My boss and me

hapter 1

In a village located in Nigeria, there lived a young girl with dark skin!! very beautiful of figure with prowlers of mature women

This girl, who was full of life, saw her life change the day she was told that her father had been hit by a vehicle on his way back from the city!

It was from that day on that everything changed!

She no longer went to school.

Her life and that of her mother had completely changed, she was the only child that her parents had been able to have, which meant that she had no sister or brother!

At the beginning their father was someone who had succeeded in his life compared to his brothers and sisters, so they had a very stable life!

His brothers and sisters, seeing their brother die, took the opportunity to take everything that belonged to him

to take everything that belonged to him, the fruit of his hard work!

But Rosie, his wife, still managed to intervene so that their property (plot of land, house, etc.) would not be taken away from them, despite the pain she felt

She was so sad, and suffered a little more each day of the absence of her husband!

She did not realize that she was sinking into darkness!

She continued to suffer internally until the day she gave up the ghost leaving her daughter alone in the world!

Yes, she was already a big girl of 14 years old, but she still needed her parents by her side!

The uncles and aunts seeing Rosie die also did not hesitate to put the little one outside!

one day after the death of her mother !

She begged them to give her at least an ultimatum to find a place to live but insensitive as they were they would not listen !

she was forced to spend the night outside, in front of her FATHER's plot of land because she had nowhere to go

the next day her paternal uncle (her father's older brother) moved into her father's house, with his wife and children;

Seeing them, she started to beg them once again, crying!

<

So much that she had begged too much, her aunt got fed up and told her:

<

<< yes!!! I will do anything you want!">>

<< okay! you will live here on one condition>>

!

she looked at him with a sly smile

<< That you be my servant, my maid, my towel where I'll wipe my feet!! so??>>

a tear beaded her cheek, but she wiped it away immediately, so as not to show her weakness too much

<< d'ac... cord>>

<>

so she went inside and was heading to her room when:

<>

<< uh in..my room>>

<< whose room? you don't have a room here anymore, have you ever seen a maid with a room as nice as this one? no have you? so since there is no room that really fits you here, you'll have to sleep in the kitchen!

Go and put your things in the corner of the kitchen over there!

she felt her tears rising but she held them back

<< okay! she said simply

she turned on her heels as her aunt said again:

<>

<>.

<>

she spilled everything on the floor, and she began to sort out the most beautiful clothes in the suitcase

which intrigued Tanya.

when she finished she left three worn clothes on the floor (a pair of pants, a dress and a blouse) and she took the suitcase

<

<< Auntie Sophie why? Why are you doing this to your own niece? You so easily forget all that my mother has done for you, and your children? she put your children through school, she took such good care of them as if she was the one who brought them into the world, and look how you thank her, you....

pfffffffffffff she puts a hot slap on her face that makes her fall in one go!

<< IDIOT!!! THE NEXT TIME YOU TALK TO ME LIKE THAT YOU'LL BE ON THE STREET!

WHERE ARE WE NOW? I'LL TAKE YOU IN, I'LL PUT YOU UP OUT OF PITY AND YOU DARE TO SAY THAT TO ME? I DON'T CARE IF THIS HOUSE BELONGS TO YOUR FATHER OR EVEN TO YOUR ANCESTORS, BUT THEY ARE DEAD NOW, YOU UNDERSTAND? M.O.R.T! SO I'M THE MISTRESS OF THE HOUSE AND DON'T FORGET THAT YOU'RE JUST A SERVANT IN THIS HOUSE OK? NOW GO MAKE DINNER AND GET IT DONE!!!

she goes away leaving her on the ground in tears, her hand on her cheek! The marks of her slap on her cheek!

She got up with a thousand difficulties, picked up her three clothes and she left in the kitchen !!!

This was the beginning of the ordeal that lasted almost 7 years!

yes 7 good years of pure suffering and abuse !

