His Maid 38: Another Visitor
I woke up the next morning, and the first thing my eyes landed on was the rent increase notice that Adam had happily come to drop off the previous day. I got showered, ate breakfast and packed my clothes. My maid uniform smelt awful from all the sweat and different things that had poured on it, but all of my clothes were even worse because I had not taken any time to sort out my laundry. There were washing machines available in the basement for everyone in the apartment to use, but Adam was too much of a cheap man, and all of us had to cough up a few cents in order to use them, which was as good as driving your dirty laundry to some laundromat in town and getting it done there. Also, there had been cases of a few people complaining that their clothes disappeared from the washing machines only for Adam to sell them on the side. So, I had no choice but to pack my dirty clothes into my tote bag and head out of my house. “Harper Holmes…” Adam said the second he saw me going down the fl
His Maid 39: The Order
I entered the mansion and walked around first to inspect it. The place did not cleaning at all. It was still very clean, and I wondered why Dominic always bothered me to come every time and why he even wanted me to stay with him so that I could get to cleaning earlier. After inspecting the house and walking around, I decided I would go to the guest bathroom and get changed from there. Unlike the tiny room, the bathroom had a lock, and I felt slightly safer knowing that I could get dressed in a room with a lock. I quickly slid on my maid uniform, which smelled really awful from a weird combination of body odor, sweat, and everything else. Then I slid on my heels and carried my bag and belongings out of the bathroom with me. “Were you changing from there?” As luck would have it, I would open the bathroom door and find Dominic standing there in his pyjama top and pants, still holding his newspaper and mug of whatever. He had a puzzled look on his face. “Uhm… yes, I was changing in t
His Maid 40: Not tonight
Sadie walked up to me with a smile plastered on her face as if we had been friends all those many years she decided to harass me. “Oh my, look at you. You’re fat from the last time I saw you.” she hugged me tightly as she squeezed my arms, my waist and then down to my bums. “Nice to see you too, Sadie.” I squeezed her back but let go immediately. She stepped back to get a better look at me. She had a huge bag slung around her arm. Was she staying over? “What are you doing here?” she asked “Oh, she was just about to leave.” Dominic quickly replied I looked at him in disbelief and then just settled for nodding. I walked over to the tiny bedroom and closed the door. “I knew you would not be ready. Imagine, after intentionally delaying at the mall, you still managed to be late.” I could hear Sadie telling Dominic. “I am ready, trust me. I just need to take a quick shower, and then we can get started.” Dominic replied to her. After dressing up, I walked out of the small room and
His Maid 41: Hide & Seek
“YOU DID WHAT?!” she yelled.“Shhh… keep your voice down.” I hushed her “Adam will come running up here thinking it’s time for a conversation.” “Sorry. You did what?” she asked in a lower voice. “I don’t know. He has been offering his place for a while.” I shrugged“That’s totally not weird.” she sarcastically replied “Your boss offered you his place after hearing that your landlord increased the rent within short notice.” “Oh no. This was before the landlord increased the rent.” I explained “Then your boss just wants to sleep with you and get to see you walking around his house naked.” she said.Her bringing up that Dominic would just want to see me naked gave me chills and goosebumps. I mean, the other time I was there, he almost ended up completely naked in front of me had I not put my foot down and then the next day he saw my chest and me in my skimpy panties. But I did not want to discuss it with her. She would have made it a bigger issue than it was. “No, he was more or les
His Maid 42: Messy? Dirty?
