Fall Of A Sassy Princess

Chapter Twenty one

And her silence was deadly.
Claire visited the coffee shop and asked me to serve her personally.
Then she began laying complain of bad servicing from me.
She made it an issue,publicly shouting and calling on peoples attention, then she asked my boss to have me fired.

The 53 years old man who has been in the business for over twenty years rejected her offer.
He didn't even fall for her threat.
I thought it was all fine until each day I would have five or more customer who personally asked for my service complaining about a bad service.

It only lasted for three days when my boss sent for me.

"Am sorry"
He apologized.
"I know you are been set up but this is bad for business,we can't let other genuine customers to keep witnessing this"

I didn't say a word,I saw that coming.
He paid me for the few days I worked.
Feeling frustrated I went to Hannah.

The children were happy to see me like always.
I stayed longer these time around,I sat on the carton where Hannah sat with her baby.
These time it wasn't the abandoned house where they live,it was the spot where Hannah sits to beg.
The children went their separate ways begging for money and food.

"You came early today"

Hannah was surprised at my silence and how I sat closely to her with my legs folded like I wanted to beg too.

"I was fired from my job today"
I told her.

"Why would any one sack a person like you?"

I turned to her.
"I want to join the business of begging.

She looked hard at me. The expression said two things.
You want to shortage my ration?
And
Why would a girl like you want to beg?

"You said nothing?"

"I ...I ..."
She was searching for the right words.

I smiled.
"That was a joke...I just felt tired, didn't want to go home because the only thing I would do is cry".

She stared at me with pity.
"Are your parent late?"

I nodded.

"Why don't you get married?"

I looked at her.
"You think so right?"
I questioned with smile.

"At least you would have a man who would be there for you"

"Why don't you get married too...at least you would have a man,who would take care of you?"

She took in a breath.
" I have to wait for my husband... Me and my baby would wait for him,its difficult but its okay"

I felt touched

She smiled.
"I wouldn't beg forever,we just need a specific amount of money to start something... I tried looking for a job,I was rejected because of my baby"

I pitied her,I was fortunate to have Daniel but she have no one.
One of the twin came running.

"I think the police is here to find Cynthia"
He was out of breath.

"Why would you say that"

"I saw someone taking pictures"
The boy said.

I got up,darting my eyes around to see who would be taking pictures.
I knew the photographer wouldn't be here for Hannah but me.
My heart skips.

"I need to return home now"

I left not waiting for a response, seeing her expression or saying goodbye.
I can't face another torment of seeing myself on t.v,social network or even entertainment magazine.
The entire country already forgot that someone like me once existed.

I hurried home still looking around to be sure I wasn't followed.
I opened the door,walked in and have it shut.
Then I heard someone mourned out of pleasure,I turned towards the bed,Daniel was having a pleasurable sex with Claire.
I shut my eyes and let the tears flow.
Claire who was on Daniel riding him turned to see me.

"Hello 'D' "
Her smile was tormenting.

I turned away and pull open the door.

"Diamond... Diamond"
That was Daniel's voice calling.

I stopped and turned towards the door.
He must have grabbed out the bedspread as he tied it around his waist while it still rolled on the floor.

He came walking to me.

"Why don't you stop there Daniel?"
Claire commanded.

Daniel played deaf.

"If you take a step forward I swear am going to...."
She ran out of threat.

"Make Diamond life miserable"

I stood staring at Daniel as he took a stop.

Claire who also had a large towel around her walked up to Daniel.

"That's it Daniel,toys obey"

"How much miserable can you make her life become?"

He asked Claire but his eyes were fixed on me.
She felt confused by the question.

"Can you do more than you have done?"
He questioned again.

"Don't let me..."
She wanted to threaten.

"Its over Claire am no longer your toy"

He came closer.
"I wouldn't apologize"
He said.
"You know that would happen as long as am her toy but am no longer one"

My heart smiled but not my face.
He grabbed my hand back into the room while Claire was outside.
She came back in.

"Toys don't reject masters, masters reject toys"
She felt embarrassed.

He threw her panties to her,then her bra,her shoes and her gown.

"I decide who stay and who live in my life"
He boldly said.

"You don't know who you are dealing with Dan"

"Why not,Claire Donald,the third child and only daughter of Sir Patrick Donald and not to forget, the daughter of the most inflencial woman in Behart.

She gave a light simper,got dressed and walked away.

"Aren't you scared?"
I questioned.

"Of who?"
His eyebrows danced with boldness.

"So you are not angry about the money and other things you would lose?"

"Should I go back to her?"
He gave a silly smile.

"I would only get angry if I was your toy and I lost you,I heard about your two last toys today,I heard you made them millionaires...am so angry,why didn't I get rich before your fall"

I smiled,knowing Daniel truly love me,he rejected a rich girl to be with me.
