The billionaire’s Maid

Davina’s POV

  “Why does my life keep falling apart?” I asked trying so hard to stop the tears from rolling down. It’s just as if nothing is working for me, first was dad loosing his job with practically  no savings, now I’m at the verge of dropping out of school cause I basically can’t afford my school fees and this is my fucking finals. Like why now!!!! Why is life so unfair to me?” I asked sobbing heavily.

 “Girl you need to get yourself together” my Best friend Ash says. We still have like six months before your final exams by then we would saved up enough money to sort it out”.

 “How is that even possible? I don’t even have a job, where do I get the money from?”

 “We can start now by searching for job vacancies around, we’ll definitely get one. A friend once told me about this site that posts job vacancies, let me check it out and see what they have”.

 “What would I have done without you? I leaned on her”. After about one hour of us checking and applying for so many jobs on the sites, Ash finally saw one with a sensible though suspicious pay.

 “What’s the job about?” I asked

 “Uhmm it’s says “A live in maid needed, aged between twenty to thirty and must not be married or have kids”.

That’s a weird criteria” she added.

 “What’s the pay?”

 “Ten thousand grand”

 “Isn’t that too much for a maid?”

 “It is , I’m wondering if the person to be taken care of is a special care patient. And the publisher didn’t say anything about him or herself”.

 “Can I see it, let me see how to apply. It says fill in your details then we give you call to tell you if you qualified for an interview. I did so without hesitation and submitted. I wonder if I’d get anyone” I said not so sure about myself.

“You got this baby girl” Ash said assuring me.

  Ashley has being my best friend from junior high school and we’ve come a long way together attend the same college although different major and have being roommates since we got into college. We got tired of searching for work, had dinner and slept. Another new day, still feeling like the world has turned their back on me. It’s a Saturday and honestly all I want to do is sleep in. I heard my phone buzz checked it and it was a message from an unknown number.

“This is to inform you that you’re eligible to be interviewed for the position of a live in maid”.

 Time 12 O’ Clock PM Venue 2 Durkin street ”

 I was so excited that I didn’t even notice when I screamed, Ash came running in

 “Girl are you okay?”

 “Yeah I’m good, sorry for scaring you”.

 “Okay but why did you scream so early in the morning” I showed her the message I got

 “Girl!!!!!! I’m happy for you and I hope I get the job, I know you will”.

 “Thanks Ash. I don’t know what I’d have done without you”.

 “Nothing babe, absolutely nothing she said and we laughed, now we have to get you ready cause you look like a mess”.

 “Ash please help me find something to wear, I need to take a shower and wash my hair”.

 “Sure, no problem, be fast about it though”. “I will”, I got into the shower, got off my pajamas and let the cold water pour down from my head to toe, it was saw refreshing. I washed my hair, had a proper shower, dried my hair and got out. Ash helped me get an off white blouse, peach long skirt and stiletto.

 “Thanks Ash, I love you”. “You’re welcome girl, now go get that that job”.

 “I definitely wil”l. I styled my hair, wore a light makeup up, got dressed and left. It was a thirty minutes drive and throughout that time I was lost in my thoughts, I’ve never being to a job interview and I don’t even know the basics, gosh!! I’m doomed......

 “Ma’m we’re here” the driver said interrupting my thoughts.

 “Ok, thanks”. I paid him and walked away. I was standing in front gigantic mansion, honestly I’ve only seen such buildings in movies, I checked my watch and saw that I was thirty minutes early. I contemplated if I should go inside or hang around till at least five minutes to the time. I finally decided to go inside. I met a man who looked like he was in his forties at the entrance, I introduced myself, we exchanged pleasantries and he led me into the building. The interior designs are magnificent, everything looks like they’re made of gold and diamonds.

 “Please sit here and wait, someone will be with you shortly”. He politely said as he went back to the entrance of the building.

 I saw a young lady around my age come out of a room and behind her was an elegant six feet tall brown skinned young lady, her height was intimidating yet beautiful, her skin so smooth and fresh like it has never being outside the sun, her brown eyes were captivating, she definitely looked like and Instagram model.

 “Hi. I believe you’re Davina Dalton?” She asked.
