I mopped the last space in between the two tables and wiped my brow.
"Whew! That's the last one,"
"Yeah good work today Y/N," TK said.
I smile at him and sneezed.
"You have been sneezing all day. Do you have a cold or something?" He asked leaning on the mop's handle.
"Yeah," I sniff and sigh, "I think so,"
"I think you should stay home. You don't look so good."
"And miss another day of working? No thanks." I sniff again, "Besides, I need this money for school."271Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD71NqYI6DH
The look on his face was clear evidence that he wasn't happy about my decision but he didn't press the matter further.
What can I say?
I'm a stubborn bitch.
I finish cleaning, put on my signature jacket and leave after saying goodbye to him. It was dark out so I quickly rush home and open the door to see someone making dinner.
"What the...who are you?"
The woman stared at me and smiled. "Good evening. How can I help you?"
I cock an eyebrow and pinch the bridge of my nose.
Maybe I was so exhausted that I started hallucinating?
"Who are you?'
The person looked at me like I had grown three heads and dropped the ladle. "I'm the new maid."
My head snapped up at that. "A maid?"
"Why yes," she gave me a warm smile. "I was employed yesterday."
Yesterday? "DAAAAAAAAAAAD!"
"What?"
"KITCHEN NOW!"
It took him thirty minutes to arrive with a pissed off look on his face. "What do you want?"
I point at the maid, "Who is she?"
He folded his arms. "Who do you think she is?"
This made me face palm and pass my hand over my face. "Seriously dad? You hired a maid?"
"Well with you shirking your duties in the house I had no choice," he replied. "Plus she's a great addition to the family and makes excellent mac and cheese,"
"I also know how to make pumpkin pie, spaghetti bolognese and..."
I raise my hand to cut her off mid sentence and look at my dad again. "Dad?"
"What?"
"Do you know what happened to the last maid we hired?"
His eyes widened and the maid gave me a confused look.
"What happened to the last maid?" she asked.
"Is she going to live with us?" I ask.
"No she doesn't," he replied and seeing that it took him a few minutes to answer the fucking question, I knew he was lying.
"You know what? Just leave me out of whatever is going to happen after this do you understand?" I say pointing my finger at him. "If something goes wrong with this little arrangement, solve it yourself!"
"Now look here Yasmin..." he says but I cut him off.
"Do-not-drag-me-into-it-the-bullshit!" then I turn to her, "You know what time it is right?"
"Why yes," she looks at the clock, "Its 8:30PM."
"Good! You can catch the 9PM Bus to go back to wherever you live because I want you out of the house by 8:45PM. The bus stop is only a five minutes walk from here."
With that, I stormed off to my room, slam my door and lay on my bed sniffing in my mucus at the same time.
I know, I know but before you start chewing me out for being rude let me tell you what happened to the last maid.
You see my mom may be one of the worse mothers in history but my dad is no angel.
How they got married?
I'll never know.
But I do know is dad is the kind of man who has the inability to keep his pants up and takes any golden opportunity to sleep with women then he blames my mom for it and channels it to me because I am the 'reason' why they got married.
Don't worry. I told him that was nothing but a load of bullshit and he knew it unless he wanted to tell me the truth.
Which he never did.
Anyway, last year we got a maid last year and you guessed it, he got her pregnant. Mom caused up a huge stink and I had to protect the hell spawn Pat from it and believe me it wasn't easy. The maid decided to take advantage over the fight by asserting her dominance by bossing us around and acting like a bitch; a far cry from the person my sisters came to love (I didn't like her from the beginning). The last straw came when she hit Pat across the face with a rolling pin and that's when I knew I had to do something. Hiring a private detective under my father's name, I dug up some information on her and discovered she had a boyfriend so the baby might not be my fathers. We had to endure for nine fucking months until the baby was born to do a DNA test and thank God the baby wasn't his.
I kicked her out and my dad promised to reward me with a Nintendo Switch but didn't make due on that promise fir he gave my mom lots of money to keep quiet about the debacle and bought my sister the latest Barbie Vacation House play set for her trouble.
Now we have a new maid.
Is he for real?
I sighed, sit up and proceed to take off my clothes. Was in the middle of taking off my shirt when I heard a small thump.
"What the..." I turn towards my window and see it was closed but the curtains were pried open giving the leaves on the tree a full view of my half naked body.
"Not today perverts," I mutter closing the curtains and continue to take off my clothes, take a shower, get into bed.
Until tomorrow everyone.
