The following morning, I woke up at six in the morning. I quickly take a bath and put on the extra clothes that Cassy gives me. I blow dry my hair and tied it in a high ponytail. After that, I went to Grandpa's room to check on him. I smiled to see that he was still sleeping. I went downstairs to the kitchen to prepare Grandpa's breakfast. "Good morning, Nana." She's in the kitchen together with the chef. "Good morning, Mara. Come. Every morning Sir Phil wanted someone to read a newspaper for him while he was eating, and after that, he needed to walk for thirty minutes in the garden behind the Mansion, and after that, you prepare his bath. It would be best to eat first because he will wake up at eight. "Okay, Nana.""Sit down. I'll prepare your food.""No need, Nana, I can do it.""Just sit down." She firmly said, and I gave in and settled in one of the seats. She took a plate and went into the kitchen. A few minutes later, she came back carrying the plate, and she placed it in fron
MARAI went out of Grsndpa's room and went to mine, and took a bath. I sweat when we walk into the garden earlier, so I must bathe again.After bathing and dressing up, I went back to Grandpa's room, and I saw him already dressed up, but his hair was still dripping. "Sit down, Grandpa. Your hair is still dripping wet." He settled on the edge of his bed without arguing, and I quickly took the hairdryer and blew dry his hair."Grandpa, tomorrow I'll cut your hair, okay? It's already long.""You know how to cut hair?" "Yes, before I have a part-time job in a salon. I also know about manicures and pedicures. I'll clean your nails tomorrow as well.""Okay." He said, grinning. When his hair is dry, I brush it and return the hairdryer to the drawer."Where is your shoe, Grandpa?""In there." He pointed to a door on our right side. I quickly went to it and slid the door open, and my eyes widened to see a huge collection of different brands and kinds of shoes."Grandpa, you have lots of shoes
We arrived home past five in the afternoon because of traffic, and I was nervous when I stepped out of the car and saw Sir Jayson standing at the front door waiting for us. Why is he home? He said last night that he would be home late. Why is he here now?"Jay Jay, your home." Grandpa grinned and quickly went to him as soon as he stepped out of the car."My meeting was canceled. That's why I'm home early, Grandpa. Why are you back just now? It's almost six.""We caught in traffic," Grandpa replied. " Can I talk to you?""Let's go inside first." Sir Jayson led him into the living room, and I followed them."Jay Jay, can I ask you a favor?" I want to ask you now because I might forget it later.""What is it, Grandpa?" He asked softly. I noticed that when it comes to his grandfather, Sir Jayson is so soft, like a marshmallow, and I could see he cared for his grandfather so much. That's one of the many things that were admirable about him."Mara's neighbor needs a job. His wife takes care
MARAMa'am Loren went beside him, but he pushed her harshly. Throwing her a few feet away, the syringe she was holding dropped on the floor, broken. "Stay away from me!!! He screamed, and at that moment, Grandpa looked scary. Sir Jayson rushed to help her up. "Are you alright?" "I'm fine." We are all surprised, I've known Grandpa for only a month, but I had never seen him so angry, and he looks scary."Grandpa!!! Why did you do that? Loren just wanted to help you?" Sir Jayson screamed. I gasped when Grandpa quickly crawled away and dived under the bed, and hid there. My palm covers my trembling lips. I'm sure he didn't do this for the first time. I think he crawled under the bed whenever that heartless woman beat him.It broke my heart, and a sob left my lips. My tears streamed down my face. Sir Jayson instantly looks so guilty, with regret on his face. His tears also rolled down his face. Nana also cries while standing behind us."Don't give him any shot for tonight. You can leave
MARAIt took me an hour to finish grooming Grandpa, and I'm happy he liked it. He bathed while I prepared his clothes to change and just lay it on his bed. I went to my room—and bath as well, and changed. Grandpa had already finished dressing up when I returned to him,"Sir Phil, Sir Jayson is already waiting for you downstairs," Nana called outside the door."Okay, Nana, we are coming," Grandpa answered."You're ready?" "Yes, Grandpa, let's go." I lead him out the door, and we use the elevator to go down. Sir Jayson is in the living room with Ma'am Loren, waiting for us."Jay Jay, I thought it was only us? I looked at Ma'am Loren, wondering why I didn't notice this before. She is smiling, but her eyes say other things."Loren asked if she could join us, Grandpa. She's free today, and I said yes because the more, the merrier.""She didn't ask me," Grandpa said, fist balled tightly beside him."Grandpa, can I join..... Ma'am Loren asked, but Grandpa cut her before she could finish what
MARAIt's been two months since I worked at the Fernandez residence. I feel at home here and feel like I found a family in them. Sir Jayson is so kind, and even though how hard I hold myself not to have a feeling for him, I couldn't stop myself. Every day, my feelings for him got deeper, but I could only admire him from afar. I'm not on his level. I am just a servant. I sigh sadly every time I compare our social status. I'm nothing compared to him, and my feelings for him will end in nothing.I slumped on Grandpa's bed while waiting for him to finish his bath. We were just back from his walk after we ate breakfast with Sir Jayson. I thought I was deeply in love with Jared before, but I think I believe it that way because he is my first boyfriend and the only man that I get close to. But after meeting Sir Jayson, I realized I'm not deeply in love with him because he has never crossed my mind since I started working here. All I could think was Sir Jayson, which drove me crazy.His smile
MARAGrandpa, why you suddenly came here? Do you need anything?""Oh, I'm sorry, Jay Jay, but while on our way here, I forgot why I went here.""Mara, do you know why Grandpa wanted to see me?""No, Sir. He didn't tell me why he wanted to see you. He just suddenly dragged me and said that he wanted to see you because he has an important thing to tell you.""Sorry, Jay Jay, if I disturb your work for nothing. I'm sure it's important because I wouldn't be rushing here if it wasn't.""It's okay, Grandpa, just tell me once you remember.""Okay, next time I remember it, I will write it so that even though I forget it, I still have a record of it.""Okay, you do it, Grandpa. You can also write everything you did the whole day so that later on, you can read it.""Okay, I will do that.""Have you eaten lunch?""No, because I wanted to see you. I'm sure it's vital, why did I forget it?"It's okay, Grandpa. I'm sure you'll remember it later. Come on, let's eat lunch together before you go home.
MARAI stood on top of the stairs, with my hands covering my mouth and tears streaming down my face, still shocked at what had happened."What happened? I heard you scream." Sir Jayson rushed beside me. He looks like he just stepped out of the bathroom because his hair is still dripping."Grand....grandpa!!! I cried, pointing down the stairs. He followed where I was pointing with his eyes, and his eyes widened."Grandpa!!! He screamed and ran downstairs. The other helpers come, as well as Nana, all shocked at the scene in front of them."Prepare the car." Sir Jayson screamed, then picked up Grandpa. "Dean, you carry Loren." Sir Jayson said and ran outside. I just stayed in my place, still shocked by what happened. How could she do this to Grandpa? Why does she want to kill him? ***I sat outside the operating room with Nana, Dean, and Sir Jayson. We've been here since two hours ago, but until now, the doctor hasn't come out of the operating room.My tears keep streaming down my face.
