I sat at the edge of ma'am Alice's bed, Ma'am Alice was diagnosed with cancer, I lifted her eyes up quietly, I cried for a long time and the lines of tears were evident on my pretty face. All my life I have lived with ma'am Alice and I enjoyed every good thing that life has to offer even though I was an orphan who didn't have a trace of my family. Life hasn't been fair to me, I grew up with no parents, but I was lucky to have been picked by ma'am Alice who has been taking care of me all by herself even though she wasn't so rich.
Few days ago she slumped and I had to take her to the hospital. The doctor diagnosed her with cancer, I have been the one taking care of her here in the hospital. I have spent almost all the cash she has in her account and yet ma'am Alice's health hasn't even improved yet.
I heard the sound of the bed and I turned around to see ma'am Alice opening her eyes. She was trying to say something.
"You don't have to bother yourself saying anything, I'm here to help you," I said, holding her hand.
"M-m she tried to learn some words but she found it difficult to speak.
She held on to my hand tightly, struggled for some minutes and then her hand went cold. I became filled with fear, I touched the other parts of her body and they were also cold.
I touched her chest and I couldn't feel her heartbeat anymore. I quickly rushed to call the doctor.
"Doctor, can you please come check on my mom, I don't know what's happening but I think something is wrong," I said. I couldn't find the right words to use, because I was scared of the worst, I was scared of mentioning death, I didn't want to hope for the worst.
The doctor followed me to the room where ma'am Alice was. He checked on her and shook his head. His face became pale and I could see from his face that something wasn't right.
"Nurse, time of death, 7:05 pm," the doctor said to the nurse standing with him.
The moment I heard that word 'death' my eyes became blurry with tears, my whole world became shattered, I couldn't even find the voice to cry, I just stood there staring at the lifeless body of ma'am Alice as the nurses covered her body up to her face with the clothes. Tears rolled from my eyes freely. Sadness enveloped my whole being, my legs could no longer carry me, I couldn't hold up to the tears anymore so I shouted and cried out very loudly.
"Hey, miss you have to take care of yourself and stay strong," the nurse said as she placed her hand on my shoulder.
I wasn't ready to be consoled, I wished I could cry more.
"Miss Cassey, you have to see me in my office," the doctor said and left the room.
I was still crying when the nurse led me out of the room so that they could attend to my ma'am Alice's corpse.
"Here," the doctor said, handing a handkerchief to me.
I collected it from his hand and wiped the tears on my face, but the more I tried to wipe it off the more the tears flowed. I broke down in tears again.
"Miss Cassey, you have to put yourself together, so that we can help you. You have to get another member of your family," the doctor said.
I never had any other relative aside from ma'am Alice, she was the only family I have. I call her my mum because she practically took care of me, I never knew who my parents were, ma'am Alice took care of me and gave me everything that I ever needed.
"I'm sorry doctor, I'm the only relative ma'am Alice has, and I'm 18 years already so don't worry, I can sign any document," I told him.
"Okay that's fine, I will prepare the documents and have you sign them. You see ma'am Alice's health got worse when she stopped us from giving treatment to her," the doctor said.
"What! Why did she tell you to stop the treatment," I asked, so shocked to hear that.
"You see, the cancer has eaten deep into her body already, so she says she wouldn't want to keep on wasting funds, so she decided to keep the little money left for you," he explained.
I was speechless, I never expected that ma'am Alice could do that for me, she has really done a lot for me, and now she also had to risk health for me.
I thanked the doctor and left his office.
When I got to the house, I quickly checked the documents in ma'am Alice's room, I saw her account details and found out that she only had a small amount of dollars with her. Almost everything has been spent in the hospital and almost nothing was left for me to live on with. I became so sad, this is going to be really tough on me, no family, no relatives and no one to cater for my schooling. I started crying again. This time I cried so hard.
I heard a knock on the door and Karen walked into the room.
"Hey girl, there's going to be a party tonight, so you have to cheer up, ma'am Alice is gone now, and there's nothing you can do to bring her back, so let's go have some fun," Karen said, lifting me up from the bed.
Karen, my friend , has always been the party type. She likes to party and have fun. I have been crying my eyes out and the first time I smiled today since Karen came around to cheer me up.
Karen gave me one of her dresses to wear. It was a very short skirt and a crop top that left my tummy open. I have never worn this kind of dress before.
"Karen, I can't wear this," I protested.
"You have been crying for too long so I think it's time for you to go out and have some fun and unwind," Karen said.
After much pleas from her I decided to follow her to the party.
"You should wear it, that's what big girls wear, it makes one look so sexy. I told you that big boys are going to be there too, so you have to look sweet," she said teasingly.
