Why Me?

Chapter Six

Chapter Six

So many feelings were getting in my way these days, like gosh can’t my body control some floating hormones? I’m currently in my room, walking back and forth not knowing what to do. Great! I just made a fool out of myself in front a total stranger, like who the hell asked me to talk about my past?

I inhaled a big chunk of air inside my lungs, and almost chocked in the process so I decided to go outside and get some fresh air and move my sluggish body. I decided to go with the summery dress the nice maid Selina had kindly placed on the bed.

I put the dress on, and stared at the reflection on the mirror, it was a yellow flowy dress that reached under my knees, it fitted me in the right places, yet it was so loose and comfortable. I also took the ‘flip flops’ she left me. I headed my way to the garden with the intention of clearing my mind off of the things that haunt my present.

I got lost in the big mansion until I saw a nice man who looked like he worked here. I smiled, and asked him to lead me to the garden and so he did, by the end of the trip to the garden I was able to know that his name is Matt and that he was the cook in the mansion and he was back from his vacation.

I waved at him goodbye when we’ve reached the garden, he made sure to make me feel as comfortable as possible by telling me that I can rely on him for help on anything, but I won’t let anyone trick me anymore so I decided to ignore his offer.

I wonder what I would ask him to do if I trusted him, help me escape? Bring back the past? Find my dad’s grave? I shook the thoughts off with a smile, I should always put on a good face even if I’m suffering from the inside, but I had to pretend like it doesn’t heart.

I took a seat on the bench in the garden and lifted my head high my worries were instantly vanished as soon as I laid my eyes on the piece of art in front of me. I took off the foot wear I was wearing and walked on the moist grass that made silly noises here and there whenever I took a step.

I breathed in the fresh air into my lungs but this time I didn’t chock, I only grinned. I laid on the grass and stared on the sky, it looked so jocular, full with the dancing birds. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the weather.

My eyes opened when reality hit me hard and I remembered that I do not belong here. How am I supposed to give my so called “mother” money if I can’t even live on my own? I mean look at me, I can’t afford to buy a bag of chips.

I haven’t had the chance to do anything after high school, and this was something that ashamed me and brought me down whenever the thought came in mind. My father and I have always been planning my future since I was a little kid. He have always been and encouragement for me to continue my education. 

I need to find a job somewhere like a pharmacy or something I can assist, I am also really good at accounting, English, arts, law these are all things that I did very well on in my high school years. I need to leave this place, feel shameful for staying with David. Ugh, why is life so complicated?

-David Point of view-

I came back to my bed after Sabrina had left, but didn't feel like sleeping anymore. I kicked off the duvet off my body to be hit with the cold air. Deciding to do some work, I reached for the button on my laptop and pressed it until the screen lit up. I then typed in the passcode- "it's a secret."

I smiled at the memory whenever some of my past girlfriends would ask me for the password (after the relationship gets a bit more serious) I would always say the same thing it's a secret, and they would all get mad at me and leave me saying that we need to work on our trust issues, but somehow they always comeback, not for me though for my money. “Girls these days”

Speaking of girls, I wonder what Sabrina is doing right now, how is she feeling? She probably feels embarrassed by what she did, but I’m glad. I’m glad that this can be a step for her to forget about her past and start aiming for a better future. I really want the best for her, after what I did to her. Whenever I remember that is was partly my fault for the mess in her life, I feel like there is a grip clutching and squeezing my heart. I shook the thought off of my head, I promised myself to give her some time to herself.

I turned back to the files I’ve been working on for the past month and saw something that shocked me; all the data has disappeared from the file. I got angry and called my secretary immediately, Samara wasn’t only my secretary but she was also my accountant therefore she is the only one who has access to the data.

In the company I have many more accountants but they’re not all trust worthy, and here I am thinking I could trust Samara with the important data that analyses the connections of my alliances. She picked up-“ hello Dav-” has anyone taught her how to speak to her boss, she is known for her flirting habits from her pencil skirts and push up bras to her touching people and flirting with them.

She was blabbering on and on with things I ignore I didn’t let her finish ended the call by saying “your fired” I can only imagine her shocked face and her leaking face, I chuckled at that. Thankfully I have the files saved somewhere else. I made sure to send a bug to her laptop that deletes all the information on her computer, including her personal data.

“Great now I need to find a new employee that can be trusted” I whispered to myself.

Heyyyy! Sorry I took so long but this semester is pretty hard and tiring and I rarely had time to think of this book. I’m such a horrible person but anyway that doesn’t matter, what matters is that I have 1 K readers what? Omg that made me that happiest person J thank you guys I’ll try to update soon.
