“Hold on…i can’t believe i forgot to do this”
He said.
“What?” I asked.
“Please drop your luggage,i need to search
it”
What!!!
“W..wh..y?” I stammered,grateful i didn’t
bring my pistol with me.
Anne is gonna deliver my pistol, Ninja
outfit and boots later to me tonight.
“I need to be sure you’re harmless,in case i
start seeing some strange things in the
house,i won’t have any cause to suspect
you. Please hand it over” He said.
I did with a sigh..
This guy is a maniac!
What if i had my pistol or ninja outfit in it..
Boss is so amazing…i guess he already
knew this would happen.
I gasped when i saw Darrel dangling my
red P@ntiës in his hand.
“I’m sorry” He said and dropped it and i
noticed he was trying hard to hide his
grin.
d@mn!
I watched him ransack my luggage.
There’s no way i would have kept a
weapon in there that he won’t find out.
“I guess I’m safe” he said and started
folding back my wears neatly in the box.
“No..it’s fine,I’ll do it” I said and crouched
beside him.
“I scattered it,I’ll do it” He said.
“I’m going to do it” I said.
“I insist” He said and i sighed.
I straightened up and watched him
arrange my wears.
He got to my P@ntiës and i couldn’t help
but feel embarrassed as he folded it along
with my wears.
He glanced at me when he was about
folding the red one.
Geez!
Nincompoop!!
I switched my gaze to the blank TV and
turned back to him when i heard him
zipping the bag.
He stood up and handed the bag back to
me.
“Do i need to search you too?” He asked.
‘do i really look like a criminal!!!’
“Yeah…go ahead” I said and he smiled.
“I won’t,it’s improper for me to search a
lady but I’m sure you don’t have anything
with you cause i already scanned your
body before i let you in” He said.
“Are you suspecting that i might come
here to harm you when i don’t even know
who you are” I said.
“Everyone is a suspect,i don’t trust people
easily until i get to know them deeply” He
said.
“That’s understandable” I said.
“Of course. So you can go into your room
now and relax, Nathaniel will get to show
you around,i guess you both already got
along”
“Yeah,he’s a nice guy” I smiled.
“Okay then” He said and plopped on the
couch,he grabbed the remote control.
I turned and started walking to the stairs
looking around in the process.
I climbed the stairs slowly while staring at
the beautiful artworks displayed all over
the walls.
“Fourth room on the right” I murmured
when i got to the last flight of stairs which
led to a big passage.
Wow..
This house is just amazing.
I counted the doors on the right one after
the other till i got to the fourth one.
I walked towards it, wondering if there’ll
be a CCTV in my room.
I won’t be surprised if there is.
I opened the door and stepped in,the first
thing i searched for was the camera.
I dropped my luggage on the bed and
started searching,i entered the luxurious
bathroom and surveyed the whole place, i
walked back to the room and surveyed it
more.
Yes!
There’s no single camera in here.
I’m good to go then…i can do anything i
want in here.
I sat on the bed and carefully admired my
room..
It’s more beautiful and cool than my room
at Pine estate.
I bounced on the bed..it wasn’t as soft as
I’d like but it’s fine.
Everything looked moderately beautiful.
I stood up and unzipped my bag.
I need to unpack, freshen up and maybe
eat.
I’m not very hungry though but i know I’ll
be, when I’m done freshening up.
I opened the wardrobe and started
hanging my clothes…i left out the one i’m
gonna change into.
I made my undies stay in the drawer and
then arranged my three pairs of slippers in
the shoe rack.
I powered my phone and then placed it on
my bedside stool.
I’m expecting message or call from them.
I picked my toiletry bag and also my body
towel before strolling into the bathroom.
“Wow!” I exclaimed.
I guess i didn’t got the chance to look
around while i was searching for a
camera.
This bathroom looks okay.
There are expensive white bath towels on
the towel rail and i hung my black towel
there also.
My favorite color is black!
White looks too holy for me.
Should i make use of the bath tub or
shower cubicle?
I will make use of the bath tub,my body
needs a long soak.
I pulled out of my clothes and opened the
bathroom cabinet,i grabbed a shower cap
and wore it over my hair.
I tucked some stubborn strands in.
I stepped on the bath mat and filled the
tub with warm soapy water before sliding
into it.
Oh..my..God.
This is paradise…
***
I dried my feet on the bath mat and
grabbed my bath towel, I wrapped it
round my body before walking out of the
bathroom.
I feel so good.
I dried my body and got into fresh wears.
Blue baggy pants and black t-shirt.
