ANTHONY'S POV:
I slept all through the day untill towards midnight before I woke up but the good thing is that, the headache is gone.
The only problem right now is that I am very very hungry and enduring it untill daybreak is not gonna work.
I totally forgot to order for food like how I've planned it. Jessica spoilt my mood.
I decide to go into the kitchen to look for something to eat. May be fruit or something..
opening the fridge, I am faced with the spaghetti Miss Natasha cooked and as well as offered me earlier but I vehemently rejected it.
She packed it in a disposable container.
Without thinking twice, I Immediately brought out the food to microwave it.
After getting hot the way I want it, I removed it and began munching on it.
God!,.. This lady can cook, it absolutely taste like heaven.
I was almost finished when someone walked in and switched on the light.
and that someone is no one else but Miss Natasha.....
I think for the first time in my life, I felt shy, stupid and embarrassed.
I rejected her offer earlier and here am I, lavishing the food in secret like a thief.
I wonder what she is gonna think of me with all the happenings between yesterday and today...
"Uhmmm, hi"...I said awkwardly.
I've lost my strong demeanor at this point already. someone should knock me out already.
"I felt very hungry when I woke up. So I decided to come look for food when I found some of this in the refrigerator "... I unnecessarily explained this shameful situation that I am in right now.
She stood there just looking with a blank expression.
I am good at understanding people's thought by looking at their face but this time, I can't even read anything and it disturbs me a little bit.
"No problem Mr Anthony, I actually packaged the rest for you."...she answered as she fetched water and is making her way out of the kitchen.
"Why?"...I enquired.
"Sir?"....she asked again looking very lost.
Clearly, it indicates that her attention is not here with me.
"I mean the food. why did you still kept some for me even after telling you that I wasn't eating?" I asked again.
"Because you have been sleeping all day and nobody came to deliver food for you" she replied holding the cup of water.
She never stops to amaze me. she doesn't learn from her mistakes and she is readily available to help.
"Thank you Miss Natasha" I said.
She looked at me briefly, then make her way out of the kitchen.
Though we don't talk much and I can't really differentiate her normal body language from the abnormal one but there is this unusual stillness about her that makes me feel she might still be mad at me.
It's as if she has made up her mind to maintain a distance from me and I definitely know why.....
I washed-off my plate after emptying everything and head back to my room thereafter.
Miss Natasha is gradually becoming my favourite cook and I can't wait to eat some of it tomorrow, again.
The food she prepares is usual but the taste is very unusual and I like it.
I love trying new news.
I pulled the duvet over me as I try to go back to sleep but I then felt a hand on my crotch sliding almost towards my d**k.
It instantly propelled me to jump off the bed and immediately switched on the light.
There on the bed is Jessica, lying on my bed almost naked doing her seductive slow movements.
I've totally forgotten that she is here. she got to use the opportunity to get in when I left for the kitchen.
"please, go to your room. I want to sleep" I dismissed her.
"Ant, I want you to f**k me hard. Please I need you now and I so missed you. I know you missed me too. Do not lie to me" she said almost begging.
"You must be delusional and sick in the head" I told her.
"Nothing will ever happen between the both of us again. Not now and not ever" I point between us.
"Are you sure?" she stood up from the bed and sexually walked up to me.
"I know you still want me, still want to nibble my ni**le, lick me clean like you always do, and believe me baby, I am wet already. You wanna check?" she seductively said.
She knows that she can turn me on with those dirty words but doesn't know that I've drank a full tank of immunity against her advances.
I am not going to let her fool me to fulfill her mission,.....
I'm trying to be nice and don't want to wake the rest of the people up.
" I agree that I am a fool to give you a chance to come see our daughter. I never knew that I'm doing harm than good. No reconcilation can occur through this Jessica. Okay?" I said truthfully and in a very calm tone to make my words sink through into her cheating brain.
I walk gently up to her causing her to smile. I believe she already thinks that she has broken through my walls.
Instead, I smirked.
