SARAHMy eyes slowly fluttered open, a yawn escaping my parched lungs. My head felt like the weight of a dumbbell the moment I sat up on the bed, throbbing at the back, I guess I was having a migraine.My vision was hazy so it took a while for it to adjust to my surroundings. As it unfolded, I slowly realised I was in my room.How did I get here? I was under the rain hours ago I presume. Did Emilio bring me in himself?My eyes darted to the windows and it was still evident that the rain was still falling as it splattered across the closed windows.My eyes then moved to the digital clock on the wall and the time got me shrieking. This was eight in the night. Time really flew so fast. When I and Emilio came back it was still around noon though the rain made it seem like it was dusk.Had I been standing under the rain from noon till dusk? "Awww" I held onto my head, the migraine throbbing regardless.My eyes moved around my dark room, fear creeping unto me for some reason. My room w

SARAH"Uhm Luca, I prepared breakfast" I informed him. Luca adverted his focus from his phone to me and his eyes shone with delight."Splendid. By the way how was your night?" He asked as he stood up from the sofa."Well after you finally turned down the volume of the music, I got some sleep" I snapped at him which earned me his boyish grin."C'mon now princess don't sound like that. I am not a boring dude like my cousin. I am very outgoing" he smirked. "And friendly too" he added as we both sat on the chairs in the dining area.Well truthfully he was far friendlier than Emilio. Ever since his arrival yesterday by noon, we haven't really had any serious issues. After I prepared a meal for him, I practically did not set my eyes on him again till around 10 pm. Truly he was outgoing.And the way he spoke, his behaviour in general was quite different from Emilio's. He always passed me a compliment at any given chance. His smile never left his lips. Maybe I was wrong about him after all.

SARAH "What the fuck!?" Emilio thundered the moment he walked in. Luca immediately let go of me and veered his eyes towards Emilio.I was frozen with fear. My trepadized orbs couldn't bring itself to look Emilio in the eye. I casted my gaze to the floor and firmly clenched on to my gown like it could vanish any minute.Silence, a terrible deafening silence spread through out the mansion, neither I nor Luca willing to say a word. "Can someone tell me what the fuck is going on here!?"Emilio yelled intensely once more, making me shudder. His angered tone like a sharp knife, pierced through the stillness of the atmosphere, reverberating in the walls of the mansion."Bro it's not what it looks like. We, I mean I can explain" Luca finally spoke up.What did he mean by we? He was the one eager to kiss me out of the blue not me.Thank God he retracted his statement."Explain what bullshit!? I walked in on you fucking making out with my maid! You had your filthy hands all over her. Don't

SARAH It's been close to a week now ever since that dreadful incident and indeed my life here has not been any better.Emilio and I really did not see eye to eye throughout these trying days.He always made sure to find a way to torture me daily and make life miserable.If it wasn't yelling at me in the presence of the numerous staffs that worked here, it was forcing me to stay out in the cold or pouring food on me, denying me of my meals, seizing my phone at times, and the list went on and on.Sometimes it still beats me on why he bought me if he was going to make hell out of my life.I was better off without him in my life. I was better off living on the streets than this hell.A lone tear trickled down my cheeks as I stared at the ceiling of my room in a daze, expecting everything to just be a nightmare and for me to wake up in the arms of my late parents.If only wishes were horses, beggars would definitely ride.Suddenly, a knock on the door chimed into my thoughts."Who is it?

EMILIO I tried keeping up with Sarah and Luca, observing and watching their every move and body language. I can't even lie, I was freaking tensed knowing Luca was all over Sarah, my own maid!He has so many sluts and girlfriends, why couldn't he bring one of them here as his date? Why must it be Sarah?Does he like her or is he just using her as a fling?And most importantly does she like him too?Man I can not even concentrate! This arrogant brat of a maid shouldn't have so much control over my thoughts and emotions. I tried so much not to concern myself with her activities tonight but Luca keeps hovering over her.He won't keep his filthy hands to himself and it makes me so mad. I can literally kill him right now!Man if not for the fact that we were business partners, I'd never invite him over for this party.Goddamit! I watched them from afar, the raging anger within me mirroring in my eyes as Luca danced with Sarah. She looked so happy, the happiest I had ever seen her since I
