The sound of a door opening wakes me up from my peace. I open my eyes to a dark room. As I sit up I wince in pain, my whole body hurts. Then I realise why. I slept on the floor. My eyes sting from crying so much before.

I cover my eyes as bright light floods into the room. Peaking through my lids I see someone standing by the huge window of the room. Only after my eyes have adjusted to the lights do I open them fully, to see a girl.

She's dressed in black skirt that reaches just below her knees, a white button up shirt neatly tucked in, her black hair braided neatly. She looks a bit older then me, maybe Chloe's age.

"Good morning ma'am" she greets me happily bouncing on her heels.

" oh no, please call me Serena" I say awkwardly as I get up.

" ok ma- I mean Serena" she face palms her self " I'm sorry I disturbed you but Sir wanted you up by 8"

"You mean Xavier?" I ask her.

"Yes, he told me to get you ready for breakfast" she says as she walk up to me

"Anyways, Im maya. My mom works here at the kitchen and my father is a gardener. I've grown up here. I went away for few years for college but ever since I've come back  I've been working here as well, as a maid"  she introduces her self.

"Nice to meet you maya" I say quietly.

"So, it's eight right now and the breakfast will be at nine so we need to get you ready in an hour" she says clapping her hands. She grabs me by my arm and leads me to the washroom.

"why do I need to get ready for breakfast?" I complain. I really don't understand the point of getting ready for breakfast. Plus I'm in no mood for all this. After all the shit I've been through in last few days the last thing I want is to have a kitty party with Xavier.

That monster. I don't even want to be reminded of him and here I am, getting ready to have breakfast with him.

What had he said to me

I own you

Huh

Own you my ass

I wanna punch his pretty face. Shave off his beautiful, thick hair that I envy so much. Burn all his designer suits. Chop him int-

"Here are the clothes" my evils thoughts are interrupted by maya, "I heard Xavier had ordered new clothes for you but they won't be here so you have to make work with these. These are mine " she says to me apologetically.

"That's really nice of you to lend me your clothes, but I can't wear these" I say to her, "In fact I'm not going to get ready for him. He can't order me around. I've been ordered around much and now I can't take this anymore. I'm not having breakfast with that monster"

"Please keep your voice down. If he hears you you'll be in trouble" she pleads, "I've known him since we were kids.He doesn't hear no."

She tries hard to make me go for breakfast but I refuse. I've suffered so much through out my life, now I don't want to take this shit. I don't know from where all this courage is coming from. I've never said no to anyone in my whole life. My family had always ordered me around. But I can't take this anymore.

After her failed attempts to get me ready, maya finally leaves, but not before warning me not make him angry.

After she leaves I get into the bed, planning to sleep again. I lay there for so long but can't sleep. Either because I had just woken up, or because I'm scared as shit. In my stupidity I have refused to have breakfast with him, but now I'm really scared.
