Bella
Reaching the gate of the Wilson, I sat on the ground to get myself back, I was sweating profusely and breathing very fast.Have never trekked like this in my life.
I know am damn late but I just need to be bold.
The security opened the gate and I bow my head close to my knee in greeting him.
He directed me to the part all the new maids are waiting to be addressed by Mrs. Wilson. "You better hurry up young lady except you wish to end up as her scapegoat".
" Thank you so much".
I hasten my footsteps and saw other maids waiting in a single queue which I joined instantly and trying to catch my breath.
One of the maids said to me, "You are lucky you got here before she comes out to address us".
She was right, immediately I joined the queue that was the very moment she came to join us.
I thank God for helping me out today.
I looked in awe when she came in with another girl like my age mate or senior to me if am not mistaken.
You need to see the way she carried herself like she was our boss, I never knew she was the chief maid in the house it was when Mrs. Wilson introduced her to us.
I almost sigh that moment but just didn't.Mrs. Wilson told us what to do and shared our task for us, I was so lucky to be among those that will work inside the house, cleaning, and cooking.
Another thing that gave me joy was the fact that dirty clothes are to be washed with the aid of washing machines.
I thought of bringing the clothes at home to wash here but I argued with my thought, what if I get caught, I can't jeopardize this opportunity else my parents might just chase me out of the house.
Mrs. Wilson was done addressing us and she left with her husband who looks way too handsome.Brenda, the chief maid asked us to come with her, she was walking majestically like she is called out to model for the maid.
Secondly, her make-up was off, if there is any other thing I can do, is makeup.
She showed us the food timetable, what to prepare and also when to resume work and leave work.
She also told us most times, we will be asked to sleepovers and we all should expect it soon.
I started cleaning the living room, it was so beautiful and attractive, well decorated, I must confess the Wilson has good taste.
I checked if anyone was around and I started feeling myself by sitting on the different couch in the living room, some were so soft and others so hard.
I got carried away by what I was doing forgetting the fact that am a maid here then I heard Brenda cleared her throat.
I maintained instantly and I pleaded with her and she said," Seems you are done with this, go to the kitchen and prepare food for the Wilson according to the time table I showed you earlier and if you are caught in this act again, I will deduct from your salary"
She turned around and I just mimicked her and she got me red-handed and I just started smiling foolishly.
I went to the kitchen to prepare the chicken soup, stew, and made rice as well and it was tasty.
I was about taking in some when the devil herself came in and I just looked for a way to cover up my act and she did a sign of my eyes are on you.

After everything, it was 5 pm already, I had to take permission from Brenda that am done for the day and going home.
She just answered me like a piece of trash and some of the maids were painting her nails like she is some boss or what.
Coming out from the compound, it was dawn on me that am trekking home.
I trek to the house, I was almost collapsing and I remembered have not had food since morning. I was thirsty that I needed water and I was lucky to see my sister with a bottle of water.
I begged her to help with water to drink that am dying of taste and work was so stressful.
She empties the water and said, if you want water, go and drink from the tap and what took you so long, am very hungry, dinner was supposed to be ready by now. Be fast in preparing dinner"
I almost shed tears for what just happened.
I had to go to the kitchen and drank water from the rushing tap on the sink, wash the dishes, and prepared yam porridge.
When the food was ready, I went to have my bath and wore my house clothes that are comfortable for me to sleep, I greeted my parents and took my plate from the rack to dish my food.
Opening the pot, I saw the food is almost finished, what was left was just two pieces of yam and porridge soup.
My sister came in, dropping her plates, and said, "Nice meal, such a good cook, please don't forget to wash my clothes before leaving to work sis".
I ate the remaining food, it was not enough for me, I entered my storage room and started crying.
I wake up at 3:45 am daily to finish the house chores and trekking to work and I always arrived at work so early.

*We were all called for a quick announcement by Brenda, the chief maid.
" As you must all know, The Wilson son will be coming back from the states today and we are to prepare a very nice meal for his return, note, you must not have eye contact with him, you dare not talk to him, his your boss too".
We nodded in agreement
I was feeling sleepy but I was asked to clean the boss's son's room, I finished cleaning it and was so tired that I couldn't cheat nature from sleeping.
I fell on his room floor and started sleeping forgetting about what Brenda said earlier.

