1016 Words
My mouth went gape as I stare the simplest house in front of me. It's a simple house that is surrounded with flowers and green grass.
I faced the man besides me. I'm wondering if have we ever met? He really look familiar for me. I just can't remember if where or when did I met him.
"You own this house?" I politely asked him.
"Would I bring you here if this is not mine?" He asked me back.
Yea, right. Stupid, Mecca.
"I bought you here so that we can talk about my terms and policy in this house. Since you are working for me, you have to follow me." She said, I nodded. "Another thing is, please don't think that I might do something to you, you're too ugly and you're not my type."
Wow? Just wow? He have the nerves to say me that, huh? I know she's handsome but hell, I won't ever like him. Stupid him.
"Follow me inside." She commanded as she walk towards the door of the small house. I followed him.
He sat on the couch and she gesture me to sit so again, I followed him. He's my boss so what ever he said, I'll follow it.
"Introduce yourself." She said.
"Is this a first day of class?" I said sarcastically.
He raised his one browse, " that's too long name, what's your nickname?" He sarcastically asked back.
Fine, bwesit na lalaki!
I rolled my eyes before answering him.
"My name is Mella Catena Alfonso, 20 years old, a second year psychology student. Im—"
"That's enough. I'm only asking your name, you're saying too much."
Tsk, f**k you.
"I have nothing to tell—"
"Why don't you introduce yourself to me first, huh? I introduced myself to you so you should do the same." I cut him off.
Stop being unfair here. I don't wanna work without knowing my boss's name. That would be awkward.
"Just call me Boss when we are together, nothing else." He said. "Let's proceed to my terms and policy. First, you have to follow me. I'm your boss so yeah, you really have to follow your boss. Second, since your still studying you will be working for me after your class, I don't want to be an hindrance for you studies. Third, you must be staying here with me—"
"Wait," i cut him off. "Whuatt!? I will be staying here WITH YOU? Are you freakin' serious!?" I shouted in horror.
The hell, no!
I know he's handsome but hell, I don't trust him!
"Yea, what's wrong with that?" He asked. "Besides I'm going to pay you 15 thousands every month. I think it's not bad, right?"
What the—is he really serious?
"C'mon, don't you ever think that I'll r**e you." He said while smirking. " I won't r**e you because I'll make sure you will volunteer to play with me in bed."
My eyes widen because of what he just said.
"Pervert!" I shouted but he just burst out laughing. "Stop laughing, you pervert!"
"Forgot what I've said." He said. "Just sign this contract. Don't bothered to read, just sign it." She commanded me as she lend me the paper.
I didn't listen to him instead I read the contract. It said there that I'm just going to work for him for just five months.
The contract was too long to read and to be honest, I don't like reading. So instead of reading the whole contract, I just signed it.
Limang buwan lang naman.
"I want you to stay here starting tomorrow. Note that I want you here at exactly 6:00 am in the morning or else your fired."
I hate him. I don't like him to be my boss but I know I can't find a job with 15 thousands pesos salary every month. It's a big help for me ang for my mother.

"What kind of work did you found, Mecca? Do you really need to move out?" Mama sounds so worried.
I look at her and I smiled.
"Ma, he's so kind..." No, he's not. "He's old man, mama but she don't have family." I lied to my mother.
"Are you sure that staying with him is safe?"
I nodded, "yes, ma. Besides, he's so old he can't hurt me." I added while laughing.
I kiss my mom's cheeks and look at Chantal.
"Don't be stubborn here, Chan. Take care mama, okey?" I told her.
"Noted, ate. Take care there also." She hugged me and I hugged her back.

It's 5 am in the morning but I'm already riding a taxi. I'm already on my way to my Boss's house. I bring a small valise with me and my backpack.
Her house is too far that I almost took half and hour before I could finally reached his house.
"Thank you, manong." I thank the driver as I pay him 100 pesos.
Bumaba ako taxi na sinasakyan ko. I let out a deep sigh before I opened the gate of my boss's house.
When I enter the gate, I heard loud music inside. It's like there is a party?
I continue walking but when I entered the house there I realized that the loud music is not from here but the yard of this house.
"What too you so long? C'mon, let's go outside."
I was shocked when I heard my boss voice from my back.
I face him. "What for?"
"Today is the start of your job, Ms. Alfonso." He said while smirking. "Oopss, I mean Mrs. Montero."
My eyes widened because of what he said. What the f**k does it mean!?
"When we're together, you call me 'boss' but when we're in front of my family and friends— you call me 'babe'."
What the f**k!? What f*****g job did I just apply!? Is this— f**k, no! It can't be!
"You did just apply as my contract wife, Ms. Alfonso. I'm sorry but you can't escape it now, you already signed the contract."
WHAT THE FUCKKKKK!!!!
