My employer's wife

Chapter One

We continued staring at each other for like twenty minutes or so. The Man was smiling at me like he had finally won a lottery but the woman who I figured to be his wife was angrily looking at me with disgust as though I'm the last person she'd ever want to meet.
This is my fifth interview since I lost my job at charles international hospital and probably there will be more to count if I don't get this job.
My name is Lizzie but I loved to be called lizz, I was working at charles international hospital until a rumour which is true evolved about my sexuality. Since the hospital manager is homophobic like other people, I was fired immediately and was replaced by another ladt the next morning, I have applied for work in so many other hospitals several times but no response back. Now I'm trying out to become a nanny but no family is willing to risk their child for me
You might be wondering why, well it's simply because I'm a Gay.
As much as Homosexual relationship is already made legally, some people are still treating us like we were spit out by devil himself.
"Um....can we talk for a minute" the young lady said gesturing to her husband
"Yeah, Give us a minute" he said before following his wife out the door
Being the Snoopy type, don't blame me I followed them Immediately they left, I went closer to the door to hear what they want to say.
"For Christ sake she's a lesbian" she said raising her voice a little bit
"Yeah I heard, what's wrong with that" the man ask
"And u want her to take care of our girls"
"Yes, she's good and experienced nurse"
"Really, because she said she'd had four interview and was not accepted because she's not good enough"
"No, she wasn't accepted because she's gay and you know what maybe she was meant to work for us" The Man said almost making his angry wife to loose the little patient she has
"Oh my God!, you have gone crazy, what the fuck is wrong with you"
"Alright let's give her a chance, if two or three months you still doesn't want her then she goes"
"Huh?"
"Yeah, I think it's fair for everyone"
"God, I can't believe I'm accepting this. Fine!, if that's what you want but know that if anything happen before that two month is totally your fault
"Alright love" he said
I rushed back knowing that they are through with their conversation while rejoicing within me. The man walked in smiling at me.
"The job is all yours" he said revealing his white teeth.
"Really oh my!, thank you so much sir" I said enthusiastically like I didn't know
"Yeah but the deal is to stay for two months and know if you will continue, I vouched for you so I hope you so don't disappoint me" he said
"Never, you can count on me sir and I'm definitely not gonna disapoint sir"
"You can start this weekend if that is alright with you"
"Yeah totally, I wouldn't mind if it's tommorow, I really appreciate it sir"

"Don't call me sir, I feel old when you do that, call me Gerald"
"Okay sir... Gerald"
So....um we shall see you then"
Yeah, I will take my leave then"I said picking my documents and my phone
"Yeah, have a nice day" he said
"You too sir" I said

It's been three days since my last interview and I couldn't wait to leave this house. Since I broke up with my so call girlfriend I have been waiting for the day I will leave this house. It has so many wonderful memories but the one bad memory of it makes me want to kill myself literally
I have packed my stuffs waiting For the cab to pull over. I haven't meet the kids but I know that they are two, two girls. One is six and the other is three. The husband travels alot and the wife who I recall her name Lisa wouldn't be able to take care of the kids, the house and her work alone.
The cab pulled out and I got in. It took me to my new place of work. After I paid him off, I walked up to the porch carrying my bags which is totally not heavy for a person who is moving out to a new place. I rang the doorbell three times before it was opened by the woman. She doesn't seem happy to see me but only pretended for the little faces that's staring at me
"Momma who's she?" The oldest girl said
They didn't tell me she's the oldest but I figured looking at her height and maturity
"Well Olivia meet your new nanny, Miss Lizz and Miss Lizz meet my two girls Olivia my oldest and Sonia my youngest"
"Hi, it's nice to finally meet you" I said stooping to their height
"Me too, how do you do" Olivia ask
"I'm very fine and how are you"
"I'm good" she said smiling
"You wanna come inside? Olivia asked
"Yeah, I do"...
I guess the girl has more manners than her mom who seems to be having a conflict in her mind
"Thank you very much" I said entering the
The youngest took my hand and was smiling up at me" would you mind to meet my Barbie house"?
"Yeah !, I wouldn't mind at all I said looking at her mom
"Olivia, take your sister upstairs, Miss Lizz would like to rest and pack her stuff" she said
"I would love to help you, mom says am a good helper" Olivia said once again looking so adorable
"Really, Maybe next time....ok?" I ask
Alright, come on Sonia let's let miss Lizz rest. They both rushed upstairs giggling so loud
I didn't say you girls should run, she yelled over to the kids who are already gone
They are lovely, I said smiling at her
Come on, I will show you to ur room dismissing me like I wasn't there
What was I expecting, a warm welcome party, funny I said sarcastically in my mind
