"A good friend of mine is looking for a maid. You can raise money from that to save your mother." He looked at her eyes and shrugged. That was the last thing Elisa was expecting. But in her present condition, she had no choice. She needed to raise money quickly to save her beloved mother.
"I will accept it Sir," she forced herself to smile and at the same time, tears rolled down her cheeks she had cleaned before. From a classic white collar job to a menial work. What a switch of mental focus because of the action of her ex boyfriend. "If you like, you should ignore your house chores," her boss disdained her. Without being sarcastic to her boss, she asked his friend for the address of his friend. "Wait, let me call him to see if he has seen someone else." The man took his phone and called his friend who needed a maid. "Tell her to come," Elisa overheard the phone conversation. The man took a sheet of paper and wrote the house address and she left the office. Elisa got home by noon. This was her first time coming home at that time after starting that job a year ago. Her face was very sad. She would have looked for another job, but there was no time for that. She needed money to send to her mother for her treatment. As she stepped in front of her door, she saw a new writings on her door again, "Please forgive me. I don't have anywhere to sleep." "You better have nowhere to sleep, after turning my life upside down." She entered her house, brought out the same brush and cleaned the writings. She went inside and sat down on the chair and started thinking about how her life will become as a maid. Suddenly, her phone rang. She opened her bag and saw that it was Douglas who was calling. She quickly ended the call and went to her phone settings and blocked his number.****** Early the next morning, Elisa took her bath and stood in front of her wardrobe. She was confused about what to wear. "I just need to dress according to this new job." She thought and she took a off-white gown and wore it. "I don't even know the terms of this work."She took a small black bag and went out of her house. In her bag was her phone and the address of the house she was going to. She stopped a cab and they drove away. They were heading to Park View Estate. This estate was home to the heavily rich men in city B and it took the car fifty-five minutes from Elisa's house. She came down from the cab and stood before the white mansion. She took a deep breath and walked towards the house. She pressed the bell. After a few minutes, a lady with glamorous makeup opened the door. She had pout lips, dark brown eyes and a small nose. She looked at Elisa from her feet to her face and there was a bubbling gum in her mouth. For the first few seconds, she was looking for words to address Elisa. "Good morning Ma," Elisa greeted. "I'm here for the vacancy of the maid."The lady seemed impressed by the type of shoes on her feet. "You are supposed to resume yesterday." She spoke unfriendly. "Come inside," she added.Elisa and the lady entered the gloriously decorated sitting room and the door was left open. "Who will close the door for you? Your work starts now?" She opened her eyes at Elisa. Elisa went back and gently closed the door and walked back to the lady. This was Loveth, the fiancee of a billionaire named Alex. "Have you done this work before?" Loveth sat down on a white couch and her legs were crossed. In front of her was a long wine glass filled with transparent wine. "No ma." "I can see it in your eyes. I will be your mistress as long as you carefully follow my instructions." She paused and looked at Elisa. Loveth took her glass cup and sipped from it. "You better go into the kitchen and make yourself busy. When the butler comes, he will take you around. Then after my breakfast, I will analyse your work for you step by step." She made a snapping sound as Elisa worked away. Some minutes later, Alex came down from the stairs. He was wearing white thick wool nightgown. "I thought you were talking to someone some minutes ago?" "Yes darling. It's the maid I requested." "Where is she?" He finally came down from the stairs. "She is clearing the kitchen." "Where is James?" He asked. "Is not yet back."Alex walked to the wine bar and filled a glass with wine. Alex had a long face with a well-maintained side beard connected to his mustache. He has light blue colored eyes. They were deep and expressive, as you could get lost if you stare long enough. His Gracian nose and his thin lips gave him a very handsome look. He had well-built abdominal muscles, a broad chest, and a visible six packs. He held his glass and walked to the middle of the sitting room, close to his fiancee. The place was quiet. Suddenly Elisa entered the sitting room and broke the silence. "Excuse me ma, where can I get an apron?"Alex immediately turned his eyes to the voice and at the same time, the wine in his right hand fell from his hand at that sharp turn and hit the floor, spilling some wine on Loveth's clothes. "Oh my goodness! See what this good for nothing maid had caused." She squeezed her face. "I'm sorry ma." Elisa quickly took the blame. "Why will you shock my fiance like that? I told you the butler will take you around." Loveth was still angry while Alex looked at Elisa with curiosity. "Is this the new maid?" He asked. "Yes, if you are not satisfied with her, we better send her away right now. She is getting on my nerves," Loveth stood up and she looked upset, and Elisa's heart started beating very fast. "How unfortunate I am for my first encounter with my mistress. Please don't send me away." Elisa quickly thought as she looked at Alex and waited for his response.Loveth did not wait for Alex to say something before she thundered, after seeing that much of Alex's wine spilled on her legs and very short skirt."You better come and clean this place." Loveth quickly went away and climbed the stairs to her bedroom. While Elisa turned and went to the kitchen to look for something to clean the wine on the floor.Alex sat down and waited for Elisa to come back to the sitting room. After some minutes, he stood up and went towards the kitchen. He found a nervous Elisa coming out of the kitchen with empty hands."I'm sorry Sir," she greeted with her hands on her back and she quickly looked at the floor."Come, let me take you to the laundry room. This is James' work, but let me assist you. In the laundry room, you can find something to clean the floor."His voice was like a drop of water on the surface of a calm sea and Elisa felt relief at once."I'm sorry Sir," she said again."It wasn't your fault. But next time, you need to be careful." They both wen
