Jason and Sophia stood up immediately. Sophia sighed almost loudly as her hand was freed. She waved it in the air wincing softly, glaring at Jason who was trying to keep a straight face as Angel looked at them suspiciously.
"Angel....I thought you were asleep" , Jason said but Angel just folded her arms. "You know how clumsy Sophia is. She dropped some clothes so I just decided to help her pick them up"
"I can SEE that" Angel snapped. "And you...how dare you look into his eyes like a slut. I knew you'd try to seduce my Jason the smallest chance you'd get"
Sophia was boiling within her. "A real Slut wouldn't even look in his direction if you ask me. Neither can I. So don't get yourself worked up that I'm taking 'your' boyfriend away from you"
Jason just shrugged. "Angel you know nothing can ever happen between us. Common. I mean look at her. She's not even my type"
That last statement made the tip of Sophia's ears burn in anger and shame.
"Baby. If I'd wanted to cheat on you I'd look for a girl with class. And Sophia is not even on the list of middle-class"
Angel looked at Sophia, almost smiling with satisfaction as she saw the shame on her face. The silent anger. The tears she held back in her eyes.
Jason looked at her. 'Thought you could hold in the tears much longer Sophia. Now you have no choice but to cry them out and accept defeat' He thought but to their surprise, Sophia just smiled. She bent and picked up the last cloth on the floor and dropped it in the basket. Then she rudely shoved the basket into Jason's hands. Jason had no choice but to hold the basket. He and Angel looked at her....surprised.
"That's your laundry" Sophia said to Angel. "And you know what...Jason made me to realize that in this house....I am of low class. I'm not his type. But everything happens for a reason. And I'm here today as maid because of a reason" She then looked down at her hand which had gotten bruised up. Now it was bleeding. She smiled at it. "You hate me for a reason Angel. You want me to work all day and all night for a reason. And why's that"
Jason looked at Angel.
Sophia walked up to her and they shoot daggers at each other with their eyes. "Because you can't seem to accept the fact that no matter how thin or scruffy or dirty I get....I'll always be more beautiful than a b***h like you and I'll always get the attention I want. Whenever I want it and however"
