Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

BATHTUB CHRONICLES

  I woke up to the loud bang from the door. I didn't realize I had fallen fast asleep in the tub. Good thing I didn't die in there. 

" What's happening?" I grumpily whispered as I tried to get out of the tub. My eyes were not fully opened as I was still sleepy. 

The bathroom door suddenly opened as I was about to get out of the tub. I jumped in surprise, and my foot slipped, and I fell flat on the floor. 

I tried to shield myself from falling, but my butt hit the cold floor very hard, hitting my chin on one of the drawers. I used my hand to stop my head from hitting the floor. 

"Huurrh," I screamed in pain. 

" Why did it take so long to get to the door?" His cold voice echoed through the walls of the bathroom. 

I started crying instead of answering when I realized my situation. I am lying completely naked on the floor. My legs were widely spread in the most embarrassing state while he stood before me, looking handsome in his business suit.

He looked like he didn't care since he was still standing there, not planning to give me any privacy. I woke up to the loud bang from the door. I didn't realize I had fallen fast asleep in the tub. Good thing I didn't die in there. 

"Get out of here now!" I screamed while trying to get up. It was hard because my body was slippery, probably from the long hours of soaking myself in the tub with bubbles. 

Ultimately, I wrapped my hands around my body to cover my boobs and placed my legs in an uncomfortable position to protect my private part. 

" This is my house, woman. You can't tell me what to do or ask me to leave." He took a few steps to get to where I was sitting. Then he stretched out his hands to help me up. He gave me a cold stare when I didn't move. 

I gave him my hand, and he pulled me and dropped me in the shower. He gave me a robe to cover up. 

" Finish up quickly. We need to talk." He said before leaving me without a second glance. 

Did he not look at me again? 

I felt irritated as I watched him close the door behind him. I looked at the mirror in front of me and checked my body. I had curves in all the right places. I have always had complete confidence in my body until now. 

" Don't I look hot enough?" I looked at myself again as I thought about how unaffected he seemed when looking at me. 

Wait. Do I want him to lust over me? What exactly am I thinking? Something must be wrong with my head. Maybe a part of my brain was affected by the fall. 

I rechecked the mirror to ensure no injury in my head. And so what if he doesn't find me attractive? 

" It's his loss and cup of hot tea." I hissed and walked over to the shower stall carefully to avoid another fall for the second time. I wouldn't want to die from hitting my head on the toilet seat! I woke up to the loud bang from the door. I didn't realize I had fallen fast asleep in the tub. Good thing I didn't die in there. 

I had a tough time picking something to wear. Before now, I couldn't choose because I barely had enough options in my wardrobe, but now…

I have way too many options that I don't even know where to start!

What a beautiful twist!

My life had a four-hundred-and-fifty-degree turn overnight! Or even more. 

All thanks to my stupid foster father. He must have thought he had rendered my life useless and miserable by selling me off. Little did he know he had just done me a huge favor! 

I have long dreamed of leaving their house but couldn't because I had nowhere to go. They control every part of my life, and it was fruitless trying to escape their clutches. 

I never thought he would give me such an easy way out. Now, this life is much better than I imagined without them. 

I kept scanning the clothes, trying to get something to wear. Sure, they looked beautiful and expensive, but they were conservative and just too plain for my taste. Who am I to complain when I can get them for free? 

In the end, I chose a simple black backless gown that ended slightly on top of my knee. 

I smiled at my reflection in the mirror. I'm not used to this kind of clothes, but I can't deny that they look pretty. It just doesn't fit my personality. 

I once worked as a waitress in a clubhouse. The clothes here are far better than what I always wore when I had shifts. Those uniforms were usually skin-tight, revealing, and very tiny, with little or no fabric to cover my private parts. But I shrugged it off. Instead, I went to the shoe shelve to pick something nice for myself. 

" Hmm…" I used my hands to scan my various options while deciding which pair would match my dress. 

" Anything here will do. They all look nice," I said. 

I never imagined a day like this in my life! 

I grabbed a pair of strappy silver heels and felt so happy when they fit both legs perfectly. I raised my legs and wiggled each foot in front of the mirror. They suddenly looked prettier with the shoes on. 

I smiled as I twirled in front of the full-length mirror. When I was satisfied with my look, I walked to the dresser to blow dry my hair. I used the tongs on the dressing table to make beautiful curls that fell perfectly on my shoulder. 

I felt so happy and fulfilled, but my forehead scrunched when my eyes suddenly caught something on my right jaw!
