A Night with Mr Arrogant (episode 30)


Episode 30

“I.. I.. I think…” Jackson pause and look at him. Bright raises his eyebrows urging him to continue. “I think I’m in love with her”

“Oh my bloody dick” He exclaims and jump up from his chair. “I knew it!” He sits back down. “So, are you gonna tell her?”

“Tell her what?” Jackson asked.

He lowers his voice.
“About your past” he said.

I shake my head.
“No!”

“But if you two become a couple, you’ll have to tell her sooner or later”

“It’ll be later. I need to be sure that she won’t leave me when she knows about it, I can’t afford to lose her. I need to make sure she can handle the truth about me” Jackson said.

Bright thinks about it for some minutes, then he nods in agreement.

“So when are you going to ask her out?” He asks.

“Do I need to rush in that?” Jackson asked.

He opens his mouth and look at me in disbelief.

” Jackson, you need to rush the process. What if some other guy ask her out?. And let me remind you, Mirabel is the finest of God’s creations” he pause and look behind if I'm coming.
When he’s sure I'm not, he continues.

“She’s got all the curves in the right place, she’s got nice short legs, big ass, full breast…. ” Jackson smack the back of his head.

” I said stop checking her out!” Jackson growled at him.

I don’t like when guys check out Mirabel, I’m selfish, I know, Jackson said.

“All I’m saying is that if I can see how sexy… I mean, how beautiful she is, then other guys can too. So don’t waste anymore time” Bright said.

He’s right though. And I’m the kind of person who takes what he wants, and Mirabel is who I want, Jackson said.

“If I ask her out on dinner tonight, wouldn’t it be too forward of me?” Jackson asked.

“No! Even the Bible says for the kingdom of God suffers violence and the vi… ”

” Okay, I get it Bright” Jackson interrupted him.

” Good, after breakfast I’ll wait for you in the car while you ask her. Don’t screw this up” he said.

I frown.

” Am I still your boss?”
He laughs nervously..

“Don’t temper with my paycheck, Jackson!” He said.

“It’s a good thing we still know our places”

“You are no fun” Bright said an huff, he cross his arms across his chest and starts to sulk.

Jackson laugh at his childish behavior. This is just how our relationship work.

Finally my job is done, this dumb head has finally accept his feelings.
Hmm, I think I should be a matchmaker, Bright said.

******************************
Mirabel's Room

  I changed into a tank top and my cute Dora the explorer sweatpants. I observe myself in front of my mirror and smiled satisfactory.
This will do for now.
I’m about to head out when my phone begin to ring. It’s Victor calling.

My Strict Housemaid (episode 11)


Episode 11

She took off her glasses.
Elvis opened his mouth to talk but nothing came out.
“Hi Sir, I forgot to add water and an apple juice to your lunch” she said and passed a paper bag to me. “Have a nice day and by the way, the jewelry is beautiful.” She stood.

Okay….this is getting out of hand. He turned to give her a piece of his mind but she had already left.
He went back to work and refused to talk to anybody. When he entered his office, the lunch bag wasn’t there anymore thanks to Pat, he said in his mind.

Lucy didn’t want to visit his company since they aren’t close so she did the only thing she could think of which is placing an order and prayed either him or Pat would come out to deliver the order instead.
Luck shone on her when she saw him enter the coffee shop. She got down to business and gave him the water and apple drink she forgot to add to his lunch bag.
She strolled the environment before going home.
She watched movies till night fall. It was 9pm and he wasn’t back from work.
At last, he opened the front door around 10pm. Lucy knows he’s still angry at her and she don’t see why he has to be angry. She only wanted to give him water and his apple drink. Can’t she get a thank you for that??

“Welcome” she said quickly, not giving him a chance to talk ” I was waiting for you. Go to the kitchen and heat up your food, it’s on the cabinet and when you’re through, close the shutters, switch off the lights, lock the doors and retire to your room. Good night” she said and went to her room and soaked herself in a hot tub.

Pat's Apartment
“Did I tell you Jane?” Pat asked his wife as they sat across each other eating.
“Tell me what?” She replied with a mouthful.
” Elvis has a maid” he grinned.
“Tell me another joke” she said in a surprised manner.
“Have I ever lied to you Jane?” Pat put a hand over his chest.
“Yes” she replied.
“When?”
“Today, when I called at lunch, you told me you were eating the food I prepared for you but you were eating another instead” she said.
Unbelievable….why did you give me a witch as wife??
“How…di….did y-you know?” Pat stuttered.
“Call it a woman’s sixth sense, especially a wife’s”
“Well believe me now, Elvis has a maid and it was her food I was eating when you called” I felt pleased with myself to be the first telling her.
“Can we visit this weekend?” Her eyes lit up.
“Don’t tell me you want to matchmake them.” he asked.
“No, I’m going to warn her to stay away from Elvis so he doesn’t hurt her and do exactly as he says. I hope she lives through till I get there” she said.

