I followed closely behind White as he led me gently through his guests. I managed to plaster an elegant smile on my face; I could feel the heat on my body as jealous women stared at me. Of course they had to be jealous, who wouldn’t want White holding your hand?‘Me.’ I mentally screamed at myself.The plan was to catch something scandalous to taint white, not to be his plus one. Or companion. Whatever he calls it.I softly bump into his firm back, making him turn to look at me. He had stopped to talk to one of the guests, he looked old with gray white hairs but his skin was smooth and lacked wrinkles.‘Ah money.’ I remarked.He wore a dark gray suit, with a white shirt. Besides him stood a younger woman almost as my age or even younger than me, like most men in the room did. She wore a ton of makeup on her face and a red flirtiest daring dress, which firmly hugged her figure.“Are you okay my dear?” White, whom I suppose didn’t even know my name asked incredibly tender and gentle.I
"Damn it I'm late." June cursed swinging her handbag over her shoulder and continued running through the busy streets of New York whilst her messy pony tail kept brushing her neck.She hated how crowded it always got around the dusk while many folks were rushing about for a family dinner, a handsome sleep at night and everything else. She rushed about for her third shift.It was almost weekend so she had gotten plenty of time to close her eyelids, since Mrs. Smith didn't work on Fridays June didn't have to babysit the Smith twins which was so relieving but that meant little cash too much to June's dismay.She took a sharp turn around the corner down the road where large and lighted letters came to life.MARS.Just like the planet or just like the month itself in French.Music was buzzing throughout the entire place by the time she entered through the back door. Meaning she was late and they've opened."Just about damn time." A voice snapped and June flinched as she prayed that today wo
“I have a deal.” Clara announced as soon as the devilishly handsome rich man had left which reminded June that she had a woman before her asking for her. She didn’t even know if that was the right term.Maybe want was a perfect fit.‘What could she possibly want? She looked happy and married.' She thought.If anything any employee was less interested in at this club was the word you. Of course unless you were some sick weirdo, the offers were always crazy with even crazy prices. June has always believed that God only preferred crazy people to be richer so that they'd spend it on nonsense while other people like her mother were rotting in the hospital, ready to die of cancer due to insufficient funds."I'm sorry but I'm afraid I'm not on the menu." she replied carefully, her eyes lingering on the woman's ring long enough."Oh, of course not. I'm not here for that or whatever your dirty mind thought." the woman says raising her fingers in the air so that June can look at the big diamond
"I know some people might want this but I'm sorry i can't kill." she says shaking her head refusing to listen to the devil in her head. It was not what she was born for and she knew. She knew none of her parents especially her mother would be proud go her. That would not be the woman she had born and raised with love, she'd break to death."My God, your imagination works way too far," paused Clara feigning a surprised gesture. "It's not about killing; wouldn't you like to make them pay? Or lose everything too, suffer maybe. And experience the hell they put you through." she asks and June only stays silent whilst a raging battle goes on her oblique side that only she knew."I think I'm too busy for your job." June says going back to her cleaning."I can help you." Clara paused her fingers grazing the bottle she drunk from but June ignired her still,"With your mother and a nice Cheque." Clara says which suddenly caught June's attention.If anything she was fed up with was chatting wit
The very next day June was to meet Clara Donovan at the address she had sent her via text and when she stood in front of the building.'oh boy this was not a meet up place, it is a freaking large company.' she had thought amused.The building was so tall, around eight stories high. June walked in slowly feeling sensitive as people gazed at her. she had tried her best to look presentable to meet Clara. Clara was wealthy obviously so June didn't want to embarrass herself by looking like a little garbage.She wore a black skirt hugging her curves which stopped just above her knees with a pink peplum top tucked in and a simple pair of black stilettos. Her hair was let down in a long neat ponytail making her face features seem exposed.June walked to the lobby attendant and asked if she could see Clara Donovan. The lady at the desk looked kind and had smiled at her the entire time, and after a minute she told her that Clara would be on the seventh floor.June thanked the lady and headed fo
June sat on the bench holding her mother's pale hand. She looked like a beautiful flower whose nectar was sucked off along with its life. But she never failed to smile whenever she saw her daughter. She wore a red beanie and a scarf around her neck. Her fragile figure sat in a wheelchair covered by a turtleneck sweater and a pair of pants, feet covered in white socks."You look so lost today." She commented in her small voice giving her daughter a small pat on her shoulder."What?" June asked, looking shocked for a while recovering from her thoughts."Is there any problem? Perhaps work?" Her mother asked but June had to shake her head in denial."Nothing much. Just shifting to a new job." she added to her mother's slightly raised brows."It's not like your first day in kindergarten. You'll do fine because you're my flesh." Her mother said, holding her daughter's face in her hands with a warm bright smile."Please don't mention it already." June replied with chuckles at the memory of h
