Elvis woke up to sound of his phone ringing.
“Yes??” he said into the phone, his voice heavy with sleep.
”It’s your mother” the voice said calmly over the phone.
”What?” he replied.
”No greetings?”
”Get straight to the point or I hang up”
”Fine, I employed a maid for you to assist with your house cleaning” she said.
”I don’t need one” he replied gruffly, annoyed with the fact that she dared employed one without my knowledge.
You can say Elvis and his mum doesn't have the best relationship. Well it’s all her fault, if she hadn’t disrupted his wedding, called his wife to be a fraudster and got her arrested, things would still be normal.
It’s nice to know that Mara was found guilty of whatever accused her of and she was given life imprisonment but mum shouldn’t have disrupted the wedding that way!
”Are you there?” She asked.
”I don’t need a maid, I’m perfectly okay, I don’t know why you care” he said.
”She’s coming and that’s final” she replied sternly
”I SAID I DON’T WANT ONE!” he shouted but she had hung up.
Ugh……….
He threw the phone at the wall in anger, this woman should stop interfering in my life!
He stood up and head to the bathroom, there’s no use trying to sleep again. She has successfully made my day begin badly, he murmured.
He showered and dressed, preparing for the day ahead.
His home phone rang, only a few people know the number.
He went over and answered.
”Yes?”
”You have a meeting with Sky company in exactly one hour and thirty minutes sir” his PA voice came through the phone.
” Okay Pat, I’ll be there very soon” he hung up and knotted his tie, looking at the mirror.
***********************
Lucy woke up very early and pack every bit of her luggages.
She picked a short fleyed skirt to wear, a crop top and black sandals.
She packed her hair in a ponytail, applied little makeup.
Mum always told me that first impression lasts longer, she said to herself.
She rolled her luggages out to the next compound where her boss lives and went to bade them goodbye.
“We’ll miss you Lucy, you’re really the best” His wife hugged her.
“It’s really nice working with you ma’am” she smiled and hugged other family members.
A car hooted outside.
“My ride is here” she announced and baded them farewell again.
“Are you really going?” One of my soon to be old colleagues asked.
“Yeah why?” she narrowed her eyes.
“Nothing. Wish you a good journey ahead, we won’t miss you though”.
Lucy scoffed and walked to her ride.
She put in her luggages and sat, just before she closed the car door, she replied him.
“Guess what, I won’t miss you too. We’re even then” she slammed the door and sat back in the car. This is going to be a long ride.
AFTER SOME HOURS DRIVE
Lucy got down from the car and took a look at her surroundings.
The house is really big and beautiful.
The driver drove off, leaving her all alone.
She walked to the front steps and raised her hand to knock.
The door opened to reveal a handsome dude, the CEO himself.
