His Crazy Maid

He watched over her for some hours and he finally decided to get some sleep also.

He took a pillow and went to lie down on the couch.

He propped the pillow under his head and shut his eyes trying to get some sleep.

**

The next morning…*

Annie woke up due to the sounds being made in the room.

She opened her eyes and looked around.

She saw Larry by the window side making a call.

She rubbed her eyes and sighed.

Gosh.

She stood up and walked to him.

Larry looked back when he heard footsteps behind me and on seeing her, he quickly dismissed the call.

“Hey,”he cooed and turned to her fully.

Annie smiled and seeing her smile, his lips also stretched in one.

He walked over to her and hug her.

“Don’t worry, you are safe with me now..”he mumbled to himself but Annie heard that.

She reciprocate the hug by putting hugging him back fully.

He rested his jaw on her shoulder and closed his eyes.

They stayed like that for some minutes.

Then, Annie finally pulled away from the hug.

She stared at his face and pressed his lips together.

“How.. did you manage to be alive?, what about this scar on your face?”

Larry sighed softly and used his finger to tuck her lose hair behind her ear.

“Do you really want to hear it?”he asked with a raised brow.

Annie scoffed.

“Tell me when I get back from work. If I didn’t want to hear it, I wouldn’t have asked in the first place.”Annie replied.

“Work?”he scoffed.

“Of course.. I’m now working as someone’s PA.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“And why don’t I like the sound of that?. Okay.”Larry frowned and moved away from her slowly.

“Alright, does my going to work sound unpleasant?”she scoffed.

Larry gazed at her before shaking his head slowly.

“At all. You should go on.”he forced a smile

Just thinking about her being with the man is already getting him furious.

But he should try not to be possessive.

Heaven sake!, he hasn’t even asked her out yet and he isn’t ready to do that anytime soon.

His ego just won’t allow him.

“Are you going home or”

“I will go directly from here”Annie replied and paused.

“But, I don’t have any cloth here…”she added and bent her head.

Larry smiled seeing how cute she looks.

Heaven knows how he so much wanted to draw her to himself and….

Gosh, Larry. Control your fucking mind, hun?.

“Don’t worry. I will ask Rose to get some clothes for you.”he said.

Annie looked up at him.

“Rose?, who is Rose?”she asked

“She’s a girl.”he replied.

Annie scoffed loudly and rolled her eyes.

“You must think I’m really stupid. You said Rose, so who else will be Rose if not a female. I only ask the relationship between you both.”

“She’s my uhm… uh…. my…”

“Never mind. You aren’t gonna say that after all.”Annie said with a hint of sadness.

“Just tell me where the restroom is.”she added as she turned around.

**

After getting dressed in one of the cloth gotten for her, she moved out of the room and bumped into Larry.

She smiled.

“How do I look.”

Larry traces his eyes up from her face then down to her legs.

She looked fantastic but, he isn’t gonna say that.

“Why are you asking me that when there’s just enough mirrors in the room.”he replied.

She glared playfully at him.

“You could have tried to be at least nice.”she pouted.

“Do you want me to drop you off at your work?”

“No, thanks.”Annie retorted and walked away without sparing him another glance.

**

“Good morning sir.”Annie greeted as she entered Boyd’s office.

He was going through some files.

He looked up at her

“You came late, little Ann. Hope no problem?”

“Yes sir thanks.”

“Here. I ordered two coffees. I don’t know how you like it your coffee but I hope this get to your taste..”he said handing out a cup.

Annie collected it from him.

“You’re really amazing, sir. This is my first time having a coffee so I don’t really have a ..”

“Real?”Boyd interrupted with a scoff.

“Yes “Annie nodded

“That sound unbelievable!”Boyd scoffed.

“Well, believe it sir.”She smiled.

“I should probably head over to my office now, sir…”

She turned to leave.

But Boyd stopped her.

“Yes?”she asked when she turned around.

“Uh…. Will…. will….”he asked while scratching his neck nervously.

“Will?”

“Uhmm…. so… i… was I was thinking if… you …. can like are you chance tonight??…”

“Tonight?”she asked with a raised brow.

