The Billionaire's Young Mistress

5

Several hours on train,passed through eight towns but I still didn't feel safe enough to get off...My boss' words kept ringing at the back of my head...To get as far away as possible...

I had a very troubled night,I didn't really sleep because I felt like I was being followed.
I know I was just being paranoid about the whole situation...I tensed up at every stop,as people got off and on the train

Finally,at the last stop which is the 12th town,I got off the train...I quietly made my way to the town centre,looking for any sort of motel but the best I got was a bed and breakfast...

The woman at the reception was very nice,she was all smiles...throwing her bouncy curls over her shoulders non stop...

"You are such a cutie!"She cooed,fingering my dingy black curls as she pushed open the door to the room I was gonna stay...

"Thank you"I said gently,managing a smile.

"I didn't catch a name though"She said,helping me place my bag on the couch...

"Uh...Jeannette"I said,I hurriedly moved away from the doorway so she could leave...but still,she lingered

"Cute name for such a cutie!...I've always wanted a daughter like you,a real pretty one but I keep having boys...you know,my eldest is only 24 years old...he's a real handsome fella,you should meet him!
I still wanna keep trying for a girl but after nine boys,my husband's had enough!"She laughed heartily and I couldn't help but join in...

"I understand him"she continued"I wish I could adopt a girl too but my husband's believe does not support such actions so I guess I have to be content with my football team"We laughed again...

"Are you new in town?"She asked and I nodded slowly...I instantly mentally berated myself for giving out too much personal information to a stranger just because she seemed nice..

All she knows is my name and that I'm new here,nothing to worry about... I slowly reassured myself

"Its pretty easy to know that cause I've never seen you around...You're welcome to stay as long as you want here...I'll be happy to give you a discount but food is only twice a day,its a bed and breakfast so i only offer breakfast and dinner but if you can pay for more then its fine"She smiled and patted my curls again...

"Thanks a lot...uh..."

"Kensy...my name is Kensy"

"Alright Kensy,thank you very much...i'm gonna take a bath now and get some sleep afterwards"I said,trying to get her to leave...

"Oh sure!...use the phone in the corner to call me if you need anything,OK?"She then giddily hugged me so tight,I was starting to get creeped out by her nice-nice attitude...

I was truly relieved and thankful when she left...I locked and unlocked  the door a few times before I was satisfied then I went to have my bath,a hot,soothing bath with a bath liquid that smelled like a field of thousand sweet smelling flowers,I loved it!

The hair shampoo was equally amazing...my hair seemed to be able to finally breathe after i washed off all the grease and dishwashing liquid remains that clung to my roots...

After I was done,I brushed out my hair and I dressed in one of the clothes in the bag my boss had packed for me...I recognized the dress as Gloria's long green cotton dress,the one she wears during special work days...I took my time to check through the clothes,recognizing most of it as Valerie's and Gloria's...

I finally let my feelings get the best of me and I burst into hot tears....I cried like my heart would straight out burst out of my chest,I sat dejectedly on the floor,with my hand over my mouth...I didn't want Kensy or anyone else to hear me cry...

I don't know why Gloria,Valerie and my boss did all of these things for me...did they care about me that much?

I guess I never really believed I was loved by them...Sitting back now,I realize they truly showed me how much they care...Valerie used to help with my chores whenever she suspected I had a bit too much to do.

Gloria,I now understand why she would bake so many cookies and cakes...she knew we could never sell all of them and my boss only allowed freshly baked foods to be sold,so i got all the remnants..

My boss gave me free lunch everyday...

So all that was love?

I wish i had thanked them enough,that I reciprocated their gestures...it hurt me that I might never see them again....
I have no plans now,no family,no friends...I feel so alone and to cap it all,I'm homeless!

I don't know how long Kensy will let me stay in her bed-and-breakfast,especially with the offered discount with free food involved....I ransacked my bag to see how much cash I had..

I had about $650,I was relieved that it would last me about two months considering how affordable the room is,plus she offered me a discount...

They gave me this much...my mind reeled..

I decided that I need to get a job to sustain myself....My boss,Valerie and Gloria was enough driving force for me now

I need to live,I need to survive because I need to see them again...

My head was aching so bad I could not keep ignoring it.
I sighed,dragging myself off the floor and laid on the bed and pulled the blanket up to my head,trying to shut out intrusive thoughts and finally settle into a  peaceful sleep...

But I couldn't stop thinking about so many things...

How will I get a job?
What kind of job will I get?
What kind of people will I have to work with?
Am I truly safe here or I need to change my identity?
Will I truly survive here?

My head hurt so bad!

I grabbed the pillow and put it over my head...
