HIS MAID TO HIS WIFE

Chapter:8

(Zarin's POV)

I don't think I was breathing. My hands started sweating. He was so damn close to me. It was as if his six-pack was about to touch my body at any moment. However, he actually touched my hair. Not only he touched he held it and the next thing I felt was the cold brush of air on my shoulder. What was he trying to do? It was wrong what he was doing, right? I looked in order to turn around and make him realize who he was with and what he was doing. I stared right into his with all anger and courage gathered up to slap the life out of his body but before I could do that he took the hoodie from nowhere and backed out. What nonsense was this I thought? He turned around and started putting his black hoodie on.

"Excuse me." I voiced out with all my courage. This was not the time to stay shut.

"Get the leather jacket its right behind your back." I turned back to actually find a black leather jacket there.

The door suddenly opened and a guy of his age entered.

"Hey, man are you going to take an eternity. Oooh, wait who is she?" He stopped figuring me in the room. I looked at the master, he looked at me and then at his friend.

"Maid" He uttered one word and it was enough for all my reputation and education to dissolve into the soil. For this day I studied so hard all my life. Maid.

"Maid? Sorry did I hear that correctly?" The fellow said.

"Jacket." I looked at him and quickly got the jacket out. I thought I should finish my job and get out of this embarrassing situation fast.

I handed him the jacket. I didn't help him to wear it and he didn't seem to expect it too.

"Quite a beautiful maid you got yourself, buddy."

"Let's go," The master said and left. The guy followed him too giving me a few turnovers.

I really didn't know what to think of them. They were rich people, women most probably meant nothing but a toy for them. It's better to stay away from there reach. It was just a matter of a few days for me to work here. As soon as mother comes back from the village, my misery will end. I will live a life full of respect.

I collected the clothes he wore and got out of the room. Never in my life, I imagined that I have to see a day like this. I really felt so helpless. However, this helplessness was for a good purpose. It will eventually give me the life I have always desired, full of respect and independence.

In the laundry room, Rewanan was busy getting the cleaned clothes out of the washing machine. She immediately noticed my weird face and twitched her eyebrows questioning what happened.

"I need to put these clothes into the washing machine. Are you done?" I said to avoid discussing the embarrassing situation and go through it all over again.

"You look so red. What happened got sick or what?" I wasn't expecting her to say something like that at all. The embarrassment I thought or was it due to anger. I was feeling such a mix of emotions. My stomach felt weird as if I was anxious. The way you would feel just before the teacher would hand you over the exam paper.

"What lady which world did you get lost in?" Rezwana asked again.

I looked at her and with the amount of confidence of knowing her for these few days, I decided to ask her the question that was buzzing loud in the back of my mind.

"How do you think the little master is? Like characterwise?" As soon as I asked her eyes immediately narrowed and her face became like a detective in the movies.

"Did he do something wrong with you?" She asked her expression holding the same expression. I exhaled to relax a bit.

"No, I don't know," I mumbled whatever seemed relevant. I myself was so perplexed about the whole situation. What further could I have answered her?
