The man didn't seem to care about what he was wearing. Fernando chose to sit on the sofa while reading messages on his smartphone.
"Until when are you standing there? Quickly wash up, then come out with me," said Fernando coldly as he threw a change of clothes for Viona.
Viona received the clothes then walked quickly to the bathroom and locked it fast. Shortly afterward, Viona came out of the bathroom wearing the clothes Fernando gave her. Viona wore the maid outfit of hos choice.
"It looks good on you," Fernando said dryly as he tried to put on a tie and got into a little trouble.
"Let me help you, Sir," Viona offered Fernando. She quickly helped fix the tie around Fernando's neck. Because she was tall, Viona had no trouble to wrap the tie on Fernando.
"Done, Sir," said Viona softly. She took her steps back away from Fernando.
"Come out, I'll introduce my daughter," said Fernando.
Viona followed the man who was carrying his beloved expensive coat. Viona looked away when Fernando entered the password code to open the door to his room.
"Honey," Fernando said to a little girl who was about four years old.
"Daddy!!" shrieked a little girl with a ponytail.
"Zevanya," said Viona. She recognized Fernando's daughter.
When she heard somebody called her name, Zevanya let go of her arms from her father. A big smile etched on the little girl's lips when she saw the person who just called her name.
"Hey, Vionaaaa!" Zevanya shouted happily. She then ran towards Viona and was greeted with a warm hug by the girl who immediately kissed Zevanya's face, making the little girl shriek in happiness.
Fernando froze to see that Zevanya could be so close to the person she had just met.
"Do you know each other?" Asked Fernando quietly as he ate his breakfast. He felt ignored by the little who had been chatting with Viona nonstop. She looked really happy with their meeting.
"Honey, Daddy's asking," said Fernando, slightly irritated.
"Hehe, sorry, Daddy. I met Vio on the train to Daddy's office a few days ago," said Zevanya cheerfully. "Isn't that right, Viona?"
"Yes," Viona replied softly, she gently cleaned some food from around Zevanya's cheeks.
Fernando looked into Viona's eyes deeply. It made Viona feel uncomfortable. She quickly turned her gaze towards Zevanya.
"Honey!!"
A woman chirped from outside. Not long after, Viona saw a beautiful sexy woman walking into the dining room.
"Honey, why didn't you answer my call last night?" the woman grumbled at Fernando. She immediately sat on Fernando's lap without giving any care for Zevanya and Viona.
"Come on, Zeze," Viona whispered softly. She took Zevanya away from the dining room because she felt uncomfortable with what she had just seen.
Zevanya nodded excitedly. She then followed Viona's steps to the living room in front of her father and his girlfriend.
"Sit where you are," Fernando snapped. He was annoyed when he saw Viona leave.
"What's wrong with you, Honey? You look different today," said Natasya, with a probing look.
"No, I'm fine. I'm just too tired," Fernando replied nonchalantly.
"Oh, by the way, is that Zeze's new nanny?" asked Natasya curiously.
"Temporary nanny," Fernando interrupted her quickly. She didn't like Natasya called Viona a nanny.
Fernando quickly finished his breakfast then immediately caught up with his daughter who was waiting for him to go to school. He left Natasya, who was still touching up her makeup at the dining table.
"Daddy, Zeze is leaving. Bye!" Zevanya said to her father.
"Be careful at school, don't be naughty," Fernando said, kissing his cute child's forehead.
"Come on, Viona," said Zevanya excitedly to Viona, who was still standing behind Fernando.
Viona walked over to Zevanya and then got into the car without saying anything to Fernando. After Viona got into the car, they left Fernando Gray Willan's residence to go to Zevanya's school.
Fernando looked at the car that took his daughter to school. He felt something was wrong with him.
"Come on, Honey. Today you have a meeting," said Natasya quietly, moving Fernando from his reverie.
Fernando got into his car with Natasya sitting in the back seat. They discussed today's meeting material at the office.
"I didn't know that you will be my new nanny," Zevanya chirped in the car.
"I was also surprised when I saw you, Zeze," Viona said. She kissed Zevanya's cheek again. She really felt this little girl was too adorable.
"Can I sleep with you tonight?" Zevanya asked her.
"Ok," Viona answered, smiling broadly. Finally, she could have a reason to escape Fernando, the demon.
Zevanya hugged Viona tightly. Since their first meeting on the train, Zevanya liked Viona and vice versa. The driver kept smiling at their warm friendship.
Arriving they arrived at Zevanya school, the little girl cheerfully walked in. Her hand was holding Viona's fingers tightly. She didn't want to let her go. Only the school began, was Viona finally able to release her hand from Zevanya's little hand.
Viona looked at Zeze from outside the class room. Occasionally, a smile would curve up on her beautiful face. Viona had dark black eyes, typical of Asian women. Her eyelashes were very long compared to most woman. She had a real brunette hair with porcelain white skin color like a typical Japanese. If people didn't see Viona's face directly, they might think that Viona was of Chinese or Japanese descent.