My Strict Housemaid (episode 10)


Episode 10

Don’t worry Sir, I’m only training you on housekeeping in case I leave”.
He scoffed in response and slammed the front door.
He dropped the trash bags in the trash cans and entered his car.
He was about driving out when she knocked on the car window. He rolled it down and looked at her expectedly.
” You forgot this” she said and threw a lunch pack on the seat “buh- bye”
He rolled the window up and drove to the office in a foul mood.

“What’s it?” Pat asked as soon as Elvis entered his office.
“Can you believe this, she made me take the trash out and called my mother, telling her that I love her”.
“She’s good at making her points” Pat grinned.
“What do I do?” Elvis asked.
“Nothing else the media might have an interesting story on you which would affect the company.”
“You never give a good advice” Elvis said to Pat.
“Thank heavens you know” he smiled
“What’s that?” He added indicating at the lunch pack sitting on the table. Why did I even take it?
“Nothing much”
“She packed lunch for you?” Pat asked him.
“Yeah!!! Do I look like kindergarten to her?”
“Can I have it if you aren’t going to eat it?” Pat asked.
He sent daggers to him, “I’m lamenting and you are talking about food. Do you ever not think about anything else but food?”
“No… I mean yes like for example someone made an order online to see one of the most beautiful jewelry from the accessories department. Maybe you should take the other out so you can have a clear head.” said Pat.
“For once in your life, you gave a good idea. Package the order and give me”.
“Yes Boss” he saluted and went out.

*He came in minutes later with a package.*

“Thanks” Elvis stood up and grabbed his car keys.
“Can we talk about the food now?” Pat asked.
“No and don’t touch it” Elvis said sternly when he saw his hands moving closer to the pack.

Getting the address where he saw to meet the client was difficult. After much stress, he located the coffee shop.
He went directly to the third booth where he was told the client would be waiting for me.
“Here’s your package ma’am” he said sat in the booth opposite the woman waiting.
She took off her glasses.
Elvis opened his mouth to talk but nothing came out.

A Night with Mr Arrogant (episode 29)


Episode 29

He raised his brows at me with a frown, then I realized my mistake.

“Jackson ! I mean, Jackson” I said.

“Good” he said and step out. “let’s go”

We head downstairs. Just when I’m about to serve the pancakes, Bright walks in.

He smiles when he sees me and whistles, accessing my nightie.

“Forget about breakfast, Sweetheart, you look yummy!!” Bright said and lick his lips.

Jackson turns his head to my direction, his gaze harden when he sees my nightie.

My nightie is a short, red, see through, tight gown.
It barely covers my butts, but I’m wearing a small, red tight underneath.
With the two of them looking at me, I become aware of how inappropriate my nightie actually is.

Jackson stands up and smack Bright on his head.

“Ouch! What was that for?” Bright cries dramatically and rubs his head.

Bright is so childish sometimes, I couldn’t help the giggle that escape my mouth.

Jackson flash me a harsh glare and I shut my mouth instantly.

“Go and change, Mirabel!” He commands.

Well, you don’t have to tell me twice. I quickly run upstairs to change.

Jackson wait until I'm out of sight, then he turned to James and glare at him. He sit back in his chair and put his arms across his chest.

“Bright, can you stop flirting with Mirabel?”

Bright who sat on the chair next to Jackson smirk.
“And why should I?” He replied looking at Jackson expectantly, like he is waiting for him to say something he wants to hear..

Jackson knows Bright can see through him, he isn’t his best friend for nothing.
Infact, they're no longer friends, they are brothers.
So he knows what Jackson is thinking even without saying, but that bastard wants him to say it.

Jackson look at him with narrowed eyes.

“You want me to say it, right?” Jackson asked.

“Bingo, Jackson Mark is the winner!” He exclaims with a smug Expression.
I clear my throat, and swallow nervously.

“I.. I.. I think…” Jackson pause and look at him. Bright raises his eyebrows urging him to continue. “I think I’m in love with her”

My Strict Housemaid (episode 9)


Episode 9

The living room was spotless, you would never know a dinner party was hosted there yesterday.
He entered the kitchen and poured himself a cup of milk.

“Morning Sir, after drinking the milk, go wait in the dining room. Food is almost ready” Lucy said with her back to him.
“Who says I was going to wait for breakfast?” Elvis snapped at her.
“It’s your choice, it only leaves more food for me to eat.” She replied.
He grudgingly went to the dining room and waited. Had it been he wasn’t hungry, he would have walked out on her.
She dropped a plate of scrambled eggs and a glass of orange juice. “Eat up fast”
“You got my message from your mother?” She asked.
He chose to ignore her and focused on eating.
“Good, if you try sending me out again, it would be the media this time. Like I said I want to work for my money and your mother is paying a lot” he said.
He finished the food and gobbled down the juice. “Goodbye, I’m off”.

