The contract she signed.

Part 18 . Feeling sleepy

I was angry with him. As soon as he left Uzma walked inside.  I sat down on the satee that was at the end of the bed. Why did i feel as if I was about to cry? What was this stupid feeling. I was sad that he had left me all alone.  I got up and told Uzma.

I want to take a shower. Could you please leave.

She asked me Shall I help you my lady? I will fill the tub so you can have a long bubble bath while I give you a gentle massage.

No. Thank you. I will manage I told her. What was that dont the women in the castle have their own bath? I looked at her and she opened the door to the left . which lead to a dry room with a dressing table. Further inside there was a slide door for the shower cubical and a basin with lots of different aftershaves and neatly folded hand towels, Imprinted with a C on it . 

I walked towards the shower cubical and opposite to it was a rounded tub. Uzma came in and started to fill the tub. She asked me if she shall use lavender or vanilla for the bath. I was upset and angry so I choose not to answer her. She put in a few drops of lavender oil in my bath. I changed and put a towel around me and waked to the tub.

You may now go Uzma afraid that she would see it.  

She smiled at me and said give me the towel and get inside my lady.

 Ok but you turn around and then I will hand over the towel. 

She did as I told her and I got in the bath. I handed her my towel and she turned and climbed behind the tum and I put my head on the head rest. She  took some foam and started to rub my shoulders and I was feeling good. It felt like I was a cindrella princess. 

I shut my eyes and felt my self relax in the tub. 

Uzma where are you from? I asked her

From bangladesh my lady.

Can you please call me Shimmer? I dont like being called Lady.

When did you come here, why so far away from your house? do you not miss your family?

Lady I uhumm 

Its ok you can tell me I will not tell Chris about it.

I was sold by my brother to someone in India and from there I was taken to Kuwait. I ran away when I got to know the reason. I met a man called Abu who was very nice and took me to Prince Hasnat. I used to work for him and one day Da'skalos Chris came and Prince Hasnat was to marry so he asked him if he could accomodate me in as his employee and he had me sent here. I have been with his family for six years now.

Di anyone ever try to?

No my Lady. I ran away before that. But with Prince Hasnat yes we did and hence before his wedding I had to leave. My lady we, women are emotional at heart and some times we give our hearts to the wrong man. But Da'salalos Chris is a very nice man. 

Hmm is all i repleied. 

Cna you get me something to drink Uzma? She noddded and left. I closed my eyes and my mind reached to Chris again. was Uzma his... I was feeling the anger in my heart if he too thought and did he  have any relation with her?

I dont know how long I was in the tub. I got up and walked out till i could reach the towel and Uzma came in.

Dont ever enter the like that I shouted. 

I am sorry my lady and she put her head down.

I grabbed a towel and went to the cubical and took a shower and used the bath robe to cover me and I went out to the dry room.

I am sorry Uzma but I am not used to anyone in my bath.

Its ok my lady she made me sit on the stool and started to dry my hair.

I went to the room and reached for the bed.

Supper my lady.

No I want to sleep. Please leave now.

I will be by your bed side in case you need anything.

I went to bed.
