“Did I tell you Eva?” I asked my wife as we sat across each other eating
“Tell me what?” She replied with a mouthful.
” Donald has a maid” I grinned
“Tell me another joke” she said in a flipp-nt manner.
“Have I ever lied to you Eva?” I put a hand over my chest.
“Yes”
“When?”
“Today, when I called at lunch, you told me you were eating the food I prepared for you but you were eating anothe instead”
Ohgawd….why did you give me a witch as wife??
“How…di….did y-you know?” I stuttered
“Call it a woman’s sixth sense, especially a wife’s”
“Well believe me now, Donald has a maid and it was her food I was eating when you called” I felt pleased with myself to be the first telling her.
“Can we visit this weekend?” Her eyes lit up.
“Don’t tell me you want to matchmake them.”
“No, I’m going to warn her to stay away from Donald so he doesn’t hurt her and do exactly as he says. I hope she lives through till I get there”
“I don’t think she’s intimidated by him though”
“You can’t say that….” She stopped talking and listening to the sound that was coming from our three year old daughter’s room.
“Your baby needs attention” she said to me.
“Isn’t she our baby?” I replied dreading to go to Lina’s room. She won’t let me off easily.
Eva stood up and packed our plates “you don’t want our daughter disturbing the neighborhood, do you?” She ruffled my hair and gave me the don’t-argue-with-me look. “Good luck” she added
I gulped and walked slowly to our daughter’s room.
She stopped crying when she saw me and stretched both arms towards me with bright eyes “Flying” she called out my name.
“This is going to be a long night” I whined internally.
Donald 🍂🍂
I watched her retreating back in annoyance and went to the kitchen to heat up the food. The only good thing about her stay here since three days ago is her food. I must admit, she has good cooking skills.
When I was through, I locked the shutters, the doors and switched off the lights before heading to my room.
What word can I use to qualify my forced maid.
I brought out my ex’s picture and studied her face. That has being my ritual every night for the past two years. It’s still surprising that someone I loved could become a beast yet I can’t find myself unloving her. I sighed and put her picture back in my wallet and slept, welcoming the nightmares that would follow as usual.
Next morning 🌷🌷
I woke up to the sound of my bedroom door opening.
I sat up quickly and watched her pick the dirty clothes I had deliberately dropped on the floor.
“Glad to see you’re awake. Sorry for barging into your room that way because you could be unclad but don’t worry, it’s nothing I haven’t seen. Now back to business, next time put your clothes in the laundry basket not the floor. You’re not a five year old for goodness sake!!”
“Umm sorry? What’s your job? Why are you complaining?”
” Seems you’re getting lazy of recent, your house wasn’t dirty when I came but now it’s getting worst everyday.”
“Isn’t that why you’re here?” I asked.
“If you litter the ground again, you’ll take the trash out. That’s final”
That zipped my l-ips instantly.
She shook her head and left the room.
I fell back on the bed, an exasperated sigh escaping my l-ips. I love my solitude!!
I stood up and took out my drawing board. I set it beside the window such that the morning rays of light landed on the board and began drawing. Yeah you’re right, I draw when I’m nervous, angry, sad and even happy, it’s what keeps my sanity especially after my ex.
I stopped drawing few minutes later and looked at what I drew. It made no sense and took no shape. I covered it and dressed for the day.
I’m definitely skinning Flynn for eating my lunch yesterday and disappearing.
I went down to the dining where my food was already served. I sat and ate quietly. Everything feels so new, once upon a time I would be the one going through the stress of cooking but that doesn’t mean I’m happy she’s here.
I took my car keys and made to go. I passed through the living room on my way out and found her doing yoga on a tango mat on the floor.
“That’s your lunch” she nodded to the pack sitting at the edge of the table.
” Hope you aren’t forgetting water or whatever this time”
“No Mister”
“Phew!” I breathed out and opened the front door after taking the pack.
