008

ANOTHER morning came, since we don't have class today, I decided to type in the story for Eros. It was deleted in my laptop so I got to start from the very beginning. Eros James Martinez. Where did I heard that name? I thought for a couple of seconds then brushed it off since I don't really know. I started typing again when I heard a knock on the door.

"I got no class!" I said and heard nothing after that. When I reached a hundred words typing, I wondered how Eros came out of here. Am I in some fantasy book? Does he have some fairy godmother which helped him to get out of here? Or some genie in the lamp? What am I even thinking? This is what I get from watching too much Disney movies.

A knock on the door pulled me out of reverie. "Miss, your mother asked for your presence. She said that you need to be there"

"Give me a second" I started fixing myself before I got out. I found there the maid who scolded me last night. "Oh, you're still here"

"You're mother said I should return with you, Miss" I nodded and understood that she was ordered by my mother. We were walking on the hallway when I asked her "What's your name?"

She seemed shocked but still answered "My name's Amy, Miss" The same name on my story!

"How old are you, Amy?"

"I'm 18, Miss"

"We're both 18! Can you call me by my name?"

"I'm afraid I can't, Miss. I'm sure that our Head Maid already told you about the rules" I nodded and remembered that moment.

"I'll ask my mother, then" then smiled at her. I just needed someone I can talk to, in this house. I chose her because she didn't told my mother about last night. If she did, I will be called immediately that night and no 5 minutes conversation with Eros would've happened.

When I entered the dining room, my exclaimed "There you are, my daughter"

"You have no work, mom?" I asked and sat on my seat.

"It's a Saturday, right? We should bond today" she said while smiling. I nodded and didn't made it obvious that I'm excited for this day.

"Oh, mom. I kinda need someone who will assist me here in our home. Can you make Amy my personal maid? Please?"

"Sure. I'll inform everyone to take her out of the chores she's assigned to"

"Thank you!" then I smiled widely.

"Finish your breakfast. After that, we'll head to mall" I nodded and ate. I went straight to my room and picked an outfit.

Another knock on the door was heard and I immediately walked to see Amy smiling. I smiled back.

"I was instructed to go here, Miss"

"Yep! Come in, help me choose some clothes"

"Should I pick this one" I showed her the navy blue sleeveless dress on my left hand. "Or this one?" then showed her a white cashmere pullover sweater that has a logo of Chanel on it's left side.

"What will you put with that sweater, Miss?" I, then showed her a skinny jeans and Gucci belt.

"This the first time my mom asked me to go with her. What I should wear should be perfect for this day" she nodded like she understood why I'm like this.

We've decided to put on my open shoes I got from Chanel, it is black and white but it looks pretty then got my Louis Vuitton Rendez-Vous bag to complete the look. I put on some liptint and cologne.

"Your mother must be waiting for you, Miss" we went out and saw my mother waiting in the living room. She's wearing a brown slacks paired with also brown blazer. A white shirt underneath, she even have a black belt, black stilettos and Christian Dior book tote bag.

"You're pretty. Shall we go?" I nodded and hid my smile. I thought it would be Mr. Balmund who will drive us to the mall. I was shocked when Eros on his white long sleeves, black slacks and brown Italian shoes opened the door for us. He even smiled as if he noticed my shocked. When I sat down comfortably in the backseat, that's when he closed the door. He ran to the driver's seat, opened the door and closed it. He started driving.

"Eros, come with us inside the mall. We need someone who'll carry bags" Mother said while scrolling through her phone.

Still, Eros nodded and said "Yes, Ma'am"

When I looked at the rear view mirror, I caught him looking at me then smiled. I also smiled back because I didn't want to be rude but what I did made him smile more. Like the smile with his teeth. I rolled my eyes at him and looked at the window.

I heard him laugh which was heard by my mother "Yes, Eros?"

"Nothing, Ma'am" I stopped myself so hard to not laugh at him.

There it is. The mall. Eros parked the car and we got off the car. I heard the short beep from the car and the half-run of Eros. As soon as we went inside, mom already asked what we should buy.

"Anywhere you wanna go"

"Okay, Let's find some bags"

"We stopped by a designer brand and wandered around it. My mom raised her hand and someone instantly walked in to assist my dear mother.

"Do you have a private closet here? I seem to not like the displayed bags here" I was shocked that she said it in her normal voice, she didn't even whisper to avoid offending anyone who can hear her.

"With all due respect, Ma'am. Do you have your membership card? That's the only way to access that specific place you want to be in" My mother showed her a gold card and the clerk immediately nodded and lead us the way to the private closet they have. The place is a little tiny that the one outside. The mirrors around is also their cabinet. The clerk showed her five different bags. She examined it each one closely and even nodded her head.

"I'll take this five"

The clerk once again nodded and said "Proceed to the counter, Ma'am. I'll just arrange your orders"

We went back and payed for the bags. When everything is settled, Eros brought it then we went from one store to another. We literally went shopping spree. She bought clothes, perfumes, bags and even shoes for her and mine. It's fun but tiring. I looked back to Eros while were walking and saw how many bags he got.

"You need help? I could bring those tiny bags" the tiny bags contains perfumes.

"Thank you for the offer, Miss but it's fine. It's not that heavy"

"Really"

"Yep. Leave it to your handsome driver" he even winked. I laughed at his silliness and was called by my mother to catch up to her. "Go"
