Chapter 2
"Why are apartments so expensive nowadays? I can't find any that fits my budget.Why is my pay at my part time so small? I think I need a new job."
I said as I was walking home. I was holding on both of the straps of my backpack while looking down and talking to myself, I'm getting slightly depressed because I don't know where I can find a cheap place to live.
"Haaay... ouch!!!"
Because I was looking down while walking, I didn't realize that there was a telephone pole in front of me and hit it with my head. I backed up bit while holding my aching head.
"This telephone pole doesn't have any respect, say sorry!"
Still massaging my aching head, I saw something that was posted in the telephone pole.

I forgot about the pain my head had and quickly tore the job offer announcement. Yes! This is exactly what I need right now, not only does the salary look good, it also include free weekday bedrooms and food! This job looks good! I didn't think twice, I went straight to 123 Whatever Street, it's not that far so I ran towards there and woooooow...
"What a big house."
I was overwhelmed when I arrived at the address that was in the announcement, the house was very large, it had 3 floors and has a pool and a big garden. The owner of this place must be quite wealthy! Let me ring the bell!
"Sandford residence, who is it?"
Wow, the person that answered is speaking English... Should I answer in English or Tagalog? I'll just answer in Tagalog, it would be embarrassing to answer with wrong grammar.
"Umm. I'm Reah Rodriguez, I was planning to apply as a personal maid if it's still available."
"Oh I see, please enter."
The gate automatically opened after he finished speaking, golly wow this is so cool! I went through the door of the house, an old maid was waiting for me and happily let me in. They told me to follow them, so I did. I was looking around the house while walking. The house is so elegant, it looks like everything in here is very expensive and so shiny like Edward Cullen under the sun. There are also a lot maids that were breathtaking.
"This way."
I just followed the person that welcomed me. I think they'll bring me to the owner of the house. We stopped in front of a door and they knocked.
"Master, someone wants to apply for the young master's maid."
"Let her in."
They opened the door and I went inside. I was greeted by a smiling man that I think is around 45+ years old. He was wearing a business suit and was sitting at a table in the middle of what seems to be a library and at his back was a very big window.
"It's good to know that there is still someone who wants to apply, I just lost the 25th maid I hired."
"Umm.. excuse me, do you speak tagalog?"
I just couldn't do it anymore, everyone has been speaking English in here for a while now, like, hello? We're in the Philippines.
"Hahaha!" He said while laughing, he looks kind.
"I'm sorry, I'm just used to it. You know that you need to speak English for business purposes for other countries. Anyway, you've arrived at the right time hija, the 25th personal maid that I hired just retired."
"Eh? 25th?"
"Hayy. I'll just warn you, the person you'll serve isn't your average person. My son is half human half monster."
I swallowed when I heard him say that. Half monster? My goodness! So that's why the salary they're giving is so high, the person I'm serving is half monster!
"But don't worry, he doesn't bite," he chuckles. "It's just that he's hard to understand and his personality isn't pleasant, because he was spoiled. But my only wish is that, you're the last one to apply. It's exhausting to keep on rehiring new people. I'll give you a deal."
"Yes? Deal?"
"If you last for at least 6 months as my son's maid, you'll receive a 6th month bonus beside you 13th month bonus. As long as you last for 6 months. So, are you gonna take it?"
Wow, two bonuses in a year! Not only is my pay big, my food is free, there's a free bedroom, AND there's a 6th and 13th month bonus!
"Game! I mean, yes sir!" There's no monster in front of a person that likes money!
"That's good. You can start now. Come back later at 4pm. He's still at school. Tomorrow, you can also assist him to school. He attends Willford Academy, do you know that school? Make sure he eats his lunch and he attends his classes."
Oh no! Speaking of school, urgh I forgot about that! How am I suppose to work as a personal maid if I also have classes? Oh gosh! But wait, he also goes to Willford Academy?
"Umm... there's only one problem..."
"That is?"
"I'm a working student. I also go to Willford Academy but by scholar and I also have a part time job but only at nights. I promise, I'll look after him at school and I'll lessen my time at my part time so that I can serve your son straight away! I hope that's okay, please! I really need another job!"
"Really? You also go to Willford? That's great! There's no problem, after you class and part time job, you can go straight to my son. Just do your job well and I hope that you really last a long time for him."
