Chapter eight
I place the tray on the bedside table and rush out of my room.
The maid is still walking away.
I stay in front of my room and lean on the door, "Wait!"
The lady stops and looks back immediately.
I walk to her, "Why did you forget what you are supposed to do?"
The lady stares at me for a moment, her eyes wide and dark, " I_," she started only for her to bow her head, "I'm so sorry mistress. I've forgotten!" She apologized and went down on her knees immediately.
I sigh and feign anger. Gosh, I'm so good at pretending to be Hattie.
"The next time you try it, you will have a free ticket out of this place. Understand?"
She nods severally, " Yes mistress," she gets up and hurries out.
I smile and walk back to my room.
The salad looks so creamy and salivating.
I delve into it hungrily. I don't believe I am allowed to eat foods I have always wanted to taste.
This is so good.