“Hey hey, wait!” she shouted at him.
He stopped and turned around “yeah?”
See those bags, she pointed towards three trash bags, he hadn’t notice at the kitchen entrance.
“Yeah?”
“Take them out!” she commanded.
“Sorry?” he managed to utter out after seconds of silence.
“Yeah, you heard me. You invited the guests, I cleaned your house, you should take the trash out”
He eyed her acidly and continued his journey to the front door.
“If you take a foot out of that door, I’m calling the media. I heard they’re pretty interested in you.”she threatened.
He turned around and opened his mouth to talk.
“Shhhh… don’t talk. Anything you say can be use against you by me” she said sternly.
He swallowed back his words and looked at her, debating.
He went towards the trash bags and picked them up. It’s better to be safe than sorry.
“Don’t worry Sir, I’m only training you on housekeeping in case I leave”.
He scoffed in response and slammed the front door.
He dropped the trash bags in the trash cans and entered his car.

A Night with Mr Arrogant (episode 28)


Episode 28

“I.. I.. you were having a nightmare. I’m sorry” I said.
I stand up to leave, but he quickly pull me back.

He rest his head on my chest, my face warm up, because his head is resting on my breast.
But I quickly shake that thought from my head.

“Please stay with me. I need you” he said in a broken voice.
He sounds so vulnerable. His whole body is shaking as if he just saw the most scariest thing ever.

“Don’t go please. Stay by my side tonight?” He plead.

” Ok”

” You’ll sleep on this bed, by my side?”

“Yes, I will” I said.

I feel him smile.
I can’t just leave him alone, I think whatever he saw in that nightmare is what happened to him.
Maybe this has something to do with his cold nature.
I must find out what it is…..
_________________________________

I woke up badly wanting to use the bathroom. I tried getting up, but I felt something pulling me back.
I looked down and saw his arm wrapped around my waist, his head still laying on my chest. I look around and noticed I’m still in his room.

I must have fallen asleep last night and forgot to go back to my room.
I look at the small alarm clock on the nightstand next to Jackson's bed, it’s 4:49am.

Shoot! My eyes grows wide. I’m so gonna get fired, why did I oversleep?.
I gently removed Jackson's arm and rush downstairs, towards the kitchen. I forget about using the bathroom.
What can I cook to meet up the time?
After much thought, I decided to make buttermilk pancakes.

When I’m done, I set it on the table and head upstairs to wake Jackson up.
I knock on the door and wait for him to answer. After some minutes, he opens his door, he’s already taken his bath, but not yet dressed for work.
He’s just wearing a white T-shirt and his sweatpants..

“Breakfast is ready, sir”

He raised his brows at me with a frown, then I realized my mistake.

“Jackson ! I mean, Jackson” I said.

“Good” he said and step out. “let’s go”..

My Strict Housemaid (episode 8)


Episode 8

Lucy was getting bored of the party and her gaze stray to where Donald is standing, she noticed he’s bored too but the man with him is clearly having fun. As a CEO, he should sleep early and lay an example to his employees.
Lucy picked a glass cup and a spoon. She hit the spoon on the glass till there was a perfect silence. “Thanks for coming to the dinner night everyone. The night has come to an end. Kindly go home and sleep, cheers” she said to them. Soon they began leaving in twos and threes.
She walked over to where Donald was standing, looking at her in shock “Go to bed too”.

“Hey, I’m Pat, his best friend and personal assistant. I’ve heard so much about you” the man beside him gushed.
“Hey Pat, go to bed too”
She saw the last guests off then locked the door.
The house was a mess but it’s nothing she couldn’t handle after a good night rest.
She walked to her room very tired. She had barely hit her head in the pillow when she closed my eyes to sleep.

Now I’m convinced that girl was sent by my mother, she isn’t a maid as she claims to me, Elvis said angrily.
Pat went home late last night so he wouldn’t get scolded by his wife.
Elvis phone rang, he looked at the caller’s ID and hit ignore. Seconds later, a message came in.
I love you too baby, you have no idea what your words mean to me. You should have told me instead of Lucy. love mum.
He hit the reply button furiously; Okay ma’am, I don’t know what you must have heard from your Ally. Just know it’s quite the opposite. I don’t love you and never will. It would be better if you tell her to leave my bloody house, he replied and dressed up for the day’s work in anger.

Elvis stomach rumbled in anger as he remembered last night. He had wanted to serve himself food when Lucy came over and said the food is solely for guests and since he's not one, he have no right to eat it. He had no choice than to leave quietly in order not to cause a scene.