KyleShould I go and help her with a lift or not?.I thought about it for a moment but why should I care for a maid.Secondly, I don't even know her that well, she crossed the line and I should have yelled at her but instead, I was just too calm.This is so not me right, let me just forget the first sight stuff and sleep.I entered the bed and covered but was restless because I was more concerned about her whereabouts and if she is safe now on that lonely lane.Is she that selfish not to take a taxi and using her foot to trek home when she knows it's late and not proper for a reasonable lady to walk home lonely at this hour.I couldn't bear it anymore that I had to change to a smart outfit and entered my baby I love so much, my black Ferrari and I also hug my Lamborghini and thinking which I used to use t
Bella" Holy Christ, you mean your father did this to you? This is devilish of them", she exclaimed as I became emotional again remembering everything and cried uncontrollably."I feel hurt you know, I have no parental love, I try my best to be a perfect daughter? Is it that my life is not balanced enough? My younger one gets everything, they made it to the extent I will be in the same class with her. I have dreams but am a dropout now, working as a maid, meaning I have no hope". I said as my voice was breaking and I was still crying.My friend tried hugging me to make me feel better but I felt the pains on my body and shout in pain." Am so sorry, that hurt. I won't lie I feel for you dear friend" she said."I have an hour left before going to work please can you help me with food, am starving?", I asked her." Sure come in wit
Bella" Who did this you Bella?", he asked.I was dumb for seconds but I can't tell him my parents did this"Just a minor accident sir, I will get going now, enjoy your meal", I said to him bowing my head."If you leave without my approval, just know you are fired", he ordered me." God what have I gotten myself into now?", I said mentally."Alright sir, please don't fire me", I said to him." Good, now where is the jacket I gave to you, you were supposed to return it, go and get it", he said then I remembered I left it in my storage room."Sir please", I went on my knees, "I forgot it at home but promise to bring it back tomorrow, please just pardon me for today, you can still punish me for me failing to return it to you today
KyleI just hate mom reaction to the maid, this is totally not fair."Mom that was harsh and you know that," I spoke to mom calmly."What if am harsh, am suppose to scold you right now. What on earth do you think you are doing? Are you flirting with that maid for real or was she seducing you hum?", Mom fires back at me." Mom you don't expect me to stoop so low and be flirting with the maid working for us, she is just helping me carry a task I gave to her and nothing else", I tried calming my mom." What task could that be? Do you mean being shirtless in her presence hum? I don't want this to repeat itself. Never should you even associated with her okay, what will Clara say if she was the one that comes in here", Mom brought up Clara's issue that has been avoiding for a long time now even on our call conservation."Mom, I don't see anything related to Clara in this matter on ground, what if she come
Bella"Mom please", I started pleading but my sister was kind of increasing their temper towards me." You really are a spoilt brat", my sister added.I got beaten by my mom while my dad just stood and watch, the bruises I had before started bleeding and the pains came back this time around and more painful than earlier when I got the bruises.She pushed me out of the house and it was freaking cold out here."You useless child, you are sleeping outside this night after which you learn your lessons, you won't be selling your body and this jacket, you are returning it from where you brought it and if I should still find it in this house, I would sell it and you won't get damn from it".I feared and promise myself to return it to my boss's son the next day, I remembered he said the jacke
BellaI was in a strange place when my mother shouted at me, "You silly girl, I will deal with you when you get home today, just wait for it", I started begging her that was when I woke up in a room that is all white.I wondered where I was at the moment, the place looks so strange and I never remembered coming here, all that I could remember was that I was trying my very best to carry my legs to work, then I was blank totally and I am waking up in a strange place.Then I heard a familiar voice say," Hey, you awake", my boss's son said with a short smile on his face.I know am dead, "Sorry where am I sir?", I asked him." You are at the hospital, you lucky I was driving home when I saw you trekking and slump on the road, I had to help you so I brought you here for treatment. Should I say you are the lucky one, I believe am always available to help you in times of ne
KyleI was waiting patiently for her to step out, I am not regretting having time with her so I get to meet her after which today, I won't be having time with her again.I brought out my phone looking at the pictures we took earlier, I notice how cute and genuine her smile is.Immediately her arrival was announced and behold she stepped out and a wow escape my lips.She looks extremely beautiful and perfect now for me to go on a date with her than what she was wearing earlier.She is such a fast learner as she walked stylishly to me just the way I taught her.She got close to me but missed her step that was when I hold her from falling as we both glance at each other.We were in that way for some seconds then I broke the silence with her."You look beautiful and different, shall we?", and she nodded yes.
