I look towards the damp ceiling still angry at that boy. He said he is one of us but I've never seen him before. He must be new.
As my thoughts carried on running I heard a whimper from Alayna. I rushedtowards her to see her shaking in her dreams. This sudden realisation motivated me into finding a way out of this hell bounded place.
I grabbed the failed pieces of papers and tried to formulate another plan. I had been too occupied with this I didn't realise the rising sun until Nancy called for us.
"Today you guys need to be efficient, there are guests coming and there's no room for mistakes."
I yawn as I make my way to the kitchen. I was given the task to serve the guest. As they arrived I clutched their coats and stood presentively. As I organise the table a feeling of ease settled upon me. everything was going according to plan. As I head to the kitchen , my eyes began to feel heavy. I have to control myself. I cant mess up. Nancy handed me 'a tray of beverages. I wobble towards the guest room as I entered the room, my feet tripped over each other leading the drinks to fall with me. All I could hear was silence. My ears were deaf to chaos I created. All I could see was the mess I created while the guest glared at me as they hurried passed and out the house.
"HOW DARE YOU EMBARRAS ME LIKE THAT !! YOU CANT EVEN DO A SIMPLE TASK LIKE THAT!! I OUGHT TO PUNISH YOU"
The woman began to shriek. I prepared myself for the pain but it never came instead she walked passed dragged in Alayna.
"THERE IS NO WAY I CAN TEACH YOU, BUT THERE IS A WAY YOU CAN STILL LEARN!!"
She began to pull Alayna's arms while I beg her to leave her alone. I tried to getup to retaliate but Nancy grabbed me to stop me. All I could see Alayna's fearfilled ears as she was dragged away from me. those eyes gave me more pain than any beating.
