Chapter 1 One
Zaneska voice echoed throughout the mansion. Because she saw the look of her expensive large jars on display in her living room that were broken. It was as if she was in a trance when she entered her house with the three jars she had scattered on the floor broken.
"All of you come here to the living room!" I shouted at them all. My ten assistants stood in front of me with their heads bowed. And others are still trembling with fear. Because now they see me very angry.
"Who did that? You know how much that is? It's more expensive than your life! " I shouted.
"If none of you will admit it, it's better to pack your things and leave my house! " I shouted, in a loud voice.
Later on, one of my assistants approached me with a bow.
"I'm sorry, ma'am, my son came here earlier. And he was playing in the living room, so his hand just hit the jars," she says.
Suddenly, my hair stood on end.
"My house is not a playground, Luciana. Just before you entered here as my staff, I told you that both of you should take care of the things here inside the house. " I said while holding my forehead in my hand while my other hand was on my hips.
I noticed that it was trembling with fear at what I would do to him. All right, please put away that glass and throw it in the trash.
"So the next time something breaks or breaks things in this house, I won't forgive you. " I told them one by one.
They nodded and left in front of me. while Luciana was left shedding glass. After that, I went to my room and sat on my bed. After a while, my phone rang. I answered since it was my secretary, Randolf, calling me.
"What is it?" I asked him.
"Miss Zaneska, all of our investors have pulled out their investments in us." He said, trembling on the other line.
My forehead furrowed at what I heard.
"For what reason, Randolf? "I asked him.
"I don't know, Miss," he says.
"Fix it right away," I said. "I tried to fix it, but they want to talk to you," he says on the other line.
"And why? My answer.
"You're a secretary, so you also have the right to fix the problem."
"I've done everything I can, but they still don't want to.
"Mr. Chin is even worse. "he says.
Mr. Chin is a Chinese investor from China. We have fixed the investment, but why was it pulled out? Is he just kidding me? I laid down on the bed while my phone was still in my ear.
"Take a deep breath, Randolf. I've heard your nervousness up to here." I said.
"I was suddenly afraid that you might scold me for doing the pull-out of their investments," he says.
I rolled my eyes because of what he said.
"Aren't you used to my habit? "The length of time you've been working with me," I said.
I heard it breathing on the other line.
"All right, call them and set up a meeting." I said.
"All right, Miss," he said, lowering his phone at once.
I put the phone on the table, took off my clothes, and went into the bathroom to take a shower. I'm planning to go out right now. I think it's seven o'clock in the evening.
I suddenly thought of Mitch. It didn't even call to say hello to me. Their house is in the province, and sometimes I have never been to them. I am too busy with life. So I neglect myself sometimes.
So I decided to get out and go to the city to unwind. Even giving free time to my housemates, I could no longer do it. I know they also need a break because they do a lot here in the mansion. And I also gave them good benefits and wages.
I have no problem with them because they are both kind and reliable at work. They are both single. Luciana is the only one with a child but no husband.
I came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped all over my body.
I looked for clothes that could be worn later in the city.
I took off my binge-colored crop top and ripped jeans. I wore it while putting on light make-up. I went down the stairs before I was satisfied with how I looked. I went first to the kitchen to take a look. And I saw some foods that were prepared on the table. I took a slice of cake and ate it.
I was drinking water when Luciana entered the kitchen.
"Please call them all, Luciana. Let's eat together. " I said.
It stopped suddenly because of what I said. Maybe they were surprised because just now I said we would all share a meal. A minute later, they all entered the kitchen while I was already sitting in a chair.
"All of you sit down and eat." I command them. They sat down one by one and began to eat.
"Maybe you want to come with me to the city to unwind." I said.
Suddenly, they all looked at me.
"All right, Miss, we also want to experience going out at night," said Sanya.
I smiled.
"All right, get dressed and I'll wait for you all outside the house." I said.
I stood up and left them in the kitchen. I was out of the house and called Randolf. I called three times, but he did not answer. I was about to hang up my phone when he called me.
"Hello, Randolf, where are you?" I asked him.
"At home, Miss." was its answer, as if out of breath.
I thought. I suddenly blushed because I thought Randolf must have known why I was gasping. I immediately hung up the phone and pressed the off button. Shit! I was suddenly ashamed of what I had done. Why did I call him?
Randolf has a girlfriend, and they are living in the same house. As far as I know, their relationship has been going on for four years. It's a good thing I never heard that his girlfriend was jealous. Better in a relationship with mutual trust. I suddenly thought Why didn't I even have a relationship? Is there a problem with me? Am I ugly? Is there nothing special about me? But I did not feel insecure in other people's good relationships.
I have reached this age, but the man has not yet come for me. I've been waiting here outside for a long time, but the ten people with me in the house haven't come out yet. And I noticed they were pushing against the gate.
"Hurry up, it's too late at night." I told them.
So they walked closer to me. I brought a big car to fit us all. I could smell their perfumes. Why do they seem to bathe in all their perfume? I shook my head. They weren't too excited about coming out. Because I look at their faces, they all wear make-up. I turned the car on and drove away from home.
"You should all know how to drive because when it's like this, I'll have a hard time driving because you're all heavy." I joke with them.
They all laughed. We have reached the city. I stopped the car on the side of the plaza. We all went down. The cold of the night. My eyes wandered all over the place. There are still shops open, and there are couples sitting together in cement chairs holding hands. I raised an eyebrow. I was busy getting rich. I didn't know there was a place like this here in the city. There is a fountain in the middle of the plaza.
There were children running, and there were groups of girls and boys dancing. I look at my companions as they are already sitting in a shop selling stick-pierced foods. I saw the happiness in their faces. They are all nine, but I'll never forget their names. They gave my life a light. I was happy that there were some people who stayed with me. So it means I have a good attitude.
I was busy looking at them while someone was pulling my hand. I looked at it, and I saw that the girl was unkempt. Its two hands are outstretched to me.
"Can I have a money? I'm hungry." She said, simultaneously holding her stomach.
I grabbed the money pocket of my channel bag and handed it to her.
"The size of the money you gave," she said to me.
"How much is that?"
"It's a thousand, Ma'am," said the child to me.
I smiled at what she said. "How do you know?" I asked her.
"I'm just dirty, but I know how to count money," she replied.
"Why are you dirty?" It seems like I want to talk to this kid.
"Because I'm a street kid, I grew up on the street here. I'm wandering around asking people for money, "she answered me.
"Where are your parents?" I will ask.
"I don't know, because as far as I know, they've been dead for a long time. All right, ma'am, I'm leaving. Thank you for the money, " she said to me, at once leaving in front of me.
I was left standing. Luciana's voice was the one I heard calling to me.
"Ma'am, come here." I approached where they were.
And I noticed the food they ate. There was a hotdog stabbed with a stick, and then there was chicken dung, and then there was liver. I winced at what I saw. Can they still be eaten? The hotdog I was already eating. But I haven't tasted the chicken dung yet. I don't think it will enter my throat when I eat that.
"What did you eat? I guess I just saw that just right now. " I asked them.
"These are called street foods, Ma'am, but they're delicious." Hannah replied.
