The Bride Of The Billionaire
Chapter 8: The king and I
I hear a familiar sound that makes me fully awake, I remember my bestfriend. Ching Galvez.
That's her favorite song and she's a number one fan of Tylor Swift. Love story of Tylor Swift is now playing.
I face the new day with a deep sigh, I don't know how to start this new day. :(
I don't know their routine here and I felt scared.
I chatted Stacey and before turning off my phone I grab a towel and take a shower.
"Miss Celo, a special burger from señorito" another chief come up to me and hand me a plate, a black burger was there and it's cheesy, looks tasty and I see the meat and veggies. It really looks very tasty that suddenly my stomach grumbles. I love it.
"Why he gave her that? That's kinda unfair"
"She's just new here, then why? Argh! "
"Owh, she's beautiful and the uniform really suits to her"
"OMG! Señorito likes her?"
"No way! That can't be"
"Stop that Erika! you sounds jealous"
"You don't care! I like him since I came here! You all know that!"
"Well, I guess you don't have a chance. You see? "
I hear some murmurings. Murmurings? but that's enough for me to hear what they said. That doesn't makes me glad, those makes me mad and enough to make me feel awkward.
"T-thank you!" I reply and awkwardly receive the plate, I'm shy.
I hear gossips while I'm walking and I don't have a friend here, I feel like I'm a high school transferee student that walks to the cafeteria alone and can't find her seat.
I keep on walking until I reach the wide kitchen and I saw some co-workers.
"G-good morning" I choose to change the vibe so I try to smile, a genuine one and I received a smile too. That's comforting.
"Wow, I never saw a black burger before" it's Irene, I remember her mole above her lip. She's beautiful but it's obvious that she's around 30's now.
"Me too, a-ahm, what did señorito gave to you guys in the first day you work here?" I awkwardly ask them with a smile.
I guess this is a traditional way to welcome a new worker.
"I can't remember a thing, how about you guys?" she asked the others.
"He didn't give us such a special food, hmm!"
"Ahem!" an interruption.
"A-ah! Mother Sharn, good morning." I greeted, feeling at ease now that I sad her.
"Good morning Lorence, oh! a special burger isn't it?" she said and give me a weird smile.
"Y-you want mother Sharn?" I asked.
"No! That's exclusively made for you. Everyone guide her since she's new her, are we clear?"
"Yes ma'am!" only few respond but that's enough to make me happy.
I eat the burger while they're talking.
"Hmm! Lorence I saw Señorito and ma'am Sharn yesterday checking you at your room, I wonder why." Stella started it.
"A-ah? Did they?" Why? I can't believe it, so Raze's mouth slip? He mean it? I mean he really check me out since he say so. Sleeping tight is a clue.
"Yeah!" she replied and sip a coffee.
I finished eating the burger and go to the comfort room.
I hurriedly get the note in my pocket. The note I saw in the burger plate earlier.
I'm in front of the sink and a wide mirror and I see my reflection, I'm kinda excited to read it, to feed my curiosity also.
"Thank you earlier. -Raze" owh, that's it? So it's a thank you treat.
I smile as I remember the photo of him that I took secretly. That was so epic but cool.
"Ahem! You newbie witch!" I was surprised by her presence, it's Erika with Rina and Teresa.
I simply hide the note at my pocket and smile at them.
"H-hi!"
"Tsk! Don't you ever flirt señorito, he's MINE!" she's aggressive huh!
She didn't own him anyway.
I never respond, I ignore them and head outside but suddenly she pull my hair.
"Ouch! Let my hair go!" I writ while holding my temper. She won't like it I'll get mad, she really won't.
"HE.IS.MY.BOY!" she claim and I hear a laugh from two girls that echoes annoyingly.
After that she let me go.
I fixed myself especially my hair before going out the comfort room.
That was a rough and a busy day for me, I almost give up.
I sigh!
I'm sitting at the bench near the waterfalls.
"What's bothering you?" somebody asked me- ahm! It's Raze actually.
I check the time, it's already 9:20pm.
Do I look fine? He occupied the space at the Tapoila metal 3 seater swing chair, one meter away from me.
~HOURS EARLIER~
"Witch! Wash the dishes without using dishwasher!" she commanded.
"That's your job!" I calmy complain.
"I WANT YOU TO DO THAT!" she really love yelling, that sucks.
I want to complain but I can't even say a word.
It supposed to be my rest time, I'm tired cleaning the whole 2nd floor of the mansion, it's wide as hell plus I'm still tired from my yesterday's task.
I wash the bunch of dishes though my hands came from hell and all of my parts were about to break. I need rest but how? I'm surrounded by new people and I don't want them to see my weak part.
"O-MY-GUSH! WHAT DID YA DO?" she's stagey. Tsk!
"Yeah right! A clumsy newbie witch!" her friends pander like Erika was the victim.
The glass fell on the floor and turn into pieces, there's a drops of blood and there, I realize that it was mine.
Everyone panicked but Erika put all the blame to me.
"This is your assigned task Erika!" mother Sharn was mad.
"Come on! You know me for years ma'am Sharn. She insist to do that! Don't blame me!" She yell while looking at me like saying 'Try to say something against me or else you're dead' so I shut up.
Everything went back to normal, everyone go back to their works and I clean all the broken glasses, expensive plates and glasses were on the floor.
It cost a lot, how much will left when I get my salary.
I'm sure,I'll pay for this.
It's Erika's fault, she pushed me on purpose.
"What happened earlier?" mother Sharn asked me, she said that she'll talk tome after I clean all the mess and I'm here in front of her.
"It was her mother Sharn, she's a sweet beast. A beast that pretends to be a beautiful princess." I answer and sigh.
She look at my eyes then at my hands.
"This must be hurt" she hold my hands, she sounds sad while looking at it.
"Far from my intestines mother Sharn" I joke and hide my hands at my back.
It's just a tiny cuts. It doesn't matter, she didn't broke a bone so it's fine.
"Don't worry, I'll warn her" That's pretty assuring.
After lunch I took good care and feed my babies, I mean Raze pets. They're very lovely.
After that I jump into Erika's attitude again.
I clean the whole comfort room, we the workers only use that.