I returned my shower cap and towel to
the bathroom…
I returned my shower cap and towel to
the bathroom.
My phone beeped immediately i got back
to my room.
Ohh…A message…
I picked it up and unlocked it,i clicked on
the message.
You’ve gotten there already right.
Don’t bother to call,say all you wanna say
to Anne once she comes in the night.
Boss.
I smiled and deleted the message
Immediately.
I’m not meant to keep messages on my
phone. That guy in the living room is a
crook.
I went to sit on the stool facing the mirror.
I winked at my reflection and smiled.
I picked my hairbrush and started
brushing my hair.
Done!
I glanced at the wall clock.
Geez!
It’s 1pm already.
I need to go prepare lunch,then Nath will
show me around later..
I stood up and picked a black pair of
slippers.
I slide my feet into it before walking out of
the room.
I descended the stairs and walked into the
living room.
I met no one and i decided to locate the
kitchen myself.
It wasn’t so difficult to find.
I walked into the kitchen and wondered
why everywhere in this house looks so
beautiful.
I’ve always thought Joel is the nearest guy
i know but Darrel just proved me wrong.
I was expecting an untidy kitchen but
what I’m looking at right now is more
than tidy.
I walked round the kitchen, glancing and
admiring every single thing in there.
We have more than this at Pine estate,i
wonder why this look more pleasant to
me..
I got to the fridge and pulled it open.
Wow!
Varieties of food ingredients.
What should i make then?
Yes!
Cranberry sauce and cheese.
“”*””*
“I kept perceiving something delicious” I
heard Darrel said behind me.
I was startled but didn’t show it.
I poured some olive oil into the iron
skillet,added the sliced onions,tomatoes
and some berry.
“What are you making?” He asked.
“Cranberry sauce and cheese” I said.
“Wow!” He exclaimed and i noticed he
was already standing close.
I proceeded with my cooking while he
watched.
I felt a bit uncomfortable but i had no
choice.
It’s his house.
“I thought i said you should relax for
today and start work tomorrow” He said.
“Yeah but i guess cooking is exclusive” I
said.
“I actually like the way you cook” He said.
“Thanks” I said.
“I’ll be leaving at the living room,call on me
when it’s ready” He said and i nodded.
I couldn’t help but gave out a loud sigh
when i was sure he’s already at the living
room.
He’s good at making one feel restless.
What if i had planned to poison the meal,i
bet he would find out.
**
I already went to serve Nath his..
He was so excited when i told him he’s
gonna show me around later.
I dished out Darrel’s and took it to the
dining room.
“Your lunch is dished” I said loudly.
“Okay thanks” He said from the living
room.
I returned to the kitchen and dished out
mine.
I sat on the stool in the kitchen and placed
my meal on the breakfast bar.
I started eating.
*
“Mia” I heard Darrel called when i was
halfway with my meal.
I wondered why my name sounded so
sweet in his mouth.
“Yes .. d.. sir” I said and stood up when i
saw him already standing by the kitchen
door.
“Com’on don’t call me Sir. I’ll appreciate it if
you call me just Darrel” He said.
“Okay,just Darrel” I said and he laughed.
“No,i mean; just call me Darrel” He said.
“Okay Darrel” I said.
“Why are you eating here? You’re
supposed to eat at the dining” He said.
“Huh?”
“Yeah,come eat at the dinning with me”
He said.
“Really?” I asked in surprise.
“Yeah,why are you surprised?” He asked.
“I..im just a housekeeper” I said.
“Com’on you’re not just a housekeeper,you
‘re my housemate” He said.
Wow!
Is he tryna be nice?
“Ohh.. okay,I’ll join you soon Darrel” I said.
“Be fast,i can’t wait to devour that meal”
He said and walked away.
Wow!
It’s obvious he isn’t tryna be nice.
That’s how he is.
So humble.
“Mia” He called.
“I’m coming” I picked my plate and glass
cup of water before rushing to the dining
room.
“Thanks Nath for showing me around” I
said as we both stood outside the door.
I really enjoyed the tour round the house.
Nath kept me busy with funny talks and i
almost cracked my rib.
I never thought i could laugh this hard on
my first day here.
I never laughed this hard when i was..
Ugh!
Why do i keep comparing..
I’m starting to feel comfortable already.
“I’ll serve you your dinner after I’m done
cooking okay?” I said to him and ring the
bell.
“Okay Mia” he smiled.
The door opened and Darrel appeared.
“You don’t have to ring the bell whenever
you wanna come in” He said and walked
back into the house,leaving the door
opened.
I stepped in and waved to Nath before
shutting the door.
