The familiar voice has woken me, and it aroused the fear that I feel.
I was too quick to open my eyes and look at him, who was standing by the door. I got up and fixed myself at the edge of the bed and did not say a thing. After a few more minutes, two women came in.
"Fix her and make sure that she looks like what the boss likes." It was his only words before he turned around and left the room, leaving the two women beside me.
The other one smiled politely while she approached me while the other one was busy taking out a thing in her bag.
"Miss, I am sorry, but you have to take your shower so we could prepare you. By the way, we have already ordered a meal for you, so after you take your shower, you can eat while we prepare your attire for tonight." The woman said as she tapped my shoulder. I felt like she was sorry for me, or maybe I was just too sentimental at the moment.
I just noted and gestured to walk in the washroom when she spoke again. "I am Nadia. You can call me Nadia, because from now on I am sure that I will always be around you while this lady with me is Faby."
I turned my gaze and smiled at the two of them before I finally walked in the shower room. Although they were kind, I don't feel the ambience of the place. Fear and the agonists are still running through my veins. I haven't figured out how to escape yet and it worries me.
When I opened the shower and the water began to fall on my body, I felt comfort. The cold water seems to remind me to come back to my senses and think cleverly.
I intended to stay under it for 10 minutes while I was figuring things out before I finally decided to shut it off and walk out the shower room and as the woman named Nadia said, the food was ready at the bedside table.
"Please suit yourself." She said again while she was sitting at the couch near the table while sipping a cup of coffee. When I turned my gaze towards the other woman, who she introduced as Faby, she was still busy with the makeup kit right in front of her. She barely smiled ever since they came in, so I could tell that she is not the friendly type.
Following Nadia's instruction, I went to the table and began to dig in. I have to be prepared for my plans later. While eating, I acted innocently and asked.
"I haven't seen the big boss yet. If in case later will be the very first time to meet with him. What kind is he, if you don't mind?" I asked politely.
Faby cleared her throat before she spoke fearfully. Her expression made me regret asking so I quickly followed up my question.
"Oh, sorry for asking. You don't need to answer, I shouldn't have asked about that."
"Well, thank you for understanding Miss, we are really not allowed to talk about the big boss to you.:
After Nadia explained that I confirmed my guess. The boss might be someone who is so cruel, just by the expression of Nadia that I witnessed.
I continued to eat then went to brush my teeth from the made ready toiletries that I saw at the wash roam. This room is too expensive looking, I am not sure if I am in a mansion or a hotel room because I was unconscious when I was taken here, I only woke up when we arrived in front of this room where I am being locked up.
"Come and sit comfortably." Nadia instructed when I walked out. So I did it without saying a word again.
They began to fix me while I was staring at the big mirror right in front of me. Most people around me say that I am beautiful, and I can be more presentable when I am groomed. I didn't believe them because I do not see that beauty in me. I mean, I was too busy to mind how I look. Ever since I was young, I worked so hard to help the family and to impress my parents. For me, helping financially is what gets their attention because money is all talk to them.
I didn't even hear my mom say that I am beautiful, needless to say how she looks down on me.
"You are really a Princess!" Finally, I heard the woman named Faby exclaim after I was done being fixed. I stared at her, surprised because I didn't expect her to be a little bit appreciative.
"I told you, she is really a Princess. It just needs her to be fixed." Nadia exclaimed excitedly. They gave me smiles because for the first time we felt like someone really appreciated how I look after I was placed with makeup and dressed nicely.
I should be happy to hear that I am beautiful, and I look like a Princess, but as soon as I realized that every preparation that was made for me is for the big boss, I suddenly became sad. Sad that this beauty is only for sale.
"Smile again. I have to take a picture of you with that smile. You are so beautiful. Give me your remembrance of your first smile." Faby requested when she noticed that I suddenly withdrew my smile. However, I couldn't take it back anymore because the filling has totally switched from being flattered to scared.
"Come on, it will just be a smile. Let her take a photo of you. It will be our only remembrance from you. Things will depend on if you stay here or not after you meet the big boss." Nadia seconded. I was taken aback of what she said. Will I be dispatched when he doesn't like me? If that's the case, then I can leave this place if I will disgust him, right?!
Because they are kind to me, I forced a smile. What do I know if this will really be our first and last meeting? When I began to smile and realized that I had a chance to leave this place, my smile was Heartfelt, just then that the flash off the camera was released.
"You see, I told you you're too pretty when you smile. Now get yourself ready because you will be fetched in a minute." Faby said while she put her mobile phone back in her pocket.
Nadia came near me too and held my hand before she said sincerely.
"Good luck… We'll pray for you. Try your very best to impress the big boss and never ever plan to run away or escape because you will be in a bad shape. Many women have done that already, and we haven't heard from them since they left this mansion!"
I was frozen when I heard Nadia. What does she mean that they haven't heard from anyone? Does that mean that I am not the only woman who was taken here forcibly by the beat bosses' men?
My eyes opened wide fearfully. I didn't expect those reminders from the makeup woman, Nadia. When I glanced at Faby beside her, her face was gloomy as well, and it gave me creeps even more!
What the hell am I into?!
