Baby
The continous calling by someone was what what woke me up from my dreamful sleep.
I hugged the soft pillow, not wanting to open my eyes and stand up from this bed.
"Please you have to wake up now, young madam is dressed for school and wants you to dress up so you can go back to your home. Wake up now, you really have to wake up right now, Hello hellooo,"
I sighed and opened my left eye to see the maid, another maid not the other one, standing in front of me in her maid dressing of white pinafore over a black dress.
I opened the other eyes and yawned.
She held a new clothe, folded neatly. For me?
"Goodmorning, please get up and take your bathe, dress up and come downstairs, call the landline once you are done so i'll lead you to the sitting room, young madam wants to take you back to your home," she said and dropped the neatly folded clothes on the bed with a new slippers on top it, then walked out.
I yawned again and cuddled the pillow.
Ah. I don't want to get up here. This bed look like heaven.
But hah! I have to hurry up, I wouldn't want to anger my angel who saved me.
I sprang up from the bed and rushed to the ensuite.
I brushed and had my bathe, using the hand shower this time, I wouldn't want to waste time drying my hair.
Soon, I was out.
I layed out the clothes.
Pink undies, jean high-waist trouser (hah! Jina will kill me if she sees this one on me) and a black shirt.
Ahh they are too expensive.
I wish I could drop back this trouser. It's too expensive and Jina would kill me for wearing high-waist things. Even the top is up! and would show my stomache.
No, I can't wear this things.
I went to the landline and pressed thripple five, double six and a seven.
I placed it on my ear and a voice came in.
"Maid Bamie,"
"Pleaseee I don't want this clothes brought to me. I can't wear them," I said.
"Which type of clothes do you want?"
"A trouser that is not very tight and not a high waist, a long sleeve top that will cover my stomache, thank you," I said.
"Alright, it would be brought to you shortly," she said and the line ended.
Did she just say shortly? Do they sell clothes in this big house?
To avoid anyone seeing the cane mark on my arm, I rushed back into the ensuite and wore my jacket ontop the towel I tied on my body . It was then I remembered that I have a phone.
I searched on my trouser pockets and found it. I had left it inside my trouser pockets and hung the trouser on the rail.
I booted it. It has switched off. When it booted on, it cried of 5% batthery low.
I sighed and walked out of the ensuite with it.
Just then the door opened and the maid who brought the first clothes, brought another clothes.
"Here, this is your choice," she said. I took it and unfolded it and it was just what I told them.
Ah.. better.
"Hurry up, now please," she said and walked out.
I quickly pulled on the undies, followed by the jean trouser and black long sleeve shirt.
I went to the full length mirror beside the dressing table and stared at my self.
I look expesivee.
Second time im wearing something so expensive.
I repacked my hair and did the fringe well.
I slide my feet into the cute slippers, then took my phone and went to the landline. I called the same number, telling the same Bamie that im done.
In a minute, the door opened and the same maid walked in.
"Are you Bamie?" I asked.
"Yes," she said.
I was about walking out when I remember my phone. I rushed back and picked it up.
She led in front and I followed behind her, with my eyes all over every place.
Everywhere smelt of unfinishing wealth.
I carefully took my steps on the staircase with care so I wouldn't fall. I can even see my shadowy reflection on the tiles.
I finally got down to the large sitting room and she led towards another small step, climbing it, I found myself in front of a long dinning room with expensive table and chairs that look like it was made of gold.
Lala, and her mom sat down while three maids stood a bit away, in line with their heads facing down. Bamie joined them.
Different types of meals, fruits and drinks were on the table.
I bowed to them, bowed and bowed again. Lala's mom frightens me.
"Goodmorning ma'am, goodmorning," I greeted, and bowed again.
Lala smiled while her mom just stared at me from my head to my toes. from my toes to my head.
"What's your name young lady?" Lala's mom asked.
"Baby ma'am. Baby Edric," I said and she looked at Lala. Lala smiled.
"I told you mom. She told me her name is Baby, just baby, her real name."
Her mom turned to me again.
"Lala had told me about you last night and this morning too, and she said she just liked you without knowing why," Lala's mom said.
I bowed. "Im grateful for her kindness ma'am. I could have slept outside last night, if she hadn't helped me and brought me to your home ma'am. Thank you," I said and bowed again.
She nodded.
