Chapter 6 💕

~…~…~…~

Rage! Rage was all I felt, standing in front of him.

Seriously? Outta all the possibles, he chose this?!

Man, he needs a brain reset and I’m sure gon do that one day.

I wanted to throw the file roughly at him but I knew well not to cross my boundaries.

I walked to the table and gently placed down the file before turning back at him.

With the calmest, gentlest, sweetest voice I could come up with, I blurted out ” I’m sorry I can’t “.

He chuckled, before fixing his gaze at me.

“whether or not you accept it now, you’re always gonna crawl back to me ” he said with so much confidence.

I think I’ll have to consider mom and dad’s decision on flying me outta the country.

“And oops! You’ll come back to me because even other countries won’t employ you since I spammed your identity W. O. R. L. D W. I. D. E” he blurted out, emphasizing on the last part.

He must be kidding, right? I mean, if I fly out to another country, I’ll get a job, right?

There were so many tantrums I wanted to throw at him but his intimidating personality really got a hold on me.

I let out a soft breath, turned and walked outta the mansion.

➡ ➡ ➡ ➡ ➡ ➡

Once at home, I rushed to to my room, grabbed my HP laptop and sat my butt down on the bed.

I’m just gonna find an online job in any other country to see if I’m legible for it.

………………………

Bruh! I’m dead 😭.

I’m so a goner! He was right! He’s always been right!

I always knew from the start that I’ve got no luck except bad luck.

I folded up on my bed, my brain processing everything going on in my life.

How can I stay with such a person? And that too as a maid!

That’s willingly accepting to be a slave!

There isn’t even a fixed date for my freedom.

Working over there is worse than hell.

I can already imagine the punishments I’ll go through if I made a mistake.

But what about my life? No jobs? My dreams of working in a company and owning my own company won’t come to pass.

I’ll just be there, be nothing but a useless clumsy dweeb.

This is life anyway and I’ve always known shit ain’t easy so I gotta be strong and of all things, be brave like dad taught me.

I’ll have to take this risk for myself, for my dreams, for my future.

I made a mistake and I’ve gotta pay for it.

ALRIGHT! I’M ACCEPTING THE DEAL.

I tried hærd to keep my butt comfortable on the chair as mom and I had dinner.

God! I’m sweating already.

I’ve decided to accept the deal but I can’t bring myself to tell mom.

I mean, how the hell am I gon tell her?

I’m 101% sure she’d never agree to this.

Mom’s so soft hearted and she loves me like freaking much so she wouldn’t let her only child go through hell AGAIN!

No mother would anyway, but mom’s a pro at things like this.

“uhh… Mo…Mom?” I stuttered.

I smiled at her when I gained her attention.

“uhm I.. I.. Mommy I.. ” I stuttered again, trying hærd to spill out the words.

This made her stop eating, stared at me for some seconds before laughing out loud.

Her laugh was contagious and though I was going through a lot, I joined her in laughing at my own stupidity.

“C’mon baby, I’m your mother not some stranger to vomit out your lungs before spilling the beans ” she teased and that brought a bright smile to my face.

I let out the buckled breath and looked straight at her.

“I’m gonna work…. “I blurted and I could see her eyes beam in joy but not for long cause I completed the sentence.

“I’m gonna work at the McKenzie’s mansion ” I blurted out with eyes shut tight.

I can’t, I can’t look straight in her eyes cause I could already picture the pain she’d be in.

“have you gone nuts?! ” she yelled causing me to flinch.

She was so angry and that made me scared cause I’ve never seen her like this.

“you wanna go back to the same people that had no pity on you when you made a simple mistake?! You wanna go back to em monsters that tortured you?! You wanna go back to them that see your life as nothing?! ” she yelled amidst tears.

Tears had already started rolling down my cheeks at the scene I made.

“honey” she called softly, coming beside me.

I’d started shaking as I cried.

“baby, baby what made you say that huh? What made you think of something like that? ” she asked, wiping away my tears with her hands while hers were rushing down like a never ending rain.

