"Sophia, your presence is requested at the king's chamber,"
Diva a co palace maid announced as she entered the staff quarter.
"What? Why? It's way past twelve already," Sophia complained not wanting to leave her bed, it was still her day off and she is supposed to resume duty by eight in the morning.
"I don't know but I envy you a lot,"
Diva said laying on her bed, she took off her shoes and jacket.
"Why? I am called to go see the king, at after twelve in the middle of the night and you are envious? what's there to envy?"
She asked not understanding her, why will her working extra time be something to envy? She would give anything not to go tend to the king right now, was the king purposely overworking her because she was foreign? That would explain a lot.
"Whatever just go see the king, you can't keep him waiting, run along,"
She replied, Sophia shook her head as she exited the room and walked the distance to the main palace, the palace is a huge mansion with over Fifty rooms and big gardens, event centers, the throne room, a museum, and lots more, in her two years of working at the palace, she still didn't know all parts of it, she still gets lost sometimes, which is why she chooses not to go to areas where she wasn't familiar with. When she got to the entrance of the king's room, the bodyguard told her the king was in his inner chamber and that he was heavily drunk, she understood the assignment immediately and quickly ran to get fresh water and a towel, earlier the king had hosted some important people and that will explain why he was drunk.
"Attend to a drunk king after midnight, my life is hell,"
She mouthed to herself as she entered the king's chamber and closed her nose as the smell of vomit mixed with alcohol visited her, she looked to see the king laying halfway on the bed and murmuring stuff she couldn't quite make out.
"Your majesty, I am here to help you clean up," She said announcing her presence as she walked up to him, he looked up at her and smiled before dropping his head back down, without much words she help him take off his robe and socks, before trying to take him to the bathroom so that he could clean up, it took a long difficult thirty minutes before she could get him to clean up, all the while she was cursing her bad luck, why does he always call her when he is messy? This wasn't the first time, he had called her when he was drunk, out of over one hundred Palace workers and over thirty working as the king's help, he almost always asked for her, obviously, he had a kind of dislike for her and wants to overwork her knowing she can't quit, she had nowhere to go "He is out to get me,"