“Yes, uhm, I was thinking if we could both go out. Not for work this time around, to just have fun!.”he smile shyly.

“Are you asking me on a date, Mr Boyd?”

“Well… yeah… so what did you think?. I won’t feel absolutely offended when you turn the offer down, it will…”

“Alright. What time?”Annie asked.

Boyd’s face beamed.

“Are you… is that a yes?. Oh my Gee, thank you. 8:00pm. I will come to pick you up.”

“Okay. I’ll text you my address.”

“Alright. Will text you my address.”

“I know your…”

“I’m staying in an hotel now.”she replied and walked out.

“Hotel, why?”he asked himself.

*

“Yes, mom.. I am staying with a friend. There will be no problem at all, I’m really safe with her.”Annie said on the phone to Rosetta.

“But, why….”

“God, mom. Are we seriously going back again?. We’ve already discussed the reasons before…”Annie said.

She entered the hotel and met Cindy in the receptionist post.

Strangely, she has never seen customers here before.

Just Larry and this girl and the other girl that was dressed always dressed in a white dress.

“I thought you were gone. What are you doing here again?”Cindy asked.

Annie frowned.

“I’ll call you back, mom”she said and ended the call.

“Nope. Do you have any problem with that?. Is it frustrating you or strangling you?. Die if you wanna die cause I’m not leaving here anytime soon.”Annie said angrily and walked away leaving Cindy fuming in anger.

Who are these girls exactly.

She headed to the room and when she got there, she opened the door and walked in.

She didn’t met Larry inside but she saw a small note on the bed.

She walked towards it.

*In the bathing house.*

She threw the paper away and stomped out.

She collided into Rose and quickly apologized to her.

“Sorry. Please, where’s the bathing house?”

“Larry is bathing there, why?”she replied with a frown.

“Of course, I know. Then why else will I ask of it if not because I want to see him, you bimbo.”Annie replied with the same frown Rose passed on her.

Rose described the place for her and Annie rolled her eyes and headed towards there.

She got there and opened it.

She walked in.

The place was just set like swimming pool but the difference there is the water.. the water inside this one is warm just like you’re bathing.

But it looks awesome.

She sighted Larry from afar.

He was inside the warm water and just eyes were shut.

The water covered half of his whole body.

Only his head was showing.

“Hey,”she breathed out.

Larry’s eyes snapped open and he sighed when he saw her.

“You’re back.”he said and brushed his wet hair back.

Annie nodded.

“So, you said you were here and how is that suppose to concern me?”she asked.

Larry looked at her and scoffed.

“If it didn’t concern you then why the hell are you here?”

Annie nibbed at her bottom lip and let’s out a wry smile.

“I came not because I was concerned but because I was concerned.”she replied.

Larry looked at her.

“What?.”

“Crazy ma’am!”he laughed.

Annie smiled out..

He really looks really really cute when he’s really really laughing.

Larry controlled himself and stopped laughing.

“What?, you look cute when you laugh, so laugh!.”Annie said.

Larry busted into another round of laughter.

What’s she doing to him?.

Seriously?!.

“You’re just crazy!”he laughed that his laughter echoed the whole room.

Then, Annie joined in the laughter and their voices both made a perfect and nice music to the ears.

Annie stopped laughing and looked at him.

“Alright, that’s probably enough. Why are you laughing?”

“You triggered my laughter, you made me laugh!”

“Ha – ha, ha – ha!. He said I made him laugh, hear that?”Annie laughed.

“I swear, you’re really crazy, Annie!”

Rose entered and her eyes reddened in jealousy when she saw how they were both laughing.

Larry stopped laughing immediately he saw her.

Annie also stopped and turned to look at her.

“Did I interrupt your sweet moment?”she asked sarcastically staring at Annie.

She turned to Larry.

“I just came to remind…”

“I know, you don’t need to remind me. You can go.”

She nodded deeply hurt and turned to leave.

She walked to the door and as she held the door knob, Larry words stopped her.

“And call me Rico.”he said.

She walked out.

“Rico?”Annie almost shouted with widened eyes.