"Well, my daughter here have never accepted to have a personal maid and if she indeed likes you then I would like to enploy you as her personal maid at least to save you from the hands of your foster mom," Lala's mom said.
I gasped happily.
"I would really love to be her personal maid ma'am, Thank you," I said bowing severally.
Being a personal maid to this beautiful girl here and living twenty four hours a day here would be soo amazing.
She smiled, including Lala.
"Well, you might accept but your foster mom and dad would have to approve it. But don't worry, I know how to do it," she said with an assuring smile.
Wow, I love this woman.
Now I think Alisa was wrong when she said that all wealthy people are wicked and heartless to the poor and I believed her.
This people don't seem so. They are the most caring people i've ever met.
"Go with the maids, they know what to do about your own food," she said.
I bowed. "Thanks ma'am,"
"Baby, i'll be waiting in the car for you," Lala said.
I bowed to her and went away with two maids of the maids, one is Bamie.
They led me to the largest and well equipped kitchen i've ever seen in all my life.
Two cooks in apron were there, arranging pots and plates.
"Mrs Hania, Give her own food in a foodflask," Bamie said to the chef woman.
She looked at me and I bowed to her.
I should. She is so older than me.
She smiled and put the food in a pretty flask for me.
She stretched it to me and I took it.
"Thanks ma'am," I said and bowed.
She smiled. "What's your name dear? you look so respecful," she said.
"My name is Baby," I said. She raised her brows.
I know she is suprised. Everyone who hears my name for the first time does. It's not a new thing to me.
The maids looked astonished too.
"Wow, is that your real name or your nickname?" Mrs Hania asked.
"My real name ma'am," I said.
"Wow, very sweet one," she said.
I bowed. "Thanks ma'am."
I finally left the kitchen and headed downstairs with Bamie.
We walked outside and I saw that same car of last night.
"Bye Baby, hope we see you again," Bamie said with a smile.
"I will try and come back cos I like here, Lala and her mom," I told her with my own smile too.
"You will love it here, please come back ok," she said.
I smiled. "I will," I said and walked to the car while she walked back into the house.
The door was opened by the same driver, Lala's driver.
I bowed to him before entering.
Why would someone so older than me be opening the car door for me.
He closed the door.
I looked at Lala, with her hair fallen over her shoulders and a sweet looking eyelass on her eyes.
Her lips is just so cute. She was licking a lolipop.
Ah! Lala you are beautiful.
It was then that I saw the school uniform on her body.
This school uniform is like Rocks high school uniform. It's rocks high school. The school batch on her left chest is written, rocks high school!
Wait a second Baby, you must be dreaming again.
I had met a rocks high student! first time I have met a rocks high sudent!! oh my God! that school, so expensiveeee and filled with idols and models!
"Rocks high school," I had no idea when I said it.
She smiled.
"What about it?" she asked.
I shook my head. "Nothing at all but it's my first time to meet someone who schools there." I said.
"So are you happy to?" she asked.
"Yes, but im more happy that Im going to be employed in your home, I like it," I said.
She smiled. "Im pretty annoying sometimes, can you bear it when I do?" she asked.
"Ofcourse, all my life, i've lived to bear things, both pains and maltreatment. I'd rather bear yours than my foster mother," I said.
She smiled.
"Why did you re order a change of clothes, weren't those ones prettier?" she asked.
I shook my head. "Nooo they are, but I haven't worn something so tight and show off. Jina, my fostermom will kill me if she see me wearing them," I said.
She smiled. She must love smiling alot.
Only her smile would make me wanna live with her. She's so beautiful, a replica of her mom.
"So my mom and I would come either today or tomorrow to see your foster parents, if they accept for you to be my personal maid, you'll go with us but if they don't, I'll get your contacts and we can be getting intouch," she said.
Wow, I can't believe a a rich and beautiful girl would want to have my contact so we can be communicating.
But it's better I live with you and see you everyday than communicating wity you on phone. I won't be able to see your beautiful face.
We soon got to the front of our old looking small house.
The car stopped.
"Thanks ma'am, I really appreciate," she said but then I remembered the money.
Im still going to stay outside. I've not gotten the money.
Just then Lala opened her cute looking purse laced with gold chains.
She brought out notes of won and stretched it to me.
"There's an extra, use it to make your hair look more good, it's too messy, then buy yourself some new clothes," she said.
Wow, I instantly felt like hugging her but I know I can't. She's too expensive for me to hug. So I bowed to her.
