"Another Day"

It was just like any other Saturday. I woke up from the rays of the sunlight sipping through behind my curtains. I looked at my clock beside me and it was already past 8 am in the morning.

I still felt sleepy but I need to wake up right now cause my whole day is scheduled by my tutors. I cant be late even for a second or my assignments will be tripled.

"ughh!" I groaned.

"This is why I hate Saturdays. Well I just have to bear it again today and tomorrow I'll be free for the whole day" I thought in my mind while I changed my night gown into my formal clothes.

After I finished changing, I was about to go down and eat my breakfast. I opened the door and saw one of our maids in front of my door. I looked at her, it looks like that she was about to open my door.

She gasp for a minutes and bowed down to me and started fidgeting her fingers.

"young miss. I was about to wake you up. Master and Madam are waiting for you in the dining room!" The maid said while she was shaking.

"It's seems that she's scared" I thought in my mind. I heaved a sigh.

"Rise... Why are you bowing down to me? I'm not a princess am I?!" I told her.

She flinched and quickly raise, she was still shaking. "Ye... Yes miss!" she answered.

"From the looks of it, she seems new here. This is the first time that I saw her here in the house. And she looks young, maybe she's in her 15 or 16." I thought in her mind.

"Why are you shaking?... Am I scary?... That hurts me you know" I told her and made a sad face.

She gasped and looked at me. "No... No miss, it's just that I'm new here and I'm quite shy" she said.

"so your new here, how old are you?" I asked her and went back to my cheerful pace.

"Yes, I am new here, and I am 15 years old miss"

"That's too young! what are you doing here working, aren't you supposed to go to school?!" I grabbed both of her hands and yelled at her.

She started shaking all over again. "My mother is working here so I decided to go and help her. I saw one of the maids uniform in the storage and went to try it cause it's so pretty. Then my mom was about to wake you up here but was ordered to help first in the garden, that's why I came here instead... And yes! I go to school every weekdays." She told me fastly. She looks like she was about to cry.

When I saw tears flowing out from her eyes, I quickly let go of her and apologized.

'I'm sorry, I was just shocked to see that there is a 15 year old girl working here. and who is your mother again?!" I asked her.

"OH!, her name is Mirella Salvador." she answered.

I twitched. "Mirella?... Oh, I remember her, she used to be one of my nannies in the past but my parents made changes. She was moved to the cleaning department right. She has been working here since I was little" I thought in my mind.

I deliberately forgot the time now so "You said Dad and Mom are waiting for me in the dining room right?!" I asked her.

"Uhmm, Yes!" She said confusedly.

"Ok. Oh before I forgot my name is Nicole and you are?" I introduced my self to her and wished to know her name.

"my name is Zoey Salvador" she answered.

"Don't be shy, now that we have introduced ourselves, Let's be Friends!" I said to her and smiled brightly.

"Well yeah sure!." she said and blushed a little.

"I'll see you later, have to eat my breakfast" after I said that I ran and waved at her.

I hurriedly went to the dining room to see that Mom and Dad were still there waiting for me. I sat the opposite of my Dad. The other maids served our food one by one while the others arranged our plate ware in front of us.

"Sorry to keep you waiting earlier" I told Mom and Dad.

"That's okay, you must've had a good night sleep, right?!" Mom said.

Dad smiled at us. "Yeah." and we served ourselves the food we want to eat.

I had a sunny side up egg, bacons, salad and some fried rice with carrots in it and I only had water for my drinks. I also had some of my favorite mushroom soup that was specially cooked by Mom this morning.

I was so happy. Mom and Dad are usually in the company this hour of the Saturday. I can't believe that they even waited for me and eat with them together, so I asked.

"So, aren't you supposed to be at the company this hour?!" I asked.

"I had Charles do the work this morning, besides we of course need to make time for our cute little princess!" Dad said and giggled, Mom followed.

"Aww, Thank you!, Mom, Dad" I stand up and came to hug them. They also hugged me back and and kissed both sides of my cheeks. We giggled.

After that I went back to my seat to continue eating my breakfast.

After a while, Mom stopped and made an announcement.

"Oh say!, Next month my friend from Russia will come and visit here with her family." Mom said

"Oh, then that would be great. I think we should prepare then." Dad said.

"She also has a son whose 1 year older than you I think, and a daughter whose age are the same as yours." Mom spatted.

"Really?!, then can I be friends with them?!" I asked them.

"Yeah, why not?" Mom and Dad said.

After hearing it, I got extremely happy and excited at the same time.

I finished eating my food and it was already 9:47 am. My tutor starts at 10:00 am sharp.

"Oh no!, I'm going to be late" I said in my thought.

I bid farewell to Mom and Dad and quickly went to my study room, My teacher was already there. But luckily I was on time.

I finished all of my classes for the day. History, Language, Mathematics, Etiquette and Sports. I finished all of it at 5:30 pm. I was so exhausted that I laid on my bed the moment I entered my room. I felt relaxed for a moment and continued laying down.

I knew that I have to take a bath, cause I stench of sweat from all of the training I had earlier. Luckily My teacher didn't gave me any assignments, so tomorrow I'll have the whole day By myself. hehe.

I entered my bathroom and filled the bathtub with warm water. After the bathtub was full I entered it and soaked my whole body in it's warm water. I scrubbed my arms, legs and body with soap. I also coated my hair with bubbles of my favorite Strawberry- mint scented shampoo. I stayed and soaked myself with the fragrance of my soap and with the warmness of the water. I felt so relaxed and warm and I ended up staying for so long that my body started to wrinkle.

My body felt numb all over when I started to stand up. I washed my whole body and removed the bubbles with the shower and got out from the bathroom. I already changed into my nightgown and ordered one of the maids to bring me food.

Since Mom and Dad will be late tonight, I'll just eat here in the room.

When I finished It was already 7: 25 in my clock. It was still early but I already felt tired and sleepy. I yawned. I was about to sleep and put on my blankets when someone knocked on my door.

'knock, knock' I heard someone knocking.