She could not continue her studies but nevertheless she knew how to read and write which was already a step !

she had practically become the servant of the house! everyone ordered her around! everyone could give her orders and she couldn't say anything at the risk of finding herself on the street with nothing!

even if she sometimes defended herself, but the punishment was very severe!

Her aunt did not allow her to do any activity that would allow her to find some money, and if by misfortune she found some money in her bag even if it was only 10 naira, she beat her without mercy by calling her a thieving witch!

The children of the aunt (Amaka and Stephanie) studied normally and lived a life of true princes in the village while Tanya lived a life of suffering! and all this thanks to their father who managed to appropriate all the property of the father of Tanya, and who managed them

One day while she had just finished the evening dishes her aunt called her

<< UDJU???? >>

<< AUNTIE???>>

she used to call her only by her name, and never by her first name

She ran quickly to the living room to answer her aunt's call! She found her in front of the TV sipping a juice!

<< Auntie (lowering a knee)>>

<>

<>

<< tomorrow we are going to have visitors here!!! i bought the food it's in the kitchen and you will have to prepare everything as you know!!!

so make sure everything is perfect, I don't want any mistakes or else... um you know yourself!!>>

She felt so tired because of all the work she had to do during the day! but as she couldn't contradict her aunt's orders she just said:

<>

<< okay, you can go.

she returned to the kitchen, and went straight to work!

Her uncle usually was never around!!! because he was too busy with work!!!

It was so strange that he could get off so easily after what he had done but hey, don't they say karma exists!

she was in the middle of her work when she felt a hand around her waist!! on the spot she was startled and turned around to meet the eyes of amaka her cousin who was looking at her with a perverse smile!!

<< beauty are you ok?>>

<< amaka!! what are you doing here?>>

<< This is my father's house, remember?

<< yes that's right! anyway>>

she refocused on her work and didn't look at him anymore when he approached her again and tried to caress her, which made her directly angry and she pushed him away

<< no but that's not right? you want to do that to me? you even know me? eh ah!! only dare you to see, I'll make you impotent!!! >>

<< what?? you dare to insult me? >>

<< I'm not insulting you but if you want to become impotent dare to try to do what you have in mind right now, idiot go!!>>

he was so red with anger that he wanted to raise his hand on her when he heard his aunt's voice coming from the living room

<< amaka? are you okay there? you've been hanging around>>

<< uh uh yes mom I'm coming

then he looks at her, and points at her>>

<< I'm not done with you! >>'

he goes out and at the same time his sister Stephanie enters dressed vulgarly

<< bring me up a glass of juice in my room right now!!!

<< you have two hands as far as I know!!>>

<< Excuse me ????? repeat a little what you just said!" she said coming dangerously close to her

<< I'll take it to you later! >>

<< it's better for you silly room!!!>>

She then goes back up to her room all proud and haughty!!!

she knew that if she said anything to him she would go and accuse his aunt and she would be the one to empathize

after having given her her juice

She goes about her business almost all night long !

there were so many things to do

she fell asleep at about 2 o'clock all tired, and already at 5 o'clock she was up to finish everything!

During all the day she was in the oven and in the mill not even knowing who would come!

It was only around 4pm that she finished and her aunt took her to the bathroom to take a nice bath, then she fixed her long hair and put it in a bun

she was intrigued, she didn't understand why all this sudden attention but she preferred to let her do it !

when she was done she said to her:

<< hold on tight Odju, behave yourself! you understand>>

<< yes>>

<< well >>

at the same time her husband entered:

<< let's go they are already here!

so they all come down together!

and when they arrived at the living room Tanya's eyes met those of the visitors there were just two old men!! who could be 70 years old and more!

the aunt spoke up

<< chief there she is!!! My daughter is going to sit you next to your husband!!! >>

the shock!!!! she thought she heard wrong!!!

<< sorry n '??? my who????>>

the aunt gave her a more than black look!!!

