"Eriol-sama, where are you taking your food?" asked Nakuru when she saw me tiptoeing upstairs with my plate.

"Upstairs. I'm going to eat my food there as I study." Before she could ask further questions, I ran up to my room as fast as I could.

I threw the door open, just in time to see my genie coming out from the bathroom dressed in a skimpy towel that reaches only up to her mid-thighs!

I felt my face burn to the extreme. "What the hell-"

She casually sat down my bed, her wet hair dripping on my neatly-laid satin bedsheet. "Dinner!" she cheered.

"D-Do you want to dress up first? You might get cold," I suggested awkwardly as I averted my gaze from her.

"Ok," She took off the towel. TOOK OFF THE TOWEL IN FRONT OF ME!

I could feel smoke come out of my ears. "Wait-!"

In a millisecond, she was dressed in another fancy costume again. I barely saw flesh! I paused, humiliated. What the hell did I just say?

She twirled around, wearing a blue costume that reminded me of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. She then sat down to eat.

"What is your name?" I asked, trying to strike a conversation.

"Mrmph,wrmph, urmph," she replied.

"Do not talk with your mouth full!" I gently scolded her.

"I don't have a name. You can just call me 'genie' if you want, Master," she said a minute later.

I wrinkled my forehead. "I think I know my first wish already."

"Really?" she said in interest.

"I wish I can name you after my favorite flower."

"Is that really your wish?" she asked skeptically. "Are you sure you don't want wealth or the life of your enemy?"

"I told you, I already have everything I could want in my life now. I might as well make wishes for other people," I explained.

"I see." She tipped her chin up inquiringly. "So what will be my name?"

I smiled. "Tomoyo."

"Your wish is my command!" replied Tomoyo.