“HOMER!” Dominic yelled angrily as his hands quickly covered his bottom part, and then he reversed back into the room. I was not sure if I should continue running forward and end up in the kitchen or run back to the tiny room or eventually sprint out of the mansion. I had already been traumatised by Sadie, and then seeing Dominic like that made me feel even worse. I froze in the same spot until I decided to run straight to the kitchen. I prayed and hoped he would not come to the kitchen to get a glass of water still nude. Still feeling shaken and panicked, I remained in the kitchen for some time, trying to catch my breath. I bit on my nails and the cuticles nervously. One of my cuticles peeled so far deep and back that I started to bleed. I knew I could not rinse the blood off in the kitchen sink, meaning the only other solution was to go out of the kitchen and head to any of the bathrooms to rinse it off. But I was terrified of finding Dominic roaming around nude. I did not mind s
His Maid 43: One of Them
“Now, instead of standing there and being so proud of yourself, clean this place up. You heard Sadie. This place is filthy. I pay you too much just to be lazing around.” he continued to speak loudly and then turned away. He walked to his office and slammed his door so loudly. I was left in the same spot he reprimanded me in. I was too stunned even to take a step. My eyes began to water up as I just processed everything that happened. Eventually, I slowly walked away. I went back to the kitchen to finish off cleaning what I had started on and then grabbed the other cleaning supplies and tiptoed around the house. Dominic stayed in his office practically the whole day. I only heard the door being opened once or twice when I was upstairs. It was as if he checked first to see if I was around before he could move about. I felt really bad. He had always been in some bad mood, but that day, he locked himself in the office. I wondered how I was to tell him that I wanted to move in suddenly,
His Maid 44: Changing and Renovating
I subtly followed them around the house as Dominic showed Aaron what apparently needed reparing and fixing. To me and Aaron, it was nothing big. It was just tiny cracks on the wall, paint slowly peeling off and a random tiny crack on one of the tiles of the floor. To Dominic, it was a disaster waiting to happen. He claimed that if there was suddenly a natural disaster, the whole house would fall apart. If there was a random thunderstorm, the whole building would collapse just because of those cracks. And then, he took him upstairs and showed him one of the bedrooms that had always been locked ever since I started working there. Was he decorating and renovating it for me? It was a simple bedroom. Just a big bed in the middle of the room and two bedside tables on either side, and a small closet. There were no paintings or curtains in that room, but it was still way better than the room he had made me change in. “All of this has to go,” Dominic said “All of what?” Aaron asked in sho
His Maid 45: Wax
After cleaning the rest of the house, I slowly walked to the office. I reluctantly headed there, but there was no other way of informing Dominic that I was leaving. I knocked on the door and did not hear a reply, but I heard as if something was being played on his laptop or phone. I knocked again, only a little harder. Still, nothing. I slowly twisted the door handle, but the door was locked. I turned away automatically, assuming that he was not in the office. But where would he have gone? I never saw him leave the house. I never saw him go upstairs, and I never even heard his footsteps. I walked back to the office door. I gently knocked on it again and tried twisting the handle. Then, whatever sound came from his laptop or phone suddenly stopped, and I heard the sound of his feet walking on the floor. He unlocked the door and then looked at me. “Perfect timing…” he said sarcastically“I just came to inform you that I am going home. I am done for the day.” I answered He pushed m

His Maid 74: Stop Apologising
“My my, this looks cosy.” Dominic faked a chuckle. I broke eye contact with Joshua and hurried to the kitchen and reached out for a bowl. Because Dominic is much taller than me and has a certain order for how his things should be organised, he placed all the bowls towards the back, causing one of them to slip out of my hands and fall to the ground. “HOMER!” Dominic yelled at me while I stared at the broken pieces of glass right at my feet. “I am so sorry.” I hurried off to get the broom and dustpan. “It was an accident.” Joshua sighed as he came out of the bathroom to peep at what happened. Dominic, on the other hand, did not look too pleased. He had already worn his grumpy face by then and was starting to growl. “I am so so sorry, sir.” I apologised as I started to sweep up the mess. “Why are you so clumsy?!” Dominic asked angrily“Look, these things happen.” Joshua started to defend me“Joshua, it’s okay. You don’t need to speak up for me.” I quickly snapped at him“I am only
His Maid 73: Like a princess
“I am sorry sir, for lying earlier. Emma Scorsone is a good friend of mine.” I finally answered “Then why do the records say that she is your sister?” he asked. I felt like everything was just getting worse and worse and going against me. Anything I said would just make everything much worse. I imagined if I had just settled for telling the truth from the start, I would not be in such a messy situation. “I don’t know. Maybe when she was arriving, she must have said something about being my sister to Wilbur and Stanley. I am not sure.” I twisted some few words around hoping it would not come back to haunt me. “Okay,” he said I remained standing above him for some more time. “Can I help you with something?” he asked “I just wanted to know where else the cameras are,” I said worriedly “They are only in the kitchen, living room, dining room and like the corridors. I am thinking of installing at least one or two in here,” he replied “So, there is none in the room I sleep in?” I as
His Maid 72: Cameras