<< you are beautiful as I like them, come close to me my darling!!>>

<< eh eh eh eh stop it right now!!! so if I understand correctly you the old man here you want to marry me?! eh ah!!!! auntie how can you be mean like that! Ah!

Can you do that to your niece?

look at yourself how disgusting they are!! certainly they have money in this village but look at them!! you can let Stephanie marry an old man like that?

she spoke under the shocked looks of all!

~~~on the other side, LAGOS~~~

we see a young man, a little muscular, with a chocolate complexion, with a beauty to make fall! which leaves a villa and goes to his company in a car of mark!

When he arrives at his company (a large building that gives vertigo just by looking at it) he enters followed by his two bodyguards in charge of accompanying him to his office which is also his "personal space" where only his guards, his assistant, and his relatives could enter

everyone greets him, and he answers them just by raising his hand

he goes up to his office (which by the way, smells like luxury) as soon as he is seated he calls out

<< in my office right now!

without giving him time to answer he hangs up >>.

JASON 25 years old, a young handsome and rich billionaire, the crush of all the girls but also a "play boy".

Chapter 2

~~~LAGOS~~~

*in Jason's office*

knock knock

<< enter >>

he enters, it's his personal assistant

<< take a seat and tell me directly where we are with Mr. idje's contract >>

<< uh.. I spoke with him yesterday and.. he says he will have to travel there soon which makes the meeting have to be today>>

he slams his hand on the table!

<< shit!!! this guy is already taking on too much shit!!!>>

he thinks for a moment

<< get everything ready for the meeting!!! >>

<< okay sir!!! >>

<< you may leave!!>>

he gets up and leaves!

then Jason gets to work!!!

during the whole day before noon he did nothing but work!!!

at about 12:00 his assistant comes to knock on his desk

<< sir it's time >>

<< are they already here?>>

<< No sir!

<< I see this gentleman is really playing with my nerves!!! Anyway I'll be there in less than a minute>>

<< okay sir>> then he exits

After a few minutes Jason also enters the meeting room, takes his seat then waits!!!

This mister idjé is a rich businessman who wanted to sign a contract with Jason so that he could produce several pieces of furniture for him (since his company was a furniture manufacturing and selling company)

and they were supposed to sign the contract today!! but until 12:35 he was still not there which started to annoy Jason who became impatient.

At 1pm he arrived with all his team, wearing a big boubou and a red hat like the one of the old people (in Nigerian movies)

Jason was angry and looked at him without saying anything while trying to keep his cool.

then without embarrassment he says:

<< well I'm here, we can start the meeting!!>>

which made JASON even more angry,!! but he remained calm with his wrist on his chin and his feet crossed!!!

his assistant looked at him to get his agreement

he gave him a sign of approval

so the meeting started, his assistant started to explain everything

Before he had finished explaining, Mr. Idje got up in anger and said:

<< BUT THIS IS ABSURD!!! YOU ARE NOT CONVINCING AT ALL! YOU HAVE WASTED MY TIME! CANCEL THE CONTRACT I CAN'T WASTE MY MONEY IN SUCH BANALITIES!!!

Jason calmly gets up from his chair and walks slowly with his beautiful gait until he stands in front of him!

there are only 2 centimeters separating them!

He puts his hands in his pocket before speaking with his hoarse voice:

<< mister idje!! know one thing, if you have money and well I have gold!

Your company compared to mine is only a small sand castle!! in front of me you are only a rat that makes too much noise and that I can reduce to pulp just by a foot gesture!

if you are not satisfied with the work, then get out! i don't need to beg for your crumbs because as you can see i am a young billionaire, handsome and attractive! so before i call security, get out of "my company" you and your team and let's blow it up!