“Is it cause you can’t get a job? Don’t worry about that, dad and I will make sure you have the best future and give you anything you need ” she said in a coarse voice.

“Or, did they threaten you? Baby talk to me ” she said in a pleading voice and that only made me cry more.

I hugged her and cried on her shoulders.

……………………………………………………………

 

Mom sat beside me on my bed, now sober and angry, I guess.

I told her everything about the deal except for the maid part of course.

She might accept to let me do this but telling her the work is as a maid stand a “never” for me 💀.

“mom it’s for my future and it’s worth the risk ” I told her.

Her facial expression clearly showed she wasn’t buying any of my bull shit.

“mom I.. ”

“enough! ” she yelled causing me to flinch again.

“I’ve had enough of your gibberish! You’re not going back to that house and surely not living your life under them and that’s final ” she stated and walked outta my room without a second glance at me.

I sighed and laid on my bed.

Everything is gonna be okay, it’s all gon be fine.

I closed my eyes and slept off.

……………………………………………………………

 

I felt a gentle touch on my cheek, sliding down to my chin so I popped open my eyes.

“dad ” I said in a soft morning voice.

He smiled at me and adjusted a lil backward as I sat up.

I hugged him and he gently patted my back.

“lemme guess, mom called you ” I said and he nodded making me sigh and roll my eyes.

“She must have gone all ‘Andrew please come back and talk some senses into our daughter, she’s gone nuts’ ” I mocked and dad and I laughed.

“sshh, she might hear us ” dad shushed me and we chuckled softly.

I told dad everything and I was not surprised when he supported me.

I know this might seem weird to you guys but dad always supports braveness and he’s proud of me.

I told dad everything though, didn’t hide a thing away from him.

He said I should do what I feel is right for me and my future and now the only problem is mom.

Dad and I gazed at each other for some secs before laughing out loud cause we sure knew mom’s a hærd head and she won’t come by so easily.

“I’ll try my best in talking to her and maybe my magic will work ” dad said and I smiled at him.

“thanks dad, I love you ”

“I love you too my princess ”

Dad left me to do my morning routine.

Did my morning routine and went downstairs to the dinning to have breakfast with mom and dad.

Dad and I passed signals with our eyes and mom kinda noticed the ongoing scenario but didn’t understand.

We finished breakfast and mom and dad went into the balcony while I cleared the table.

The day passed by so quick it was already night.

We all had dinner and there was still no news from mom.

It’s h-rder than I thought.

I got under my blanket but sat back up when mom walked into my room.

My heart was pounding so hærd in my chest.

Will she accept or not?

She smiled and sat beside me on my bed.

She gently car-ssed my hair and a tear rolled down her left cheek.

My eyes got w-t and she wiped away the tear that rolled down my left cheek.

“don’t cry baby ” she smiled at me.

“is this what you really want hun? ” she asked.

I nodded yes, not able to say a word.

“alright then” she replied and I rushed into her arms.

She finally agreed.

“we’re gonna support your every decision sweetie and I don’t wanna thwart you from doing what you feel is good for you ” she added and I hugged her tight.

“you’re the best mom, I love you so much ” I said in a low tone.

“I love you more Allie ” She said and wrapped her arms tight around me.

…………………………………………………………….

I woke up in mom’s arms and she smiled when she saw I was awake .

“Good morning lil angel” She said warmly and pecked my mega forehead .

“Morning Mom” I replied softly .

“Imma leave you to yourself”

She left while I did my morning routine.

Once done, I had breakfast with Mom and Dad before going to the McKenzie’s Mansion.

I assured Mom and Dad that I’d be back and they should trust me which they did by letting me out of course.

I finished the processes to the McKenzie’s Mansion and was allowed in.

The gate to the Mansion automatically opened again as if sensing my presence.

I went in and saw the McKenzie (Don’t know his name so…) entering a black Lamborghini.

I rushed to the car front and stood there .

He alighted from the car and I went over to him.

This fag is always right! I mean look at me, I’m back here like he predicted.

I stood boldly in front of him and with a smile, I said “I accept the deal”.
