Antonia's POV
Today we'll be able to clean the Dolan household at noon instead of late evening since it's Sunday.
I walk out of the car with my mom. We're back at the same beautiful house I admire. I don't understand why they need it to be thoroughly cleaned once a week. There's not much to clean. I feel as if no one even lives in that house.
"You can use the vacuum first for the second floor while I mop the kitchen" my mother tells me.
I nod and grab the vacuum. It's not that heavy, so I can manage to carry it up the 20 wooden steps.
I plug in the vacuum and begin vacuuming the hallway that leads to the rooms.
I enter the last door on the left to start vacuuming the room when I hear someone groan.
I just ran over a someone's foot.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry" I quickly turn off the vacuum.
I look up to see a beautifully sculpted face.
I didn't know someone would be home. The house is always empty when we clean it.
"Watch it" the young man speaks while rubbing his eye.
"Move. You're in my way" he adds while walking past me.
Rude much
I enter his room and continue vacuuming. I take notice the pale walls and trophies. There is a diploma for a bachelors in psychology.
Interesting.
I don't usually look around when I clean, but I decided to today so I can learn more about the rude man that I came in contact with earlier.

"Ready to go honey" my mom asks me.
"Yes, I finished cleaning upstairs" I respond.
I help my mother gather the cleaning equipment and carry it to the car. As we close the trunk, a car pulls up.
An older man walks out as well as an older woman about the same age. They look no older than 50.
"Hello Mr. And Mrs. Dolan" my mother greets them.
"Good evening Adrianna and..." the woman waits for me to announce myself.
"I'm Antonia" I smile.
"Antonia, nice to meet you. Thank you for cleaning the house today" she thanks us.
"I'm also sorry for our son startling you earlier" she apologizes for him.
"Oh it was no bother" I reply.
We gently part ways with the woman looking intently at me as we left their home.
Strange.
"I encountered a rude man earlier in that house" I speak to my mom as we are driving back home.
"Ohh, was it Grayson or Ethan" she asks me.
"I don't know. I never asked" I shrug.
"His room is the last door on the left" I tell her.
"Oh, that's Ethan. Him and his brother are so handsome" she chimes.
"True, but he's rude" I shrug my shoulders.

We get home to find Anthony and Annette in the living room watching tv together.
I love my siblings.
"How has your heart been feeling today father" I sit down next to him.
"Today's been a good day for me" he smiles.
I'm happy it was a good day for him. His bad days are when he can barely breath and has heart pains.
"Did you take your meds yet" I ask.
"Already did my child. Thank you for being so caring of me" he kisses the top of my head.
I love my father so much. He's too young for heart problems. He's no older than 50. He's only 45 and is experiencing heart problems. I want him to be around for many more years.
I enter the kitchen with my mother and help her get a snack ready for everyone to eat. I wash the apples while she cuts them.
"Honey, I just got a phone call from the Dolans. They invited us for dinner tomorrow night" she hums while slicing apples on the cutting board.
"Isn't it strange to have them invite us over? They've never done that before in all the years you've worked there, mom" I glance at her.
"True. But I cannot be rude to them, I need this job. They pay so well" she responds.
I guess she is right. That is how she bought me my used car after all. I don't think she would have been able to afford that if it wasn't for the Dolans.
"Antonia, can you come watch tv with us? We miss you" Annette smiles up at me.
She's so sweet.
"Of course! I got us some apple slices" I hold the plate of sliced apples in my hands.
