Chapter 5 Episode Five

MAYA

I walk down the stairs, dragging my luggage along. I'm already prepared to leave. I wouldn't want Mr Ryan to make my life miserable.

"Good morning mum" I said when I saw her in the dinning setting breakfast.

"Morning my princess, how was your night?" she ask

"Nice mum, thanks" I said and took a seat at the dinning.

"So I can see you're ready to leave already" she said

"Yes mum, I have to get ready as early as possible before they change their minds and withdraw the job from me" I said trying to be convincing enough so mum won't notice that im being forced to work.

"I understand my child. The Greenville are never to be dealt with" she said

"Thank goodness you know mum...where's Liam?" I ask

"You're asking as if you don't know your brother"she said smiling and I couldn't help but laugh.

Liam is always at the dinning late because he wants the ladies mouth to drop when he walks into a place. He once said that.

"Good morning mum" Liam said as he took a seat at the dinning. He was already dressed for school and looking so handsome.

"Good morning my little boy" mum said dishing out the food.

"Mum, I'm not little. I'm eighteen - a young adult and not little!" liam said making mum and i went into a round of laughter.

"Why are you guys laughing ? I'm saying the truth okay " he said and roll his eyes. He's always fond of doing that.

"Nobody said that you aren't a young adult. Mum called you little because you're the baby of the house and no one can change that fact" I said and laugh again.

" You won this time , alright I give up" he said raising up his hands.

" That's my bro" I said laughing hard.

"Okay...fine, let's eat already, I don't want to be late for school " he said making us laugh before we started eating.We talk about so many things and kept laughing. Gosh! I'm going to miss them so much.

I wonder how my life in the Greenville's mansion will be. Will it be fun? or everyone will be minding their business ? I pray it will be fun so that I can work with smiles on my face everyday.

It was time for me to leave already. I hug mum and Liam, advising Liam to take care of mum and himself as the young adult that he has become and he said he will try his best. I bade them one last time before entering the cab and zoom off.

This will be the first time I'll be leaving my family. Gosh! I wish dad didn't die, I wouldn't have thought of working as a maid. Especially working at the Greenville's mansion. I hope it goes well while working there. I heard that Mr Ryan's sister is back.

I heard his sister is really cruel. What's her name again?...Charlotte. I heard she's really wicked and that she wouldn't want anyone, not even the maids to talk with his brother. They are to nod their heads when he's giving order respond once or twice.

So many personal maids assigned to him in the past was fired by Charlotte because they talked more than they should to Mr Ryan.I found out about all these last night while browsing the Internet. I wonder if she's going to marry her brother.

Well it's none of my business. I'll just make sure I don't talk too much to Mr Ryan to keep the job so I can use the salary to take care of mum and Liam and to bring back my dad's murder case.

The cab stop at the Greenville's gate and I paid him and came down. I walk to the gate and was careful this time not to press the bell more than twice. The gate was opened after waiting for about five minutes.

I walk from the gate to the main house with the guard that opened the gate. Everywhere was looking so beautiful and sparkling. I wasn't chanced to look around yesterday because of what happened.

The mansion is really heaven on earth just like everyone has said. They must have invested a lot of fortune to build it and it really worth the fortune.

I was taken inside and they got to where...OMG! they got to where Charlotte is and stop. Is she the one to discuss my duty as personal maid to Mr Ryan ?

"Good morning ms" I said bowing.

"Keep your dirty greetings to yourself poor thing and what are you doing here anyways?" she yell.

"I'm...sorry. Em..Mr Ryan told me to resume my duties as his personal maid today. That's..why I'm...here" I said stuttering.

"So you are the dirty swine assign to be my brother's personal maid...hmm...interesting" she said as she stood up and started checking me out and all the while, my head remain bow.

"Do you think you're qualify enough to be my brother's personal maid?" she ask

"I don't know ma'am but I promise to do my best" I said still bowing. I dare not raise my head.

"I can see you're determined to work here. I'll give you the rules you're to abide to while working as Ryan's personal maid" she said and walk back to sit down.

"Your work as his maid is to

•Make his meal,

•Fix his bath,

•Clean his room,and

•Make sure to be there at his beak and calls. But...never you talk to him. You're to nod while he gives his orders and talk when necessary. If you try to disobey me in this mansion, I won't only fire you...I will make sure you suffer before firing you and you won't want to get into my black book" she said and turn to the guard that brought me. "Take her to her quarters" she said and walked away.

Gosh! I knew it...I knew that working in the Greenville's mansion is like working in the Lion's den and I hope I survive it.

CHARLOTTE

Gosh...I'm so angry right now. Why would Ryan assign a new maid without telling me? This morning when he was leaving for work, he told me about the maid he assigned and wanted me to be the one to assign her duties to her.

I was so angry because I didn't want any lady close to him so I can accomplish my mission in Ryan's life by making my friend his wife.

I had no choice but to accept assure him that I was going to do what he said but I'll make sure that bitch get it hot from me in this mansion so she can leave like the others
