Maid To Bea

The sudden storming in of a figure caused my whole figure jolting, gaze shifting to the doorway where a form came pushing in. Somewhat familiar, It didn't take long for me recognising him—the same boy from yesterday, advancing towards me, his eyes never for once evaded my profile.

His hair remained ruffled, jaw clutching tight, gaze held strongly on my form.

Anger sure filled his eyes. I noticed that so well.

"Where's the money?!" His voice travelled into my ears, tone loud.

"What money?" My own voice came out weak, low and barely audible even for my ears.

"Don't play games with me. I know you took the money." He said almost immediately.

"I don't know what you're talking about." I defended, trying to walk away, but his hold on my wrist pulled me back to the position I was.

My eyes shifted to the area of my skin which he had just touched, staring at it like something acidic had grazed there.

A brief silence filled the air, and just then, he began moving towards me, eyes matching mine.

"I don't know who let you in my room" He began, words pouring out one after the other, while he inched closer to my figure.

"but you and I know very well that you took that money."

At this point, I was already backing the wall, and had nowhere to go.

"You'll pay me my money. That's for certain. I don't care how you're gonna do it, but YOU WILL PAY ME." I heard call in a low voice.

His face was just a finger away from mine, and for certain I could feel his breath fanning against my skin.

"Nia, have you seen-" A voice from nowhere spoke, with Denna stumbling in, freezing at the sight in front of her-- The boy peering intently at me, hovering over my figure, while I remained like a lost puppy begging to be rescued.

His eyes remained fixed on me, and the anger resting there was just too obvious.

"The name's Nia, huh?" He uttered, pronouncing my name carefully.

For some reason, it sounded so soothing to my ears. The way it rolled off his tongue.

“You owe me, Nia”
