Episode 16
Bella
Should I tell the truth that my boss son took me out and I am the Cinderella or I just should forget about the whole thing?.
Well no need to even tell her, if my parents failed to recognize it was me, how can someone like Brenda recognize or even believe me when I tell her.
“So what about the make-up, when do you want me to do it for you hum?”, I changed the topic for her to end my boss son’s topic.
“Smart girl, trying to divert the discussion but no problem, all I know is that you two are a perfect match. As for the makeup, I want it done this Saturday but how can that even be possible when the boss already said I should release you off duty on Saturday” she said with a frown.
Oh, I remembered him telling me about releasing me from work on weekends so he can take me outing but that’s no more happening.
“Don’t worry, I will be around on Saturday because of you, I don’t even have much doing that very day.”
“You such a nice person Bella. I will get you cookies on Monday okay, I just want to look more beautiful this time around on the makeup you will be applying for me.”, Brenda said.
“With Bella involved, that shouldn’t be a problem to you okay? now I will be getting back to the kitchen to do some cleaning.” I said to her before leaving.

I finished at the Wilson and decided to go home.
Walking home, I couldn’t even stop playing the picture of my boss earlier today when he had the towel on his waist.
Getting inside the house, my mother welcomed me with a thunderous slap on my face and I lost balance falling on the floor holding the side of my face she slapped.
“Mom, did I do something wrong?” I said with tears running from my eyes.
“You useless child, you want to ruin our family name right? You are so useless and you don’t even know when to zip up.” Mom yelled.
I can’t believe I will be hurt today but I still don’t know where mom was driving.
“Mom I am sorry, what did I do please, I’m so sorry mom.” I said hoping she pitied me.
“You dare flirt with the boss’s son, you this flirty rag, you have no shame, if I get a call like this ever, or your money got deducted from your actual salary, I will design you that day”, she yelled out so much at me.
” Mom I didn’t,” I said with confidence but she just beat me up before I said another thing.
I can’t believe my boss called mom, but I’m happy she just decided to beat me up instead of Mrs. Wilson scolding me, now I’m free.

“Did you do what mom asked you to do for me?”, Joanna asked and I knew she was talking about my boss’s son’s friend but I didn’t do anything.
“Oh, that, I haven’t seen any of his friends yet”, I said to her but of a fact, I haven’t seen any friend of his come home yet.
“I just hope you saying the truth, maybe I should just tell mom you are not ready to do anything”, she said.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
I feel like pulling her hair for threatening me using mom. What a girl?
* Saturday*
After doing all the house chores at home, I didn’t tell my parents I was free at work this Saturday but I just left normally like I’m going to work to make sure I will be around to do Brenda’s make-up as I promised her.
It was time to do her makeup so I was focused on it for her transformation to be unique, and she looks at herself in the mirror and said, “OMG Bella you are skilled with this, I love it so much, why don’t you just work in a studio instead of wasting your time being a maid?”. She asked admiring her face.
I wish she understands what fate I have now, she won’t just think it’s easy.
I overheard Kyle’s voice, I don’t know why I started hurrying up, I don’t miss him right, so why am I hastening to see him now.
Kyle
I got prepared to take Clara out, wore my designer’s suit, and went to pick her from home.
She stood by the car door expecting me to be a gentleman by opening the door for her to sit.
I found it easy to do it for Bella but doing it for her looks like hell, I saw she wasn’t ready to get in unless I open.
I hit my steering and came down from the car to open the door for her, she went in and said, “Thanks to my love”, I just smiled briefly but I hate the manner in which she addreassed me.
I was still driving when I notice she wanted to hold my hands as she started smiling at me, I felt so uncomfortable with her so I just decided to take my hands off and focus on the steering.
“Don’t I look good today, you never complimented my outfit or appreciate my beauty, why not make the day a bit romantic for me?” She asked rolling her eyes.
“Oh I’m sorry, I wasn’t focused because I was thinking about work that I didn’t take note of the nice dress you got and you look fine too.”, I said out what she just needed to hear but sincerely it wasn’t from my heart.
“I can’t believe you are with me and still thinking about work hum, I’m offended at this”, she said.
“Oh am sorry, but please can you keep it low so I can focus on my driving please?”, I said to make her stop talking to me.
We got to the fancy restaurant and one thing I hate about her, she started acting like my girlfriend even when we were to order something from the menu, she says, “Get me what my boyfriend picked at the menu, will like to give a try”
I continued eating as she just kept looking at me smiling.
“What is the problem?”, I asked cause I was so unease with her stare.
“I was just admiring my lover, besides I’m getting bored on this date, you are not even saying anything, you didn’t even bother to ask about my welfare, you let me do all the talking, why?”, she said.
“Oh Clara, we are eating, I don’t wish to get choke so I don’t really talk while eating, okay,” I said to her but I just made it up.
I just wish to leave here already.

She forced herself to go home with me to spend some time, the reason I accepted was for mom to see or the maid to tell her then she knows I did what she said to the person she loves and not me.
I told her to sit in the living room while I get something from my room.
Coming downstairs I overheard her saying, “You look so familiar young lady, I feel I have seen you somewhere.”
“No ma, I’m just a new maid here ma.” Twas Bella’s voice.
“Oh, you are a maid, in my man’s house, I should start feeling insecure”.
” I don’t understand”, Bella said.
I decided fo rush down but Clara was too fast to say, “What I mean is for you to continue your maid stuff but don’t get close to Kyle my man”.
“Enough Clara, stop making her feel unease okay, let’s go in “, that’s the only way I can silence her.
My eyes meeting with Bella, I saw the sadness in her eyes, I wanted to make her understand is not what she thinks but I don’t owe her any explanation, she is not my girlfriend, yet I’m feeling guilty.
” Goodbye sir”, she said.
To be continued.
Oh, I see the love in your eyes, can you all see it too.
