Get Me Married

Chapter 16: You gave me the right

I woke up when I heard some sounds around my room, I stared and opened my eyes. Maids were in my room cleaning.

“Good morning ma’am” they chorused when I sat up and I stared at each and everyone of their faces.

They were all young and good looking girls and it still felt awkward for me to know they would serving me.

I gave them a nod and smiled weakly at them before I got up.

“would you like your breakfast to be brought up here” one of them asked and I shook my head.

“Your bath is ready” another came out of the bathroom and bowed her head to me.

“thanks” I said and looked around.

Then I noticed that another was arranging my clothes in the wardrobe.

Memories of what Happened the previous night came back to me. I remembered how I had

spoken to Jordan and my heart skipped. I suddenly felt nervous knowing I had stepped on his tail and it wasn’t a good feeling.

“Are you okay?” another one asked and I gave her a faint smile.

“yes… I am” I said and got up from the bed and walked over to the bathroom.

It was huge and spacious but I knew it wasn’t as huge as the one at the masters bedroom. The bathtub was placed in the center of the bathroom and a mirror stand was placed behind it. By the side of the bathroom, a shower was placed with a glass wall that surrounded it with the water closet in it. I wondered what the masters bedroom would actually feel like…

“Shhhh” I shushed my own thought, wondering how my thought would have gone to the masters bedroom.

I shook off the feeling of regret that threatened to overwhelm me and turned to the bath tub. It was foamy and inviting and I couldn’t wait to get in. I took off my robe and stepped into the bathtub. It was just the way I liked it, warm enough for me. Not too cold, not too hot. I dipped myself into it and placed my body while I rested my head above the water.

I stayed there for a while, unwilling to come out of the water even after taking my bath.

“You might catch a cold if you don’t come down soon” someone said from the door and I turned towards it to see an older lady standing by it. She wasn’t as young as the other maids I saw but I could tell she was a staff because of her uniform

“Good morning ma’am” she added and walked into the bathroom with some of my clothes in her hands.

“Good morning” I replied her and she smiled warmly at me.

“I’m Margaret, the head maid here” she introduced and I smiled at how contagious her smile was.

“Well…you know me” | said with embarrassment and she chuckled.

“Ofcourse I do” she replied.

“What would you like to wear?” she asked and raised the clothes she held so I could see them.

“You will pick my clothes too?” I asked and she smiled.

We are here to serve you” she said and I looked at her bewildered. I