Elisa immediately turned back after having the feeling of seeing a ghost. To her surprise, it was Mr. Alex. His legs on the floor were noiseless and as Elisa regained herself. There was ease on her face when she saw that it was no other person, but Alex."Bring me a glass of wine to my room.""Okay Sir," and as she was about removing the oven mitts from her hands, she asked,"Which of the wines Sir?""The same one you made me poured away." He said and was looking at her."Same one? How will I know?" She thought. She tried to regain the smell of the wine and Alex saw her puzzling eyes."Give me a glass of Merlot wine," then he left the kitchen. Elisa reduced the gas flames and this made her spend more seconds in the kitchen. When she got to the sitting room, she saw Loveth. Her glimpse of her was fearful. She looked at Elisa as she went close to the wine bar. Immediately as she opened one of the glass doors of the bar, Loveth wanted to say something, she shook her body and stamped her
"Nothing ma." He stood still."Are you trying to hide something from me?" She stood up and widened her brown eyes at him."Nothing much ma, just that Mr. Alex asked me to send some money into the maid's account.""Why?" She asked surprisedly."I guess because of her health." He replied.Loveth slightly moved her body left and right while she stamped her feet on the floor.Hmmm…You may go." She said and went straight to the kitchen. When Elisa saw her ducking eyes and the way she entered the kitchen, she thought she had come to demand for her breakfast she had previously asked for."I'm about to bring your food," she spoke with suppressed apprehension."I'm not here for the food. I'm here to ask you a question." She took a breath of confidence and asked."Why do you come into this house when you know right well that you are sick?""What's happening my God? This is my first day of work." She quickly thought and during this time, Loveth was waiting."Am I not talking to somebody?" She mo
"I'm looking at her necklace," Alex replied.Loveth stood up in anger and put her hand on the necklace and dragged it. Her dragged detached necklace and the pendant was in her hand."If it is the necklace you are looking at, then I will better remove the necklace from her neck."Alex became angry. He stood up and left the dining table. Elisa could not challenge the surprising action of her mistress. She stood helplessly as she looked at Loveth holding the pendant of her necklace."Please give me the pendant. It was given to me by my mum. Please," she cried out."If this is what you want to use to seduce my fiance, then you have failed. He has nothing to do with you. You brat." She spoke to her face."I never wanted to do what you are thinking of, please give me my pendant." Elisa stretched her right hand towards Loveth."Get out of my sight, now," Loveth shouted. "What are you going to do? Fight me? Get your flirting hands away from my sight. Rubbish. See what you caused. Your cheap s
"But please, can't I open my eyes and follow you? I have a phobia for darkness. It frightened me so much that I want to pass out.""No problem, but give me your hand and let us go."They entered the lift again and they went up and stopped on the last floor."Come, this place is like a paradise, built to be seen by a person with a good heart. No one has the key or code to this door." He unlocked the door with his eyes and they went in.From the first step into the art gallery, there was an aura of a different world. It was like a cave, with ancient lighting. There were so many art works on the walls of this place. It was beautiful and the fine artistic works took Elisa's fear away. It was an admiration of one artwork that led to another."Wow…" she exclaimed unconsciously and walked inside and Alex was intrigued. This was the expression he wished the one he will bring here will express. The artworks were engraved in the wall. She walked in and was admiring and touching them while Alex
"Yes Sir. But I have been waiting and watching her to take the right step. And most importantly, I need your approval. I don't want to be ungrateful to do such in your house."Alex was looking at him as he voiced what seemed so dear to him."Okay." He bent the handle of his door and went into his room. James was still standing close to the door when Alex closed his door. It was as if Alex was dreaming."What just happened?" He shook his head as he first sat down. "What have I done? Why did I allow my feelings to push me to say those words to my maid? She lied to me. No, no." He hit his fingertips on the table. Does she think she is so smart that she can successfully date me and my butler? That is nonsense, a let down on my way. I should have been patient enough. Oh! no. Can you imagine? I wanted to engage her because of my uncontrollable feelings for her. But right now, the words of James, I will distance myself from her." Alex stood up from the chair and took his car key."What if Ja
"My master has been giving some kind of preference from the day I started working. You know when the opposite sex wants to always be there for you. He was so kind from our first encounter. I felt at ease whenever he was around me and I was not afraid of telling him anything. When I told him that I needed money for my mum's health, he paid my three months salary ahead. The way he does it, made…" She paused."Made...what?" Sophia was eager to know."Made his fiance jealous.""That wasn't your fault.""It's my fault. Let me land." Elisa replied."Then go on, are you hiding something from me?""No. Just this morning, I was arranging their breakfast on the dining table. What I felt was a splash of water on my chest." She touched her breasts and stood up to demonstrate how it actually happened."What are you looking at? His fiance asked my boss. I was so shocked. I was the one she poured water on. I never expected it. You know, when you bend your body, someone could see your breasts. Next t
"I went to see my female friend," Elisa replied. Loveth stared at her in dismay. "I wished today was my last day here. I would have challenged her," Elisa thought.Loveth brought out her phone and gave it to Elisa, "I'm still waiting for the phone number." "I went to see my girlfriend." She insisted. "Liar." She spoke authoritatively. "The only way you will enter this house is that James has to look at your private part to see if there is a stain of sperm…" "What?" Elisa shouted before she could finish. Then a text message entered Loveth's phone and both of them heard the message tone. Loveth quickly checked her phone and smiled. She spent a few seconds reading the message. "My fiance just messaged me. He said you should pack your belongings and leave the house before he comes back from work. According to him, he does not want to meet you here." She wanted to show Elisa the message, when she suddenly stopped and turned her face as she heard the sound of a car driv