He said it in such a calm tone, looking him straight in the eyes with a calm look, that it scared the billionaire idjé;

but it also made him angry, furious he said while pointing his finger at him:

<< you!!!!... you will pay me this affront >>

then he goes out leaving him standing there under the amazed eyes of all, and the admiring eyes of all the women!

without further ado he enters his office, tidies up his things, gets out and takes his car towards home;

Chapter 3

~~~LAGOS~~~

It's 7pm when Jason opens his eyes, and the first thing he feels is the strong headache he has;

Without looking left or right, he gets out of bed holding his head in his hands

He heads straight for the place where he puts his medication!

He takes some in one go to calm his headache, then he says to himself:

<< but I hadn't been drinking, why do I have these head words, and besides what happened! Oorr now that I remember! I had a drink with ..>>

He had not finished speaking when his eyes cross the bed, where Sophia is comfortably lying sleeping

He opens his eyes wide

<< no but this bitch is doing what in my bed!

He goes towards her all furious and tears the sheet off her

<< He goes to her in a rage and rips the sheet away from her, "Wake up and get out of my room, bitch!

She answers with a weak voice, and a small smile

<< good evening my love tell me why are you shouting like that? Come and rest you must be tired after what just happened! And then we did not sleep enough, please come to bed (baying) I am still sleepy!

He puts his hands in his pocket:

<< you have 5 good little minutes to be out of my plot, or else... you know very well what I could do to you !>>

He leans against the wall

Hearing these words she got scared, she put on her little dress with haste, took her shoes in her hands and ran out because she really knows what he is capable of !

<< pff first class idiot >>

He enters the bathroom and takes his bath before going to bed

~~~on the other side~~~

Tanya ran for almost an hour without stopping ;

At a certain level when she realized that she was almost at the station she started to walk slowly all tired and out of breath with a heart beating as if it was going to leave her chest

Arrived at the station and threw herself on the bench like a bag of flour

Everyone looks at her with a puzzled look wondering who she is and why she behaves like that but nobody asks her!

As the night had already fallen she chose to rest and she will be able to take the road tomorrow

So she fell asleep at the station

Very early in the morning everyone was up, the bus to Lagos was already leaving when she ran to get on it

Fortunately she got in on time! She found a place and sat down

The bus started to drive, it drove for several hours and then at a moment the one who was in charge of taking all the tickets started to take them

Arrived at her level

She was sleeping, he woke her up, she was startled

<< your ticket, he said>>

<< He said, "I'm not going to be able to get my ticket.

<< I demand your ticket! Where is it?

Quiet!!!

<< miss don't waste my time, I'm asking where is your ticket!!!

<< uh it's... it's... I don't have one.>> She replied with her head down

<

<< No, no! I swear I'm not a thief!

<< okay. DRIVER STOP THE BUS RIGHT NOW, SHE'S GONNA PAY MY MONEY I'M NOT KIDDING>>

<< Please don't do this! You can't just leave me in the middle of the forest like this please! Please help me >>.

<< you cheated your way onto this bus!!! And that is unacceptable

You're gonna pay me my money or I'm gonna hurt you>>

The passengers continued to watch the scene without saying anything

Then at one point he started to bully her by making her leave the bus

<< you little idiot! We know girls like you, you're only here to do this! Get out! Get out! >>He said as he pulled her by her clothes

He was about to push her out when :

<< it's okay I'll pay her ticket, let her go!!!>> Retorted a voice behind

Everyone turns to look at him

It's a young man sitting in the back, light skinned, rather handsome! Dressed in a jogging suit, he looked like he was not from the village

<< ok you have to pay me then eh! I don't have all day>>

The young man takes out his wallet and he takes out some banknotes that he hands to him

The receiver goes towards him to take the money

He hands it to him

Tanya runs to the young man to say thank you,

<< thank you thank you very much sir!!! Thank you thank you >>, she says in tears

<< it's okay, it's okay! No need to thank me, it is normal to help each other

So sit down and wait calmly for the bus to arrive in Lagos>> ;

<< thank you very much>>

So she sat down

A few hours later the bus arrived at its destination

She thanked him again, then he asked her the famous question

<< uh you live where, if I may ask you this question>>

She felt embarrassed not knowing what to answer because she didn't even know where she was going

<< She felt embarrassed and didn't know what to say because she didn't even know where she was going.

