"Why? Must I continue to be in this situation?"

We arrive at the family's house that am I suppose to work for.
The home was a mansion something I always dream of living in or better yet, being in.
The house was the biggest one. In the area. so, I assume they were the richest in the neighborhood.
We drove in by a limbo. I was sitting next to Rick and the family was in other limbo.
We didn't say a word as we drove here only a few before getting out. he told me to listen and do what I am told. this is probably the only way for me to get this money to pay off my family's debt.
The home was like the ones you always imagine to be in.
It was a mansion.. Or believed to me more like a castle. by this I know, I'll be out of here in meantime.
The family has a garden that is across lake nearby. it was beautiful; I always wanted to swim thou, I don't know how to.
If only friends understood my situation. they know, I'm not just a victim.
The limo pulled us out. by hand-to-hand my kidnapper help me out. why, does he always have to pretend to be a good guy when he's not. the driver closed the door behind us.
Rick make sure that I will be dressed in attire.
Low-black flats and yet, modern cute maids wear. In my opinion, I did not think I would wear this, but I have no choice.. besides it's not about what I wear. it's about how good I am. As a maiden, which I am.. until I get the money at least.

"Okay..girly be ready and do your part. if you want to make my money back, you better be ready for what your about to face."

"I'll take a visit to hell, if it means I'll have my old life again."

"Ugh...😒 okay, but do what they say if you really want your "old life again."

"Oh.. I will trust.."

As we wait for the family to come and greet us.. well, me. We stand here pass a quarter of 9am.. Rick is frustrated and is trying to ease his temper before the arrival. he walks around while, drinking water to calm down.

To me.. I wait patiently and enjoying the outdoors in the wait. I haven't felt the wind in the long time as the sunlight hits my face.. I feel the breeze that smell like roses.. this was something I needed, the living to keep me steady.

"Hey.. you're daydreaming? Stop, don't want the family think your the type to lolly gag huh?"

I didn't respond to that as to me.. this wasn't daydreaming.. this was me in the hope of finding the good part of life again. but, Rick would never understand that. he never search for that or understood the meaning of it.
I waited patiently as the wind blows my hair into my face.
I lift my head slowly to feel every breeze of the wind. I close my eyes from the fear of seeing the sunlight that may be the light of everything I dream of.

*slap*

I felt pain but, then I saw arms wrap around my waist. I look down and there was a well.. I could of fell in and possibly hurt myself.

"The fuck! I told you not to daydream. you almost fell into well."

"I just... just."

"Nothing.. You could of got hurt.. listen kid! If you don't listen to me you'll be here a lot longer.

I look away shamefully as I don't want to think about how much pain and it wasn't the slap that did it but, my dignity and spirit.

"Now! Go stand by me over there and wait. you impatient nuisance."

After that, I didn't say a word because I was at a state of losing my sanity and there wasn't to get back.. I loss all of me, myself.
I smile with the pain still solidify inside me.
I wipe the tears from my face stood up straight and my hands placed in front of me, folded.
I waited and waited for the family to arrive and Rick was patience. for I, to find of way of killing time.. would just leave me black and blue.. I have to keep myself. if I want to survive.
