Gazing at the full bouquet of blood red roses she held close to her chest, she suddenly startled as a rather broken and haunting wedding song started playing in the background.
Eyes wide and with a small gasp she gazed around her, looking at the sea of broken, old and empty chairs placed on either side of the aisle she was slowly walking upon.
"Nana!""Nana please get down here now!"He loudly called after the maid as he held the unconscious girl into his arms, his dark eyes worriedly roaming all over her delicate features as he then proceeded to gently place her over the couch, however still keeping an arm under the back of her neck as he attentively examined her, momentarily leaning a little bit closer to listen to the sounds of her breat
Wiping the sweat off of her brow with the hem of her tank top, she bent over and kept on plucking the overly-grown weeds from the round porcelain pots, stopping to catch her breath from time to time as even if it was still morning, the sun was already beating down the glass-made roof, creating a proper environment rather fit for a sauna room."Oh boy, this heat is killing me," She heard Dan whine from somewhere close to her, turning aside to watch him approach her with a small bottle of water in his hand.
Taking a glance from time to time at that vertical and visible wound through the tear in Nicholas' t-shirt, she quietly trailed right after him as he carried an unconscious Dan in his arms, from the greenhouse and all the way to the mansion.Pushing the door open for him to enter, she waited then got in as well and closed the door behind them, hurrying to follow the male as he rapidly walked all the way to the grand living room.
Turning the key into ignition for the third time, she moaned in complaint as the engine still made the same choking sound before dying out yet again."Oh you've got to be kidding me!" She cried, letting out a whine before she got out of the car and went to pop up the hood.This was bad. She only had twenty more minutes before her shift would start yet the damned old thing before her called a car would
The pitter-patter of heavily pouring rain clashed with the comforting silence of her childhood home as Diana sat in her usual spot at the dining table, absently chewing on some cornflakes with milk while her mind constantly flew off to other places, bound by the worries no young woman of her age should ever have.Her large green eyes glazed over, absently staring at the small rivulets of water trailing down the window as the prospect of another day of non-stop working hung so heavy on her slender shoulders, chased away over and over again by that sole thought; the wellbeing of her mother.
She painfully bit her lip in a stupid attempt to hold back a sob, the lukewarm water spraying from above her head mixing with the tears falling down her cheeks as she stood in her bathroom shower, her mind replaying over and over again those last words that cruel woman had said to her, effectively getting herself rid of her like of a rotten tooth.And that over the goddamn phone.
"Ready babe?" The young male grinned at his friend as he turned the steering wheel and took the first turn to the right and off of the main road, entering a gravel path between tall and rich trees.They were now driving to King's Estate just like that old lady had instructed over the phone yesterday, the girl still sulking in her seat as she had openly expressed her disapprovement of the whole ordeal.
Going through everything she had packed in her traveling suitcase for the millionth time in a single hour, she sighed and worryingly bit her lip since she was still not sure she had taken everything she needed.Truth to be told, she didn't even know what she needed. Did she really need that many clothes? Will she wear a uniform or something? She knew rich people usually made their staff wear a uniform so maybe she didn't need to take so many clothes with her after all...Or maybe she did? Because miss Nancy, the nice old maid didn't exactly tell her how often she will be allowed to go home...

Fastly scribbling down the order, her gaze then quickly returned to the customer."Would that be all, miss?" She smiled at the nice young lady, receiving only a nod before she turned to go and take another one's order."What can I get you..." The words died down within her throat, immediately freezing when her eyes meet those dark brown ones, so intensely gazing right back into her own.
Turning the knob, she quietly entered the small hallway of her own home, gently putting the roses over the small table sitting by the hanger as she started to take off her jacket and boots, unintentionally also knocking a decorative plastic bowl over."Baby, is that you?" She heard that familiar feminine voice call from upstairs, right before two sets of footsteps thudded over the carpeted stairs.
Gently blowing into the steaming mug, she took another sip of the delicious coffee as she gazed through the large window, the sun already beaming at her, even if it was still early in the morning.And what a beautiful day it will be,She widely smiled as the thought of finally going to visit her mo
For days on end, it had became her routine to do both her jobs, go to bed then wake up throughout the night to go downstairs and listen to him play, his slow and sometimes sad songs deeply reaching to the strings of her heart as she would sometimes even find herself shedding a few tears whilst sitting there, in her usual spot behind the wall.Tonight was no different as she sat there yet again, her back resting against the wall as she hugged her knees close to her chest, so lost within her own mind as she closely listened to the wonderful lullaby tune.
