Your help

Natasha kept on looking at her phone as she sighed, she was thinking, but then she finally decided to stop thinking as she dialed and number and she put her phone to her ear as she waited for the person to pick her call.

…

Amalia groaned as she heard her phone ring loudly, it was too early for someone to be calling her, it was still dark outside.

Amalia reached out to grab her phone off her bedside table and she answered the call half awake as she did not even wait to check who was calling her.

"Hello" said Amalia as she put her phone to her ear, she really hoped that it was not Lexi calling her this early, or else she would give her a piece of her mind for disturbing her sleep.

"Hello Amalia" said Natasha as she smiled and Amalia's eyes shot wide awake as she sat up straight in bed when she heard Natasha's voice.

"Madam??" asked Amalia in surprise and confusion as she was not sure if she was hearing well or not, or maybe she was still dreaming.

"Yes it's me" said Natasha as Amalia blinked her eyes in surprise as she checked her phone, she did not have Natasha's number saved on her phone, no wonder she was so surprised.

"Oh Madam… good morning… do you need anything?" asked Amalia as she rubbed her eyes, she was very much awake now, she wondered why Natasha was calling her.

"Good morning Amalia" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Did I disturb you?" asked Natasha as she could hear that Amalia sounded very tired, she should have waited to call her, it was very early over there after all.

"Ahh no Madam, not at all… I was sleeping yes, but I am awake now" said Amalia as she shook her head.

"Oh alright then" said Natasha.

"Yes Madam, so is there anything that I can do for you?" asked Amalia as she yawned and she moved her phone away from herself as she did so.

"Actually yes… I need you to do something for me" said Natasha.

"Alright Madam, say it, and I will do whatever you ask" said Amalia as Natasha smiled, she knew that she had called the right person.

"I need your help Amalia" said Natasha.

"With what Madam?" asked Amalia in surprise, she did not know what Natasha would possibly need her help with, she was sure that there were many other better people who could help Natasha and not her.

"Well I went on a trip, and I won't be back until a few weeks" said Natasha.

"Ohh I see" said Amalia as now that explained why she had not seen the Madam at all for the past few days, Amalia just thought that maybe Natasha was busy, after all, in that big house of theirs, it was normal not to see people for days, and besides Amalia had been on full kitchen duty, so she had not gone into the main house.

"Yes" said Natasha.

"And well, I called you because I need you to help me take care of Joy" said Natasha.

"Okay??" said Amalia as she was still confused, she did not know why Natasha would ask her to take care of Joy of her.

Natasha had been thinking, and well she had to agree with Dom, he had work, he had the company to run, so of course he could not be with Joy 24/7, and well Alfred was getting old, he could no longer keep up with all of Joy's energy, and Natasha did not want to have to hire a nanny because Joy did not like strangers, Natasha noticed that her baby was very particular with people around her, and she disliked it when she was forced to be with someone new, so Natasha only had one person in mind who could take care of Joy and that was Amalia.

"You see, my baby is still so little, and she doesn't like it when I have to go away, and her Father can't be with her all the time since he has work, and well Alfred can't run around with her since he's not as young as he used to be" said Natasha.

"So the only other person that I can trust to look after Joy is you" said Natasha as that was the truth, she trusted Amalia, out of every other staff in their house, she knew Amalia to be a very good person.

"Oh…" said Amalia in surprise.

"I am very flattered that you trust me so much Madam" said Amalia as she could not help but smile.

"Of course, I trust you" said Natasha as she smiled.

"So can you do it for me?" asked Natasha with a smile.

"Of course Madam, I can" said Amalia as she smiled, for the next five weeks, she would be on kitchen duty, which was not so hard, because once she made breakfast, lunch and dinner; cleaned the kitchen and all, she would be free for the rest of the day, and sometimes Alfred would allow her be free and not have to make dinner.

"You can count on me" said Amalia as she smiled, she knew that the Madam was a good woman, and she was someone that Amalia would freely do anything for, she was very kind.

"Thank you Amalia, thank you so much, I knew that I could count on you" said Natasha as she smiled, she knew that Amalia was the best choice, her baby liked her before anyway, and she would not feel uncomfortable with her.

"It is my pleasure Madam" said Amalia as she smiled and Natasha smiled.

"Thank you" said Natasha.

"Anytime Madam" said Amalia as she smiled.

"So is there anything particular that I need to know? Or do you just want me to make sure that Joy is alright?" asked Amalia.

"Ahh yes, well I just need you to make sure that Joy brushes her teeth in the mornings and at night, and that she eats well" said Natasha.

"Alright Madam, I got it" said Amalia as she smiled and she nodded her head, she was happy to look after Joy, she was not a troublesome child at all, she was very cute, and sweet, and she was just an angel, Amalia knew that it would be very easy to look after Joy.

"My baby can already bathe herself, and she likes choosing what to wear on her own" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Alright Madam" said Amalia.

"Yes, there should be no problem from Mondays to Fridays since she goes to school and she wears her uniform, oh and she must always go to bed by 8pm, or else she won't wake up early the next day" said Natasha.

"Alright Madam, is there anything else?" asked Amalia as she smiled.

"No, that's about it" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Okay Madam" said Amalia as she smiled.

"Thank you for agreeing to do this once again Amalia" said Natasha as she smiled, she really appreciated Amalia, she really did.

"It's no problem Madam, Joy is an angel, I am happy to help" said Amalia as Natasha laughed.

"Yes, she is an angel" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Madam, if I may ask, when will you be coming back?" asked Amalia out of curiosity.

"Soon, very soon, I just have some business to take care of out of town, and so, I have to leave for a few months… unfortunately" said Natasha as she gave a sad smile.

"Ahh I see Madam, well I hope that everything goes smoothly" said Amalia as she smiled.

"I hope that they will as well, Thank you" said Natasha as she smiled and Amalia smiled.

"Well let me not disturb you anymore, I know that it is early over there" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Alright Madam, thank you for trusting me, and have a good day" said Amalia as she smiled.

"Have a good day as well Amalia" said Natasha as she smiled and she ended the call, well that settled that, now at least she did not have to be worried about Joy, she knew that she was in safe hands as long as Amalia was watching over her.

Natasha sighed as she walked to her laptop bag, just because she was over here in Russia did not mean that she would just leave everything she was doing back home just like that, she had some emails to check, her business currently had a big project that was ongoing, and it was not like she did not trust Chloe to handle it, no not at all, she trusted Chloe so much, butt she just did not want Chloe to feel overwhelmed, she was sure that Chloe had her own problems as well, so she would just help out a bit, and do the little that she could do from over here.

Natasha put her laptop on her lap as she sat comfortably in the bed and she switched on her laptop as she smiled, she felt better now, she could not wait for all this to pass away so she could see her baby once again, she would be so happy once she got back home, but for now… she had to focus on what she was going to do over here to get what she wanted.
