I quickly brush my teeth wash my face and tie my hair in a high ponytail before I walk out of the bathroom fresh and ready to face the day. After what Mr angry did to me yesterday, I have to be ready to expect anything...I guess him bringing me clothes to sleep in didn't mean that he is nice.

"Hey Kayla....What is Mr Angry's name?" Kayla looks up from her phone and she suddenly reminds me that I don't have one here.

"Who Xavier?" She asks her eyebrows knitted in confusion.

"Xavier...", The name rolls off my tongue, leaving a bitter taste in my mouth.

"If you value your life Gina, I suggest you do as he says and do not upset him", Gina says and she stands so we can walk down together.

"Why what will he do?", I ask with a shrug...

"You have no idea what you are dealing with do you?", She asks in a voice that sounds a bit sad.

"A very rude, cold and heartless human?", I say casually

"Worse..." She says and stops at the door.

"Worse?"

"Much worse...but if you don't want to know who he is just yet, I suggest you get dressed in appropriate clothing", she says signaling to my oversized shirt with bottoms.

"Oh right....I don't really want to wear the clothes I wore yesterday", I drop my head and look at her through my eyelashes.

"Oh Gina...but your closet is full of clothes!", She exclaims and I look at her with worry.

"You must be seeing things...", I say but walk towards the closet anyway, realising that the pieces of glass and the blood trails are long gone.

"OMG!!", I scream once I enter my closet.

Kayla was right, my cupboard is full of clothes. Clothes of all different shapes and colors, it looks like a complete shop. The top drawer filled with different types of underwear, including lingerie.

I quickly slip into black lace bra and panties before changing into a yellow floral dress that reaches just above my kness and I just throw on black flip flops.

"Yes girl...that's more like it!", Kayla yells when I leave the closet.

I turn around my dress flowing around me and giggle walking towards the door where Kyla stands.

"So where is Xavier?", I ask quietly, realising that we have been loud and I seriously do value my life.

"He left as soon as your clothes arrived, I think it was around 07:30", she says as we walk down the stairs.

"Yes!!!...home alone", I scream and I run down the remaining flight of stairs.

"We are going to to get along just fine", I hear her sigh from behind me.
I run to the dining room.

A wide smile grows on my face when I see the amount of food install for me.
There is three different kinds of cereal, I see bacon and eggs, pancakes with chocolate syrup and lots of other foods that I do not recognize.

I quickly sit and start with the pancakes. Kyla stands beside me grinning at my excitement.

"Hey, have you eaten already?"

"No I was going to eat in the kitchen after you eat Gina...I am a maid", she says as if it's the most obvious thing in the world.

"What?!....no way, come let's eat and from now on we are maids together, you are not going to prepare anything for me, we will prepare it together in the kitchen, I just need maid attire", I finish with a hopeful smile.

"I am only sitting because Xavier is not here and no you are not becoming a maid unless he says so. You really have no idea who he is do you?", She asks while sitting and serves bacon and eggs for herself.

I shake my head once more before Kyla's expression grows serious.

"It was eight months ago when xavier killed my dad in front of me...", She starts tears forming in her eyes and I put down my fork to hold her hand.

"He took me away from my mom and brought me here, kind of like how you are here, I stayed in the room next to yours, I missed my mom terribly and I was very afraid that xavier was going to kill me...he didn't do anything to me in the first month, I thought I was safe because I did everything he asked. One night I overheard him having a conversation on his phone with someone that wanted to buy me so I would become their stripper and I couldn't take it, the next morning while Xavier was out I snuck out of the mansion, I told the guards that Xavier had let me go but they refused so I sprayed them with pepper spray and I ran off. I went straight to my mom and we moved out of the country right away. Two weeks later Xavier had found me and he...." She sobs loudly and she breaths heavily.

"Shhhh, it okay....hey it's okay", I sooth her back feeling tears well up in my own eyes

"He...he made me kill my own mom Gina....I killed my mom", she whispers and a tear trickles down my cheek.

"Hey, it's not your fault...."

"He brought me back here, he fired the old maid and made me the maid. I wanted to become a nurse, but I couldn't, I am not allowed to leave the premises. Another girl was brought in after me, but she wasn't cooperative like me, she fought with him and never listened to what he said, she was killed in front of me, with Xavier's words 'this will be your fate if you act like a bitch'." She finishes and she breaths in before wiping her tears and wiping mine with her hands as well.

"Please don't cross him Gina...I like you way too much to see you die", she says as if begging me and I nod in acceptance.

Suddenly I hear commotion at the back of the house and my body perks up, the hairs on my arms standing and I feel goosebumps appear on my skin.

Kayla quickly runs straight to the kitchen and it takes everything in me not to run after her.

I hear footsteps walking towards the dining hall and I try to continue eating normally but my heart beats rapidly and my hands start to shake.

Xavier appears from the door holding a gun in his hand and his usual careless expression plastered on his face.

"Call Kayla and meet me in the garage....both of you"

At loss of words I shakily nod my head still staring at the gun in his hand.

I stand my shaky figure up and walk to the kitchen.

"Xavier wants us in the garage", I manage to choke out and Kyla's face goes pale.

She nods and we walk to the garage holding hands.

My heart sinks at the scene in front of me.
