Marvin pov
I was so having fun in this contract Elora signed, this is the moment to make her have the taste of her own medicine. I sat at the poolside having a cool time and waiting to be served an apple juice from Elora.
"wow, this is so much fun".I said and then I saw her coming closer to me with the juice and she frowned her face, I ignore her and I love seeing her look like this, she came closer and place the juice on the little table beside me, she turn to leave and I called her back."I didn't ask you to go".I took the juice and point it to her." sip it".
"why?". she asked surprisingly and I scoffs.
"Are you asking me that? do you think I trust you enough for you to serve me a drink and then allow you to go like that without having a taste of what you serve me?"
"oh, so you are scared that I might mix a little substance into it?".
"of course, I don't trust you, now have a sip of it ".she hesitated for a while before she took the juice from me and sip from it.
"satisfied now!" she said angrily and walk away and I smirk after her. An hour later, I assembled all the workers in the house and they gathered around the living room.
"I called you out here because I have an important announcement to make, "I said standing in Infront of them as their heads bow to the ground then I look up to see Elora staring at us from the stairs, I smile and turn my gaze back to the workers, unfortunately, nanny has already left for the supermarket." so as I was saying, who among you here clean my room?"I asked and two maids raise their hands."good, I am relieving you two of your duty for a week" I said and they raise their faces to me surprisingly before bowing back their faces to the ground." yes, you heard me, someone will be filling in for a week for that, so who among you is in charge of washing and ironing my clothes?"I asked and one of them raise her hand." okay, I am relieving you for a week because someone will be filling in for that. Okay, you can move along now".I said and they rushed back to their duty post, I raise to see the angry look on Elora's face and I was pleased with it, then she left for her room
Elora pov
I rushed into my room angrily
"that animal! how dare he give me some much work to do, I hate you, Marvin!"I grunt angrily and sat on the bed"Try to keep cool Elora, is just a week, a day removed from it this week, will make it six days remaining " I said to myself and lay back flat on the bed staring at the ceiling. The next day, in school, Nathan and I sat down at the library reading quietly with other students around.
"so how is it going with Marvin?" he asked.
"believe me you don't want to know".
"is it that bad?"
"worst than hell, I don't want to talk about it right now". I said and we continue reading, then a familiar voice interrupted us rudely.
"why are you here?" Marvin asked angrily and we raise our faces to him to meet his angry look, I stare around the library and noticed the students looking frightened and murmuring against each other, then I turn my gaze back to him
"Can you at least keep your voice down, this is a library for God's sake and it required quietness"?I said calmly and quietly.
"do I look like I care! You still haven't answered my question?". he yelled.
"Well, in case you don't know, this is a library and I came here to read and have a quiet moment ". I replied rudely.
"you! Come with me right now!"
"why?"
"don't make me repeat myself ".he muttered and I could see how serious he looks
"listen angry bird, this is school, and the rules do not say I have to serve you in school ".I said standing up and he grab my hand quickly.
"Well, I will refresh your memory with that, "he said and try to drag me away but Nathan grab the other of my hand preventing me from going with him.
"she is going nowhere with you," he said boldly and stood up from his seat, I could see the angry look they were giving each other."let go of her ".he warned and Marvin pull a little closer to him still holding my hand.
"How dare you! Who the hell do you think you are!"Marvin said angrily and Nathan scoffs.
"Listen, man, I am not going to exchange words with you because see this lady, she goes nowhere with you ". Nathan muttered angrily.
"And you think you can stop me? I don't have your time, but I will get you back on this later".
"I am not afraid of you Marvin, I know who you are and the background you came from, but that doesn't give you the right to treat people like trash". he said and I could see the angry look on his face and it became deep, but before I could say something he landed a hard punch on Nathan's face, he groans and fell on the floor releasing my hand, everyone gaps in shock including me.
"Nathan!".I voice out surprisingly.
"next time, you will know your place in this school,".he said angrily, I struggle to get lose of him to move to Nathan but he pull me back and dragged me out.
"let me go! Nathan!".I cried out and he continues to drag me along ignoring my struggle and screaming, we walk past students who glance at us surprisingly. finally, we arrived at the gym and he let go of my hand, I felt pain in my wrist
"How dare you! what do you think you are doing?! I yelled angrily.
"you be quiet! is barely two days since you sign the contract with me and you are already neglecting it".he yelled.
"I wasn't neglecting it, I stick to it, I practically do everything you ask of you ".I retort.
"oh really! You signed on that contract to be at my service 24 hours".
"Well, the school doesn't count on that".
it does! and you are going to stick with that from now on".I stare madly at him.
"you are no boss of me Marvin, you have no right whatsoever to control me around like a puppet, I am not your slave".I warned.
"Well, you became one the day you sign on that paper".
"to hell with it! I don't need your stupid apologies anymore!"I retort and he scoffs.
"is too late to back out, I owned you for a week and you will do as I have said" he yelled and walk away angrily, I grunt staring hard at him.
"you coward! I voice out angrily and then left to meet you with Nathan, I got to the library, but he wasn't there, I was told he left earlier, "I wonder where he went to".I said looking worried and I dial his number, it rings for a while before it was picked." hello Nathan, where are you? am in the library, I was told you left ".I said and his voice came out from the other end of the phone.
"yes, are you okay? he asked feeling concerned.
"of course I am fine and you, are you okay? You should be worried about yourself, where are you?".
"am at the school clinic".
"Okay, I am coming there right now".I hung up and left the library.
