All Chapters of His Maid: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

It did not make sense. Nothing they were saying made sense. I continued to stand still in the kitchen as I tried to connect the dots. As I continued to process the most probably disturbing information, I heard chairs being pushed around and footsteps. I quickly grabbed the dishcloth and pretended to wipe the surfaces, and then Dominic walked into the kitchen. “Homer, please wash these,” he said as he handed me a saucer with cutlery and a mug. I walked up to him and got the dishes from him, and then turned to the sink. “And be sure not to break any.” He added on in a lower and more intimidating voice. I gulped nervously and then started to wash the dishes. “Rebecca, can you handle any calls for me? I have to go to work today. I have two meetings. The first one is with Nelson Avery, and then, the next one, I will meet with the interns I am supposed to employ at my company.” Dominic spoke in a hurry “Interns?” Rebecca asked with confusion laced in her voice.“Yes. Apparently, I ac

“Glad to see you’ve joined me,” Stanley said as he wrapped a towel around his waist and stepped out of the shower. “Uhm…” I froze at the door, not sure of what to do next. “Either get undressing and join me or close the door on your way out,” he said with a serious expression on his face. I slowly walked back and closed the door. “Where have you been?” Rebecca questioned as she walked back from wherever she went.“Uhh…” I stammered as I thought of a lie quickly. The freezing and just saying ‘uhmm’ seemed to be my response to every question I got. “Anyway, there are like 2 dishes to wash in the sink,” she said “Okay, miss.” I nodded as I walked back to get my shoes. “Just… try not to break any more dishes again,” she added on. I slid on my shoes and walked to the kitchen, and cleaned the dishes that were in the sink. At that point, I was idle. I paced around the house, wondering what needed cleaning next since Rebecca decided to dump herself in the office. After a few minutes

I struggled to sleep the whole night. Firstly, because I was itchy from not having a good wash in a while, and secondly, from seeing how the stories of Dominic Hall had disappeared off the internet. I stayed up the whole night. I heard my neighbours enter their house in such a noisy manner; then I heard the taps make that weird coughing sound. I heard the birds make chirpy sounds as the sun slowly came out and the different neighbourhood dogs barking the whole night. But eventually, when the whole world was quiet, I closed my eyes and began to drift off. Suddenly, there was a loud banging and knocking sound on my front door. I rolled out of my bed, grabbed my phone, squinted at the screen and saw it was past 11 am. I quickly grabbed my gown, wrapped my body in it and then walked to the front door. I opened it and found Adam standing there in his light blue tank top, an odd shade of orange shorts and his flip-flops, which showed his disgustingly shaped toenails. “Do you not own a mo

I stood there, confused. I mean, it could be other things too, but it could also be the whole thing of his stories disappearing. “Oh yes, Homer?” he called out“Yes?” I replied “Could you please clean my bedroom? It is very messy again.” he sighed “Okay,” I answered and carried off my supplies. He asked nicely; he did not bark at me for not adding the ‘sir’ at the end of my response. He was in such a good mood, and it disgusted me. Was it his birthday? Was he going out on a date? Did he hit the jackpot or with the lottery? I had all these thoughts spiralling in my head, wondering why he would suddenly be in such a good mood out of nowhere. I reached the bedroom and found it as messy as expected. He had clothes thrown everywhere, his bed was not laid, and there was an expected puddle of water in the bathroom. Was he trying to turn his bathroom into a swimming pool or something? This time, there was something different. There was a laptop on his large messy bed. I walked over to

I froze. It was always about a guest when he would suddenly order me to clean up quickly. Was it Ruby? Was it Sadie? Was it Rebecca? Was it another female?We had reached the kitchen, and there was a slim and short woman standing by one of the countertops. She had an apron and a chef’s hat under her black outfit that looked like surgical scrubs. A chef? A caterer? Who was this special guest?“Homer, meet Winston, Winston, meet Homer.” Dominic said as he pointed around, “Homer, I need this kitchen squeaky clean as soon Winston is done with here.” He walked out of the kitchen, and I stood there, puzzled. I looked at this lady pouring things into a bowl, whisking them, and then running to another end of the kitchen to pick something else, then back to her gigantic bowl. “Hey, I am Harper Holmes.” I cleared my throat and tried to start a conversation“So, he also gets your name wrong.” she laughed “I am Ari Wilson.” So, I wasn’t the only one that had to deal with him calling me anoth