“Homer, who is Emma Scorsone?” he asked again, only his face was starting to get a bit more serious.I knew I was definitely getting into more trouble by pretending to not know who he was talking about. “Uhm…” I still wondered what I was going to say“You know, this could end quicker if you just told the truth.” he sighed “I don’t know who Emma Scorsone is, sir?” I lied quickly “Really?” he queried I nodded. I wondered how he discovered the name and why he was asking me about her. Did the Stanley or Wilbur tell him about Emma coming over? I assumed he had surveillance cameras around the house but he would have probably asked who I was with and not the name. So, I decided that Stanley or Wilbur most probably told him about her. “Finish cleaning up the dishes and then we will come and have a talk,” he said and walked out of the kitchen. I gulped nervously. I had no way out. In times like that, I wished I did not live with him because I would have probably ran off and pretended to
His Maid 71: Questions
“What a day!” the sound of Dominic’s voice scared me from a deep sleep. “Homer, you can’t be sleeping on the couch!”I slowly opened my eyes and rubbed them to find an angry Dominic standing above me. “There is a room for you to do all the sleeping you want to do,” he said. “I am really sorry, sir.” I stood up and apologised. He walked away, clearly irritated while I debated if I should go and take a nap, or just shower and get out of my maid uniform and call it an early night. “I am so exhausted!” Dominic groaned “How was it?” I asked “It was actually really lovely. I enjoyed it. We went to an art gallery. Her younger sister just actually just opened an art gallery so we saw a few pieces, might buy a few for my house and then we went for lunch to this Japanese restaurant. I was not really a fan of the sushi. I have better sushi but she enjoyed it and then after all that, we went to the park and walked.” he answered “So, it was a date?” I asked “No, no. Not a date. I am not th
His Maid 70: My Visitor
As soon as Dominic’s car disappeared, Emma’s car showed up, all before Stan and Wilbur could close the gate. So, Dominic must have passed Emma. “Ma’am, you’re lost. You might want to make a U-turn.” Wilbur said“No, I am not lost. I believe I am at the right place,” she answered. Emma was the last person Stanley and Wilbur wanted to fight with. Even if they were just doing their job, she would still manage to find a way to fight them. “Do you know anyone here?” Stanley asked “I am here to see my sister, Harper Holmes.” She answered “HOLMES!” Wilbur called my name. I walked out of the house nervously. I did not know what Stan or Wilbur could do now that Dominic was not around and Rebecca had stopped showing up. I did not know if Dominic had left either of them in charge. “Yes?” I replied as soon as I reached them. “Well, don’t you look adorable in your little uniform,” Emma said excitedly “Is this your sister?” Wilbur asked. I mean technically she was not my sister but if I s
His Maid 69: Plans for today
“I am sorry sir,” I blushed as I asked him to repeat what he had just said “I was saying that we need to come up with a plan for your sleepwear,” he repeated while his eyes traced all over my body once again“Why?” I looked down at my outfit as I felt my cheeks heat up. He kept quiet and continued to look at me. “Because…” he finally shrugged “Because what?” I questioned, “Did Sadie say something?” “No, no.” he laughed “Okay, the both of you guys need to stop with your weird competition or whatever it is.” I wondered what he meant. Did Sadie also ask if I had said something to him? I mean, most definitely if he was saying that we need to stop with our competition. I did not want to ask him what he meant by the competition because he would start talking about that and forget the whole conversation about sleepwear. “So, why are we coming up with a plan for my sleepwear?” I dared to ask again“I don’t know. I just guess we should come up with one.” he shrugged “Then what if I ref
His Maid 68: Threat
After devouring the very spicy food, I washed up the dishes and went to the room to sleep. I could hear Dominic and Sadie laughing from upstairs and I wondered if they were laughing at me. But eventually, I was beyond fatigued and dozed off. ***I woke up early the next morning to the sound of footsteps and laughter in the house. I got out of bed and walked out of the room to find Sadie in the kitchen, laughing. But there was no Dominic with her. I noticed she had her phone on her ear and was laughing loudly. “Wait, I will talk to you later.” she said and then ended the call and looked up at me “Humiliating Holmes, did I wake you up?” “Uhm… yes actually.” I sighed tiredly “I am sorry or am I really sorry? Anyway, isn’t it time for you to get cleaning? I suggest you start on it sooner before Dom comes downstairs and starts reprimanding you.” she said with a fake smile on her face. I found myself rolling my eyes at whatever she said. Sadie just annoyed me. She had been annoying me
His Maid 67: Noodles
I was left to stand in the living room, wondering what I would make for dinner and how much I would need to make. I had already struggled to make breakfast the other day, now he wanted to me to make dinner. I walked over to the kitchen trying to scratch my head for any possible recipes I might have known. All I knew how to make was mac and cheese where the instructions were neatly printed on the box. And I just knew that Dominic would not have cheap mac and cheese boxes in his pantry. I opened his pantry and found a variety of things to make but I had no clue of how to make them. I wondered if I should bother dressing back up into my clothes to head back to the eating place. But I did not have enough money for that. My phone was too full to download a delivery app. I stood in the kitchen, wondering what I would do as I searched the pantry. Until I found a packet of noodles shining at the back and quickly grabbed them. They looked like a unique type of brand to me. They were definite
His Maid 66: Not cheap
We walked out of the restaurant in some awkward silence. “Okay, why are you quiet? What’s wrong?” I asked, feeling confused and annoyed“Nothing is wrong.” he shrugged“No, something is wrong. You were all happy and laughing and smiling and then after the phone call, you went dark.” I answered “Nothing is wrong,” he repeated “Okay then, so can we go back to how things were before?” “Look, I think you should head back to work or wherever you were before you get in trouble. Besides, I am also busy too. I have somewhere to be.” He slowly started to walk away - the opposite direction of where I was going. “Well, thank you for today,” I said awkwardly before he pulled out his phone and started to speak on it. Of course, he would have that expensive type of phone while I was using my brick with cracks all over the screen. I walked down the road and headed back to Dominic’s house. At least Hale’s car was not there anymore, meaning that he had left. There was something about Hale that
