Today I woke up at 6 a.m., hearing Ethan scream at his phone again, probably an office issue...right? I thought to myself that I needed to get up soon before he argues with me too. So I got out of bed and showered but then Ethan came, he told me to get ready quickly or else he would be a fool to his workers. I stepped into the living room. It's a very bright room but the person inside it isn't.
"Stupidly dressed as ever", Ethan said. I said nothing and followed him to the car and we headed off to the office.When we got there he told me to go straight to his office room so I did. Before I went around the corner I saw him greeting some women I have never seen before. I already felt like *&#$ so I didn't think of it too much and went in.
Christian, Ethan's assistant, was setting up all his paperwork for today.
"Hello Christian", I said.
"Oh sorry, good morning ma'am".
I walked up to him and looked at the papers,
"This is more than normal...", I said.
"Yes ma'am, he has a lot of appointments today with uhm..".
"With?", I asked
He cleared his throat, "With huge companies, I think". He said carefully.
I nodded, "Well It's good to see you again Christian", I said with a small smile.
"You too, I will see u at lunch ma'am", he secretly smiled a little and walked away.I sat in Ethan's chair and looked at the appointments... Some of them were normal, he always had a daily meeting with the biggest companies to keep a good eye on them. But when I looked at the last appointment at 8 p.m, I only saw a name, no notes of the last meeting, no ideas, no nothing. But before I could think more about it, Ethan came in.
"Get your dirty hands off my schedule!", he said angrily.
He grasped me by my wrist and pulled me onto the ground.
"Get in your chair in the corner or leave me be!", he said.
I got up and took my spot in the corner.
"Can I get an &$#$ answer!", he said even more furious.
"Yes, Ethan.", I said.
He got on his laptop and started working, while I saw frozen in my seat, I didn't dare to stand up and get some water. Luckily he got his first meeting in about 30 minutes.About 20 minutes later he got up and got down in front of me. His eyes scarily meeting mine. He places his hand on my upper leg but scratches me with his nails quickly. "I don't give you love fool, only when you are the perfect maid.", he said sharply. He stood up and went to his meeting. When he was out the door I could breathe again. I peeked through the door and saw him walking in the meeting room so I went to get some water.
"Good morning Eve!", said Aisha happily.
Aisha has been my best friend since Ethan's company started.
"Good morning Aisha!", I said with a smile and hugged her quickly.
"Any wishes for lunch Eve?".
"Oh no, I will have some fruit", I answered.
Aisha nodded and got back to work.
I made some coffee for the Meeting of Ethan and walked up to the meeting room.
"Oh, finally some coffee around here", said a client.
I gave them all coffee and waited for Ethan to send me away.
"And If you don't like the coffee just throw it on her", Ethan laughed.
They all laughed but one, Rychell, he was the biggest client in the room. He looked at me and his eyes went to the door, he wanted me to leave. I did and didn't look back.It was the end of the office day, Ethan was in his last meeting with the woman...
I waited in the lunch area and checked all my emails once again when Rychell came in.
"Oh, sorry Sir, you have to wait for Ethan", I said.
"I can wait for him ma'am, are you going with us to the restaurant?", He asked.
"I didn't know about this event, sir.", I said softly.
"He didn't tell you?", he asked.
I nodded.
He looked surprised. "I heard from Ethan that you have amazing ideas and smart tactics, I wouldn't know why you won't be there...", he said. "It's fine", I said with a little sad tone.
Aisha finished up her work and came to Eve to get her home, Eve with her head down and quiet.When Eve got home she went straight to bed but when Ethan came home... hell came to life. Eve startles awake when Ethan got in the bedroom, "Why the &%$# did you talk to him!?", Ethan said with a sharp and angry voice. "Why can't you avoid being a fool to all my clients?!", he then said.
Ethan picked Eve up by her wrists and pulled her up to him, "You're not allowed in the office anymore! You are going to work from home from now on you &%$#%", he screamed at me. He pushes her hard into the bed and picks her up again by her wrists. "I...I'm..", I tried to get out. "No! You're going to sleep on the floor by the window", he screamed. He dragged her to the window and threw her on the ground. "Stay.", he said with a cold voice. Without any blankets or pillows, she was laying on the ground. Cold and crying.