We got to the party and a lot of people were already at the party dancing and cheering to the music. The music was so loud and deafening. Karen started dancing with the boys. I sat down on one of the seats from a glass of brandy, since I turned 18 this was my first time drinking alcohol.
My vision started to become blurry, but I was still able to see a cute guy seated drinking from his glass too. He looked damn cute.
I noticed the cute guy had his eyes on me, he was definitely the most cute guy among everyone there. I looked away when his eyes met mine.
***ACE'S POV***
Immediately this girl stepped into the party, I began to feel a rush of urge flow through my body. She looked so beautiful, but I could swear that I had never seen her before. I'm a rich and cute guy, so many girls like to florrick around me, and I don't mind getting down on their pants because my dad is one of the richest men in the city and he has a very thriving business so I always had enough cash to spend.
I was dead drunk which also put me in the mood to have a good sex. I stood up quietly to go meet the girl. She was seated with her friend but soon her friend left her to go sit with a guy. I stood up from my seat to go meet her.
"Hello, I haven't seen your face here before," I said to her.
"Yeah it's my first time coming to this kind of party," she replied calmly.
I could sense that she was naive or perhaps she was getting drunk too.
"Can I please get a place to lay my head," she asked me.
"Yes of course," I said with a mischievous smile curled up on my lips, this was an opportunity for me.
I quietly took her to one of the inner rooms in the hotel. We were both drunk but I was able to get hold of her as I led her to the room. My joystick became rock hard as though it was going to pop out of my pants.
I opened the room and laid her to the bed, she held my cock closer to her hornypot. As though we were both hungry for each other, and without much ado I slid into her already wet hornypot.
I can't remember how long I have been sleeping. Woke up from the hotel room and I couldn't find the girl. My whole body needed more of her, I have never fucked a girl this sweet and tight, it's obvious she's a virgin. I made up my mind to find her, but then who's she and how do I find her after this one night stand?
***CASSY'S POV***
I couldn't believe it. I was surprised when I woke up and found myself sleeping beside the cute guy.
"Oh my gosh, so I slept with him and I allowed him fucked me?" I uttered silently.
I never thought of losing my virginity this way, I have been keeping it for a very long time and I wish to give it to the man of my dreams. Even though I didn't wish to lose my virginity, I felt this kind of satisfaction within me, probably because I slept with the cute guy. I never thought that I could make love to him. How did it all happen? Maybe because I was drunk or maybe because I gave him the opportunity to touch me. This was actually a one-night stand. I just hope that I don't regret it all of my life.
Maybe I was carried away by his cute face. I should have been more careful. I didn't know what to do or how I was supposed to find this guy that I had slept with. My head kept saying that I had just done the wrong thing.
Well, I have to move on. I'm no longer a kid. I heard a knock from the door and then I stood up to check who it was, of course it was Karen.
"Hey Karen how are you doing," I hugged her.
"I'm good and how are you doing today?" I replied.
"I'm fine, you're supposed to be fine not after sleeping with that cute guy we saw at the party?" She retorted.
"Please don't bring back that memory to me right now. I'm trying not to beat myself up so hard about it?" I said with a sad face.
"What do you mean by that?" Karen asked.
"I never thought I was going to sleep with him. I just wish I never did," I said, wishing that Karen could drop the topic already.
"Tell me what happened, Cassey," Karen said.
"We just went to the room and then I woke up and found myself sleeping naked beside him," I explained.
"Okay, so did you get to talk to him?" Karen asked again.
"No Karen, I just woke up,wore my dress and then I left," I replied.
"Really Cassey? You mean you let the cute guy slip off your finger just like that? come on you should have talked to him, you should have gotten his contact or anything just for you to keep in touch with him," she said. Karen was a sucker for fine guys.
"I'm not interested in Karen," I said looking at her.
"Ayway, that's not why I'm here. I came here to tell you that the school we applied for has started. So you have to get yourself ready and get your things ready because we're leaving for the school as soon as possible," Karen said waving a document to my face.
I became so upset and angry at life, I don't know why I have to pass through so much trouble just to get anything I ever wanted. I have the dream to go to school in this favorite university. Miss Alice helped me apply for it, and now she's not here to continue it and worst, I don't even have the money to go on with it.
"You know what? Your name was shortlisted," Karen continued speaking.
I turned and looked away from Karen. I was so sad. A part of me was happy for the good news soon I'm going to be going to my dream University to study my Dream art it's one of the best school in the city but not the issue here is where do I get the money to sponsor myself since Maay Alice is now dead and there is no one to take care of my tuition fee.
"Why is your face like that? Isn't this what you have always wanted, you should be happy," Karen said looking concerned.
"I'm sorry Karen, but I don't think I'll be following you to the school," I said, almost becoming teary.
"Why not?" Karen asked.
"You know since ma'am Alice is dead now there is no one to sponsor me in the school," I replied.