"Thank you! Thank you very much!"
Problem solved! Good thing that he's so nice! But what about his son?
It's now 4pm. I'm becoming really nervous. I'm in front of the entrance of the house and I'm lined up with other maids, I was accepted today and I'm starting today as well. We're all here waiting for the "young master" that I'll be serving. I'm really anxious... all kinds of images are entering my mind. Mr. Sandford said half monster... *gulp* I wonder what kind of monster it is?
A. Monster like Alien vs. Predator
B. Monster like Kokey
C. or Cookie Monster?
Aaaaah! WHAT THE HECK! ALL KINDS OF THINGS ARE ENTERING MY THOUGHTS!
"The master has arrived."
After the sound of the bell, someone spoke and the door opened after he finished speaking. And from the light that was coming outside, I saw the young master...
Everyone bowed, all of their heads were lowered while I was... outSTANDING, I mean, the only one standing!
"What the heck are you doing in my house garbage?!"
MONSTER ALERT. MONSTER ALERT. MONSTER ALERT.
WARNING WARNING. PLEASE EVACUATE IMMEDIATELY!
Stop your thoughts, control your self Eya! Uwaa! Why did it not cross my mind that the last name Sandford is Cross's last name, my classmate that's a model of Bench and a guy that's extremely arrogant that was laughing at me yesterday?
"Hey you, old man! What kind of nonsense is this? I told you I don't want a personal maid or assistant or whatever that always follows me!"
Before my brain could even process the truth that Cross Sandford is the one I'll be serving, I saw myself at Mr. Sandford's workplace with my wrist in pain because Cross dragged me here. Right after he found out from one of their maids why I'm in his house.
"Oh, Cross, my son, you visited your father's workplace. Are you going to kiss me?"
His father stood up and went close to him and was about to kiss Cross's cheek, however Cross blocked his father's lips using his hand and pushed him away.
"Will you stop fooling around? you old toothless fart?!"
WOAH. What did he call is father? He doesn't have any respect!
"Ehem."
His father became serious and went back to his chair. He turned around and looked at the view outside the big window.
"Cross, my son, I'm starting to get tired of your attitude. I understand that you're pressured because of your image at your school but that is not a good reason for you to not respect the people that are working in this house."
"Why do I need to respect them? We pay them, we pay their souls and we have the rights to do whatever we want to them. They're our properties!"
"Hey! You're overdoing it! You're not buying our souls! In your dreams!"
I couldn't keep quiet because of how offending what he said just now!
"Don't interrupt!"
He pushed me with his finger which caused me to move back from where I'm standing.
"How annoying! I'm going out for a while with my friends and when I come back, I want her out of this house!"
"AND YOU!" I was surprised when he pushed me with his finger again.
"E-eh? M-me?" I said while pointing at myself.
"I DONT WANT TO SEE YOUR HORRID FACE AGAIN!"
After saying that, he continued walking out of the room and heavily closed the door. I was left there looking like I got hit by a strong wind. I was shouted and insulted at the same time, the nerve of that guy! I know I'm ugly but is it okay to rub it in my face? Ugh. Cross Sandford, you really are a monster!
That night, after my part time at my Auntie's restaurant, I went straight to the Sandford house, Mr. Sandford told me that he's not going to fire me whatever his son, Cross, says. Don't they say "like father and son"? So why is it different for Cross and his father? His father is so nice while his attitude is very disgusting.
"I'm thristy.."
I said while rubbing my eyes and walking towards the kitchen while the lights at the house were turned off. Only the moonlight that's coming through the big windows of the house are my light source while walking. I grabbed a pitcher from the fridge and put water on a cup. I've fallen asleep waiting for Cross, he didn't come back home. He's such a drama queen. The worst part is my room's next to that cookie monster's room.
"Ughh..."
"W-who's there?"
I was in the middle of drinking when I suddenly hear a quiet groan.
"Ughh... so thirsty..."
After that, I just heard a noise like something fell. I tried to look for it and I saw a monster laying on the ground.
"What happened to you?"
"Water... give me water..."
He suddenly grabbed the cup that I was holding and drank from it. Son of a fish, that was my cup! I was drinking from it! Argh! I even believe in indirect kisses! Infuriating!
