"When should I start the work as your maid" Adinah asked
" Really, you are damn serious about this" he said as he stopped towering over her and took a step away from her
" But being my maid as lots of consequences, like you not leaving my house, till I say you can, I love my maid being straight and obedient, I love my maid, minding her business, and not being too perky, my maid won't be allowed to see through my privacy, and as I the boss behave like one, my maid must behave like the one that she is, and anything I say as the boss, is final" Lucius states
" I can obtain to all those other rules, but not that of staying in your house all day, I have siblings at home" she said
" Then I don't care, want to be my maid or be your siblings Nanny, it yours to decide red" he said disappearing from her sight
'is this man really an human' she asked herself again.
She would need to discuss this with her siblings first, her siblings where understanding, they would surely understand her ' she taught.
She quickly picked up her purse from where she sat earlier, her eyes searched for the gate keeper wanting to apologize to him, but he wasn't their again, 'maybe some other day' she taught as she left the building

A pair of sapphire eyes, with amusement shinning brightly from it, watched the lady from one of the balcony's of the mansion as she walked out of it
This pair of sapphire eyes belonging to none other than the unnerving Lucius Brown', as he sipped on the red colored wine, stylishly comparing it to the lady's hair color, which shared the same color with the wine
He stared at his palm, and a smile not reaching his eyes formed on his lips "why are you different red" he whispered, as he lit up a cigarette, and puffed it smoke to the starry night
*. *. *.
"Come play with mummy wil ya" the crazy accent of his step mom rang in the little boy's ear
He watched as is step mom sprawled herself naked on the bed, with lust filled wife
'why would dad have to take the witch as his wife after mother's death'' he would ask himself
Knowing the merciless spank he would get from his step mom if he didn't obey, he quickly walked up to her
"Now lick Mama" she said disgustingly, but the boy just stood, even though he knew what she meant, it felt really disgusting to him "I said lick me, you illegitimate son of offfa bitch" she screamed as she dug the innocent boy's face into her .... mercilessly
An horrible growl pierced through the mansion, no one dared to search where it came from, because the workers of the mansion knew who it was already
In one of the luxurious, darkest room in the mansion, Lucius sat on his bed, as he held his head in pain, sweat dripped down his forehead, and covered his whole body, his body shuddered greatly, still holding on his aching head.
When he finally calmed himself down, his cold sapphire eyes shown brightly in pure hate "I won't leave a single soul out of this, I would make all of them who did this to me pay" he vowed
*. *. *.
"Then it means you won't be coming back again sis" the voice of a little boy popped out as he hugged is elder sister
"I would, I would try speaking with my new boss" Adinah said cleaning her tears as she hugged her cry baby cute little brother . Adinah eyes moved towards her younger sister who pretended as if she was fine, but she could see how many times she had used her hands to wipe the tears off from her eyes
"Drusie" Adinah called her by the nickname her parents used on Drusillia " or should I call you 'Sillia honey' just like mom would" tears rolled down Adinah's face, as she remembered her mom
" I hate you Dinah, I hate you momma's Dean" Drusillia sobbed as she ran into her sister embrace
It was a very heart warming scene, seeing the siblings melted in each other's warm embrace "promise to come back and not leave us like mom and dad" Drusillia said as she made a pinky bet with her elder sister with Cyrus not leaving Adinah's embrace
"With the money I earn their, I promise to send you back to the high school you attended before" Adinah promised " wait, I withdrawed all my savings yesterday, so take it, just for the mean time, and spend it wisely" she took the bundle of money and gave it to Drusillia
"I would forever be grateful to you Addy" Drusillia said with a pout on her cute face as Adinah ruffled her hair
Adinah had to force Cyrus out of her embrace, as she bent to his height "Dad's Cyrie, My sweet Cy, Momma's Smiley Cyrus" she said to the sad Cyrus who didn't smile " Or should I say Smiley Waffle, Miley" she said as she tickled the boy getting giggles from him as his cute dimples didn't hide itself.