"oh? That's too bad. I understand,but you don't have to worry because the school is giving an offer for a scholarship. So, all you need to do is write the exams for the scholarship and just be hopeful. Maybe you can even pass it and you will be given an opportunity to study in the school," Karen said.
"Really? so there's an opportunity for me.Thank you very much," I said, hugging Karen so tightly in excitement.
I was so joyful that I could actually go to my dream University even though I did not have the funds for my tuition fee. At least I will use the opportunity to get what I want since it's a scholarship. I was so happy I jumped up and down as Karen and I laughed.
After seeing Karen off. I decided to walk round the estate a bit, I have hardly stepped out since Ma'am Alice's funeral. I saw a very beautiful Mansion it was one of the most beautiful mansions in the environment. The house was so big, I guess anyone living in that house must be very rich to be able to acquire such a building.
Then I looked forward and saw an inscription that a nanny is needed. I thought for a while, this will be a good opportunity even if I'm going to be going for the scholarship at least I will still need some cash to take care of my personal needs. It's the best thing for me to do so I went to apply for the position of a Nanny. I love kids and I'm a very passionate person so it won't be very difficult for me to take care of those kids if I get employed to work as a nanny in such a mansion.
I went back home to drop the form in my hand and then decided to come back later to check what they needed the nanny for. I went back home to get dressed. I took one of my best clothes.
First I was going to apply for the scholarship to see if I was going to get it. I'm a very intelligent person and I read my books. I wrote the scholarship exams on the school website and as I was so lucky to have been shortlisted after I checked the results on the internet.
I headed to the mansion where I had seen the nanny job, I was just hoping and praying that the job hadn't been taken by someone else. I pressed the doorbell and two kids came out, they were probably the kids. They look so beautiful from the skin and clothing one could tell that they were so rich.
"Hey little kids. how are you doing?" I asked them, smiling.
"We are fine, thank you. what would you want us to do for you?"they asked.
They were so lovely and they looked so cute.
"I'm sorry to bother you, I saw the notice that a nanny is needed, so I'm applying for the position," I replied.
"You want to work here as a nanny?" One of the kids asked me.
"Yes, if it's okay with you," I said smiling.
"Sure, we actually do. My mum is looking for a lot for us," one of the twins said.
"You seem nice, and we like you already. I will go in and tell my mum about you," they said.
"Okay, thanks, I'm Cassey. what are your names," I replied.
"My name is Bella and she's Belle," One of the twins replied.
"Such beautiful names you got there," I replied with a smiling face.
They were smart kids and I was already in love with them. I just wish I could get the opportunity to work as their nanny. Only if their parents will allow me.
"let me go in and call....?" Bella tried to speak but we heard a voice.
"Hey what is happening there, and who are you speaking with over there?' I heard a voice. The voice sounded familiar but I couldn't place where I have had such a voice before.
"Hey big bro, we are talking to a lady who wants to work as a nanny," Belle replied.
"Who is that?" the voice repeated.
When hecome out I stood transfixed, looking at this face. This was the same guy that I slept with the other night at the party. The cute guy I met at the party. I couldn't find words to express how I felt. I was so angry at the same time I was happy that I had met him again so I could at least explain to him. I know he was going to ask me about what happened that night and then I'm not even ready to speak about that, I hated myself for giving out my virginity to a total stranger and here he is, and worst still, I plan working here. What am I going to do? He looked into my face and I guess he also recognised me.
***ACE'S POV***
I came out to check who the kids were speaking with, and then I was surprised to see the same strange girl that I slept with the other night. I didn't even know how to feel. I just stood looking at her face. I guess she must have also been surprised to see me. What the heck is she doing here ? I hope she hasn't come here to say something about what happened the other night. I enjoyed every bit of the sex and enjoyed every bit of her body.
I wanted more of her but she was gone before I woke up, and then like a miracle she's standing here at my gate. Ever since I slept with her I had this rush of urge over me and I have also wanted to reach out to her and here she is standing at my gate and speaking to my sisters
"What could she be doing here?" I kept asking myself. She is the last person I ever expected to see in my life or my house.
"Hey, who are you?" I asked her, trying so hard to pretend as if I didn't know who she was.
She looked at me, she couldn't open her mouth to say something to me, she just stood there staring at me. I guess she was trying to grab everything around her head.
"Hello my name is Cassey, and I came here to apply to be a nanny. I saw that a nanny is needed here, that's why I'm here," she said, pointing at the notice.
I was glad she didn't come here because of what happened that night and it was one of my ways of sleeping around because I am one of the cutest guys in the city, any girl will do anything just to be on my bed. I was happy that she hasn't come here to bother my life because once I fuck any girl, I move on and I careless about their emotions.
"Okay good. You can come in, let me take you to go see my mum," I said to her.
