurried back inside. But also making sure she didn't make any noise while she ran inside; so as not to wake twins — more importantly, Olga.
She lightly climbed up the stairs; the way a toddler would climb up a set of stairs. This way, she made less noises as quickened her pace — but it was somewhat fun and comfortable for her to do.
Once she made it up the stairs, she quickly tiptoed to the bedroom. She slowly opened the bedroom door, where it made a loud squeak as she opened the door widely. The sound alarming the critter that was feeding on Lila's chicken that her sisters brought for her.
Before Lila could even argue, or shoo the critter away, she was able to have a better look at the creature that took a few bites of her food. She saw that it was some sort of hybrid of an owl and a weasel. As the creature had the body of a weasel, face of a barn owl; as well as the wings of an owl — implanted on its back. Aside from its bizarre and unique appearance; she quickly notices the medal collar around its neck, as well as its harness. The unique looking creature, then pulls an envelope out from its harness with its beak and hands it to Lila.
Lila quickly locked the bedroom door, sat down, as well as the winged four-legged creature; sitting right beside her — and began opening the envelope, removing the crimson sealment. Where it too came to life, and it too turned into a paper bird, like her acceptance letter. But instead of a stern woman's voice, it was an old man's. And the paper bird began reading gleefully and loudly, catching Lila off guard — making her almost tumble off of her bed. "DEAR MS. EVIE!-" Lila quickly shushes the envelope to quiet down, since her sisters were fast asleep, and also didn't want Olga waking up either. The envelope somehow did as it was told, and began speaking lowly as well as to start over from the beginning:
"Dear, Ms. Evie!-" The letter started speaking lowly, yet excitedly. And it, as well as the voice of the old man, happened to pronounce her last name correctly, unlike the last time.
"This is Gregory Deborah, sending you this paper bird letter — and this Oasel to notify you that I have received your written letter. So there's no need to fret if you grew weary of not delivering it. The good thing about magic is that you're able to enchant things, such as this and your acceptance letter. Also, don't worry too much, my dear. I understood what had written in your letter, as well as Mrs. Rita Fletcher."
The paper bird then finished what it had to say and folded itself back into a letter. Lila looked at the creature that sat beside her on her bed, now knowing that the creature before is an Oasel. Then she stared at the folded letter again, confused about what the paper bird had said just then. As she went and reached inside her pillow to pull out her envelope. As she opened it, she immediately asked it to be quiet as it decided to speak. As she opened the envelope, she pulled out her written letter as well as two other letters inside. The letter that she had sent was somehow stamped in metallic gold ink — with an 'O' insignia, the 'O' being shaped as an Oasel and the school's name displayed below it. The other three were letters she had never seen nor written before. One being a list of things that she needed for school, the other being a letter that seemed to be a class schedule. Unknowingly, the third letter turned into another paper bird and began floating in mid air. And began speaking softly by the same voice of the old man's:
"Ms. Evie,
I had taken the liberty of having your written letter stamped. Letting you know that you are officially a student at Oasel Academy and am pleased to have you as a student.
Congratulations!
The letter sent along with this one, is your class schedule and a list of supplies that you will need for the upcoming term. On which you will need for your first year on the 31st of July. Please note, that to obtain these items and supplies — that you will have to purchase them to Orthegon Alley."
