I walked towards them, stood in between the mother and son, and served them their breakfast, trying my best to avoid any type of eye contact with Jungkook but he was there acting like nothing happened cause it is true, nothing happened to him, everything happened to ME!

I gave them their breakfast and went to the kitchen with the empty tray in my hands and that's when I remembered that because of all that trauma I suffered from due to shouting at Jungkook I forgot to bring the mop and left it in his room.

And now I have to enter that monster's cave again to bring that back. Huh, okay I'll go there before they finish their breakfast.

Don't worry Y/n, you got this bread.

''Okay Y/n.....kaja!" I ran towards the stairs.

I quickly entered the room and offffffff I couldn't spot the mop anywhere.

''Hurry up palli palli pal-ohh found it,'' I saw the mop under the bed and crouched down to get it and-

''You surely got some nerves huh?" That sudden voice sent shivers down my spine, my eyes widened and I jumped backward in reflex.

Jungkook's body was crouched down a bit as he just whispered into my ears and he was looking at me with a straight face with an eyebrow raised.

I got a close-up look of his face.  Let's keep my nervousness aside for a sec cause damn son what do you use? extra high full coverage foundation and concealer because I can't seem to spot them marks.

Okay, now back to being nerve-wrecked.

''I-I -'' I stuttered.

''You love complaining a lot don't you,'' It was more like he was telling me than not asking me.

How did he kn- SHIT he surely overheard me while I was cleaning his room earlier this morning. My eyes widened more if it was even possible and my body started breaking into a cold sweat.

I just looked down and apologized.

''I'm..... I'm sorry, this w-won't happen again.'' I bowed, took the mop and walked out, in other words, ran out of the room.

AHHHHHHHHHH it was so embarrassing! I thought once I reached my room, It just hurt my ego so badly. Then I just remembered something I wanted to forget the most.

Flashback ~ ( 2 years ago )

{A/n: Awesome cringe part cause I can't describe sad shit}

The doorbell rang and I ran towards it. I opened the door revealing a well-dressed lady, about the age of Mrs. Jeon. I told her to come in and have a sit while I went up to get Mrs. Jeon.

I knocked at her door and opened it.

''Mrs. Jeon there's a lady here who wants to meet you, I told her to sit in the living room.''

Mrs. Jeon just nodded and signaled me to leave and I did as she said. I went down and told the lady that Mrs. Jeon was coming and also asked her if she wanted something to drink.

''Orange juice will work for me,'' she said as a reply, I just bowed and left to the kitchen.

I went to the kitchen and poured some orange juice in a glass and tomato juice in the other for Mrs. Jeon cause she has diabetes and can't have orange juice since it contains a lot of added sugar. I took a tray, placed the two glasses on the tray, and headed towards the living room with the tray in my hand.

There I saw Mrs. Jeon and the lady talking to each other, I stopped on my track.

''Mrs. Jeon, I brought juice for the both of you.'' Mrs. Jeon nodded and pointed at the center table, telling me to put it there. I just nodded and was about to keep the glasses on the center table but during the process, I stumbled over that lady's foot and all the juice fell on her dress, completely ruining it.

That lady shouted at the top of her lungs and started cursing at me. My eyes widened and I started saying sorry continuously feeling more scared than guilty. Seeing this mess Mrs. Jeon simply said.

''Y/n, sit in front of her feet, bow down and apologize to her, right now.''

I just froze, not wanting to do what she just said so I just stood still.

''Can't you hear me? I said sit down in front of her, bow, and apologise to her!" I flinched and bit my lower lips, looking down still not wanting to do it. Suddenly Mrs. Jeon just held my shoulder, turned me around to face her, and slapped my right cheek in front of that lady who did nothing but looked very satisfied.

''How dare you not listen to what I say!'' Mrs. Jeon shouted at me, tears were forming in my eyes making my vision blurry. ''Did you forget that you're just a maid and nothing else, did you forget it?!" She further screamed.

''Huh, did you hesitate to bow down in front of her because it would hurt your ego?'' She asked with an evil smile.

''Well not to mention even if you bow down or don't, remember that your place will always be far beneath ours!''

She continued, "So if you kneel down it will not ruin your image it'll make it far more decent instead.'' And after that, she went upstairs with the lady to show her the washroom telling me to clean up the mess.

I just stood there unable to move a single muscle, my heart hurts, it really does, it hurts like hell. Fresh tears were streaming down my cheeks, I was shaking out of pain. I was not hurt because Mrs. Jeon insulted me in front of some unknown lady, I was hurt because I am such a fool and only realized the truth now.

End of flashback

From that very day, I started living on my own, not expecting any happiness, not expecting anything from anyone cause I knew that no one here cares about me, no one here counts me as a human being just because I'm a Maid. Just a maid.

Now that I fully remember every single second of that very day my heart clenched in pain, tears started streaming down my cheeks.

''Just a maid,'' I mumbled.

I'm here standing in the middle of nowhere, I know nothing about this place nor the people here but what I know very clearly is that they hate me, they don't think I'm one of them, they don't think I have feelings or emotions because I'm a maid. That's my one and only mistake.

Just a maid.
