"Yes Sir. But I have been waiting and watching her to take the right step. And most importantly, I need your approval. I don't want to be ungrateful to do such in your house."
Alex was looking at him as he voiced what seemed so dear to him.
"Okay." He bent the handle of his door and went into his room. James was still standing close to the door when Alex closed his door. It was as if Alex was dreaming.
"What just happened?" He shook his head as he first sat down. "What have I done? Why did I allow my feelings to push me to say those words to my maid? She lied to me. No, no." He hit his fingertips on the table. Does she think she is so smart that she can successfully date me and my butler? That is nonsense, a let down on my way. I should have been patient enough. Oh! no. Can you imagine? I wanted to engage her because of my uncontrollable feelings for her. But right now, the words of James, I will distance myself from her." Alex stood up from the chair and took his car key.
"What if James did not tell me? Hmm…" he hummed. "Sometimes, it's very good to have a loyal and obedient butler. His request saved me from my actions and shame. What's wrong if she tells me James is her boyfriend? She must be a gold digger." When he was close to his door, he said to herself again.
"Right from the first day she came to this house, she requested a front payment of her salary." He sighed and opened the door.
"Her silly attitude has made me lose the emotions I have for her. What was I thinking?" He thought. Instead of going up to his art gallery, he went down, shaking his car key in his right hand. When he got to the first floor, he saw Loveth sitting and there was a welcoming smile on her face. Without exchanging words with her, Alex went out of the house, got into his car and drove away.
All this while, Elisa had been waiting for Alex to come back. She waited and waited close to ninety minutes, but Alex never came back. She started to wonder what must have happened to him. After repeatedly feeding her eyes with the various art works on the wall, she decided to come out of the gallery and to meet Alex in his room.
At that moment when Elisa was coming out of the gallery, she had almost spent close to two hours.
"Where has he gone to?" She kept asking herself. She wanted to use the lift, but decided to use the stairs. Gradually, she stepped her foot on the stairs and the silence of the entire house was unusual. She kept going down and when she was close to the floor of Alex's bedroom, she heard some noise.
"What's he doing inside his room that he forgot about me?" She thought and walked closer. The more she walked close to the door, the more she was able to coordinate what seemed to be a noise when she was far into proper words. What she was hearing made her more curious and she walked closer and closer. The person's voice she heard was the voice of Loveth and she was moaning aloud.
"Oh my god, yeessss, yes, yes, don't stop Alex. I love you. Hard..y please, harder. I can feel you in my entire body. What will that stupid maid give you that I can't give you in abundance? You are the sweetest thing I have ever tasted. Ah… yes, hmmm… Please give me your permit to put that good for nothing maid in her proper place before I throw her out of the house. Hardy, hardy...Aaaargh, aaargh, aaargh, that's it..." Loveth screamed aloud again.
Elisa immediately felt an imaginary snow bath and a cold feeling went down her spine. She couldn't wait to hear more of Loveth's screaming in her sexual pleasure. She entered the lift, instead of the stairs and went to her room.
"What have I done? I guess this was a test and I fell for it. Why would he lie to me? I'm finished. My instinct was telling me never to accept my master's words. It was a trap."
She took her phone and called her best friend, Sophia.
"Hi Sophia, please are you at home?" She spoke in haste.
"No. I am at a grocery store."
"Please can we see? I'm in a big mess."
"What mess?" Sophia increased her voice with a great feeling, "don't tell me they have fired you."
"Which of the groceries' store?" Elisa Interrupted.
"Do you know what? Let's meet at the front of Green's Park."
"I'm coming there right now." Elisa ended the call. She looked around to see if there was something she had to do before going out of the house. She saw that her dress was still wet from the water Loveth poured on her. She hurriedly changed her gown, took her small bag and left the house without anyone seeing her. The time was 11:10 AM and she has some free time to herself before she will start preparing lunch.
The Green Park was an amusement park and Elisa was the first to get there. When she came down from the cab. She looked at the gate to see if Sophia had arrived, then she crossed the road and stood at the left side of the gate. It was a working day and only a few people were heading into the park. Just a short time of standing and waiting, Elisa became impatient, she took her phone and called Sophia again.
"Where are you? I'm already here."
"I'm very close," Sophia replied and before Elisa could say something, Sophia ended the call. Elisa walked into the park. The gate was opened. There were green grasses at the entrance and also shielding trees at the left and right. Elisa went under one of the trees and sat on the concrete bench and her eyes were fixed on the gate.
A few minutes later, she saw Sophia entering the park and she was about to dial Elisa's phone number.
"Look at me," Elisa shouted and waved her right hand. Sophia turned and saw her and walked towards her.
"What's the matter?" Sophia saw anxiety in her eyes. Elisa refused to say something at first. She sat and was looking at the green field.
"How I wish my boss had not paid me three months ahead, I would have run away from this job. If I do, Alex might call the man who linked me to this job. I don't want to make a negative remark about myself."
"You haven't told me what happened."
"Sophia, I have made a fool of myself today. Big humiliation on my part." She stood up and walked around the tree.
"As in?" Sophia followed her with her eyes.
