Hayrah's P.O.V

I called Hajiya earlier telling her I can't make it to work, after insulting me and threatening to deduct it from my salary, she allowed me.

I feel sick today that's why I can't go to work.

Time has been moving so fast actually.

~~~

It's a Sunday morning and luckily for me I have no lectures today, and Alhamdulilah am feeling OK today.

After finishing my morning routine, I got ready for work.

"Hayrah!"
Someone shouted happily, I turned around and it was Safna.

God!!

I totally forgot they are coming back this week.

She engulfed me in a hug.

"Safna, when did you come back?" I asked her.

" I came back yesterday at night"

"Saf baby where are you?" A voice said.

I turned around and it was ..... Baby doll or what do I call her? I don't know.

She was dressed in a fitted gown, too tight if I might add.

How does she work in this thing seff.

God Hayrah you're judging her already. A voice in my head said.

Shut up!! am not judging her.

Whatever!!!

"Hayrah", someone said bringing me out of  my reverie.

"Ohhh sorry", I said to Safna.

"You spaced out, is everything OK?" She asked me.

"Am perfectly OK", I answered smiling at her.

I turned around to continue my work when I saw baby doll staring at me with disgust.

Well I've dealt with people worst than her.

How she got the name baby doll?
  I actually don't know that, her makeup is just ugghh, you get it?

Not to talk of the perfume that can be inhaled 10 kilometers away.
  Am not exaggerating, am just stating the fact.

" Hayrah meet my cousin, Jasrah".
Safna said.

"Hi, nice to meet you", I said to her.

She looked at me like I've grown two heads as she walked out of the kitchen.

I can't believe this girl.
    Jasrah or Jasmin or whatever she calls her self. Is not her fault, I think it was me trying to be nice.

"Hayrah don't mind her, that's how she's", Safna said apologetically.

"No problem you don't ha....."

"Safna what are you doing here? You came back yesterday night instead of you to be resting, this stupid thing called you here, don't tell me you're helping her to do her work".Hajiya appeared magically.

Yes magically because I don't know where she appeared from.

OK Madam Daughter, firstly I didn't call your daughter and secondly she isn't helping, I said In my head internally scowling at her.

" Get out of this kitchen this minute," Hajiya said to Safna.

"But Ummi", she started to say but was once again interrupted by Hajiya.

"I said get out", She shouted angrily.

" And you, if you don't know how to do your work, then tell me so that I can look for another person", she said glaring at me.

"Am sorry Hajiya, it will never happen". I said looking down.

"Better", she said.

It looks like something she can do,yeah throwing me out of her house is something she can do.

And I don't want that to happen.

Not anytime soon, maybe when I get what I want.
~~~

Unknown number: Am sorry for what happened earlier I will make it up to you.

I received this message while I was sitting with Inna Lami in the maids chamber waiting for the time to Cook lunch.
   So that I can go home.
Since Inna Lami is cooking Dinner today.

I decided to ignore the message but something told me to answer it.

Me: Who's this please?  I sent back.

Unknown number: Ohh sorry it's Safna.

She answered almost immediately, I quickly saved the number as SAFNA.

Me: Am so sorry, I didn't know. And for what happened you don't need to apologize, she was right after all.

SAFNA: No it wasn't right please, I will make it up to you. I promise.

Me: You don't have to.

SAFNA: No I have to. What about tomorrow are you free?

Me: I have school tomorrow and I have work you know.

SAFNA: OK when you finish work please wait for me in the garden

Me: OK since you insist, bye.

SAFNA: Bye.xoxo.

I finished cooking lunch by 3:25pm, I cleaned the whole living room and kitchen. I immediately made my way back home because honestly I don't want to meet Hajiya anytime soon.