Maria once thought that Viona was a mixed child between a Asian woman and a Canadian man because she saw Viona's beautiful figure was different from most Canadian girls.
"Sorry, you are not allowed to stand by the window. It will interfere with the children's learning process," said a man behind Viona.
"Oh, sorry, I didn't know," said Viona. She was surprised to know that there was such a rule.
"Who are you? I saw you here for the first time," the man inquired curiously.
"I am Zevanya's new nanny, Viona," said Viona, introducing herself by reaching out her hand to the man in front of her.
"I am Toni, the principal here," the man replied kindly as he shook Viona's hand.
Viona then chatted with the young principal. Zevanya's school was a combination of a playgroup, elementary school, secondary school and high school.
"It must be very expensive to be able to go to school here," said Viona suddenly when she saw a group of teenage girls whose age was not far from her walking before her.
"Are you still in school?" Asked Toni, the principal.
"I graduated last year," Viona replied softly. She should have continued her studies if her mother was still alive.
"Ah, Zeze is out. I'm sorry, excuse me," Viona said, changing the subject with teary eyes.
Zevanya ran towards Viona. They walked holding hands to the car that would take them home.
The headmaster looked at Viona's departure with a smile. He hoped to see Viona again.
***
Zevanya told Viona about her activities today in class while Viona was patiently listening to the girl's chatter. Occasionally, Viona would brush her messy hair with her fingers.
Because she was too tired, finally, Zevanya fell asleep in Viona's lap. Viona could not bear to wake Zevanya who was sleeping soundly.
So, even when they got home, she still let Zevanya fall asleep on her lap.
CLICK
The car door opened, and Fernando entered the car.
"How long do you guys going to sit in the parked car like this?" Asked Fernando in a whisper. He did not want to wake Zevanya.
"Sorry," Viona squeaked softly.
Fernando lifted his little girl slowly from Viona's lap. He then walked into the house, followed by Viona from behind carrying Zevanya's bag.
Viona slowly opened the door to Zevanya's room, then Fernando lulled his only child carefully on the bed.
Viona put Zevanya's bag on the desk then got ready to go out. She wanted to clean herself in the room that had been provided for the maids.
"Oh... Sir?"
Viona couldn't finish her words because Fernando had kissed her lips. She was cornered at the door of Zevanya's room and she could not escape Fernando's kiss.
"I miss you," Fernando whispered softly into Viona's ear after he let go of the kiss.
Viona broke away from the man and pushed Fernando away from her with all her might. She hurriedly got out of Zevanya's room and went to the kitchen for lunch because she had not had time to eat lunch.
Fernando smiled slyly as he saw Viona avoid him.
"You will be mine sooner or later, my white rabbit," Fernando muttered softly when he saw Viona sitting enjoying her lunch.
Viona had to survive working as a nanny for Zevanya until she was able to find her personal belongings that Fernando kept in his big house. Fernado did not tell her where he kept it, for fear that Viona would run away when she found her mother's belongings.
Actually, what Viona really wanted to find was the savings book she kept along with a pile of her mother's photo albums because all the money was kept in that savings.
"I have to find the book immediately so I can continue my life after leaving here," Viona muttered to herself.
"What book are you looking for, Viona?" Asked Zevanya curiously.
"Ah, it's nothing, beautiful girl. Let's go, we are almost late," Viona replied nervously.
"Come on," shouted Zevanya cheerfully.
Today Zevanya school was doing an excursion to the Niagara Skywheel to enjoy the view of the incredible Niagara Falls. Because Fernando was busy, it was Viona who replaced him as Zevanya's companion. Viona wore an outfit with the matching color as the clothes worn by Zevanya.
When they arrived at the park around Niagara Skywheel, Zevanya was running around cheerfully with her friends. Viona never took her eyes off the little girl. Since the place was crowded, she had to do extra supervision.
"Come on, Viona. I want to ride the Niagara Skywheel," Zevanya whined repeatedly.
"I have Acrophobia, Ze," Viona said softly. Acrophobia was the fear of height. Viona had had Acrophobia since the incident at the orphanage where she fell from the second floor and broke her leg.
"But I want to go up, Viona... huaaaa," Zevanya suddenly burst into tears.
When she heard Zevanya cry, Viona panicked. She tried to calm the little girl down so they wouldn't cry, by promising her to ride the biggest Ferris wheel in Canada.
However, on the other hand, she was worried that she would not be able to control herself when she went upstairs. Viona finally gave in to follow Zevanya's wishes. Her face turned pale when she stepped her foot at the entrance to the Ferris wheel.
"Wait," said a man who suddenly came in when the cabin door was about to close.
"Daddy!!" Zevanya shouted happily.
Apparently, Fernando went to see Zevanya. He even asked Natasya, the secretary, to represent him for a meeting. With his handsome smile, Fernando entered the Ferris wheel cabin. He chose to sit next to Zevanya while Viona sat in front of him. The three of them looked like a happy little family.
