Mary was new to the household; and she had been working there for a month or so now. And the strange thing was; she had never met the doctor once. But she had seen him; walking around to his lab across from the house, or seen him in the hallway but she had never spoke to him or walked up to him. And right now; she was simply leaning against the counter in the kitchen, cutting up onions and carrots for the Doctor's dinner. But her ears were perked as she was listening to an interesting conversation going on on the other side of the kitchen. A conversation she was very interested in.

"His name is Mr. Hyde! I've only seen a glimpse of him in the doctor's office! He truly looks like a dark man." the lead maid said; Mrs. Alberten. [Made it up] Mrs. Alberten was a chubby short lady who was like a mother figure to Mary; and was always there for her, helping her out alot since she was new to the household and she taught her tricks and things to how to work around the house.

"Mmm... I bet he's a formal man. To be an assistant of the doctor he would need to have a scientific interest and a formal dress." the butler said, a stiff and stuck up old man that didn't find Mary appealing and had been sort of rough on her. Mary kept chopping up the onions and carrots, sighing a bit as she kept listening and she poured the vegetables into the large pot on the stove.

"I heard he was staying at that snotty woman's place... where they have those prostitutes. I heard he was making a huge mess there." said another maid; one a bit older then Mary who shared a bed with her, and her name was Laura. Mary kept cutting and she then would put her knife down and wipe some sweat off her forehead.

"Mary. Would you please take that tea and bread to the Doctor's office. It's almost time for him to have his tea and snacks." Mrs. Alberten said sweetly. Mary had never delivered the tray to the Doctor's office. Mary picked up the elegant silver tray and made her way down the hallway and up a flight of stairs and down another hallway to a half open door. She walked inside, looking around the large office where she saw so many books and artifacts and elegant furniture. She slowly walked to a table in front of a cough and set the tray down and stood up straight, looking around.

Henry Jekyll hunched over a book of financial records. His brow was beaded with sweat, and he looked at the various entries. He'd had to pay that woman off so many times...and now she was asking for even more money to secure her silence. This was getting out of hand....he knew it wasn't sustainable. It would come to an end one way or another. What could he do....

The stress mounted until he stood up abruptly from the couch and strode over to the window, looking outside. It was a cloudy day, which seemed to aptly reflect the lack of productivity which was taking place inside the house. Jekyll had done almost no work at all, he'd just been looking over the accounts. Other doctors of course would hire an accountant, but what with the various dealins that had been taking place in his affairs...no, Jekyll had to keep this away from prying eyes.

There was a noise in the middle of the room, and Jekyll span around in alarm. What he was saw a pretty young maid bringing in a tray with his afternoon tea. He knew that there were some new staff in the house, but he'd assumed that he'd had sight of them all. Yet this girl he'd not come across before.

"Many thanks," he said, trying to regain his composure as he walked over to the couch. "have you been in my service long my dear? I apologise if I seem rude, but I don't believe I've seen you before. I can be very busy, but I think it's proper to at least know the staff by name. So then, you are...?"

Mary didn't notice the doctor was actually in his office and she too jumped when he spun around to face her. Her heart had raced a bit as she cleared her throat and kept her head lowered towards her, some of her hair falling by her face as she put her hands on her skirt. "No... I've been here for a month, sir. My name is Mary Reilly. I'm still learning the ways of the household, sir. Do forgive me if I was disturbing you.... Mrs. Alberten instructed me to bring your tea to you." she said politely and she glanced up at him with her blue eyes.

She observed him carefully; looking over his hair color, skin color... even what he was wearing. Mary took pride in observing people; it was something she was actually good with. Mary would stand straight, now putting her hands behind her back as she waited for him to either further the conversation or dismiss her so he could be alone.

“I see,” Jekyll said flatly, one corner of his mouth curling up in what could have been a bemused smirk. “well I’m sure you’ll do just fine Mary. Mrs Alberten is a very efficient head of staff, and always brings people up to speed in good time. I’ll trust that she made a good choice in hiring you.”

Jekyll knew of other homeowners who had a policy of hiring the prettiest girls who came looking for work. He imagined that anyone who saw Mary would probably think that he himself had adopted that same policy, though in reality he’d had nothing to do with the hiring process. But her fresh, young face would make a refreshing change to the stern, sour visage of Mrs Alberten; even though she was hired to do a job, not to look good, it was nice to have her brightening up the place.

“And certainly don’t worry about disturbing me,” he said, straightening up. “if I’m keen enough not to be disturbed, believe me I shall have already made myself truly scarce.”

He thought for a moment. The day was dragging so slowly, would it be such a bad thing to push the boundaries of propriety and ask a personal question of the staff?

“So Mary,” he said tentatively, “how are you finding it so far? Is this your first term of service in a private household?”

Mary listened to him, her eyes trained at him as he kept observing him and her keen ears took in every word. Her hands were still behind her back as she would clear her dry throat and she would keep her head slightly lowered. "It's better then the other households I've worked in, sir. I've been serving in houses since I was a little child so I've gone through the routine. I'm still getting used to this household though. It's just kinder then the other ones I've been in." Mary answered to him, and then she would feel the apron on her dress slipping and she quickly tied it tight around her slim waist and she looked back at him.

“Ah.” Jekyll said with a nod and an enigmatic smile. “Well then may your time of service here be a lengthy one. Or at least as long as it pleases you to be with us.”

He gave a slight huff of mild laughter. He was certainly breaking with convention in saying such things, but it was a nice change to be talking to someone who wanted pomped up with their own theories and research, or trying to find technical faults in everything you say. But given the special...situation that had transpired lately, he would have to try to influence Mary’s areas of work so as to keep her out of potential harm’s way. He would really rather she not have to meet Mr Hyde...

“Well I shall detain you no longer,” he said with a smile, “I’m sure Mrs Alberten has you on a busy schedule. My thanks for the tea.”

With that he turned towards the window, and listened for her leaving.

Mary bowed her head and she stared at him for a minute before she turned and she left quickly, closing the door behind her. Her heart was pounding. So that was Dr. Jekyll. He seemed like a charming and polite doctor who had a sense of maturity. She would smile lightly as she walked down the hallway and back down the flight of stairs. Mrs. Alberten was waiting for her in the kitchen with a smile and held up a live eel in her arms. Mary almost threw up.

"Come, dear. Time to make dinner." she said as she held the eel down. "Come hold this down while I hack off the head." Mary was turning pale as she slowly walked over and put her hands on the cold slimy eel that was wriggling around underneath and she felt her stomach churn. She looked away when Mrs. Alberten chopped off the head, and she instantly ran to the washroom and threw up into the sink.

As soon as Mary was out of the room, Jekyll took a seat on the sofa and looked at the tray. It was a welcome pick-up; breakfast seemed like a long time away. He poured a cup of tea from the pot and added a little milk. The first sip was heavenly, the first thing to have passed his lips since the early hours.

Also on the tray were a few sealed letters. His eyes fell on one in particular; the handwriting on the front was all to familiar. With a sense of exhaustion and dread he opened it and removed the handwritter letter inside. After skimming the words for as little time as necessary, he put his hand to his chin and sighed. She was asking for more money. Not that the money was a problem; goodness knows if only the woman had a little more savvy and less scruple she'd probably ask for a lot more. But if anyone caught wind of the amount of cash that was being passed between them...it would be almost impossible to explain. Damn you Hyde! He was proving the be the most expensive addiction a doctor had ever fallen foul to...but the discoveries that could be made...

He brushed it off and tucked the letter into his jacket. He would stop by and visit her presently. Nobody else must know of this. Finishing his afternoon tea, he closed his ledger and filed it away in the safe.
