Can i buy you a book?

Chapter 7 I left it

I took a shower and made myself some coffee. I was thinking about the day. It wasn’t that bad at all. Even though I was seeping the coffee like its juice, habit, my eyes were going crazy to shut. I didn’t even know why I was so tired. Its maybe the rain or maybe I caught c-

“Haaaccchhhhhooooo!” cold. Urgh I hate catching cold. It’s disgusting. To make me feel less sick, if that is even possible I ran to my beds and jumped onto it, “Super wommaaann!” and landed nicely. Pulled the covers on my face and before I knew it sleep dragged me in.

I could hear faint sound. To lazy to get up, I was trying to wake up. Two people had the key to the apartment. Daphney and the maid. Yes I had a maid who worked for me because my dad is a huge business man back in BD and has tons of money so he sends them for me and so does Daphs mom who is a huge fashion designer and earns a lot. So yeah for students studying in University and doing just a simple job in a supermarket we are too good to run such a nice apartment.

I yawned. I always thought yawning makes you sleepier but no it just kicks your sleep out and here I am blabbing again. Do I ever stop? “Haaachhooo!!” grrrr I so hate cold. It fucks my brain. I even get a tad bit bitchy too. The maid got inside my room. Yeah I call her the maid cause I don’t know her name. Don’t intend to cause for some reason Daph has a habit of changing them every month. The last one lasted more less though, only for 3 weeks. I didn’t even bother ask why cause every time it is either the maid flirts with her boyfriend or they don’t wash the cloth properly. This one time she changed the maid because she thought the maid is too pretty to be a maid.

I was smiling a little thinking about it and suddenly there was an ear-numbing loudness. I was covering my ears with the blanket. My head was throbbing so hard. Damn this cold. It was just the door bell and I felt like a bomb blasted.

Aww it was Rose and her cute little ones. They ran to me.

“You look terrible. Ok kids leave her alone. She needs medicine and I don’t want any of you sick.” The first one was for me and the threats for the 5 years old and 14 years old.

I just smiled. Even after their mother’s warning they kissed me and left for chocolates that I always stored in my fridge.

“They are so cute you know.” I said admiring the kids.

“Oh don’t go on their looks. They are monsters” she chuckled and I followed.

“You still love them. I hate medicine.” I whined when she was giving me the the square and circle bitter ugly stuff.

“No, no excuses. Swallow.” She ordered me.

I growl. “Not very lady like” she said.

I smiled and took those disgusting things.

“Thaaaasshhh!!!”” a huge sound startled us both.

Even though it was cold I left the comfy bed and blanket and ran out with Rose. It was the girls. They broke Daph’s favorite vase. The maid was standing right next to them.

“Aight! You’r fired!” Daph broke the silence and all the wide eyed glares that were fixated towards the broken vase.

“you are back?” I gave her a hug.

The maid was staring at Daph. Poor her it wasn’t even her fault. The girls ran and hid behind their mother.

“Daph it wasn’t her fault. Leave it. She has been working for only 3 days. You better not give me lame excuses either. She is staying. That is enough.” I told her annoyed.

It wasn’t because of how long she has been here it was because the reason I hired her. I hired her because she has a sick mom and needs money to take care of them. Firing her would mean no money for family.

“Oh come on you party pooper. I was going to hire a guy maid this time. Add cute to that too.” She said all sing song way.

I frowned.

“What happened to being too pretty for working?” Rose asked while the maid was busy cleaning the area.

I laughed on that. The kids started laughing too.

“Oh I forgot why I came in the first place. Here take this.” With that rose handed me the book. The book the guy gifted me.

“Why do you have it?” I asked rose

“Cause the gentle man was nice enough to drive all over to the book store and beg me to give you the book. Seems like a good one. Might as well give it a shot.” She said wiggling her eyebrows.

“Storryyyy timmee!!!” Daph exclaimed.

“Daph! Slow down a little. It hurts my head and no, no story time and no giving him chance.” With that I took the book and walked to my room, closing it behind me. I need another sleep.
