His Maid 64: Out of Bounds
I had finished cleaning upstairs and carried the cleaning supplies downstairs. Dominic and Hale were seated downstairs. Dominic was scrolling through his laptop while Hale was on his phone and then occasionally, Dominic would pick up his phone, chat angrily with someone and then put it back down. “Sir, where do you want me to clean?” I asked “Anywhere except here,” he replied while he continued to press the keyboard of his laptop angrily“Even the office?” I questioned He looked up at me as if he was about to kill me. “I tell you when you can clean my office. From there, you clean other parts of the house.” Dominic answered.I nodded and walked away. “What’s in your office that you don’t want her to touch?” Hale asked. I was in the kitchen cleaning and washing up the dishes, so I definitely got a better chance to hear whatever they were going to talk about. And I just knew that Dominic would not want to answer seeing that I was still within range. “No, it’s just my office is my
His Maid 65: All the same
“Are you ready to order something?” the waiter came back and asked me“Uhm… a few more minutes,” I responded. There was no way I could afford any of the food there. I could but I did not bring enough money for that and if Dominic made me eat there constantly, I would be spending my salary there. I sat in the seat, wondering what I should do. I opened my phone and checked the map app for any nearby places but all of them required me to get a cab and I did not bring money for a cab. I knew I could not go back to Dominic’s home feeling hungry. He was the type to make me wait till dinner time. I continued to flip through the pages in the menu hoping that maybe it was just the starters that were expensive. But I was wrong. I continued to flip through the menu and everything was out of my budget. I pulled out my phone and debated if I should find the next best eating place or just go back home but even then, I was too embarrassed to use my phone given the type of phone I had. “Vanilla B
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
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 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 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 01: This was it!
This was it!I took a deep breath, the crisp morning air clinging to the edges of my nerves as I stood before the imposing gates of Dominic Hall’s Mansion.If all ran smoothly, this would be the new place I would work at. A shift in my life. I pulled down and readjusted my blouse, exchanged glances with my reflection in the polished metal of the gate, and pressed the intercom button. The gates creaked open, revealing a whole different world. The Mansion loomed ahead, it’s grandeur intimidating yet enticing. I stepped onto the manicured path; it felt like I was walking in a dream or an unreal place. This place was fantasy-like. “Name!” A male voice barked the second I took more than 2 steps into the yard. Frightened, I hurriedly looked around to see the owner of this male voice. I turned around and found a male guard standing there under some trees next to what appeared to be his little shed or building thing. Stanley. That was the name stitched and sewn neatly on his blazer. “Har
His Maid 02: Close the damn door!
“Close the damn door!” the female who was in that room barked at me. With shaky hands and a fast-beating heart, I exited the room and closed the door. I was too stunned even to walk away. I just remained at the closed door as I felt the blood practically drain out of my body. What had I just witnessed? And what was that room about? “I asked you if you locked the door, and you said yes,” the male voice spoke angrily. Then, I heard things drop and make all these loud noises. I was too shocked even to address the faces that were in that room, but all I saw was two nude bodies- a male and a female. I remained at the door as I caught my breath, and panic and embarrassment began to fill my body. After finally cooling down a bit, I finally walked back to the dining room, pulled out a chair and sat down. I nervously bit my nails as I replayed that brief thing I had just witnessed. The disturbing and disgusting memory was engraved and embossed in my tiny brain. I bit each fingernail as th
