Hatters workday

                                      Hatter´s busy day

The sun climbed up to the sky very quickly that morning and that´s when Hatter´s work began. He woke up slowly and then he got up from the bed, which was rather difficult since his back was jammed into it´s normal position. He went to get some medicine for the aching back and after that he started to dress up. It also was quite painful, but he had done it million times before. Next was breakfast and after that he opened his store. It didn´t too long when the first customer came in. It was a sheep lady with two little lambs. The lady asked:" Good morning! Is this Hatter´s house and shop?" Hatter turned to them and said while bowing down:" Why yes this is. Are you looking for something special?" One of the lambs said joyfully:" We are looking for a hat to our baby sister!!" "Well, I see. That is quite special then. How old is she?" Hatter said with gentle smile. It turned out that the baby was 2 months old. Hatter searched through different kind of hats looking for a perfect one when few more customers came in. One of them said:" Good morning, mr Hatter! Today is quite beautiful day, isn´t it?" Oh, is it now? I haven´t watched out of window yet I just opened the shop," Hatter answered while standing his back facing to the one who asked." Mr. Hatter? Have you seen that girlboy? I would love to meet him," another customer said. " No, I haven´t for a while. I would say he is in his own dimension with his wife. I actually would like to visit there some day. It sounds so interesting place."" Why haven´t you gone there if you wanna so much?""Well, little one. If I would gone there, your tiny sister wouldn´t have gotten this," he took a tiny baby hat, which was bright yellow and it had white rose on the top. Little lamb´s face turned into huge smile as did others. Lady sheep said:" Oh, that is just gorgeous! How much is it?""Not much. It´s not my way to take too much from baby hats, because they can be very important," Hatter said back as he went to cash register. The sheep family paid, but before they left Hatter asked:" By the way, I´m sorry asking such thing, but if your baby is two months old how is she home alone?""Baha haa, oh silly you! I´m her oldest sister! Mommy is taking care of her of course. Good bye, mr. Hatter!""Of course," he said while blushing a little. More customers came in. Many of them had been Hatter´s customers since he had started his business. One of them was a human like creature with goat horns. He said:" I´m very glad that your business is running well, though you had some hard times, mr. Hatter.""Yes, I have to say that wouldn´t have been possible without Bralice, that girlboy. Thanks to him everything is almost back to normal," Hatter answered with joyful smile." Good morning mr. Hatter!!" Little Spade yelled happily as he and his brother Prince of Spades walked in the shop. Other customers act quite normally though they were royalty. It made Hatter very happy. He asked:" Are you looking for something special, your highness?""Oh, you don´t have to call me that. It is not..." "Yes I have to. It would be obscene not to call you your highness, your highness," Hatter said over Prince´s speech. He sighed and said:" Well, we are going to a picnic with you know who... and this person demands that Little Spade is wearing something extra cute today." Hatter looked where Little Spade was before speaking:" Am I allowed to say "the name"?" Prince answered:"No, I actually haven´t told him yet....""Mr. Hatter! I´m ready to pay!" someone called. So, Hatter went.
Little Spade was watching the hats. He was amazed!! There was blue one with huge fake diamond in it, rainbow colored one sunhat with white ribbon around it and other sunhat, but it was white with rainbow colored ribbon around it. Suddenly he spotted stairs going up. Curiosity won and so he climbed up. Little Spade was happy about his own finding that crouched under Hatter´s bed and fell asleep. Meanwhile downstairs Little Spade´s brother was looking at few hats and Hatter was taking a look at one customer´s broken hat. Yes, Hatter also repaired broken hats. So, he went upstairs and started sewing. Little Spade woke up to the sound of the sewing machine and peeked under the bed. A window was just upon the bed and as Hatter watched it´s way he saw Little Spade. Before he knew the needle of the machine was through his finger."Ahhhhhhhh! Holy...... uhhhh, it hurts!" he yelled while holding on his wrist. Little Spade got scared and went hide again. Prince of Spades came up with few others."What happened?!" they asked. Few customers went to help Hatter and Prince looked around, because it couldn´t be true that Hatter would sew into his own finger just like that. He walked around and then he heard a little sniffing sound under the bed. He looked in there and saw his little brother with teary eyes. Hatter said:" It´s okay, this have happened before I know what to do, but thanks to you all anyway.""What caused this?" one of the customers asked. Hatter answered:" I though I saw something peeking from under my bed.""It was my baby brother. He usually wonders off where ever we are visiting." Little Spade was in his brother´s arms. He said carefully:" I am very.... sorry... mr. Hatter. I wasn´t going to scare you!" Then he snucked his head against his brother. Hatter went confused, walked to them and patted Little Spades head. He said:" Don´t be scared. You didn´t mean to scare me and I´m not going to hurt you. Calm down..." Little Spade looked at him carefully and looked surprised. Prince said:" This is because of Queen of Hearts. She always yells very awful things to my baby brother if he goes missing. All sorts of treaths..." He looked little sad saying that. Suddenly the bell tingled downstairs and someone yelled:" Honey!! Where are you with your very cute little brother!!!" It was Queen of Hearts herself. Little Spade started to shake. Hatter quickly said:" Leave him to me! I´ll take care of him while you go to the picnic. Everything goes much better that way." So, Prince gave his baby brother to Hatter´s arms. He gave his brother kiss on the forehead and then he went downstairs. Hatter said:" It´s you and me now. Would you like to help me out?" Little Spade nodded and so they started working again. Hatter took care of his bleeding finger. Then they went down to the store.
                Little Spade might be very curious and active little prince, but he also was very good boy and helpful, that was sure. Hatter´s working day flew by because of him. Little Spade did all kind of little things to help Hatter like holding the ladder when he climbed to get a hat from on top of a shelf, picking up hats and tools if Hatter happened to drop one. That made Hatter very happy. For once he forgot he had broken and jammed back and Little Spade forgot that his brother was about to marry Red Witch and that his parents were death propably by that same Witch. Working together made them forget all the bad things in their lives. They were free and happy. That last until the night came and so came Little Spade´s brother to get him home. Hatter was just telling a fairytale he had learned from his mother when the bell tingled downstairs. Queen of Hearts came upstairs and Little Spade saw her first. He quickly crouched under Hatter´s bed. Hatter turned his head and said:" You really should take easy on him. He should be the ruler of Spade Villa one day."" Oh mr. Hatter, you know that all creatures know what happened then, what happens now and what is going to happen in the future, but still no one dares to stop me."" I don´t know why I´m surprised.... I have heard everyone talking about it.... talking about the truth.... but yet.... I´m shocked," Prince of Spades said holding his tears. He knew excatly what this Witch had said. The reason of his parents death was someone he was about  to marry. Hatter said:" You should go home. Come Little Spade, time to go home. I´ll take you to home." Prince nodded and so they took Hatter´s very little carriage and donkey.

"I´m very sorry about your misery, your highness, but remember whatever happens you can count on me."

End!!
