•LUCY GAYLE•I took one last at my outfit and I left my room , Patricia was feeling a little under the weather today since she got food poisoning from the sushi she ate the night before. I said my goodbyes and I left the apartment. The past week was peaceful,I made Christian his coffee and he made me breakfast as well and I would leave his penthouse alongside with him.
Once I got to Christians penthouse,I tapped my key on the door and got inside. It seems like Christian isn't awake yet and it's Friday,his meetings day. I sat on one of the kitchen stools and scrolled through the internet looking for new ways to make vanilla bean espresso.
"Oh are you the house help?? I need you to make me and Christian breakfast and some coffee as well and call us down when your done" A woman with brunette hair smiled and I looked up from my phone and looked at her crazy
"Excuse me?? Do I look like a house help to you?" I asked
"I don't care who you are, just do what I've told you to do" the woman shrugged and she walked off
"What the actual hell" I said to myself and I waited for Christian to come downstairs. I decided to get started on his coffee as I waited.
"Morning Lucy" Christian greeted me in his thick British accent
"Good morning,here is your coffee" I smiled as I gave him a mug and he took a sip
"Did you change the recipe?" Christian asked
"No,I just found a new way to make it better" I laughed
"I love it, thank you" he smiled as he drank some more.
"Babe,let's eat" the brunette woman smiled as she walked up to Christian and I
"I don't eat breakfast and stop calling me babe Tiffany" Christian huffed
"Didn't I tell you to make us breakfast? What is your job here actually,you just come to sit here and scroll through your phone as if you own the place and where is my coffee" Tiffany raised her voice at me
"I'm not sure what coffee you wanted so I was waiting for you to say something and I only make coffee ma'am not cook breakfast" I smiled
"Lucy it's alright, I'll just make her breakfast" Christian sighed and he put down his briefcase on one of the kitchen stools.
"No,I want her to make me breakfast,I don't need you getting your suit all dirty" Tiffany smiled
"As she said,she only makes coffee not breakfast,so you might as well get some breakfast on your way back home" Christian shrugged picking up his briefcase
"Is this how you treat your girlfriend?? And why are you taking her side???" Tiffany spat
"Tiffany we are not together and we will never be together again,so please leave my house and never come back again or else I will get a restraining order against you " Christian gritted his teeth
"Fine,I can't believe you are choosing her over me" Tiffany huffed
"Get outtt" Christian shouted in his thick British accent and Tiffany stormed out and left the penthouse
"I should get going" I sighed as I grabbed my purse
"We can go together,I'll send my driver to take you home from my office " Christian smiled
"Oh alright " I smiled and we walked out of the penthouse,there was alot of questions going on in my mind about his relationship with Tiffany before the break up but it's none of my business.
Christians driver escorted me to tej grocery store since I told him I had a few things to grab, once I was done he dropped me off at my apartment building and I said my goodbyes and walked into the lobby getting into the elevator. I bet Tiffany was a pain in the ass during their relationship and she still is now. Once I got to the apartment,I got inside and took of my shoes and dropped off the grocery bags on the kitchen island and I walked to Patricia's room.
"Welcome back" Patricia smiled as I sat on her bed
"Thank you,seems as if you had a yoga session" I laughed
"Ah yes I did,my muscles were aching do I needed to let some tension off" Patricia laughed
"Did you eat?" I asked
"Yes I did,I had some oats and chia seeds with some of my bloom blend" Patricia smiled
"I'm starving,accompany me to the kitchen" I laughed and we walked out of her room going to the kitchen
"You brought groceries, I swear I had that sorted this week" Patricia sighed
"You are a busy girl,I will always go get the groceries,you don't gotta worry about it" I laughed as I unpacked.
"Your such a darling ,so how was your morning" Patricia smiled
" Chaotic actually,I met Christian's crazy ex girlfriend" I laughed
"She was in his house??" Patricia asked in shock
"Yes,she's such a pain in the ass,tell me why this girl told me to make her breakfast?? And she had the audacity to call me a house maid,such a bitch" I rolled my eyes
"She was very bold and what did Christian do?" Patricia laughed
"Kicked her out and he's definitely getting a restraining order against her" I laughed as I put away the groceries into their respectful places.
"Like he should,I can't imagine how their relationship was tbh" Patricia sighed
"Tell me about it" I laughed as I took out some premade waffles from the fridge and popped them in the toaster.
"I'm glad she didn't try anything funny on you" Patricia smiled
"Me too" I laughed
"Are those gluten-free waffles??" Patricia laughed
"Yes,I do love my gluten free breakfasts,thank you very much" I laughed as I took them out and placed them on a plate,I got some blueberries and whipped cream from the fridge and placed them on top of my waffles.
"Please make me an iced coffee" Patricia pouted
Once I made our iced coffee's , I sat down to eat and we talked about the latest fashion trends on the internet. What would I do without Patricia, probably die of course.
