Chapter 5
What the! Why is your coffee so bitter?" He complained.
I just got a bruise on my forehead because of the misfortune I made that day. Myghad Alieson! It's just coffee! Bullshits!
I'm sorry Sir, I don't know how to make coffee," I admit.
It's just a coffee, you don't know how to brew it yet. What's the use of you working as my maid, I don't think you can do it well just by brewing coffee."
His voice sounded annoyed, he pushed his mug down on the table and left. Hays!
That man was really rude, maybe when his mother made him pregnant he conceived it out of resentment so that became the habit. I didn't complain even though I poured the coffee right in front of me.
Hey! Yaji Figueroa, thank you and I seasoned you with coffee even though it tastes bad, rather than nothing. Tsk!
I rushed to the bedroom to change my clothes, because I smelled of coffee and was also attached to the thief. That bw*sit is really rude, it's good that Manang and I endured that kind of behavior.
My good sleep was disturbed by a series of knocks on my door, I was not on my own to wake up in bed to open it.
Alieson, I'm sorry sister. Lily and I are leaving now to go to the market, can you just cook Yaji's breakfast now? Even if it's just a fried hotdog and eggs, you can heat him up with bread and coffee because" that's what he always eats in the morning, "Manang Lena gave a long order that I immediately accepted.
I closed the door again and fell asleep on the bed.
The next morning I woke up early to take a shower, maybe later because the work would pile up again. It's hard to take a bath when my body is tired and I might even faint.
When it was over, I went to the kitchen to help cook breakfast.
"Manang? Lily?" I called them, but not one of them answered.
Where are they? Why is no one here in the kitchen? Did he leave
My brain didn't finish what I wanted to say because I suddenly remembered that they were still shopping Manang.
Dead! He even instructed me to cook breakfast for Sir Yaji, but I didn't say that I didn't know how to cook. I fell down and sat on the chair, this was supposed to be my last day in this house. Hays! Kainiss!
Since I had no choice, I just fried a hotdog and an egg, I also mixed Sir's coffee and heated the bread. I feel like a fool now, there is a casserole at the top of my head, the lid of the casserole is in my left hand to serve as my shield against the of oil and the tong is on the right. It's like I'm constantly at war with oil! Letche!
When I finished cooking, I bravely served it on my dining table where Sir Yaji was already there.
His good mood this morning was replaced by a frightening aura when he saw the food served on the table, he immediately stood up in his chair and his eyes glazed over at me.
"Can you still call that food?" At the same time point to the food on the table.
I think I cooked the hotdog and then the egg, almost as burnt as it was so black.
I just kept quiet, I admit that I was wrong. Are you going to cook fire food, let me see if you won't get angry.
You only cook simple food, you don't know yet. I can't believe you've been a maid here, even though you don't know how to cook. I'm so disappointed!" His jaw tightened as he said and then you loosened his tie.
Unfortunately for me, I had a sermon yesterday and this morning I had another sermon.
"Yaji, what happened and is your voice reaching out?" Manang asked in astonishment, and the two of us looked around.
"Because of our new maid! Get Ate Flor's replacement, but it's a mistake to cook!" Its a firm promise.
I’m just bent over now and holding back the tears that earlier wanted to drip. The real difficulty is when you are softhearted, the feeling that you are just being told but it hurts right away on your part.
Honestly, I don't waste food. Why don't you just eat the food you cooked for me."
Yaji!" Manang disobeyed him.
Its jaw just continued to tense before finally leaving. Manang caressed my back to somehow lighten my spirits. If I only knew that this would be my boss, I wish I hadn't worked anymore. My tears kept falling so Lily immediately hugged me.
Alieson, are you okay?" Lily asked worriedly.
We are on the veranda now resting because we just finished cleaning, I can't even see but I feel my eyes are swollen with tears earlier.
I smiled and looked at Lily then nodded.
Excuse me Sir Yaji, that's how he really speaks. Is it direct to the point, but that's nice."
I sighed. "I'm fine Lily, it's my fault too. Anyone will be really angry when your food is served on the fire, especially since you're really hungry."
I understand why Sir suddenly got angry with me, I was just shocked before and maybe I'm just changing. I can't even remember the last time Daddy scolded me and that's how I reacted then.
It's like the depth of what you're thinking, so I thought until now you're still taking to heart what Sir Yaji told you, earlier," he said.
I don't have that anymore, I just miss Mom," I said sadly.
In the past, when Daddy scolded me, Mom was always there to stop me from crying and soothe me. Mom had trained me so much in her attention that now, I miss her.
"I don't have a problem with Alieson, as long as you come back right away," Manang Lena whispered.
I first said goodbye to Manang Lena that I could take my day off for at least one day and thankfully she agreed.
"Yes Manang, I'll be right back," I said with a smile.
Nothing can match the joy I feel now, I miss Mom so much and I will finally see her. My day-off is still tomorrow but I'm just now excited.
Because I was so excited, I woke up early in the morning, I took a bath first and then I got dressed. I just wore highwaist denim shorts and my top was a simple black tank croptop shirt that I also just wore yellow oversized checkered.
I looked at my whole being in the mirror after I got dressed, I just put a little powder, chick tint and lip tint to make me look blooming.
I'm ready! I left the room to say goodbye to Manang Lena and Lily.
"It's sexy," Lily praised me and I immediately smiled.
Bolera! Manang, I'm leaving," I let Manang Lena know.
"Be careful sister."
Lily and I hugged them first, before I decided to leave. I was about to walk out the door when I met Sir Yaji, who had obviously just finished jogging.
"Good Morning Sir, 'I greeted him.
He did not greet me back but just looked at me from head to toe and then went straight into the house.
I just didn't pay attention to his to me. I'll see Mom now, so I should be in a good mood. As I walked out of the subdivision I was thinking about what kind of greeting I would give Mom, and right there was a jollibee in front of the Royal Villa.
After I took-out I immediately boarded a taxi. The flight was only an hour so I got there early, as soon as I entered the alley I saw Mom immediately.
"Mom!" I immediately ran to him and was greeted with a hug.
He was even surprised when I suddenly hugged him, and he immediately returned to his judgment.
"Jusko! Alieson, you are!" It said happily between our hugs.
I let go of the hug and smiled looking at him. "Mom, I really miss you. I brought some food here, come on."
We entered the house before I laid my welcome jollibee on the table.
"Come home, I hope you said so and I followed you sister," said Mom.
Not anymore Mom, I plan to surprise you," I replied with a smile.
How's your work there? Are they nice to you?" Suddenly its a question.
I don't know what to say to Mom, there's nothing as bad as Manang Lena and Lily except for my rude boss.
Of course." I tried to smile.
It's okay, but it took you a while to answer."
Even so, he noticed. Hays! For me, even with Sir Yaji's attitude, I can still be patient because I need money to find my parents. But now that I'm here with Mom, I don't want to go back there.
Mom, don't worry about me. I have a good job there and my boss is okay, don't think about me. Let's just eat."
Mom nodded as if she was convinced by my answer. I will also leave there when I find my parents, but for now I have to suffer first.