In a flash, I picked her up on my shoulders as I open the door and dropped her outside my room, at the passage....
I shut the door immediately and went back to bed.
She never saw that coming. The shock on her face says it all.
She bang angrily at my door...
she must be stupid to think that I will open that door.
The message must have passed through her head by now because she has stopped knocking.
NATASHA'S POV:
I heard a knock at my door.
Immediately, I stood up and rushed to the door.
"Hello Ma'am, good morning" I greeted Beverly's mum.
"Are you not suppose to wake up and clean the house?" she shouted.
"Her duty is not to clean the house but to look after Beverly" Mr Anthony interjects from no where as he came out dressed up already for work.
"Is that how you are being soft with your maid?" she turned to look at him.
" First, She is not a maid but my worker....
Secondly, how I treat my workers shouldn't be any of your concern" Mr Anthony sternly replied.
Should I be happy that he is defending me?....
The clear truth is that he actually acts nasty and mean like her sometimes. Take for an example, yesterday...
They are all birds of the same feathers and I do not expect the two not to flock together, I thought to myself.
"and what is the damn difference between a maid and a nanny?" she wrapped her arms against her chest, looking over at Mr Anthony.
"I don't want to have this conversation with you this morning. I am going to work and make sure I don't see you when I return back later, Jessica" Mr Anthony instructed as he walk pass us.
I wanted to return back to my room when she violently pulled me back..
"Where the hell do you think you are going to.huhh?" she savagely asked.
"It's as if you don't know who I am?,,,,
I am Anthony's wife and you shall treat me with respect. if you don't, I promise to make you disappear from this house" she said proudly.
At this point, I think I am terrified by her actions. She is violent.
"Now, go to the kitchen and make pancakes for breakfast" she ordered.
I wanted to do as she says so peace can reign but then I heard Beverly shouting my name from her room.
She must have heard the commotion happening right now.
I began running to her room when Mrs Jessica pulled me back and in the process crashing me to the wall.
"And where do you think you are going to?" she glared at me.
"Ma'am, my obligation is only to Beverly and Beverly alone. I will go downstairs and cook but after checking up on Beverly" I boldly said.
Before I knew what is happening, she slapped me hard on the face.
I covered the area with my palm, it stings.
"Next time you talk back at me in such unruly manner, I will make sure to sent you packing even before Anthony comes back home and believe me, I am so capable" she threatened.
I don't know, but something about the way she said it makes me feel scared. As if she could actually do it.
I walked downstairs, angry and hurt with a blurry vision.
I made the pancakes for her and dished it out on the dinning table.
As I wanted to walk back up to attend to Beverly, I met her trying to climb down the stairs. Holding tight to her teddy bear.
"baby, are you awake already?" I asked playfully even when I am extremely sad.
"yesh" she answered.
"I am hungwry" she pouts.
"Okay. Wait there, I am coming to pick you up" I walked up to her and carried her to the kitchen. I don't want her walking the stairs alone, it's too dangerous.
"Miss Natasha, I saw mummy shlapp you. sowie" She said looking at me with tears in her eyes.
"Come on baby, see I am fine, ok?" I said as I did a quick dance so I could deviate her attention...
She shouldn't have seen that at all.
As Beverly was still eating, Miss Jessica walks into the kitchen and stop by the door, looking at us like a predator.
"Good morning Mummy" Beverly greeted.
"Morning my Jellyfish" she answered back as she walked up to us.
Little Beverly continued eating and refused giving attention to her mum even when she is standing right in front of her.
I quietly observe the two. Their relationship is kind of odd or is it just all in my head?...
"Do you want mummy to feed you?" she asked Beverly in a petting manner.
"No, Miss Natasha said I'm a big girl now and should learn how to eat by myself" she rejected her offer.
I think that answer didn't go down well with Ma'am Jessica. She gave me a stern look before storming out of the kitchen.
Through out the day, I and Beverly stayed in my room. The only time we came out was when I prepared launch. I am trying my possible best to avoid Ma'am Jessica. I think it will do me some good.
