Story of a University Girl

Ashly, as the middle and only girl child, was not bound to get love from their parents. As early as 5 years old, Ashly was sent to her grandparents to live with them. Her family didn't want to raise her. Living with her grandparents, Ashly became aware that she needed to do or obey anything just for them to love her. Ashly learned how to hold a knife at the age of 7. Most children at this age would play outside and have fun together with other children, but to Ashly, that's not how it works. Ashly needs to assist her grandparents with all things like cleaning the dishes, cooking, and such. Ashly had always been assisting her grandparents with things, but not until she turned 13. Ever since she turned 13, her grandparents have treated her like a maid. She always woke up earlier than the roaster in their neighborhood to cook for their breakfast. After cooking, she will arrange the table and call for them. After eating, she will clean the dishes. Clean the house till 10 am, then start cooking for lunch and dinner. If it's the weekend or she doesn't have a class, this is her typical schedule. But these things change when she starts attending a university. ////ORIGINAL STORY//

CHAPTER 3

English is not my first language, so there might be a grammatical error in this chapter.

"Hey miss!" Her grandma shouted at Ashly, who was sleeping peacefully in her own bed. "Hey Miss," she yelled while tossing the things she touched at Ashly.

Ashly woke up when she felt her face itching. She looked up and saw her grandma's eye roaring and glaring at her. "Uh... Grandma?" She said, while holding her cheeks. "Don't grandma, grandma me! What time is it, huh? Why haven't you cooked our dinner yet? What are you, madam of this house? Hurry up before I kick your ass " Without a second thought, I hurriedly ran to the kitchen to start cooking.

Ashly opened a can of spam and cut it into five pieces. She put oil on the pan and put the spam on it. While waiting for it to cook, Ashley washes the dishes that her grandparents used when she was at university, passing her requirements.

After washing the dishes, she looked at the spam. It was now ready to eat. She placed it on a plate and arranged things. After arranging things, Ashley called her grandparents.

Ashly pov

"Grandma, grandpa!" I said while knocking on their door.

"Grandma I already cooked something. "

"Then go and get it! We will eat here,"she said.

I didn't answer her and just picked up their dinner and placed it in their room. I put 2 1/2 spam on each plate. I didn't leave any on me because I didn't have any appetite today.

"Uh, just call me after you finish eating, so I'm going and puffed up those plates," I said, bowing like a maid in the movie.

———

After they ate, I cleaned all the things and locked myself in my room. I looked at myself in the mirror.

Hah! Is that me? Why am I so ugly?

I said while touching my cheeks that I get bruises after my grandma throws me something. I put an ointment on it. "Ah it hurts!" I shriek. A tear fell down my eyes..

Morning comes and here I am already cleaning the things I needed to clean. I went to the bakery to buy some fresh bread for breakfast because we didnt have any stock in the house for me to cook.

I came back and saw my grandparents on the terrace laughing. I didn't want to disturb them, so I walked quietly to the side and while they were laughing, I heard my name.

"Ashley? She's not here. That girl is really lazy."

WHAT? I'm lazy?

"She didn't even help me here, she just slept and ate. That was all. What a burden."

Oh, I think she's talking to her daughter, or should I say auntie? Whenever they talk online, it's always their topic. They always backstab me even though I try my best to be good to be the best and she doesn't appreciate it.

I decided to greet my grandparents with a smile and say, "Good morning! I bought this freshly baked at Uncle Ben's! " Uncle Ben is a famous baker in our town. After I said that the looks on my grandma's face became unpleasant, it was as if she had gotten caught making lies about me.

"Anyway, hon, I gotta go," grandma says to her daughter, my auntie.

After the call, she looked at me and said, "Just put it down and do something. Don't be lazy and lie all the time in your room!" I didn't even bother to answer her, but I smiled

Arghhh Lazy. I'm lazy. When was I the only one doing everything in this house?Ha!

I close the door to my room and start watching a cartoon. I watch cartoons even though I'm past 18 because I never had the time to watch this when I was a kid. Because all I do is help my grandma and in school, every time they say doraemon, I can't relate because I just recently learned who Doraemon is.