“Wait Mister, I need to see you”
This is it, she’s finally going. My mind made a joyful leap.
“Yes,What’s it?” I tried asking as nonchalantly as possible.
“I need a phone” she grinned lopsidedly.
“Wait what?”
“Yes, a phone”
“What about the one with you?” I asked
“Oh this?” She waved the phone, it for personal use, not official use.
“Is there a difference?”
“Sadly, yes. A very big difference or do you want me to pull off the stunt I did yesterday to give you water and apple juice?”
“Fine, I’ll get you one”I conceded
“And while you are at it, it’s only a day to weekend, I’ll need to go to the grocery store” she said.
“Okay, I’ll drop one of credit cards tomorrow for you”
“Cool and I need a car too”
“For what?” I asked in annoyance, I was getting late.
“To go to the store or did you expect me to work”
“It’s five minutes walk from here, young lady”
“I know sire but I can’t walk around under the sun.”
“Then take a car yourself, you should know where the car keys are.”
“I don’t know how to drive” she said plainly.
Ohgawd…
“Who did you say you are again?” I asked in frustration.
“Your maid”
“I think you meant to say someone sent h’ll to infuriate me!” I stomped out.
Episode six🌺🌺🧸
Donald 🍂🍂
I grumbled as made my way to my car. Personal and official phone. Hmph.
I parked in the reserved place meant for me and entered the building. It’s funny how I achieved things quickly after my ex left. “My office” I said to Flynn who was chatting away with the receptionist.
The smile on his froze and he trailed slowly behind me. I opened my office and dropped the lunch bag on my table and loosened my tie a little.
“Didn’t I ask you not to eat the food yesterday?” I glowered at him.
“I-I thought you wouldn’t eat it and I don’t want the food to waste” he looked at anywhere but me.
I slumped down on my chair, swiveling it around as I pondered on if I should give in to her demands or not. Well I don’t have a choice, do I?
“I need phone” I said to Flynn
“Don’t you have one?”
“Well did I say it’s for me?”
“You have a girlfriend?” His face brightened.
“No, it’s for CounterKnee”
“Ohhh…” He looked at me, waiting for me to explain further.
“Yeah and employ a driver for her too. Apparently she needs a driver to go to the grocery store”
“I love her guts” Flynn said in admiration.
“I hate her guts. She’s like a pest I can’t get rid off as much as I want to, she’s always blackmailing me! I don’t even know the adjective to qualify her?”
“She’s strict?” Flynn suggested.
“No no, that’s not it”
“Harsh?”
“No, she’s not harsh. She just…..”
“Do you mean bossy?” He wriggled his eyebrows.
“Yeah” I snapped my fingers “perfect. She’s a bossy maid”
“I like the sound of that. Can I eat your lunch?” Flynn asked
“No” I snapped at him and you had better get to ordering the phone and getting a driver if you don’t want her here”
Courtney 💃💃
I heard a knock on the door and went towards it with a frown. Did Donald forget something??
I opened the door and found a delivery man standing at the entrance.
“Are you Bossy maid?” He asked.
“Bossy maid? I questioned to be sure I heard the right thing.
“Yeah that’s what’s written here”
“Oh okay, I guess”
“This is for you” he gave me a package and made me sign before he left.
I shifted the large box of pizza sitting on the table and unwrapped the package.
It was a phone with girly designs. I switched on the phone and a message popped on the screen.
I clicked on it with a smile 💬 Hi Bossy maid. Here’s the phone you ordered and your food is really delicious. I’m always at your service. Flynn💬
I shook my head and immediately did away with my old phone after transferring all the useful files to the new one and continued chewing on my pizza.
He bought the phone. Another message popped in 💬Your driver will be with you tomorrow after Donald leaves for work and please package a food for two tomorrow, Donald wouldn’t share with me💔 -Flynn💬
He got me a driver too.
My old phone beeped, alerting me of a new message. I skimmed through the contents and switched the phone off.