He thought maybe he was too curious and that's what was bothering her

<< sorry, did I embarrass you?>>

She nods her head in approval

<>

She missed what to say, she just accepted even if she didn't know where they will go

In the car

<< oh sorry, I didn't introduce myself, I'm Ahmed and you?>>

<< Tanya >> she said, lowering her head

<< nice name!!>> He said with a smile

<< thank you >>

They were silent during the whole trip

She pretended to address him at home and then arrived in front of a plot she said:

<< this is it ,thank you very much for dropping me off>>

<< please have a nice day>>

She smiles and gets out of the car

She waits for her car to drive away to think about what she will do

In the meantime her stomach is already rumbling and she has no money to pay for food

After thinking about it, she decides to enter the plot where Ahmed had dropped her off.

When she enters she finds a woman sitting in front of the house sorting beans!

She walks towards her, and greets her by lowering a knee

<< hello mom>>

She raises her head and stares at her from head to toe then she says

<< yes, who are you?>>

<< sorry please I need the job please I can do anything, the main thing is that I can survive please, I come from far away I have nowhere to go>>

As an answer she laughs!

<< well we don't offer work here unfortunately, and also here is not a place for refugees; Go look elsewhere>>

Disappointed and seeing that the lady wouldn't change her mind she goes out

It must have been already 2 pm and the sun was so hot that it could blacken someone

Under this same sun Tanya was walking, dressed just in her faded dress, her slippers worn out by the walk, her small parcel where she had stored her clothes on the shoulder, sweating profusely, and the dust everywhere on her feet

She was already so tired, that she was just walking with slow steps!

It was at least 4 plots where she had entered to look for a job but nobody wanted to hire her because of her appearance and the misery she gave off

Nevertheless, this did not discourage her, she continued to walk hoping to find help

Night was already falling, and she had nowhere to sleep

She continued to walk anyway with hunger eating away at her stomach

<< uh Tanya who even sent you here; you should have stayed in the village at least there you didn't lack a place to sleep or food

Even if sometimes your aunt deprived you but still you ate

Now here you are in this city where you don't know anyone!

You have nothing and worse it's night and you still haven't found a place to sleep, oh God! >>

She was monologuing while walking, and as she went along she realized that she was in a neighborhood where everything was beautiful (houses, roads, etc..) it was quiet and luxurious

<< where am I still like this! Lord, please protect me!

Tired she lay down at the corner

Of the fence of a fence and fell asleep!!!

The next day

It is the guard who wakes her up

<< miss? Miss, >>he says as he moves her

She wakes up and stretches

<< hmm?>

<< have you been here all night? Who are you?

<< I... I...

<< Anyway, you have to leave.

The boss could walk out at any moment, so he mustn't find you here!>>

<< The boss, you say? Who is he? >>

<< you'll have to leave...

She stands up and starts to beg him

<< please please let me talk to him just once please! I need to talk to him >>

<< no ma'am I can't...

She looks at the gate and sees that it is open

She catches her breath and runs into the yard, the guard is chasing her! Before she got to the gate she bumped into someone and fell down

The person was so slender that she couldn't see his face very well

<< who are you? >>

He said in a hoarse voice

She gets up and looks him in the eyes! As soon as she looks into his eyes her heart starts beating fast, his face is so beautiful that she doesn't stop contemplating him;

He also did not stop looking at her, she had such a smooth skin in spite of her dirtiness, big clear eyes, long hair in disorder

But her beauty was just inexplicable

<< boss I tried to stop her but she ran all the way inside, she's really wild!">> Said the guard breathlessly

They both startled

Then he asks her again

<< who are you?>>