"Okay, thank you," she replied, following behind me.
I don't know if I was doing the right thing, maybe I should have just put her off, maybe I should have just told her to go. Perhaps tell her that the position is taken. I wonder how I'm going to feel with this girl working under my roof all day and everyday. I wasn't so sure if I was going to cope with her being around here but then I still found myself leading her to the mansion just for her to get the job to be a nanny to my siblings Bella and Belle.
"Hey mum, someone is here to take over the job of the Nanny," I said to my mum as sat in the living room of the mansion.
"Okay, let her come in," my mum replied.
***CASSEY'S POV***
I was happy when he let me into the mansion. I never expected that he was going to help me out. I thought he was going to tell me to leave, but then he acted like he didn't even know what happened or if he couldn't remember me. Probably he couldn't really remember because we were really drunk that night, or perhaps he was just acting up.
How could I have even slept with him? I just hope this doesn't not affect my chances of working here because already I was in love with these little kids Bella and I wish to establish a working relationship with them and also get money to sort my bills out.
I walked into the mansion, it was a very huge house. The living room was beautifully decorated with beautiful flowers and expensive chairs and designer couches. The types seen in five-star hotels or even on television. I guess these people must be freaking rich. Everything that they had looked very beautiful,a big beautiful house, a very large sitting room, everything there looked so expensive and spelled the word 'wealthy.'
I saw a very beautiful woman sitting down in the living room, I heard her voice calling out to her daughters, the twins both chorused "yes mum." Immediately, I could tell she is their mum, and perhaps the strange guy's mum too.
I greeted her. "Hello ma'am, good day," I said to her.
"Hello, how may I help you?" she answered, lifting her face.
"My name is Cassey Alexandra. I am here to apply as a nanny, I saw the notice outside the house," I spoke calmly, choosing my words carefully.
"Oh yes that is good, I wanted a nanny but are you sure you can work here?" She asked.
"Yes ma'am have the ability to work," I replied.
"Have you ever worked as a nanny for anyone before now?" She asked.
"No ma'am. I haven't, this will be my first time working as a nanny but I wouldn't mind to take this opportunity as I would do everything that you want me and then I will take care of your kids properly," I responded hastily, I didn't want to be turned down as this job is my only resort.
"That's okay. I am Mrs Sophia and I am the owner of this house. Those twins are my kids Bella and Belle and that person who brought you in, is their older brother. So tell me why would you want to work as a nanny?" she asked.
I looked at her and I didn't know want to answer her I don't know if I should just tell her everything that has been happening but the main reason why I wanted to work as a nanny I needed the money to sort myself out since I'm now responsible for myself university even though I have gotten the scholarship I will still need some extra cash to sort other things out.
"Ma'am, I'll be needing the money to sort out some bills. I already got admission into the university.
"What about your parents?" she asked.
I bowed my head, tears were about to flow from my eyes, but I tried to hold myself. If I need to work here I need to be strong and not show my weakness.
"I'm sorry ma'am, I don't know anything about my parents. I haven't been with them all my life," I said.
She looked at me with surprise written all over her face. She must have been wondering why I don't know where my parents are.
"I don't know anything about them. I was trained by my aunt. Her name is Miss Alice. She passed away a few days back. She died of cancer," I added.
"That's so sad," She said with pity in her eyes.
"That's okay ma'am. I've gone past my pasts. Right now I'm happy to pick the pieces of my life again," I replied calmly.
"That's okay. You must have passed through a lot,you're welcome to work here, you just have to promise me that you're going to be a good girl while working here," Mrs Sophia said.
"Sure ma'am. I am not going to disappoint you, thank you," I said with excitement.
"You can come back tomorrow to start, that's if you don't mind," she said.
"No ma'am I don't mind at all," I replied with excitement.
I took my little handbag and walked out. I was so happy I wanted to jump. Working for these rich people is going to be the best thing that ever happened to me. At least I'll be able to have a good roof over my head, good accommodation, and I will be able to eat good meals, and even get the opportunity to take care of those little beautiful twins. This job meant a lot to me and I already promised in my heart to give it my best. Mrs Emily seems like a nice lady.
"Hey, are you working here already?" Bella asked me.
"No dearest, but soon I will start working here. I want to go home to get my things but I promise to come back later tomorrow to start taking care of you girls okay," I told them happily.
I was filled with so much joy, I ran out of the mansion and went back to my house to get my things ready to come back. As I was going out I met the strange guy, his mum told me he's Ace when she was introducing the twins to me a while ago. I saw him outside and our eyes met, he looked at me and immediately I quickly stopped looking at him.
I was just hoping he doesn't make things difficult for me here. I know that I have slept with him. I wonder if you could remember everything that happened that night. I just hope and I hope that he doesn't make my stay in this place a tough one.