Weekend 🤗
I dropped the food basket on the grass and laid a big cloth. We are having a picnic and as a maid, my presence is needed.
Donald sat on the cloth, I noticed he has been avoiding me, maybe he doesn’t want me to make a request again, I stood behind him on the watch out for Flynn and his family.
“Can you please sit down? Having you as a maid is enough, I don’t need you act as s guard too”
“No” I replied and stood straighter, imitating a soldier’s stand.
I eventually s₱0tted them. His wife is what I call the perfect definition of beauty. She has the body of a model, eyes and hair of an angel and smile that brightens day. I started to feel self conscious and wondered if the short floral was okay enough.
“Hello” She came over to hug and kssed my cheeks. I like her instantly.
“I’m Courtney” I introduced to myself.
“I’m Eva and these are my children” she nodded at a five year boy and three year old girl.
“Hi guys” I waved at the children.
“Let’s sit” I gestured to the big cloth on the floor.
“Sure and let’s have a woman to woman talk” she cast a worry glance at Donald who was looking at our entire exchange silently.
We formed a circle on the cloth while Eva dished out the food. Her children went out to play with other kids.
“Courtney, do you know Donald loves drawing?” Flynn asked.
My eyes perked up “Really?”
Donald gave a Flynn a cold stare and dug into his food angrily.
“So he can draw very well?” I asked
“He’s super good at it” Flynn said
“Wow”
“Courtney, I know Donald has been giving you trouble lately but can you please bear with him for our sakes? He can be such a dkhead at times”
“Mygawd Eva!” I faked surprise “How do you know?”
“See Flynn? I told you he’ll trouble her” Eva turned to her husband.
Flynn shared a glance with Donald who opened his mouth to object.
I shot him a look that shut him up instantly but he mumbled something under his breath about the injustice of life.
“If the situation is intense, call me” she punched her numbers in my phone.
I nodded understandingly and gave Donald a mischievous look which he returned with a glare.
If he’s looking at me this way, I wonder what he’ll do when he sees what I have prepared for him at home.
Donald 😩😭
We were having the pinic quietly until Flynn and Eva opened their mouth to ruin everything. First Flynn told her I can draw, that’s too personal for her to know.
I ate my food angrily and glanced up when I heard Eva talking.
“Courtney, I know Donald has been giving you trouble lately but can you please bear with him for our sakes? He can be such a d*ckhead at times”
What’s Eva saying? It’s CounterKnee that’s giving me trouble not the other way round.
“Mygawd Eva!” CounterKnee replied in what I know is fake surprise “How do you know?”
“See Flynn? I told you he’ll trouble her” Eva turned to her husband.
This is unbelievable!! I opened my mouth to defend myself but she me that look, that blackmailing keep your mouth shut look. I snapped my mouth shut in anger.
“If the situation is intense, call me” Eva gave her number to CounterKnee.
She looked at me with a eyes full of mischief and I glared at her in response then suddenly, she broke out in a smile.
“Mister, do you want more?” She asked with smiles and made to give me another plate of food.
“No” I replied quickly and looked at her suspiciously, what’s she up to this time? She has never smiled at me, why’s she smiling now?
“Awwwn… she’s so cute” Eva cooed to her husband.
I found myself scared of her suspicious smile, I think it’s better if she frowns instead.
“Um guys…. I think it’s going to rain let’s head home” I looked at the clouds which was darkening the sky.
We have parting hugs and ksses and they went to their car while CounterKnee trailed behind me still giving me that eerie smile.
I drove us home unable to shake off the feeling I was having.
CounterKnee rushed in,side and left the food basket for me to carry. I sighed tiredly and left the basket in the car.
I entered the living room and found about ten different ladies sitting.
CounterKnee was standing beside one of them with a very stern look.
I knew it! All her smiles were pretentious.
I ignored them and made to go my room but her voice stopped me in my tracks.
“Your mother said you need a wife so I brought these girl for you to choose from or you need more girls?”
