HARD WORK_5

SHE KEEPS ME WARM...

'Mommy! Mommy!'

Nicole smiled when her daughters came running towards her as she entered the house. She slipped of her shoes, left them by the door and hugged them before they turned back towards the direction they came from. This surprised her since usually as soon as she entered the house they immediately start telling her about their day.

' Guess their day wasn't eventful.'

She went into her bedroom to shower and change into something more comfortable before relieving her babysitter and starting on dinner. Just as she stripped out of her work uniform and got into the steamy shower, someone knocked on her bedroom door.

'Come in'

She said leaving her bathroom and shower open. She assumed it was her neighbour Mrs. Royalty who babysat for her everytime she had to work late. She heard the door open.

'I'll be with you in a minute Mrs. Royalty..........hope the kids didn't give you a hard time today.'

Her face was covered in soap and her eyes were closed she could not see her but felt her presence. She screamed when she realised Mrs. Royalty wasn't the one standing in her bedroom. She tried to cover her breasts and privates with her hands as she searched around the room for something to cover herself but the only thing that could cover her was next to where the stranger stood.

' Damn I was just enjoying the view behind you but this view is so much better.'

' What?!'

Nicole gasped as she felt the temperature on her cheeks increase.

' Who are you and what are you doing in my house?'

Before she could get answers to her questions,her daughters came running into the bedroom.

'Max! Max! Our hands are clean see?'

The girls said looking up at the stranger and twisting their hands in her face to show her that they had washed them as Nicole stood shocked by them knowing who she was and still naked.

'Go downstairs,so I can talk to mommy. I'll be there in a minute.'

The girls ran out without saying anything to their mother,she wondered if they even noticed she was standing there.

'Sorry Nicole... I am Maxine Royalty,Mrs. Royalty's daughter. She said she'll let you know that I was baby sitting for her today. '

She spoke as she handed her a robe that was behind her bedroom door. Maxine couldn't help but take her time handing her the robe as she stood admiring her body.

'Thanks!'

Nicole rolled her eyes when she finally handed her the robe. She was going to introduce herself but remembered that she called her by her name.

' is your mother not well?'

'No she had to go take care of her mother back home.'

Nicole nodded as they both starred at each other in an awkward silence before Max spoke again.

'Oh I came to inform you that dinner is ready.'

'You cooked?'

Maxine smiled when she noticed that shocked look on her face.

'Yes,your daughter's said they wanted to do something nice for you. So we decided to cook.'

'Wow.. okay let me get dressed them I'll join you guys.'

'Oh no I won't be joining you guys. I have a date which I'm late for hence I came in here .'

Nicole looked for her phone and found that the battery was flat,the old lady probably tried to call she thought. She went into the dining area and found the kids already eating without Maxine. Something about Maxine kept her on her mind for the rest of the night.