Viona tried her best to fight her fear when she was high up inside the Ferris wheel. Cold sweat running down her pale face when the Ferris wheel cabin was at it's highest peak. She tried to look away and watch at the niagara waterfall that was clearly visible from above.
Fernando felt that something strange was happening to Viona. He slowly moved the seat next to Viona. The man then held Viona's hand tightly. He was surprised when he realized that there was no resistance from Viona as usual. Normally, the girl would always refused to be touched by him.
THUD
Suddenly Viona fell down. Fernando swiftly caught the girl's body so she wouldn't hit the Ferris cabin wall. He laid Viona's body on the bench and tried to revive her, while Zevanya looked very surprised to see Viona fainted.
"What happens to Viona, Daddy?" asked Zevanya sadly.
"She is just sleepy, Dear. She is asleep and will soon wake up," Fernando replied quietly, trying to calm Zevanya, who looked like she was about to cry.
"You just continue to watch the scenery. Okay, Honey?" Fernando added softly.
Zevanya nodded excitedly. She went back to admiring the scenic beauty of the Horseshoe and American Fall (part of Niagara Falls), Niagara River, and Niagara Park.
Fernando tried to wake Viona by tapping her cheek slowly, but Viona still didn't wake up. Feeling panicked, Fernando called his bodyguard who was waiting for him below to get an ambulance and ask the staff to stop the Ferris wheel so they could get off.
After knowing that someone fainted in the Ferris wheel cabin, the staff vacated the area to immediately receive the fainted patient. Shortly thereafter, the cabin that brought Fernando, Viona and Zevanya was seen.
The staff deftly took Viona's body, which was limp. They put oxygen mask on Viona to help her breathe. Fernando was carrying Zevanya's small body. The little girl looked confused when she saw Viona being carried by an ambulance.
The ambulance drove quickly to the hospital. Behind it was Fernando's cars. Zevanya kept asking the reason why Viona was taken by an ambulance which made Fernando feel even more nervous about Viona's condition.
Fernando ran to the emergency room where Viona was getting treatment. From behind the glass window, he could see several doctors were busy putting an IV needle in Viona's arm.
Twenty minutes later, the nurses and doctors who handled Viona came out, they said it they only needed to wait for Viona to wake up. When he heard the doctor's words, Fernando took a deep breath.
His eyes staring straight at the bed, where Viona was lying, still with her eyes closed.
"Why do you push yourself if you have a phobia of height?" Asked Fernando angrily at Viona, who was already conscious.
"I don't want to make Zeze sad," Viona replied softly.
"Silly girl, you'd endanger yourself and Zeze if I wasn't there," Fernando scolded her irritably.
"I'm sorry..." Viona sobbed.
"Don't cry. It's all over now. Soon, we can go home, and tonight you will sleep in my room," Fernando said without guilt.
"What!?" shrieked Viona in shock after hearing Fernando's words.
"Zeze was waiting for you in my room to fall asleep, the maid at home contacted me," Fernando explained.
"Oh...." Viona was silent and embarrassed because she had bad thoughts on Fernando. She slowly lowered her feet to the floor, assisted by a nurse, to sit in a wheelchair. The nurse pushed her toward the car in the hospital yard.
Fernando carried Viona into the car. It immediately drove away from the hospital to Fernando's house. In the car, Viona fell asleep, leaning against the window. Because Fernando could not bear to see her sleeping so uncomfortably, he finally moved Viona's head to his lap.
When they reach home, Fernando chose not to wake Viona. He slowly the girl's body into his house, to his room. When he opened the door, Fernando saw his little daughter was asleep on his bed, hugging her favorite doll, which Viona bought a while ago.
Fernando slowly lowered Viona down on the bed.
"Clean Miss Viona's body and change her clothes. Then, prepare food for me. I want to after taking a shower," Fernando ordered the four maids who were standing in front of his room.
The maids quickly entered the master's room, shortly after the boss entered the bathroom. They washed Viona's body with a wet towel then changed her clothes to a nightgown.
"Why is the master treating Viona so well? She is just a nanny," said a young maid in a whisper.
"Shut up. Master never considered Viona as a nanny," replied another maid.
"What about Miss Natasya?" Asked the young maid curiously.
"Stop talking already. If Master heard that, he could fire us. Let's just go. Our task is finished," whispered another maid.
The maids immediately left Fernando's room after hearing the sound of the shower stop, which indicated that Fernando had finished taking a shower. Sure enough, shortly after the maids left, the bathroom door
open, and Fernando appeared in his pajamas.
Fernando smiled when he saw that Viona's clothes had been changed. He canceled his dinner and approached the bed to join his daughter and Viona, who were soundly asleep.
"We'll be like this forever, Vio. Don't make me worry anymore," Fernando said softly as he hugged Viona from behind and then closed his eyes.