"Thanks so much ma'am, Im so grateful," I said.
She nodded.
"Go now, I need to go to school, it's getting late," she said.
I bowed. "Bye ma'am." I said.
"Please don't forget to come ma'am," I said and bowed again before stepping out of the car and closed the door.
It drove away.
I felt excited. I calculated the money and found 25,000won for just me!
I put it inside my jacket pocket and covered it well then I headed to the house with the flask and Jina's money in my hand.
I opened the door and went in.
Jina is a very lazy woman.
She haven't even bathe the twins talk more of dressing them to school.
They were just running around the sitting room with their sleeping wears.
"Baby is back!!!" Jeon shouted and rushed to me in a hug.
Sara rolled her eyes and headed to Jina's room.
"Baby you are back, what's this you are holding? money? food? where did you get them from? did you sleep outside? I was so worried about you Babyyy," Jeon filled my ears wity questions.
Jina came out with Sara beside her with her arms crossed. Jina held the cane.
"Baby, did you come back with my money?" Jina thundered.
"Yes-" I was saying but Jeon answered it.
"Yes she did mom," he said.
"Jeon get away from here this minute before I use this cane on you," Jina hurled at Jeon and he ran away.
"Let me have it," she said.
I gave the money to her. She counted it and saw it's complete.
She gave me a suspicious look.
"How did you get this whole money? have you gone stealing people's money?" she said.
"Nooo, I didn't. Someone gave it to me and she promised to come by today or tomorrow to give you more," I said.
She narrowed her eyes. "Really? who is she?" she asked, sounding interested.
"She's very rich, you'll see her soon," I said.
"When she comes then. And what is that you are holding?" she asked.
"Foodflask," I said.
"Let me have it," she said and I gave it to her.
She opened it to behold the richman's breakfast.
I closed it back. "She gave you this too?"
I nodded.
"Now dress this kids for school, take them to school and come and tie the beads and take them to sell," she said and walked away with the flask.
Sara followed her.
Jeon came back to me.
"Do you know it's dad that took the money? it wasn't even all the money he took, he took just half but mom just wanted to punish you," Jeon said.
"And she did," I said.
"Sorry about it. I like your new clothe," he said.
I smiled. "Thanks, come and take your bathe," I said and carried him.
"Sara!" I called out to the replica of her mom.
I can't wait to see Lala again.

Didi Chung
"Your mittens Kim ah, I finally completed it today," I said and brought out the bag of mittens to her.
She rolled her eyes.
"For how many weeks Didi, you are such a lazy human being!" she said and carried the bag and began leaving.
I smiled. "I know, i know, thanks for bearing with me Kim ah, don't forget to come again and bring me a customer too while coming, thank you!!" I said aloud as she walked away.
I smiled and closed the door.
I fell on a couch and sighed.
Today is tuesday, I need to go to the market..
I stood up and went to my kitchen. It was smelling of left over food, spoilt.
I closed my nose.
I don't even have the strength to clean here.
But I did clean it up the kitchen, then I had my bathe, dressed up into my favourite gown and headd to the market.
At the market, I know how to prize well. I beat them hot there.
"How much is the tomatoes?" I asked.
"5, 000won" the seller said.
"I will give you 2,000won" I said.
"No go away!" she said rudely.
I rolled my eyes and as I went away, I mumbled, "Her tomatoes just fall,"
And they immediately.
She began wailing.
I smiled.

I came back from market and was going to open the door when I heard my name being called. I turned and it's Bora, a girl from the neigbourhood.
"Bora, how are you?" I asked.
"Im fine Didi, I came to tell you that while you went out, some men in cars came and they were asking about you. They were taking pictures of your house and whispering lowly among themselves," Bora said.
"What? men in cars, asking about me and taking pictures of this house?"
"Yes Didi. I heard them talk about coming tomorrow," she said.
I inhaled. "Alright, thanks Bora. Whoever they are, I would wait for them tomorrow," I said.
"Alright. Did you buy anything for me from the market?" Bora asked.
I smiled and brought out two Apple from the bag.
"Here," I stretched it to her.
She took it, grining. "Thanks Didi," she said then walked away.
I went in and the room was dark due to the closed windows.
"Light," I said and a ball of light appeared and followed beside me.
Who are the men in cars, taking pictures of this house?
I remembered what my grandfather told me before he died.