The door opened and behind it stood a middle aged tan woman in a dark blue and white uniform and June could only assume that the woman was a housemaid. The woman's face lit up with a small smile as she held the door open for June to enter."You must be the nanny?" The maid asked June, still standing in the doorway."Yes." June nodded with a small smile and the maid moved out of the way for June to enter into the foyer of the mansion."Madame is waiting for you in the garden, follow me." The maid offered to which June accepted with a simple nod.Well this was everything's starting line. She felt nervous but she had to do it, to go in there and betray strangers she never met. Her mother was dying and this was her only hope.She
June's feet carried her behind Mr. White who kept a steady pace as he led her down the corridor and took another turn to a long corridor with a single room at the end. Reaching the door he paused and looked at June as if considering his thoughts before pushing the door open and walking inside while leaving it open for June to follow him in.She had to admit that whatever she expected was in no way anything similar to what she encountered. She had anticipated love like a magical fairy roller-coaster tale like Lydia and Miles always looked like in the magazines or interviews.She hadn't fantasized about the idea of a cheating boss. That was out of her imagination since she never sympathized with dishonesty or cheaters and right now she was on the verge of talking her piece of mind out loud to Mr. White if he hadn't pre

Xx.~~~~~~~~~~As soon as we reached the place of the venue, Kiah's chauffeur rushed out to open the door for me first before I gently took Kiah out of the car.I nearly lost my balance as blinding flashes hit my eyes uncontrollably. I hadn't expected to be the center of the attention just because I was with Kiah. But well, she carried the white surname."Excuse me, why are you with Kiah?" one reporter asked as the security guided us through."Where is her mother?""Are you the new stepmom?""What's your name?"The questions kept coming and at this moment I felt uncomfortable. I mean I have always dreamed of being some celebrity but if these were the questions I'd have to face in such mood and setting, my dreams can fly away for now I wouldn't mind.I felt Kiah's littl
"Hello?" White's voice came through from the other line confused.Of course, Kiah would usually call her father in the evening before her bedtime. But for some odd reasons she never contacted her mother.Perhaps she was too busy to find time for her own daughter."Daddy!" Kiah's excitedly chirped the moment she heard her father."How are you my love?" White asked ever so softly his daughter.His voice was smooth and tender. It was just so soothing to hear as he talked to Kiah."I'm not good." Kiah said in a low voice.Her act was so good that White was worried the next second. "What's wrong? Isn't that friend of yours with you?" He asked his voice laced with concern and worry.Of course I was listening to the whole conversation and something in my turned when he mentioned me as that friend instead of my name which I doubted he even knew.'At least he didn't call you that nanny' my subconscious chimed in."She is but still," Kiah replied deliberately pausing to raise the concern in h
I opened my eyes to search for my phone which kept ringing non stop."Why didn't I turn it off?" i muttered to myself in a groan.Normally, I would turn off my phone or put it in a do not disturb mode before I went to sleep.I lazily reached across the bed to the night stand and grabbed it and decided that this time I'll answer it."Hello?" I lazily picked up the phone."Are you sleeping?" My mother's voice immediately jolts me awake.Panic starts to kick in, my heart thrashing wildly in my chest."Are you okay mom? Do you need anything? Are you sick?" I ask immediately getting on my feet in alarm."Good morning to you too." She answers instead with a sweet chuckle.I check my phone to see I have ten missed calls from her already."How are you?" I ask, sitting at the edge of my bed still worried although she sounded fine."You need to calm down love," she pauses for a second but my heart refuses to calm down. Instead it feels like it was about to burst."So what's up? You called me te
The ride back home was tense and I barely breathed.I lied to White when he asked if I had touched the laptop, and now I was praying so hard that the man Clara has said would take care of the footages already did.Kiah sat snuggled next to me in her father's expensive Mercedes. She would steal glances at me every now and then and throw me innocent, cute smiles, which I'd return.She looked like she now liked me already.The car slowly pulled up in front of the front door and White immediately sprinted out of the car without saying a word.Meanwhile I stayed behind waiting up for Kiah to decide whether she wanted to go inside or not."Do you think I should play outside?" Kiah's voice snapped me out of my trance.I had my fingers crossed that I wouldn't get caught."Well, it depends on what you'd like to play," I said gently, bending to her level my hands now on my knees.She scrunched her nose then started humming as if she was trying to think of she wanted."What games do you play?" S
The whole afternoon was slightly uncomfortable for June since Mr. White had insisted on keeping company with his daughter, Kiah. the sweet little one that June had met when she went to see Clara.Upon seeing her, she was happy and relieved that the child was sweet unlike many of the other kids she had babysat. she had tried to avoid his gaze or any communication. He didn't want to talk to her after the theater but he only wanted to look at her."Daddy?" Kiah broke the silence over the table.After the dentist appointment, she wanted a day out with her daddy since he was never really around most of the time.Now they were sitting in one of the expensive comfiest restaurants in town while outside his bodyguards were loaded with weapons hidden and on display as if there was
