"Tell the janitor to come clean this! Also, tell him to pour oil on the floor!" Deshawn's face darkened as cold commands spat out of his mouth.
Deshawn shook his head in disbelief. Why can't that girl just agree to be my maid?!
Seeing Deshawn's anger, Jackson didn't dare say anything more. He quietly exited the room.
Soon, the janitor walked in with Jackson. The janitor cleaned up every single piece of glass shards on the floor and poured some oil by the doorway.
Georgetta was asked by the manager to deliver a bowl of soup to Deshawn's room. She evidently felt more comfortable as her breath calmed down and her anger subsided. Just pretend that he's air, that stupid monster. I don't care about him. Just don't talk to him.
When Georgetta entered the room, she shivered. The increasingly cold temperature made her feel like she's suffocating. She breathed deeply once more before going in to place the dish on the table. Just as she walked in, her feet slid gracefully along the ground and her whole body was suddenly very attracted to the floor. She's falling.
Time seemed to freeze. Geogetta's eyes widened in surprise as she waited for her contact with the floor.
Just before she closed her eyes, she saw a flash of blue. The next second, Georgetta landed on something cold, however soft. Georgetta laid there, immobile because of her shock. Ping! She heard something else collide with the floor and the sound of water dripping. Then, the fragrance of the soup flowed into her nose. Realizing what happened, she gasped and opened her eyes. An unexpected and enlarged image of Deshawn's flawless face filled her vision. She stopped breathing as his dark and mysterious eyes stared right into hers. With his face this close to hers, she freely admired his beauty. Wow. I've never seen anyone as good-looking as him. Lowell can't even compete with his looks.
She almost got lost looking into his eyes.
"Huh. I thought you were different. But no, I was wrong. You are just like the other girls who always admire me because of my looks." When Georgetta was still gazing intently at him, Deshawn's egoistic voice interrupted her thought. Georgetta suddenly woke up from her daydreaming. She was planning to retort his insult when she felt his grip loosen from her waist. She stumbled before gripping the side of the table to stable herself.
"What are you talking about? I was just shocked from falling. Plus, if really were to admire someone's good looks, that someone will never be you." Georgetta glared at him and tried to cover up her embarrassment. Her pride would not allow her to just let this matter slide.
Deshawn rolled his eyes. "Well, this time you dirtied my suit again. How are you planning to pay for this second one?" When he heard her saying that she would never admire him, his anger raised a few notches. Why can't she just say something that I would like to hear?
Georgetta covered her mouth with her hand. Oh gosh! I didn't notice that when he prevented me from falling, I spilled soup onto him!
Georgetta frowned and bit her bottom lip when she realized what kind of soup this was.This oily soup is different from the last one.Once it stains, it stays. I will never be able to clean this one.
"You decided to catch me yourself and I didn't want you to hold onto me. Stop blaming me for getting your own clothes dirty," even thought Georgetta knew that she's guilty, she decided to continue to argue and see if she's lucky enough to avoid further involvement. Avoiding unnecessary attention was not her only reason: she cannot afford to pay for a second expensive suit.
"But still, you ruined my suit." Deshawn didn't back down either and fixed his gaze on Georgetta. Georgetta looked down at the floor, knowing that she's guilty of spilling soup on his shirt.
"I'll wash it for you." Even though she knew that it could not be cleaned, she still clung to the 1% possibility that a miracle could happen.
"How stupid can you be? Did you really think that you can clean this suit? I had to throw away the suit with the faded colour that you washed last time. This time, I won't sacrifice my suit just to forgive you. This suit costs millions of dollars and is made of the best materials available on Earth. Can you even pay for this?" Deshawn lifted one of his eyebrows and looked at Georgetta dubiously.The last time she washed my suit, all the colours faded and I had to throw away the suit.
"I..." Georgetta bit her lower lip, not knowing what to say.
I thought he forgot about that faded suit already. But it seems like he still remembers that incident. Georgetta shuddered, thinking about that horrendous accident. No matter how I tried to be careful, I still made the same mistake. Just great. Now I'm officially on his hate list.
Georgetta's eyeballs almost popped out when she realized something. This suit costs even more than twice the price of the original ruined suit! Even if I sell everything that I have, I still won't have the money to pay for this.
Deshawn felt satisfaction bubbling up his heart when he saw Georgetta silently standing there and looking shocked. He lifted her chin with his hand and locked his gaze with hers. Deshawn almost dropped his hand when he noticed that she looked innocently pretty despite her ugly shirt and pants.
"You know, if you agree to be my personal maid, then you won't have to pay any money for my suit."
Georgetta felt a pang of pain in her chest. I've been fighting for so long...Was that all for nothing?
Deshawn felt a drop of wetness land on his hand. It burned both his hand and his heart.
Before Georgetta could notice his softened expression, he masked his feelings with one of mocking.
"You are such a cry baby. Is that what you do when you hear something that you don't want to hear?"
Georgetta glared at him, muttering curse words under her breath. I don't even fucking care if he thinks of me as a cry baby or not.
"Crying's not going to help you. I'm just going to hate you even more. I'll give you three choices. One, be my maid and serve me everyday. Two, I'll fire both you and the manager of this cafeteria. Three, you will pay me back my money within three days. Think about it carefully. When you're ready, come to class twenty-one and find me." Deshawn slammed the door in her face.
I'm confident that Georgetta won't turn down my offer to become a maid. She will agree.
