Pain in the Ass.

The food I was preparing was ready and I served Maurice hers and made sure she sat to eat before I went back into the kitchen to get the tray consisting of Alex's food and drinks.

The problem was I didn't know where his room was.

"Uhm... Grandma, where's Alex's room? I need to take his food to him." Since Maurice is much nicer, I asked her politely for Alex's room and she gave me directions.

"Take the stairs up and walk past the first three rooms on the right. The fourth on the left, is his. You'll notice it. Its simple." She winks.

Its simple?

I shrug and walk up the stairs very carefully with the tray of food in my hands.

Using the directions as I was directed, I certainly notice why Maurice said it is simple.

Out of all the rooms with gold studded knockers and doors made out of some precious gem that I don't know, Alex's door is simply made out of wood.

But it has a studded knocker too.

I got there and knocked slowly but I could barely hear my self knocking so I transferred the food to one hand and raised the other so as to knock harder but the door suddenly opened.

For one second, I was scared the food will fall out of my hands but thankfully, I stabled it just in time.

"I-i brought your meal as you asked" I said pushing the tray towards him, he looked back and forth between his food and I and he laughed.

Not an exactly nice laugh. I'm not disappointed either way as he already gave me mean guy vibes from first meeting.

"You're actually giving me the food in my hands?" He said as a matter of question and I nod slowly, unsure.

"Yeah, you're totally nothing like Lisa" He comments

And so what? That's even a compliment. Means I'm me, no?

I wanted to speak out loud, but I need to be "the good girl" here so I won't get fired by one of my bosses.

"Go drop it on my desk" he orders and steps aside for me to pass. I walked inside his room, his room wasn't so bad like him, it was normal, like any grown up rich person room would be. I drop the food on the bed and walked out. But he called me back..

"Halo".

What now?

"Hm?" I replied and turned quickly and my hair swished behind me

"I said drop the food on my desk, not my bed. Are you that dumb that you can't remember such a simple instruction? How will you work here if you're that dense?" He said and I gasped inwardly.

Was what I did that bad?

I just forgot an instruction.

Sarcastic, "Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry" I said and quickly went inside his room and grabbed the tray and placed it on his desk.

I just dislike him more and more every single encounter. He simply just arrived and has made my life hell.

Anyway, I must not ruin my job here and get fired.

"I'm sorry" I said as I walked out of the room and meet him in front of his door.

"Yeah, you should be. Now leave, I'd like to be alone now" he said and I nod and turned to leave but he called my name

"Halo"

Not again. What did I do wrong now?

"Hm?" I turned and faked a smile

He pauses. "It's nothing. You can go" he said and I sighed, so he just called me back for nothing.

As I walked away I hear him say my name faintly, but it was like he was saying it to himself.

What a weirdo.

I went back to the living room and sat down on a single chair and just stare at the blank TV.

Maurice had already gone to bed like is her routine.

And I just can't turn on the TV since its not my house and I don't want to end up destroying anything.

Young Master upstairs is already a pain in the ass.

I started to twirl my hair since I'm bored and I have nothing to do. And I'm terribly hungry.

Just then (Sarcasm) Young Master came downstairs.

I mean Alexander.

"I'm done eating." He states and I understood and stood up. I went to take the dishes he ate from and I washed them.

After washing the dishes I didn't even go outside of the kitchen I just stood beside the kitchen counter and stared at the floor...

If only Maurice would wake up and tell me to eat something I wouldn't be scared of what Alex would say when I cook for myself.

"What are you doing?" I suddenly heard this voice.

I flinched visibly, hit my elbow on the hard counter and quickly looked up but my hair covered my face and I suddenly moved it away.

Then I see Alex standing at the kitchen entrance looking straight at me.

"n-nothing" I said and he nods and walked in all the same.

"Nothing?" he asked and I nod.

He walked closer to me.

Terribly close and leaned his face closer to meet mine.

"By any chance, Have we met before?" he asks out of nowhere

"N-no, I-i don't know... I mean I don't think so" I stammer and he straightens up and nods.

Goodness why am I scared of him.

"Okay... Then I'll like to let you know some major rules of the house since Lisa didn't give you all the details" he said and I nod slowly.

"First of all, don't you cut that hair of yours? at least make it a shoulder length hair? Because while cooking some strands of hair may fall into the food and I might eat it and die. Do you want me dead? Or by any chance did someone send you here to kill me by choking me with your hair?" he asks and I immediately shake my head in the negative.

He is certainly crazy. Where is he getting all this crazy ideas from? Even when I sometimes brush my hair, I never see strands of hair on the brush, my hair doesn't pull From my head, even the tiniest of them all.

"No.. No one sent me here to kill.. Neither do I have any intention to kill you..." I quickly say before he takes my silence as a yes and defend myself.

"Then do something about this hair of yours." he said.

I almost give him a glare but he was staring straight at me.

Probably hoping to get a reaction out of me so he can fire me for being 'cheeky'.

But, how can I possibly tell him I can't cut my hair, cause it will probably grow back to the way it was the next day?

"I can't" I said and broke the eye contact he suddenly had with me and turned my eyes to the ground.

"What do you mean you can't?" he asks, seemingly curious. I could see it in his eyes.

"Because it will be of no use, if I cut it, it will gro-- Oh just forget it." I said and rolled my eyes.

Uh-oh.

Did I just rolled my eyes at him?

"Did you just talk to me rudely?" he asks but I immediately apologize.

"Don't try to test my patience Halo" he warned and I nod rapidly.

Like I would ever want to get on his bad side.

He walked suavely out of the kitchen while I just sighed and walked out too. He heads back to his room while I just went back to the living room to sit...

Staring at the blank television like it's an hobby...

I sigh heavily and hope that Alex won't fire me for whatever reason...
