After 4 days

🌼🌼🌼🌼

"A ball?"

"Yes, there's a ball in the adjacent mansion."

"So what? We're not in a position to go to a ball. You're a maid and me, I am just a subordinate's daughter. I wonder when baba's work here is going to end. It's only been few days in city and I already wanna go back."

"Aww don't talk like that. I know you will like it here just give it a chance."

"As if....."

"Oh shit, wait here girl, head maid had called me. I am coming in a moment."

"Alright go till then I will finish this book." I said and saw her moving away in a hurry and then I took a sip of my tea and opening the book, I started reading it again.

It feels so peaceful. The wind slowly blowing my hair and the rustling sound of the tree leaves and the chirping sound of bird and the aroma of roses from the nearby garden with a good cup of tea and a good romance book like this one.

I hope my life remains this peaceful for eternity. But I think it's not quite possible. Not with that Mr. Angrybird around me. But now that I think about it. I don't think he's that bad I mean he did many bad things to everyone else and me as well but last time he was like a gentleman. I don't know which of him should I believe in.

Just then I read the scene where the male lead and female lead were kissing finally confessing their love to each other. And just as I was trying to visualise the scene, I don't know why the man is always turning out to he Cedric and the woman, me.

I aggressively brushed off that thought and again started visualise again but still the same thing.

And now that I really think about it, why in the world did I kiss him? He is a Britisher. He is here to slaughter and rule over us Indians there's no way he loves me.

But if that's the case then why does he always seem protective and possessive towards me? Why does he always seem to not hit me or kill me? Why is he doing that? What does he exactly want from me? I don't even know myself anymore. It's like I am drowning in the pool of his affection and some part of me, is starting to crave it while other part of thinks of it as false and facade over his true colours.

And before I could completely dwell in my thoughts, I heard a loud voice squealing and then, the door opened with a slam and there stood an excited Charu with a huge smiling face.

"Isha!!!"

"Yeah? What happened? You look quite happy."

"You won't believe what I just got!!"

"What did you get?"

"Remember the ball I was talking about?"

"Yeah? What about it?"

"I just got permission to go in it."

"Ohh.... wait what??!!"

"Yes!! The head maid had called me to gather some potent maids to serve at the ball because they are sort on maids there and surprisingly I got chosen and I got permission for you as well."

"For me too? But how can I go? Do I have to go as a maid as well?"

"If you want otherwise, just be there and enjoy while I will help the maids there but you have to stay with me."

"But I don't have a beautiful dress for 'a ball' especially."

"We are just going as a mere guest and I am going to work so we don't need such good clothes and I think it will be if we don't stand out too much because you know some nobles here and even those rotten Britishers don't like women like us to stand out and grab unwanted attention."