"T-That's my cup! You thief!"
I took my cup and stood up, I was about to leave but I looked back and looked at him on the floor.
"Should I leave him?"
I don't think it's right to leave him sleeping on the floor, after all it's my job to take care and serve him which means I need to bring him to his room so he can sleep properly. Why is he even sleeping on the floor? What is he doing? I got close to him and knelt so that I could get his hand and put it on my shoulder so I can prop him up.
"You stink, you smell like alcohol. You drink and drink then you became drunk. What the heck."
I started bringing him to his room that's at the second floor of the house.
"Why are you so heavy? Seriously! It's like I'm carrying a cross! You pig!"
"W-what pig? *hick* I-I'm not a pig, can't you see my abs!"
We're wobbling around and he's saying a lot of random stuff, then he lifted his shirt and showed his... abs. But waaaaw abs! He really has them. Heck. I'm being a pervert. What the heck is wrong with this guy, is it right to show abs? Whoever it is, girls are weak to abs. Even if I'm not that indecent, it still has an effect to me.
"Lower your shirt! I agree that you're not a pig! Just lower your shirt!" if you don't want to be raped
"Hahaha! *hick* How about you, do you have abs? Let me see?"
"H-hey! what are you doing!"
When we arrived at his room, he suddenly lifted my shirt. I quickly pushed him away to his bed when he lifted my shift. He nearly saw my underwear! I was about to turn around when he suddenly pulled me and because of that, I fell next to him.
"Hey, stop it!" I'm pushing him away because he's hugging my arm.
"Let me see your abs first!" then he's trying to lift my shirt.
"I don't have any abs! Wait! Stop!" Me? Having Abs? What the! This is madness. No, this is sparta. Corny.
"I don't believe you *hick*, let me see it first!" he's still trying to lift my shift while I'm trying to pull it down.
"You're so selfish, why aren't you showing it!"
"I said I don't have any abs! You ugly drunkard! Let go of me!"
"Me? Drunk? That's not true*hick*. And I'm ugly? That's also not true, maybe it's you! Hahaha! *hicks*"
"Your behaviour's ugly! Let go of me! I'll kick you!"
"You have a crush on me anyway, right? Because I'm handsome and I also have abs, unlike you that doesn't have abs," what the hell is this drunkard saying?
"Crush your face! Who will have a crush on you? Only abnormal people like you!"
"Sus, you're still denying it. We even look good together. I'm handsome and you're pretty, mwahahaheheihihoho!" Pretty? Who? My foot? Ha?
"I don't know what to do with you, you're abnormal!"
I stood up and was really going to leave but I suddenly felt his hand on my arm and then he suddenly pulled me, so I suddenly looked at him and my face went close to his face. We stared at each other, our faces were near each other, he's smilin so wide and it's like his eyes were shining, maybe from his drunkeness.
"You're so pretty..."
My eyes suddenly became wide because he closed his lips and are stretching up, going near to my lips. Is he going to kiss me? Eh? Here it comes, closer and closer... What should I do? I can smell the alcohol from him, am I also getting drunk from the smell because my brain isn't functioning anymore, I don't know what to do, I'm starting to be petrified. His lips are getting closer and closer, here it comes... here it comes...
ASLKDJAOIDAKLAWDJIO!!!
"You're disgusting!"
I swiftly pushed him away because instead of getting kissed, I was vomited! He threw up on my face all of the sudden! What the! Disgusting! I smell bad! I left his side and started to feel gross at myself. Eew, I'm covered by his vomit! You're very irritating Cross Sandford!
"I hate you Cross Sandford!!!"
I annoyingly said to him and turned around to leave the room but I suddenly stopped when I said something again.
"I love you..."
What? I was surprised from what he said, he loves me? Eh? What kind of nonsense is it this time?
"I love you..."
He said it again. I looked at him in slow motion because I couldn't believe what he's saying. But... Someone stop me, I'll really punch this one.
"I love you Spongebob! I love you, I love you."
He's hugging a pillow -- no, he's not just hugging it, he's kissing it as well. I knew it, he's very drunk! Time to get out of here and so I can take a shower! I really stink! You're annoying as ever Cross Sandford!
AHH!!!!
