He assisted me to get on my own feet and my cheeks flushed.
"Are you okay, Miss?" He asked again, trying to catch my eyes.
I was so shy and lowered my head, nodding my head repeatedly.
"Sí, grazie." I said my thanks, lowering my head.
"M-Mi scusi." Stuttering, I excused myself and immediately moved away from him.
I felt his gaze following me but immediately, I walked away because I got no choice.
I was scared he might find out I am not really his guest! Well, maybe he knows anyone who'd come here?
Sulking, I went to the bathroom and changed my clothes. Wearing the maid's uniform back again, I found my way back to the storage area.
"I want sweets!" I gasped, touching my tummy.
I was full, alright, but sweets...I want sweets!
I hid myself where I was resting earlier, a bit scared about the next days I'll be staying here.
What will I eat? What if I got caught here? What if I die? What if they killed me?
They're good, I guess, but still, I don't know what my fate would be if they found out I am a stranger and shouldn't be here boarding in this ship.
Scared of feeling alone, I lowered my head, muttered a soft prayer for my safety.
I hope...I hope somehow, I wish, I will find my way home.
Not back in Italy, but somewhere far with the people who would genuinely care for me.
Nervous and scared what tomorrow would bring, I hoped for the best.
Like the sea where this ship is sailing, like the waves crashing, I should go with the flow. Hoping the sea would bring me to the right path.
I slept, tired and woke up the next day, confused at first where I am but realized what really happened a moment later.
I sighed, niyakap ko ang bag ko at tumitig sa maliit na window sa tabi ko.
I kinda missed the comfort I had in my place back then but I would never go back there again if it would only mean I'll be back and they would cage me inside like a prisoner, tell me what to do...I am not a puppet, I refuse to become one. Never again.
Akala ko I'll be full after the food fiesta last night but I was wrong because early in the morning and my stomach is growling like a monster!
Annoyed, tumayo ako. I pointed my stomach and gasped.
"Hey, tummy! Hindi ka dapat hungry, makisama ka naman!" I pointed my stomach, hoping it would stop but the growling continued.
"Argh!" I gasped. "Monster ka ba?"
So...what would be my disguise today?
I went out, secretly, luckily I found chambermaids and while pretending to be one, following them, I found an amazing disguise where I could get a chance to enjoy myself!
A chef! Yes! I will be a chef today!
Nakisabay ako sa lakad ng mga iilang staff, I tried to blend in, nervous but this is for my stomach and my health.
Kapag dumaong itong ship, I would walked out of here! I will find a new place to live!
"Oh, a new chef?" The lady in a blonde hair pointed me and I smiled, nodding.
