Crystal
Throughout the whole journey I sat quietly, did not make one sound, I just stared at my window watching the world go by. The driver Mr Ricci made glances at me by looking at the rear window to make sure that I am ok, but I’m not I am so angry and emotional due this day’s events, I made sure that my locket is hidden as I probably know that where I am going the people will want it, just like Maria tried to take it from me. It must be identification or something to me as I know it had my full name on it, since dad died, she took away my identity even my surname, I was just Crystal the maid nothing else, she took all the pictures down and placed them somewhere that I cant find. Maria was one horrible lady that turned me from a bright bubbly girl to a shy and boring person, she took all my memories away from childhood by slapping me if I done something wrong, she mostly used the whip on my back and legs for amusement. What is this lady’s problem anyway? I am still scarred by what she did to me, now I am going to a much worse place and you don’t want to mess with mafia of what Maria told me that torture a lot harder then what she did. Taken away from my thoughts I hear Mr Ricci say, “Miss we have arrived”, I turned my head to the front and saw a huge mansion with the most beautiful scenery. We got parked up and Mr Ricci got me out the car and walked to the main entrance. The doors opened and I was so shocked on the interior, you can tell these guys are billionaires.
Mr Ricci lead me to one of the rooms which was lounge area that had the most stunning art, mostly paintings and white furnishings and fluffy red rug on the floor. “wait here” said Mr Ricci then he left, I did not move one inch as I did not want to break anything, I looked at the clock and it was 10:30pm. I felt so tired from crying and of course a hectic evening. I heard door open and there stood two men that looked absolutely handsome both had dark brown quiff hair and wore suits, one wearing a dark blue and the other wearing black I can tell they are identical twins as their facial features and body are the same. Nice broad shoulders would love to get my hands around those muscles I thought to myself. “Miss Crystal I am Elijah and this is my twin Victor, I hope you had comfortable journey?” “yes I did thank you sir” I said nervously, “ good this will be your home now and there are few rules that you must obey and if you don’t obey these rules there will be serious consequences”.
Rule 1: speak when your spoken to
Rule 2: you shall not back chat us or any other guest that are visiting our home
Rule 3: all servants will be in bed by 11pm unless stated by either me or my twin
Rule 4: do not wonder off to any parts of the mansion, unless you have been told to go there
Rule 5: must be awake at 6am and breakfast half 7am for you, if you miss your breakfast you will not get any until lunch
Rule 6: if you break anything you will get punished and pay for it
“Do I make myself clear?” Elijah said in a harsh tone. “Yes sir” “follow us and we shall show you where you will be staying” said Victor, he seemed very shy and I bet that Elijah wears the pants in the businesses I thought to myself. I did of what I was told and followed them and observed the mansion while walking, we finally got to the 3rd floor and I knew that I will be sleeping on this floor, we stood at one of the doors and Elijah knocked and waited “come in” said a soft voice, and we all walked in and there stood a young girl but must be in her early 20s standing near a bed. “Eliza, this is Miss Crystal she will be living her from now on and be sharing this room with you, get her some food there must be some bits in the fridge and tomorrow your job for the day is to show her around the mansion and the gardens is that clear?” Said Elijah “yes sir understood” “good there will be clothes in that wardrobe there get freshened up and Eliza is getting a meal for you as clearly Mrs Saunders doesn’t feed her staff” said Victor then both left and so did Eliza.
I looked at the room and it was big considering it was servants room, there was 2 beds and 1 lamp table at each end, then on the other side there was 2 wardrobes I guess the one closest was mine and then there was a door that must link to the bath room, I went to the wardrobe and was shocked that all these clothes were brand new and still had tags on and the underwear too, I checked the label Victoria Secret, they must treat their staff nicely here, I didn’t get f**k all, I took matching pair of dark lace panties and bra and some pjs and headed the bathroom, it was absolute incredible and posh nice I put the clothes onto the side, undressed and went into the shower and finally relaxed, after I got out of the shower and got dressed I went to the bedroom and saw Eliza sitting on my bed with a tray of food, short size women 5ft 5 with short blonde hair and slim body I walked around and sat on the bed with her, on the tray there was Shepard’s pie and for dessert was strawberry jelly, hot drink was hot chocolate with cream, I scoffed down my hot meal and I glanced at Eliza staring at me, I didn’t care as I was very hungry, “you must be very hungry Crystal, did your last employer didn’t feed you a lot?” I hesitated to answer that question and dug into the jelly. “I am still employed by her well not really employed but she is my step mother, not many people know this but in her eyes she saw me as a servant, and I would have 1 sandwich with glass of water at lunch and then a medium hot meal at dinner so could say that I am underweight a bit”. I said quickly, once I finished with dessert, I sipped my hot chocolate I have not had one in years. “omg really? does your parents know your here? And the food you get here you will gain your weight back in couple of weeks” “my mum died not long after giving birth to me and my father died when I was 13 he remarried when I was 12 and that’s good then” I replied back finished rest of my drink and put it on the tray, Eliza took the tray and placed it on the floor near the door “ I know that we will be great friends Crystal I am not a mean person everyone wants to have a friend, do you see your friends from school?” she questioned “I did when I was at school but my step mother Maria forced me to stop going and since then she didn’t let me go out to see anybody, I only went out once a month to get clothes with some money but that was about it”. Eliza sat there shocked in silent then she gave me the biggest hug ever and soothed me “don’t worry Crystal everything will be ok from now on, all you have to do is follow the rules and you shall be fine” she said to me quietly she kissed my forehead and laid my body down and put the covers over me, I watched her as she got into bed and the said good night and turned the lamp off then I fell into a deep sleep.
