Lisa
“Theo, can you take me home now? I feel a little bit dizzy already.”
“Are you sure you don’t need to visit the clinic?” He asked with fear.
“I will when I feel okay; I just want to sleep already,” I said, yawning.
“You know what, let’s go to my ce, don’t say no, allow me to watch over you today, I want to take care of you, Lisa, don’t resist me, please, you are my girlfriend, and you should bother me.”
Theo is good with lines, and he gets me so quickly; his my dream man and I can’t wait for the day we say I do together, but I still fear something, his mom and the girl she epts Instead of me, I won’t me her, her son is so cute to be with any girl just like that.
“Hello, shall we?” He brought me back from my deep thoughts.
“Oh, sure.” My phone started ringing and checking the caller; it was Be; I hope all is well.
I answered the call saying, “Hi, girlfriend, hope you good?”
“There is fire on the mountain!” She said, panting on the phone.
“Okay, calm down, take a deep breath and talk to me; what happened? Did you do something bad at your workce?” I assumed maybe she pissed off Theo mother.
“Kyle, mom.” She said, and now I will say I am panicking, Theo gave me a look at what is happening, and I showed him a sign to be patient.
“What about her?”
“I got informed she wishes to see me alone; I shouldn’t tell Kyle, are you alone? Hope you’re not with Theo.” She sounds
troubled.
Why would Kyle mom want to see her alone?
I can’t tell Theo too because telling him is telling Kyle.
“Yes, I am with him, but I won’t tell; I believe you didn’t do anything wrong, assumed it’s about work and go; she is just human, okay, she won’t hurt you.” I encouraged her.
“Thanks, Lisa; I knew you would be the motivation I should be getting before going; bye then.”
“Bye.” I ended the call.
“I guess that’s Be. Is she okay?” Theo asked.
“Oh yes, she is fine, like fine she is.” I stutter, not knowing what to say.
“Okay, let’s get going; I won’t break into girls privacy.” He said.
I faked myugh.
Be
I took a deep breath just like Lisa said on the phone, but I notice how fast my heart is beating.
“Be, you got this, you never broke the rules of a maid, so maybe she wants to talk about work and how I am coping; she is a human and a mother too; she can’t hurt me. I will go now.” I looked into the mirror to encourage myself and stepped out of the room.
I noticed how some of the maids looked at me like I killed someone in the house, but I ignored it; I entered the car she sent to pick me from her home.
I kept wishing I have a remote to fast forward the whole thing about to take ce.

We arrived at a restaurant; it took me seconds to finally take a bold step to walk in; there she is, already eating.
I walked in her direction and extended greetings with her which she responded coldly.
I remain standing, remembering what Brenda told me, “Be, when you get there, do not sit or do anything until she orders you to do so; you don’t want her wrath.”
I just kept looking, not knowing what else to do; she ignored me totally like I was not present with her, my legs were aching, but I have to remain standing.
“Be, right?” She said, acting its the first time she knows my name and identity; I just nodded.
“Have your seat!” She said, and I thanked her; now I can feel my legs.
“Brenda told me how hard working you are, I love the remarks.”
“Thanks ma.” This can’t be it, she didn’t call me here to give me some de.
“I also heard how loyal you are to my only son Kyle.” My heart left me hearing this, I stuttered saying,”Ma.”
“Thank you Be, you know the reason I called you here?”
“No ma, I am yet to found out.” Shit how did I became this bold.
“Wow, you are confident as well, so my son birthday is next week, I want you all to make arrangements for it too ” she added.
I still don’t believe she called me here over a birthday n.
“My son will be engaging ra on that day, isn’t that great? I know some might be hurt but I believe many can get to know love doesn’t win.”
I almost tears knowing she is talking to me indirectly, Kyle engaging ra on his birthday , this can never be true, how will I take such a pain?
“Yeah, congrattions to your son.” I acted.
“Just know the reason you work here else I can easily make a call to your parents that they gave me a flirt as a maid, clear the table and wash the dishes in there.”
What? I can’t wash dishes in a restaurant.
“Ma, this is not home but a restaurant.”
“I know, I own this ce, you are going to wash all dishes till they close before going home, hope its not hard for you?” She looked deep into my eyes and I could tell her looks are evil.
“No ma, I will wash it, you are my boss.”
“Good, I will be leaving and mind you, the head here is impatient and can quickly hit a maid.” She said before leaving and I got a bit confused on what she means.
I received a p from a hostile male, I almost fell down when he said,”Is this your father house that you standing looking around, get to work right now.” Hot tears left my eyes that I couldn’t do anything.
I hate been poor.
I washed out hell out of my life and starving at the same time then a nice looking girl came to me,”Drink water, you look thirsty.”
“Thank you.” I took it from her and drank everything, then she startedughing and I wondered why.
I noticed I became dizzy all of a sudden.

I woke up in someone’s room seeing Kyle looking at me angry.
“Why would you go drinking without me dressed that way?”
“What?” I noticed my dressed was changed.
“You know I am jealous, thank God he called me, he found you and brought you here, lets go home.”
He carried me but I looked so dumb, not understanding what’s going on.
We entered his car and he said,”Who did you go out with?” I saw the anger in his eyes.
To be continued.
Be is just going through hell, all because she is poor, poverty is truly a disease.
