Narrative:
Upon parking at the gate the purser made the announcement for the crew to: 'flight attendants prepare doors for arrival' at which point both I and the flight attendant #4 disarmed our doors. My door was 3L and her door was 3R. After this action; we both declared aloud: 'my door disarmed.' with this additional check we made sure our doors were in the disarmed position. Sometime after the passenger exited the plane; service cleaners came on aboard. While the cabin was being svced; I had taken a position near the auxiliary galley when we were informed that a slide deployed.
