Majestic Place

Sophie-

This Car was even more luxurious inside, with the plushiest seats I have ever sat on. It even had a mini bar for drinks. These rich people could really make anything possible. I was marvelling at the interior of the car, when I noticed that the car has stopped. That might only mean that we have reached our destination. I looked out the window to see where we were and was left with my mouth hanging open. Standing before me was a large mansion in its full glory. It was majestic and stood three stories tall. Even in the darkness, It's white walls were glowing with elegance. The Driver got off the car and opened the door for me. I came out of my stupor and remembered why I was here. I quickly got out and was about to get the things out of the car, when two people in uniforms came and approached us,

" Miss, We are here to bring it inside." One of the two men, who was almost my age said it. Oh great, Why was not I expecting it? I could easily take them inside but I didn't wanted to argue. So, I waited at the side and the two men started unloading the boxes. They were fast and it didn't even take them 5 minutes to take them inside. I guess my work was done here. I don't know how to get back and it was already very late. The driver was there with me, I had no choice but to ask him to take me back to the bakery. From there, Ava could come and pick me up. Since they had finished taking all the boxes inside, I went to the Driver," Mr...." There was a bage on his uniform which had his name 'John' "John. Would you mind taking me back to the bakery. I would have gone by myself but I don't know the way back." Maybe he would take me." But Miss. I can't take you now." Oh god, he was not going to take me. But what did he mean by now? Would he take me later but where will I go till then? " No worries Mr. John. If you have something to do now, I can wait for you." I could wait in the car till he gets done with whatever he has to do.

"No Miss. You don't need to wait for me. Boss has directed me to take you to the party to arrange the cookies and the pastries for the party. Mrs. Jenkins was already informed about it." What? I have to go inside this MANSION. I thought my work was done here. Mrs. Jenkins hadn't mentioned it to me. She just told me to deliver the boxes. I had no intention of going inside. With the amount of the staff here doing the work, I don't think it would be difficult for them to serve these. It was not that much work, you just have to put them on a huge plate and serve. Why do I have to go inside? I hate to be any public situations. " I didn't know about it. I was just told to deliver the boxes." I was hoping that he would understand and talk to his boss. I was exhausted and wanted to go home. " Sorry Madam. But I have been given strict instructions to make sure that the boxes be delivered and be presentable for the guests." Mr. John gave an apologetic look. I was not getting out of this. I have to comply and hope that it will be done quickly so I can go back. I gave him a nod and he lead the way for me. I followed him and we were not going through the front door. He was taking me from some sort of a back door. The people in uniforms were coming and going through this door. Oh, So this must be where the Staff would be. That was a relief. I can do my work and get out ASAP. The door opened into a long hallway. It was elegant with Chrome marbles lining the floor. The walls were a light beige colour and adorned with what-I-thought was the family portraits. The hallway was lit with bright lights. I was mesmerized and felt like a princess in a Palace. I have never been to any place like this. Mr. John led me through an open door. Many people were going there. I entered after Mr. John into the largest kitchen I have ever seen. It was like a big hall. It was filled with people in uniforms doing all sorts of work. The boxes which I had brought were placed on a large table. The one side of the kitchen had all the appliance's which a person would ever need in a kitchen. The chefs in uniform were busy there making the food. The Aroma that was coming from there Ahhhhh. My stomach started rumbling and that's when I realized that I didn't have any food since forever. I didn't even had lunch today. " Miss. Here you find everything you need." He pointed towards a middle aged women who was also in uniform. " She will help you in unloading these." With that, Mr. John left me there all alone. I wanted to tell him to stay there. All this was unfamiliar for me. I focused on the work ahead and with the help of the Mrs. Lara, my helper I got started. I wanted to get it done with and leave. "These cookies look beautiful." Lara commented on seeing the cookies." Thank you, Lara." I asked her how to plate these. I had thought that you just have to put them on a large plate but that was not the case here. Lara told me that we have to plate then each separately and make it presentable for the so-called guests. What was with these people? Couldn't they just take them on a plate from the buffet like you are supposed to do. I could not do anything about it now. So, I just got to work and started plating them carefully. I was immersed in my work and was even enjoying it, when the place became eerily quite. I was confused as to what happened which made everyone silent when I heard his voice,

" How is everything going? " This voice, I had heard it somewhere, this rich musky voice. I looked up to see who it was and my jaw literally dropped. It was Mr. Jerk talking to someone in the middle of the room. I could only see his side profile but I knew it was Him in a black tuxedo which hugged his muscular body. His hair was just like before, messy with strands touching his forehead. Everyone in the kitchen was standing on alert. I didn't wanted him to see me, I know he wouldn't remember me but I guess it was better to be safe than sorry. I moved to the side to stand behind so he wouldn't see me when a loud noise broke the silence. It was me, my hand had come in contact with a glass bowl and it fell from the table breaking into thousands of sharp strands. Everyone looked my way and the silence became deathly. I saw pure horror on everyone's face. I looked in his direction and saw that his obsidian eyes were throwing daggers at me. He looked pissed. God, I was finished today.
