2 Chapter 2
Today is the day the devil is coming back to England, how I wish the plane he was currently in just crashed into an unknown desert where he would s pend the rest of his life.
All the maids were assembled in the front of the castle, I just woke up so I n eed to run to where they are, in order to avoid nagging from Mrs. Rowland, the head maid.
They were all preparing for the afternoon party. Mrs Rowland was busy s houting at everyone to get their work done as soon as possible. Most of the maid was directed to clean the compound without any trace of dust as if Bo bby is going to care about it.
I'm among the maid that was assigned to prepare for the afternoon party.
I was directed to clean the sitting room with five other maids. The sitting room is on the last floor of the mansion, the room is very large, making it a hard task for me for the six of us. The room consists of three huge windows, t he windows are very big that makes it possible to see the mansion gate and e verything that's happening on the last floor clearly.
I'm lost in my own trance, as I keep examining the beautiful view, suddenly something catches my attention. I saw a guy with blonde hair jogging past the mansion gate. This is the second time I saw him today. He was on a ska teboard the first time I saw him, and I must say he's very cute. Mayhe he's my type.
"Melissa!!!!!"I heard my mom shouting my name from the second floor, Ile inched a little on hearing her loud. I told the other maid tha I needed to go and see my mother before marching downstairs in annoyance.
"What did she want now, have not finished cleaning the sitting room, nott o talk of giving me another work to doʻl muttered, repeatedly as I find my way to the second floor.
"I'm here, 'I mumbled weakly as I got to where she was. She was busy talki ng with the head maid.
'ohh! You are here
"Yes. "I answered while folding my hands on my chest.
"You don't have to give me that face, I have another task for you she replie
"Not again." set
"Dont bother to clean the sitting room again, quickly take this flower o the ballroom,
"Where am I supposed to take it toʻI asked, looking at her angrily. "Come and drop it on my head, are you deaf when I mentioned the hall,'s he said, shooting me a deadly glare.
"Okay"I mutter weakly before heading to the hall, I pass through the corri dor where Parker's family picture is hugely hanging.
I found myself staring, and I smirked when my eyes caught the picture of t he guy I dislike most
I can easily recollect how he used to harass me in school and in the house . How I wish I had left for college before this devil comes.
"I dont think he's going to recognize me again "I muttered to myself while heading toward the hall.
"Over here Melissa, "Melanie shouted my name immediately I entered the ba llroom making me advert my gaze to her direction.
I walk to her, dropping the cause on a table nearby before facing her.
"Haaaaa, your face looks so pale, 'she asked while placing her hand on my neck.
"Maybe because of the stress"I murmured, I put some flowers into the use. Am about to say something when the picture of the guy I saw earlier when cleaning came to my mind.
I dont know why, I just feel like talking to him. I stay mute for some minut es before Melanie tapped me, jolting me back from my thoughts.
"What are you thinking
"No... no im just looking at the door 1 stammered focussing on the flowers 1 am arranging
"You know...
"What the hell are you discussing," Mrg Parker shouted from the front.
"what is she doing in the mansion at this time, I thought she was supposed to be having an interview on the national tv today'I muttered, to myself
"Nothing ma, 1 stammered before I started arranging the flowers in the wase, and am using the corner of my eyes to look at the her who is already walking to us.
"Adriana mark right?"she asked immediately she got to me, belore shooting Melanie a deadly glare.
"Yes, "1 answered without looking at her.
"Have your mom already told you that you are going to be in charge of de livering drinks to the visitors? "she asked arrogantly.
"Yes" like mother like son, still concentrating on the flowers and the case, 'w hy doesn't she leave me alone"I whispered silently.
"Good, just make sure you dont come to the hall with that dirty hair, and make sure you put on your best cloth, that is better than this rag you are p utting on she said before shouting at a maid and walked away.
"What the fuck"I muttered angrily.....
Bobby's pou:
I cant believe I am in England already.
My parent dont even come to pick me up at the airport, they just send their driver to come and pick me up with one of their limos.
The ride is very tedious with the driver trying to start a conversation with m e, I am just answering him with grunts thinking he will realize that I am n ot in for any chit chat and leave me alone.
"I think you are new 'I murmured, which he answered me with a nod.
I stile to myself, "I see'l mumble
We are here. The driver announced immediately that he parked the car at the front of the mansion.
I stepped down from the car.
'I breathe in.
"Your mummy is organizing a welcome party for you this afternoon the driv er said while opening the car door for me.
"Am here again"I grumbled to myself, as I got down from the car.
"You, "I pointed at the driver who was now busy chatting with a maid, carry my box to my room, "I said still facing him.
I was about to start walking into the mansion when I heard my mom shouting my name.
"Bobby!!!
I advert my eye towards her, he was walking to me and at the same time a djusting her gown.
Mom finally looks up and smiles when she sees me. It almost looks genuine She comes across the lawn to greet me, already dressed for the party in o ne of her evening gowns, her makeup done, and her hair up. 'Sweetie, yo u're homel "she gushes, leaning forward to give me an awkward hug. I roll my eyes.
"Yeah, its great, "I mumbled.
She pulls away and flashes me a happy smile.
"We're having a party for you, and lots of people are coming, so why dont you freshen up? Get a shower, change clothes? You have an hour! "With t hat she spins on her heels and walks away, leaving me to stand there, feeling empty.
The last thing I want is to have to put on a happy face for a bunch of peop le I dont know or like.
What I want most is to sleep for a week, but Mom will not be argued with sighing, I head inside to change and shower.
I quickly take a quick shower I put on a sleeveless shirt and a trouser befo re heading out
"My son is here, 'my mom said to her friends immediately as I stepped out of the mansion.
"Wow you are now a big noy , dont you remember me, my mom's friends kee p saying different things as if I knew them before.
Like I care, I dont even greet anyone I just walk to a chair and sit.
A couple of girls are gathered together and whispering, shooting admiring looks at a couple boys, including me, but l'm so tired I don't care.
Then someone catches my eye and suddenly I'm wide awake. A girl with bo uncy blonde curls walks by, wearing a sleeveless black dress that's shorter in the front than it is in the back.
She's beautiful, and I can't stop staring as she goes by, my mouth hanging open. Then I notice the tray of food in her hand, and it strikes me I know her
Melissa, the maid's daughter from my childhood.
When did she get so grown up? I'd ask her out if she wasnt a maid's daughter, and if she wasnt the girl who I used to beat.
One of the women near me seer me staring and swats my shoulder. "Don't stare, boy
You'll catch fly, she is just a maid.
