Bossy maid
She's the boss,I'm the maid
Prologue
Beneath every tough surface is a wounded soul.
I woke up to the sound of my alarm ringing. I snoozed it and sat up on my bed fully awake, not that I slept deeply before. Who would by the way??
I sighed and stood up, heading to the bathroom. Today is my last day here, the contract I signed would be annulled and I don't have where after today, not even enough to stay on my own.
My parents died eight years ago and I was abducted and abused by my parents' killer for five years till luck shone on me one night and I escaped.
I began working as a maid so I can fend for myself and save up for college to achieve my dreams and bring her parents death to justice.
I wore my uniform and went to the next compound where my boss lives.
I opened the gate and took a look around, scrutinizing the environs.
" Hurry she is around" my colleagues hurried about, performing their duties and keeping a safe distance from me. They're all scared of me especially after I taught one of them a lesson. You won't blame me, he needed to be out in his place.
"What's this paper bag doing here?" I turned to the one nearest to me.
" I-I..... " He stuttered.
My phone rang at that moment, saving him from my tongue lash. I glared at him before answering the call.
"Hello Mr Jeff" I said into the phone
"Yes Courtney, I've come to understand your tenure would be over today. You have anywhere in mind? " He asked.
" No I don't"
" That's a relief then" he sighed audibly into the phone.
"How's that a relief?" I wondered.
"Gleez's international company needs a maid for the CEO and I recommended you. You okay with it?"
" Yes sure" I answered quickly, this opportunity mustn't pass me by.
"Cool" he replied and hung up then the reality of what just happened sunk in.
The CEO of Gleez's??? Someone who isn't to be tempered with? Someone who's reputation is uncalled for?? He'll be my new boss??
Well no turning back, I got no choice.
The day ended quickly and I packed my bag, preparing myself for the next day ahead, another phase of my life journey.
Hi my name is Courtney and I'm twenty three years old.
Two ice meets without fire, who'll melt first?
What happens when her dark past threatens both of them?
Join me, let's take a ride together in this story.
