"Hey, you're leaving already? I made breakfast,why don't you grab a bite before leaving?" I asked as I drew out the chair.
He was already dressed to leave for work but I felt like cooking and serving him, not like a duty on anything but I was bored and needed to do something around the house.
"Me?" He asked looking around.
"Yes, I made breakfast."
"Did you skip any part of the contract?" He asked walking close to me.
"Of course not, I read everything." I answered confused at his question.
"What has the breakfast got to do with the contract?" I added.
"Exactly, that's the same question I should be asking you; what has the contract got to do with breakfast? Did it state anywhere that I want you to be in my kitchen making breakfast for me?" He snapped at me.
"I was bored and just decided to make something, I just wanted to share."
"That's why I have the maids, not 1 or 2 but 10 of them to do this" he said pointing at the food neatly served on the table.
"You think I trust you enough to have you preparing breakfast for me? Girl go to your room and only come out when you're needed. You think last night kiss meant anything to me? You know what you're here for and making breakfast won't make me give you more than what we agreed on" He added and walked out of the dining room.
I was pissed, pissed at the fact that he had looked down on me and the fact that he implied that I was trying to get him to take him seriously with food. I knew why I was here and it wouldn't make me become less of a human.
But then the tears still pricked at the corners of my eyes, I couldn't remember the last time someone talked down on me, maybe the incident with my ex husband. Who does he think he is? Does the world revolves around me him? I'll be the most foolish woman on earth if I was to ever share a bed with this man.
The kiss was nice but it had been only used to convince the world we were in love,it wouldn't happen again except when necessary and knew that.
"You shouldn't have made him breakfast,I don't know how long you guys have been together before the marriage but young master is selective with people who touch his food. Don't cross your boundaries." The housekeeper said and walked to the kitchen.
I had been so lost in thought that I didn't see her come in, she had warned me earlier before going to shop for the groceries but I had been to adamant.
"Don't mind her, she's always like that when Sir Jamil brings new girls home,she thinks they're all with him because of his money,she also doesn't like the fact that someone else is sharing his attention with her, you know with the other girls,they leave eventually but yours seems permanent."
"I'll advise you don't mind her, you don't seem like a bad person like she says , I'm Katherine." The young girl said extending her hands for a handshake.
I took it , still looking at her.
"You don't have to look at me like that though I don't bite, I'm the youngest here, I'll be 19 next month, I'm working as the grocery shopper here,if that's a real name. I work part time."
"It's a pleasure to meet you Katherine,you didn't go grocery shopping today?" I asked.
"Well, she insisted on going today, probably to keep herself busy while you were in the kitchen." She said and we both laughed.
This was the first normal conversation I've had here since I came and laughing with another person just made the heart ache less.
"She's not an awful person though, she's just not used to sharing, we've all had our fair share, trust me, you'll like her if you get to know her."
"I'll be looking forward to that."
We talked more and I finally decided to go upstairs and rest my head, we ended the conversation with a promise to always hang out together in the house as long as I was willing to live here.
I laid down on my bed smiling because of the new friend I had made, till I slowly drifted off to sleep .
~•~
I had not realized my body took the sleep thing a little too much till I woke up with a banging headache, a part from the sleep and the other from the loud noise threatening to spoil my eardrums.
I quickly put on my robe and went downstairs to find the housemaids arranging drinking glasses.
"Excuse me please,what's going on?" I asked no one in particular.
"The master is having a party in his room." She said as she continued her duty.
"Party? and why does it have to be so loud?" I asked angrily.
I didn't wait for their reply,I matched to his room, the door was wide open,he was indeed holding a party with some ladies who were butt naked and pouring bottles of drinks into each other's mouth.
"What is happening here Jamil?" I asked.
"A party and you're not invited." He said his speech slurring.
I knew he was drunk,what sort of a business ma gets drunk on a Wednesday afternoon? Who hosts party by this time?
"Please reduce the music,we can barely hear ourselves and it's not the appropriate time for any sane person to be hosting a party,don't these girls have jobs or something?" I shouted.
He walked past me and pulled another girl unto his legs, ignoring me.
I stood their shocked as they continued, touching each other and exchanging drinks from their mouth.
"Can you send her away? I'm not comfortable having her here." One of the girls said fixing me a glare.
"You heard her." He said looking at me. "Or do you want me to pull you down here and take more than the contract stated?" He asked with a smirk.
Whack!
I heard the sound before I could process what I had just done,the girls all closed their mouth in shock.
I just slapped the youngest billionaire in the country,Jamil Manson,in front of people lower than him with someone holding up her phone.
Was she taking videos?
I was done for.
