Yesterday was her wedding so she won't going to work today Anna walked the downstairs, she went to kitchen she saw woman who's at her middle-aged standing near the counter preparing breakfast.

'who is she' Anna thought.

Anna walked towards the woman.

Mrs Maya heard foot steps coming towards her, she turned to see Anna approaching her. "good morning Mrs Dalton" Mrs maya greeted.

"Good morning you are?" Anna replied politely.

"I am maya, am the cooker I prepare the food."

"oh , I am Anna."

"Yes, I know Mrs Dalton, congratulation on your wedding" Mrs Maya said.

" Thank you, just called Anna." Anna smiled.

"Mrs maya can you do me a favor, I should prepare the breakfast."

"Anna you can also call me Maya, is my duty to make breakfast you go and sit at dinning, I will be done in some minute." Mrs Maya smile.

Reluctantly Anna left the kitchen to the dining room she love cooking since she was young even when she use to stay with Emily she never allowed Emily to cook. 

Anna went to sit at the dinning, looking around, while looking around she see James descending the stairs. when he reach her dinning she greeted him. "Good morning."

"Morning," he settled himself on a sit across Anna. Mrs Maya served the food

They both ate in silence. after, breakfast James left to his study.

When Anna finished her breakfast she strolled around the penthouse admiring the beauty and the decorations. she moved to be pool side, sat on a chair near the pool, with many thought going on her mind.

How everything happens so fast she never imagine herself marrying this year all she thinks about is how to get money for her daddy kidney transplant, but then destiny changes everything in weeks her daddy surgery had been done, and, now she is stock in a contract marriage.

After sitting at the pool side for a while Anna left the pool and went to the kitchen Mrs Maya was seated on stood in her own world. "Mrs Maya are you also Bored" Anna's voice brought Mrs Maya back.

Mrs Maya smile "Mrs Dalton why are you here aren't supposed to be with your husband."

"Workaholic, in the study." Anna said

"Mrs Maya do you have a child?" Anna asked.

"Maya smile I have a son John he is studying abroad."

"Wow that's great." Anna was amazed.

"You missed him right, yes I do"

"Maya how long have you be here?"

"For years, Since Mr James was young, I used to work at Dalton Mansion before I was transferred here."

Mrs Maya and Anna chatted for long. when they later realised it time form lunch.

"What will you be cooking for the lunch" Anna asked.

"Sandwich, matzo ball soup, corned beef, crispy buffalo, and chicken Caesar. That's what i am cooking for lunch."

"This time we cooking together, I won't allow you to send me away."

Mrs maya smiled.

It was fun Anna enjoy talking to Mrs Maya she is a nice and a good companion to talk to.she told her more about Mr James what he likes,and what he doesn't like, he don't always eat breakfast, he is fast in getting angry, he has bad temper.