Their mother in her early life, was a lover of Miley Cyrus, that was how her little brother name came into existence, their little brother Cyrus would get angry at their mom for using another person nicknames on him.
"I promise to buy you the world best cookies" she said as her nose drifted towards the sky playfully " do you want your former school or you want to continue with the recent one"
"I prefer the recent one, I could play with Andrew and Blake anytime I want" he said smiling at his sister Andrew and Blake where Mrs Flora twins " But sincerely Addie, I would miss you" Cyrus pouted again
"I would too Hunny bunny" she said as she brought her hands to her purse " I bought this chocolate for you" she handed a squared sized box of chocolates to the little boy
"For me" he asked excitedly, and Adinah nodded as she stood up and faced Drusillia again
" Momma's Sillia, please be nice, don't go out late in the night, I want to come home meeting my Dru in her beautiful form, and be nice to Cyrus also okay" Adinah said and Drusillia eyed her, even though the sister looked identical, their characters and their hair color was what differentiate them, one was the blonde haired, courageous valiant sibling, why the other one was the red haired, timid and gentle sibling
"You are not my mom but elder sister with only two years older than me" Drusillia snapped
" If only you could chase the two years" Adinah whispered with a sigh
After Adinah was done lecturing her sibling, she took her baggage out of the house, and walked to the bus station
'Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all' she smiled as she remembered one her mom's favorite quote "Mom I hope you are proud of your daughter, wherever you are, dad, you are not left out too" she whispered as she quickly got into the bus
*. *. *.
She got to the same gate of the mansion and pressed the same alarm button of the other day, praying it wasn't the same gate keeper of the other day that would answer her, because she wasn't ready to face her guilt
She checked the time, and saw it was just 7:00 "quiet early" she praised herself and rubbed on her palm to bring her little warmth.
To her relief, it was another man, a middle aged man, who opened the gate for her, without questioning her, he let her in, with her given him a surprised looking
She stood still, looking at the old man intently as if wanting to ask him a question, the elderly man noticed her questioning gaze and gave her a questioning look
"Uhhn, I uhm actually saw a different gate keeper here yesterday, but I couldn't find him today" she said sheepishly
" He had to take a rest, he would be here tomorrow" the elderly man explained and she nodded slightly, thanking God Lucius hasn't fired the man, walking to the mansions entrance which she supposed led to the interior part 'this was her first time here, how could she get to Lucius on her own' she bit her lips, maybe her only option was the newly assigned gatekeeper
She walked back to the gate keeper and gave a gentle bow "I don't know where the boss might be, so can you please help me to him" she asked
" You don't need to know where the boss his, you could just wait for him in the living room" the man said
" Okay" she said as she went back to the main entrance which had a huge door, 'was she to knock" she locked around the door, and noticed a tiny button, which she supposed was some sort of alarm, her finger dived deep touching the button, she quickly retracted her hands after sensing nothing happened, the door doesn't even have an outer fvcking handle but the crazy button, how does the lifeless man comes and go out
After some minutes of giving up, and wanting to burst into tears, the door was pushed open from the inside and she caught two maids opening the door.
What caught her eyes next was the heaven on Earth interior part of the mansion, her mouth formed an O, what really amused her wasn't only the beautiful oval shaped pool in the supposed living room, but the artistic scenery that filled the living room, a wall in one part of the living room which had roses sitting on it, another wall which had the drawing of the sea in a starry night painted on it, beautiful chandeliers hung from here and their, a water fountain of a falling man and woman, gave water to the pool.
The water fountain gave this weird feeling, but it was really beautiful, she was ushered to sit in one of the room swinging sofa, till their boss attends to her, which she enjoyed and prayed he came somewhat late, her eyes got drowsy and she slept off
"We're all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness—and call it love—true love." – Robert Fulghum
